The information on this page is incomplete and may not be of much use.
If you can, please help by adding to it.
the Profile screen (old screenshot)

The Profile section contains various settings which change the behaviour and appearance of Anidb. So you should have a look at the settings after registering and from time to time after that as new features get added once ina while you might miss out otherwise ;)

Tabs

CSS

AniDB hosts some custom stylesheets for your viewing pleasure, to see them you just need to go to your profile ( on AniDB) and select the one you wish to use using the NEXT and PREV buttons to see a thumbnail, optionally you can view a screenshot of the style by clicking the link below the thumbnail. When you are happy with one style just click apply.

If you created your own style for AniDB and want to share it with everyone else please send a PM to deridiot @ AniDB
You might also want to periodically check AniDB:Markup DEV for a list of the latest AniDB changes with CSS implications.

The sourcecode of all release versions of the CSS styles listed on this page is available via SVN.
By HTTP: http://dev.anidb.net/websvn/
The sourcecode has migrated to Git. See AniDB:CSS Dev on details to obtain a copy.

Note If you are using a custom CSS stylesheet please make sure you are basing your work on some current available stylesheet and test to see if the images you are using are still in use after each AniDB release.

Further pages of interest, if you plan to create your own AniDB Style:


General

Default Languages

Account

Set AniDB Password

Use those options to change your password and/or Email for your AniDB account.

Note: If you change your email address a new activation email will be sent to your new address and your account will be disabled until you click the link in the activation email.

Set Guest Password

This is the password needed to gain access to usergroup Password and its access right on your animelist.

Note: The password may not be empty!
A value of "none" disables password access to your animelist.

Once you set a password and gave some access permissions to the group Password on the "Permissions" tab, you can give the url which is shown below the password field to other people to allow them access to the specified actions/infos of your animelist.

Set API Key

This key is used for encrypted communication with the UDP API. It is required for avdump.

Set Master Account

By setting a master account you can link your mylist to that of another anidb user. This means that you will see that users mylist as if it were your own.

Note: You will not be able to access your own mylist while a master account is set and you will not be able to modify the other user's mylist. I.e. you can't add or remove any files to/from mylist and you can't mark anything watched/unwatched (this might change in the future).

The user you specify will be notified of your request and will have to grant it before this setting has any effect.

Permissions

Here you can specify who may view your anime list and under which conditions. There are different actions you may allow for four different user groups. I.e. you can use this to hide your anime list from all or only from some other users or you can give external people access to your anime list.

Restrictions


The following restictions are possible:
