### Join Message

A join message announces you when you first log in.&#x20;

Use /**joinmessage** to open the window. Click on the left block or right block to select the join message category (and join message) you want to equip. Make sure it's unlocked! Additional pages of messages can be accessed by clicking on the white arrow.

To remove a join message, click the white \[ **−** ] button at the bottom of the main /joinmessage screen.

### Name Gradients and Colors

Change your name color in chat by doing /**nick** or /**nickname** or /**nickgradient** or /**gradient**.&#x20;

|                                                                     |                                                                     |

If you are a [Dragon rank](/mineseed/store/premium-ranks.md), you can also customize your prefix title \[ᴅʀᴀɢᴏɴ] as well. Do this by using /prefix #hexcode:#hexcode:#hexcode:#hexcode:#hexcode:#hexcode (up to six colors). Select your hex codes from any hex code color picker, like [Birdflop RGB](https://www.birdflop.com/resources/rgb/).

### Chat Colors

In the Mineseed chat, you can customize your chat color once you unlock from many choices! Type the command **/chatcolor** to open the menu. Pick from a variety, or create your own in the [Mineseed store](https://store.mineseed.org). Other colors can be won through crates (including the daily rewards crate).

### Glows

Glows make your avatar have a color around your skin. They are equipped from **/eglow**. Select solid colors from the main menu, or click the enchanted book and select special glows. You can make glows blink or stay solid.

### Tags

Tags appear after your username. In this example, estherium's tag is \[ᴅᴜᴄᴋʟɪɴɢ]. You can equip unlocked tags by doing **/tags**. You can win custom tags by winning build competitions. Other tags can be won through crates, the [soul shop](/mineseed/souls-and-the-soul-shop.md), the [token shop](/mineseed/events-and-the-token-shop.md), and more.

### Pins

Pins are small icons that can appear after your username in chat and in the tab screen (for java users). You can equip a pin by doing /pins and selecting an unlocked one in the menu. You can win custom pins by winning build competitions, or purchasing them from the [Mineseed store](https://store.mineseed.org). Other pins can be won through crates, the [soul shop](/mineseed/souls-and-the-soul-shop.md), the [token shop](/mineseed/events-and-the-token-shop.md), and more.

### Wings

Wings, or back bling are just that--a cosmetics that you can put on your back. Hold the wings in your active hand, and do /wings or /backbling to put them on and off.&#x20;

You can get wings from the [goodies crate](/mineseed/crates.md), [monthly crates](/mineseed/crates.md), and the [**/store**](https://store.mineseed.org/). Occasionally, people will also sell them on [/**ah**](/mineseed/economy/auction-house.md), especially after monthly crates come out.
