[*steve330*]

It would be nice if people read the 'Before you post' things and looked at all the different subforums.


Look at the forum labeled Resource Center. Go in there and see if your question is already answered. The search function works pretty well if you use it. Chances are your question's been answered.

[tickintakin]

[*SinfullySweet*]

Its okay dear

edit// dont make a new topic! Hopefully a mod will move this for you

[*steve330*]

Really no worries :) Just take a look around the forums so you get the general gist of where to post what

[tickintakin]

ok?! soo can ppl stop worring about the topic?? someone just help me fix it!! [color="#FF0000"][/color][size="5"][/size]please!

[*SinfullySweet*]

You have to tell us what type of layout and what your problem is!

[tickintakin]

i just want to change the color a of a couple things and make the text boxes a little smaller and i dont know how to make what i write stay the way i write it like when i write somehting in like my interest box i'll put spaces or write things a bit lower and i want it to stay spaced out but it always just jumbles back together. should i just put the code here and have u guys take a look? IM SOO CONFUSED!

[heyyfrankie]

^yes.
post the code as well as a link to your myspace...xanga...blogger?

just whatever it is, just post a link and the code.

[*steve330*]

I'm not too proficient with coding :( Just look through your overall layout thing and find where it dictates the color as whatever series of numbers. Then look up some color # list thing and just type in the # of the color you want.

Reason for edit: Added code tags

[*superstitious*]

I will gladly move your topic to where it needs to go, but I need you to tell me what type of layout help you need. We have several help subforums (ie MySpace Support).

/EDIT - you posted at the same time I did! XD

Moved to MySpace support

[heyyfrankie]

post a link to your myspace...you know, your URL.

HTTP://MYSPACE.COM/BLAHBLAHABLAH...

that thing. just copy it from your browser and paste it here.

[*steve330*]

Also if you hit 'Add Reply' you can click the Codebox section to put your code in a convenient box

Also if you click 'Add Reply' and look at the Quick Access thing to the bottom left you can highlight your thing and click Codebox

CODE

to make it look like this

why do i need to post a link?
so can anyone help me with the problem?

[heyyfrankie]

...SERIOUSLY?!!!

we need to have a link so we can see exactly wha tthe problem is...
why else would we want one? we're not gonna stalk you, we need to see the problem in action so that we can solve it.

[*superstitious*]

why do i need to post a link?
so can anyone help me with the problem?

A view of your actual page will help pin point the problem a bit more, that's all. =)

Also, people are trying to help here. Please be patient with those who are only trying to assist you.

[tickintakin]

sorry
my profile is private so u wont be able to see will this help?

the layout

[heyyfrankie]

no. having it on private will not help us at all.

but i took the liberty in making a myspace and pasted your code in the ABOUT ME section and now i can see the layout...

now, what exactly is your question?
like...EXACTLY.

[tickintakin]

its ok if you cant
its really not that big of a deal

[heyyfrankie]

WHAT THE f**k?!

i can fix the problem.
i just need to know exactly what it is.

are you not understanding?

[tickintakin]

i want to make the thickness of the boxes a little thinner and i want to change the colors and when i write things i want them to stay how i write them what i mean by that is that when i write something i want to put spaces in between like create paragraphs but i cant it wont let me

those are the only problems i have with it

[*superstitious*]

CODE

scrollbar-arrow-color:######;

The ###### needs to be changed to a Hex code

CODE

<a href="http://comment.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewComments&friendID=XXXXXX"><b>Comment</b></a>

You need to replace the XXXXXX with your friendid. Instructions for that can be found here.

Those are a couple of examples of how to apply a layout to your MySpace.

You should NOT be messing around with sizes. For one, you are obviously unfamiliar with html/css and it also isn't respectful to the designer when you screw with the integrity of the original code. Just a couple of hints. ;)

[tickintakin]

yeah i really really dont know what im doing i just love the layout and i really want it. i jsut want to tweak it a bit..

[*superstitious*]

The link to the layout you want doesn't work. Can you relink the layout itself. The designers typically leave instructions and I'm curious as to what the instructions look like.

And applying layouts can be very intimidating, especially when you are unfamiliar with coding. Just be patient with us as we try to help you out. Know that the more specific you are with questions, the more specific answers you will receive. =)

[heyyfrankie]

the borders on the boxes cannot be changed because they are a part of the actual image. (i doubt the designer would want that.)

to create paragraphs, do this.

CODE

<p>PUT STUFF THAT YOU WANT HEREE...</P>
<P>START NEW PARAGRAPH HEREE, CONTINUE THAT PATTERN FOR HOWEVER MANY PARAGRAPHS YOU WANT.</P>
<P>NEW ONE HERE</P>
<P>AND HEREE</P>

for reason the <FONT> TAG isn't working...h/o

[tickintakin]

ooooh okie that fine and thank u a lot!!
