View source for Profile

__NOTOC__
Each Resident has their own Profile Window, which they can fill in with information about themselves. You can thus consult someone's Profile Window in order to find out more about them, and fill in your own in order to inform people about who you are.
==Opening a Resident's Profile Window==
If the [[Resident]] is near you, double-click on their Avatar to open the [[Avatar Pie Menu]], and select "Profile".

If the [[Resident]] is far from you, or offline, there are several ways to open their Profile Window:
*If the Resident is your [[Friend]]: open the Friends Tab of the [[Contacts Window]] (for how to do this, see [[Contacts Window]]), and double-click on the Friend's name
*If you have the [[Calling Card]] of the Resident in your [[Inventory]]: double-click on the Calling Card to open the Resident's Profile Window, or right-click on the Calling Card and '''select "Profile" in the drop-down menu'''
*If the Resident belongs to a [[Group]] that you belong to: click on the [[Communicate Button]] to open the [[Contacts Window]], select the Groups Tab, select the name of the Group, press the "Info" button to open the [[Group Information Window]], find the Resident's name in the list of members, and double-click on it
*If none of the above apply, type the Resident's name into the People tab of the [[Search]] window, and click on their name in the list of search results

You can also click on someone's name in [[Chat]] history to open their Profile.

==Opening your own Profile Window==
There are several ways to open your own Profile Window:
*In the menus: select [[Edit Menu]] > Profile
*Double-click on your Avatar to open your own [[Avatar Pie Menu]], and select "Profile"
