Hey, folks, is there some way to make a particular Profile Pick stay on top of the pile? So it's always first?

Thank you, clever people! You are the best!

Hi Aeble ... I think if you number them. 1. 2. 3. ... this is what I've seen in other's picks.

Using any non-alpha characters will do it...I think I use **. I haven't changed my Picks in a long time and I don't remember for sure. lol

I am bumping you to an 8.5 on the Official Trout Measuring Instrument of Sluttiness. You are an enigma - on the one hand a sweet, gentle, intelligent woman who we would like to wrap up in our arms and protect, and on the other, a temptress to whom we would like to do all sorts of unmentionable things.

Congratulations and shame on you! You are a bit of a slut.

I use an aupper ASCii series of number characters in mine. Ends up looking pretty sharp, really.

As far as the regular special characters on the keyboard, the ! (exclamation mark) is the highest in collating sequence (actually the space is, but SL seems to compress spaces out of a lot of things, so I use the ! symbol for things I want at the top). Then you can also get some neat looking characters via other ascii values which you can enter using the 'alt' key followed by a number. i.e. the 'alt' key followed by a '3' will give a little heart (which is how I got the little hearts in my sig). The special characters will sort before the ! mark even.

ETA: This page shows the ascii value for different symbols -- the second chart shows the heart and smiley faces and such.
