You have nothing to worry about for your horses. They won't age if you do not log in. For your center, however, time will continue to progress, so there are a few small things you'll have to plan ahead for:

• Make sure your employees' contracts cover the dates over which you'll be absent, or hire temps
• Also, see to it that you have large enough stocks of litter (every box's litter is changed once a week)
• You have 20 days to harvest your crops

Seasons last one week on Howrse. Fall begins on the first day of each real month. Winter starts on the eighth day of the month, spring on the fifteenth and summer on the twenty-second. Summer lasts to the end of the current month. The cycle of seasons starts over again on the first day of the next month.

Ways to win passes:

• you earn 1 pass for every 5 karma points karma
• you win one or more passes when your horse is sold for passes in private sales
• you win one pass for each horse over 30 you send to heaven but no more than 30 passes in 30 days
  
• you can buy a pass with money in your reserve once you have 50days of seniority on Howrse. After that, you can buy one every 30 days. It costs 20% of your cash reserve.

Howrse players commonly have to deal with stolen accounts. But you can avoid this by following these tips:

• ALWAYSlog off before leaving Howrse,
• NEVER save your password in your browser,
• don't leave the computer you're using to play howrse unattended,
• don't share your password with anyone
• delete the e-mail you received when you joined, because if someone hacks your e-mail address, he or she will have access to your Howrse login and password,
• and lastly, don't use a password people who know you could easily figure out.

You don't have to take care of all your horses. If you perform no actions on your horse, it will not age or run health risks.

To insert an image from your computer, you have to upload it to a site like imageshack. Then all you have to do is to put the web address on the forum from your profile page.

On forums, the tags you must use for each link are [img] and [/img]. They must be pasted to the link without spacing.

On your profile, you have to use the exact link to the site where you uploaded your image by using the "image" button on your profile page.

A hypertext link lets you put just a word or sentence people can click to visit another site, such as one about your horses.

The tagging system is the same for forums as for images. The only difference is that the tag is [url] or [/url] .

To hide the address and put only the word or sentence you want, do the following: [url=address you want to redirect to]word you want to appear and then, without spaces, close the tag [/url]

On your presentation page, use the "link" button and enter the address you want to redirect to. To insert a hypertext link, write the text you want to appear, select it, click the link button, and then enter the address in the box that appears.
