    You can now enter your Xbox Live Gamertags and Steam Profile URL's (not necessarily the same as your account name) under forum actions -> edit profile

    And they'll then appear under your avatar/post count as mine do, linking prospective friends and fellow gamers to your profiles so they can message/friend and the like.

    Enjoy :)

    Awesome! More ways for me to stalk...I mean communicate with others.

    Oh, and Grey, you should totally remove the white bag around Rarity, so it looks like she's peering into the forums.

    Nice addition, but "Y U NO ADD PS3?"

    Well, just, where is the PSN section?

    :dunno:

    I like the new addition by the way.

    Because as far as I can tell PSN's website only uses agonisingly long ID's to access profiles (you wouldn't want that in your postbit!), I don't actually have a ps3 though, so if someone who can log into psn on a pc could confirm this that'd be awesome... :)

    Glad you all like it anyway!

    Mike, I don't understand about the bag!? D:

    EDIT: DRD, PLEASE, don't mess around with them -.-'
    I can and will remove the privilege from your account... So Behave! ;D

    I'll look into ps3 a bit more

    Edit out the white bit around Rarity, so that it looks like she's making a hole in the forum :derpe:

    Your avatar. Isn't that the scene where Rarity looks inside Sweetie Belle's saddlebag? I was thinking that if you remove it, it would look like Rarity is peering into the forums. :derpe:

    I see..
    Anyways..
    https://secure.eu.playstation.com/psn/profile/CeZ-321/ <- This would work except for the fact that it redirects me to registration, despite being logged in? And yes, the address is valid. So I'm at a loss as to how you can access PSN profiles. XBL > PSN. Just saying :p

    I think it has to be activated on a active Ps3 Gray
    Sort of how it shows your XBL accounts on their website
    It shows our PSN accounts on Playstations website so im guessing if your account isn't logged in on a Ps3 you get no account access on the Playstation website

    It's active on a PSP..? If anyone can confirm that a link like mine above usually allows users to view a profile online..? I'll happily implement ps3.

    Try this: http://us.playstation.com/publictrophy/index.htm?onlinename=CeZ-321/

    Fill in any PSN name after the "onlinename=" and it will go to their respective profile. It's not their main profile page, but it's the closest thing I could find.

    I'll behave. :derpe:

    Just want more fun. ;D

    Anyways, to answer your question if it hasn't been answered yet. You can connect to PSN on a PC. Well from Sony's website IIRC.

    Seems legit.

    Also for the Steam, I thought it was going to be the Steam ID that we use to login. I guess I'll have to put "twidashismyship" because that's my actual steam address... >.>

    :derpe:

    I'm confused, if you don't put in the Steam ID, then what do you use?

    Go to your profile, just like mine, but on the browser and check the address.

    [noparse]http://steamcommunity.com/id/[/noparse]twidashismyship

    That's what you put in that box in the options.

    You'll probably have a random set of numbers.
