The Code part in the post template is there for a reason.

mob
Login()
icon = 'Person.dmi'
switch (input("Gender") in list("Male", "Female"))
if("Male")
icon_state = "Male"
if("Female")
icon_state = "Female"
usr << "Welcome to Rexen!!"
usr << "Together We Ride.mp3"
..()

turf
Grass

its not much, I just wanted to test whether my gender code would work and the map would show up : / however the map is gone and the text part is white

In Login(), you're only calling ..() if the player is female. The ..() calls the built-in Login() which does some setup on client.eye, the mob's location, etc. Without that setup you won't see the map.
