Okay I've done it for you and created the userbox :). The trick is to create the filename first and then put it in. If you were confused about how to use the "usbk" table, have a look at this section in edit. --One Salient Oversight 23:51, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

List of colours
If anyone would like to use colours apart from the standard, go to List of colors where you will be able to copy and paste the Hex triplets into your id and info boxes.
Examples:
#7BA05B - This colour is Asparagus.
#3D2B1F - This colour is Bistre.
#8A3324 - This colour is Burnt Umber
This userbox was nominated for speedy deletion by a user because it said "threatened by YOUR firearms" (offensive/divisive). The speedy deletion was knocked back by an admin, but I've changed the line to be less controversial anyway since I don't wish to get into a war over this.
This userbox uses a parameter for passing the highest rank held by the cadet to be displayed on the right side (id2). Please note that the actual usage is demonstrated in Template:User NCC.
I also noticed that the "what links here" does not link does not translate to the real results for this userbox. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Whatlinkshere/Template:User_NCC shows at least 2 pages linking to the above.
However, if I use ((usbk|Template:User_NCC)) then the userbox is not properly displayed in this page...
Any suggestions? --Deepraj 16:09, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
It was ((usbk|Template:User NCC)). You_don't_need_to_put_the_underscore_in. --One Salient Oversight 04:16, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for the clarification, OSO. --Deepraj 08:37, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
Awesome! These are my first attempts at userboxes

They look great. Remember to use .svg files if at all possible. --One Salient Oversight 07:08, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
For the toxic gas one I would suggest you either change the font colour or the info-c colour. White and blue letters on a green background is hard to read. You can bold the white font or increase the font size to make it stand out more. --One Salient Oversight 07:16, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
I realised there were no userboxes so shareholder Wikipedians could express that part of their life. Just insert your stock symbol in place of the (({1))}!

Here's another one; I seem to be developing a healthy addiction to making userboxes :)
I figured out how to code in variables Oversight! You just put '''(({1))}''' for the first variable, '''(({2))}''' for the second, and so on.

This userbox was created as a balancing alternative to a rather controversial userbox that promotes the closure of one of Australia's largest export industries for no obvious reason. This userbox reflects what the Stern Report had to say about the continued use of coal for power generation. --Athol Mullen 13:14, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
Here's one that everyone can use! That's why I didn't assign a category to it (that, and the fact that I don't know how!) MichaelHenley (Page-Talk-Contribs) 00:12, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
I created a userbox for socialists believeing in the peaceful form, where a peaceful turn to socialism leads to government-owned businesses as well as all public benefits (food, shelter, healthcare, etc.) being given without pay!
Enjoy! - PGSONIC 20:46, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

You really need a comma after the word “socialist,” and after the word “communism,” but it rocks! Peace. (MuzikJunky 05:27, 22 May 2007 (UTC))
An advanced userbox with parameters and ParserFunctions. Please go to User:The Userboxer/Userboxes/Attends for more information, documentation and examples.
This userbox uses a parameter for passing the year of graduation for the user to be displayed on the right side (id2). Please note that the actual usage is demonstrated in Template:User AECian. The target audience for the box are graduates from Assam Engineering College.
I didn't really want any userboxes, but WP:ADOPT suggested I should have one, so I figured I'd also create one describing the state of affairs. -- intgr#%@! 16:04, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
My first try at a userbox. How do I change the font on the link after the link is visited? Sorry I've got the formatting wrong.

Eurosceptic: For anyone who is bemused, this says that I am culturally pro-European, but I'm opposed to deepening the integration of the European Union. I won't elaborate, for fear of being accused of being polemical!
MusicLover: I nicked the clef from a userbox by Steinbach and I re-implemented the design with the Userbox template.
Cycling: I nicked the first bicycle from a userbox by DrFrench and I re-implemented the design with the Userbox template. Rubywine 05:54, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
It's been a while, but I got inspiration from a string of bacon-related vandalism. Also, 3 cheers for the new standardized format! --LuigiManiac 04:51, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
For those of us with more refined palates, or just living in Eastern Europe, the Kvass userbox. First one, I'll certainly get better at this. Remoc 18:04, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
