Hey everyone :)! I finally decided to apply for the Design Team (wish me luck aha) but I seem to have a problem. I have filled out all the appropriate fields in the application and then when I click on Send Application I get a pop up dialog box saying:

Warning:

There is bad characters found in About Me:

I seem to be very confused and have re read the about me and even changed it, no bad characters at all! Anyone know what's wrong? Please let me know :).

Hmmm, I don't think they wouldn't allow punctuation though.

Hehe, no no no, it doesn't say "Bad characters found in About Me:"

It says

Bad Characters found in...

About Me :

The colon after "About Me" is the bad character ;). I changed the form just now by adding another space in between, so hopefully it's a bit more clear for others.

Do you have any colon ( : ) characters in your about me field? If so, remove them and try one more time.

Hmm very odd, I have none at all. I only used appropriate words and commas, periods, exclamation mark and a smiley ---> :). That's it....
