How do I enter a status for myself? Help please!

Hover over the spot that tells you how many of your friends are online. The dropdown menu should have your status in the second line. Click it, enter what you want for your status, and press ok.

I did that but there is no second line.

nm, I figured it out. Thanks!!

I changed it but it's not showing when I hover over my login name.

It might take a little while for your status to register before showing up when you hover over your login name. Maybe give it 15 minutes to a half hour?

Did you click the ok that appears in the little box?

Yes, I did. It changed it there but not when I hover over my user name
