You could use a table to add multiple images. I believe the limit is 5.

More info here [x]

As for an app I just did a quick google search and it doesn't look like there is one.

Thank you for the help!

Few questions! The add 1-3 images in shop are sold out. Will they ever be restocked or can I add images to my sig now without having to buy? ;-;
Is there an app I can use to be able to view the forums from my iPhone and do they give notifications when you get a PM/VM?

Pretty sure they're sold out because they were deemed irrelevant and pointless in the grand scheme of things.

This has probably been asked before, but there's over 160 pages and I can't really go through 163 pages to find the answer.
What exactly is the "shop" thing on the user profiles? I've seen people have things like "perfect pears" in there, and I'm a bit confused about what their purpose is, how you use the shop (which might be the same as the purpose) and how you add things to your "shop".
Thank you for taking the time to answer.

The 'Shop' tab houses your active collectibles. You can buy collectibles in the Shop (the one on the main bar, not the user profile one) or in the TBT Marketplace.

It's a more detailed version of the item/collectible list under someones information when they post. Pretty much it's just showing you what is in their public inventory and descriptions of the items.

Hi! How does the ABD (in the shop) works?

It doesn't rip

There's 2 small card pixels or that's what they look like to me next to the report button on one of my posts. What does this mean?

Hi! How does the ABD (in the shop) works?

Like in the game, it stores money. If you want to save up some of your forum Bells or simply hide them, you can put them in the ABD. Just type in the number you want to store on the 'Deposit Funds' line and hit 'Save'. If you want to take out Bells, do the same thing but on the 'Withdraw Funds' line.

How do I add a profile picture?

How do I add a profile picture?

Click the settings tab at the top of the page and hit the "Edit Avatar" option on the left sidebar. You'll have the option to pick from a ton of our pre-made avatars or you can upload your own.

It means you received a warning or infraction for the post, but the mods/admins didn't delete the post.

Thanks! Also, what are all the types of cash/money on this site? I know about ACNL money, (bells) and TBT. But how many others are there? And how to I earn/spend them?

There's just in-game/AC:NL bells & TBT bells (also known as BTB). Check out these threads:

It doesnt

when you edit a post it recalculates the amount of bells you earn to give you the correct amount.

eg: - you write 2 paragraphs and earn 10 tbt bells.
- you later decide one of those paragraphs is pointless so you delete it.
- you lose those 10 tbt bells.
- however, when you save the post with the one paragraph, it recalculates as if it were a new post, and you gain the amount of bells depending on the post length, which for arguments sake we will say is 5 tbt bells. so you only lost 5 tbt bells because you dramatically shortened your original post.

you really only lose bells if you shorten your original post. If you lengthen it you'll gain more bells, until you reach the cut off, where you wont lose nor gain any.

-----

i just edited this post and included an additional period.

red is the amount of bells for my first post
blue is the bells i lost from editing this post (because the forum temporary reads it as deleted when you edit)
green is the amount i gained from the recalculation - as i simply added a period i didn't actually gian anything, i just got the original amount of bells back. if i had added a lot more to this post, then the number would be greater than 7, and subsequently if i were to delete some of it, the number would be lower than 7, because its recalculating to give me the correct value of my new post.

of course, with the addition of this edit, i'm gaining more bells since my post is being lengthened, which you can see in the image below. it's all from this post, I didn't actually lose anything, in fact, I gained ~3 bells so..
