The Spaghetti Store

## Customize Your Player Card with Cosmetics The Spaghetti Store is where you spend your hard-earned Spaghetti Points on cosmetic items that personalize your player card and profile. From avatar borders to animated backgrounds, the store offers a variety of ways to stand out in the community. ### Available Cosmetics The store features several categories of cosmetic items: **Avatar Borders:** Avatar borders are decorative frames that surround your profile picture. They come in various styles — from simple colored rings to elaborate animated borders with effects like fire, electricity, or neon glow. Avatar borders are one of the most visible cosmetics since your avatar appears throughout the platform in tournament brackets, leaderboards, and community pages. **Card Backgrounds:** Card backgrounds change the visual backdrop of your player card. Your player card is the detailed popup that appears when someone clicks on your name in a tournament or leaderboard. Backgrounds range from subtle gradients and textures to vibrant game-themed artwork. Some backgrounds are created by community artists through the artist program. **Stickers:** Stickers are small decorative graphics that you can place on your player card. You can add multiple stickers and position them wherever you like. Sticker collections include fighting game motifs, memes, national flags, and seasonal designs. ### Purchasing Items To buy an item: 1. **Browse the store** and find an item you like 2. **Click on the item** to see a preview and its price in Spaghetti Points 3. **Click Purchase** — if you have enough points, the item is added to your inventory immediately 4. **Confirm the purchase** — points are non-refundable, so make sure you want the item Your remaining balance is updated instantly after each purchase. ### Equipping Items After purchasing a cosmetic item, you need to equip it to display it on your profile: 1. **Go to your Profile Settings** and open the **Cosmetics** section 2. **Select the category** (Border, Background, or Stickers) 3. **Click on the item** you want to equip from your inventory 4. **Save changes** — your new look is visible to everyone immediately You can change your equipped cosmetics as often as you like.
