=Userboxes= Presenting the latest in Userbox technology, here is the list of all updated userboxes. Content was mostly copied from the old awards-style templates, but some have new colours. SPEAKING OF WHICH I'll probably have to simplify the colours of some userboxes as they don't look so nice when stacked up with other boxes IMO.

What are they?
Templates are a simple way to insert content in to an article without having to use a lot of Wiki markup. They are most often used for complex things like navigation boxes at the foot of articles, of fancy infoboxes.
 * Templates are stored in the Template namespace e.g. Template:Captain's Log
 * When a template is updated, the changes are rolled out everywhere the template is used
 * They can make use of variables, to insert information in specified places in the template.

How do I use one?
Inserting a template in to an article varies according to the template being used.
 * For a simple template without any parameters, you use the code  
 * If a template has named parameters, you use the code  
 * Spaces are not needed between parameters, but can help make the template more readable to editors
 * In the template code, named parameters appear as  . Text you enter for that parameter will be inserted in its place.
 * If the template doesn't have named parameters, any text placed after a vertical pipe |  is treated as a numbered parameter:  
 * In the template code, numbered parameters appear as  . Each subsequent pipe adds a new numbered parameter.

Be careful with pipes
Any vertical pipes placed within the template braces   will be interpreted as the start of a new parameter. If you need to insert a pipe as part of a parameter's content, use: !

WAT
I have another plan in mind for this - as you can tell, this first idea didn't work out too well :(
