You might notice that the Wallace & Gromit site has had a bit of a spruce and now includes personal profiles and buddies!

What does this mean?
Visit http://www.wallaceandgromit.com/user/profile and you can fill in lots of new bits of information about yourself and personalise your own page!

(You can view my profile here)

Buddies
You also have the opportunity to add buddies that you have made while using the site - simply click on the name of the person you want to buddy-up with, and click “add buddy” when you visit their profile! Any buddies you made on Shaun the Sheep will also be added too!

Don’t want to take part?
You can turn off buddy requests by visiting your profile at any time: http://www.wallaceandgromit.com/user/profile

I hope you like the new features – let us know your thoughts below!

Finally! Although this is good, socially, I can't help thinking that it is more to please shaun users. Is there a way to block buddy requests if we no longer wish to receive them? Having said that, It is well executed

omg like i am glad this site is working today

Thanks for the feedback guys (sorry about the little glitch yesterday, we spilled tea on some important internet cables )

GLB - hope you enjoy the new features. We thought it was about time that W&G had the same functions as Shaun, seeing as a lot of you use both sites. Plus it's a way to show off all the hard work you put into creations and writing posts for the forums. Edit your profile and you can turn off buddy requests if you don't want them.

this is cool aardman you rock

katie i cannot post on the forum called genral chat

kld - well spotted, should be working again now

I hope this is not a silly question - how do I accept buddy requests? I was looking for something to click... as I do not want to appear that I'm ignoring my friends by not stating my preference one way or another...

OOOOOOhhhh, it's GOOOOOOOOOOOOD to be back!

Yours swimmingly

sockeye it is near the buddies online

Sockeye! Long time no see/read!!!!
Just click on the text saying that you have buddy requests. It will pop up with all the people who have requested and just press accept

Great to see you!!!!

i've just been sorting mine out, i love it!

It's great to see you, too, old pals Oh, how I missed you all. Thank you very much and kindly for all your help!

I won't insult you with those dog-ate-my-homework excuses, except to say they concern mostly health matters.

We have sooooo much to catch up on, haven't we?

Back with a splash, folks!

PS: It was in my local paper that Uncle Joe's Mintballs made their two BILLIONTH mintball. Unfortunately, they won't post it off to me because it will end up in Wigan Museum!

Yours as ever!

Coool!
I have already had a few requests.

Me too, but how do you except them?

lad probably asking an easy question lol........

In the top right corner, click buddy requests if there is one or more on it, then click on accept under there name if you want to add them.

It shows up their picture, but no accept button.....
