myspace display name? Options

[shawtiegotem]

well, i'm designing a layout for myspace, a div.
and while i was doing the header. i was thinking,
if their was a way to move the display name up to the header?
instead of adding a table, and add a title myself.
so i was woundering, is it possible to position the display name on
a div?

• Topic must be titled to reflect the question you are asking.
• Topic must include a screenshot or url AND any coding used.
• Topic must indicate whether the question you are asking is for Profile 1.0 or Profile 2.0
• No questions about any type of ad removal.

lolz oops, i thought "div" would point out
for 1.0. you can make divs for 2.0?
sorry, you make me feel slow! haha

Try this:

CODE

<style>
.nametext {position:absolute; top:#px; left:50%; margin-left:#px;}
</style>

Replace the pound symbols with appropriate values.

1. goodmornin sir :)

i'm still making the header, (this is my FIRST ever layout)
and yes i'm doing this from a tutorial, well kinda. im not exactly following the steps.

since your the only one up. i'm wondering, (in your opinion)
where the black table goes, if i should put a table on that, or just leave it like
how it is?(like a blue sheet on it)

and how do you think it looks so far

i'm really going for a clean layout, cause 1. i have no brushes (using a friends computer, i might download a set though, maybe some textures)

i was also wondering if i could make the table where my stuff will go, stretch out everytime i put info in it? instead of adding a table just for a scroll box?

[Mickey]

Sorry, I'm not with you. Can you clarify your questions?

[shawtiegotem]

sorry, you know how it is. 6 in the morning.

okay.
well ignore that.

can i make my myspace tables adjust the length by how much stuff is in it?
like a blog.

[Mickey]

Don't set a height for them. The tables should automatically adjust.

[shawtiegotem]

really???

so "height:;" and it'll do by its self?

[Mickey]

No, don't even add that. Leave it out and it'll just stretch by itself.

[shawtiegotem]

okay, any way i can position my default picture?

[Mickey]

CODE

<style>
.profileInfo a img {position:absolute; top:#px; left:50%; margin-left:#px;}
</style>

[shawtiegotem]

okay, my layout is 800width and 1200 height
is that the right width? like i really want my layout small, so whats the smallest it should be?

[Mickey]

That width will do, yeah.

[shawtiegotem]

would 700 do?

[Mickey]

Sure, that'd be fine too.

[heyo-captain-jac...]

I use 680, just fyi

what you think? i'm still working on it,
this is my first ever div, so i'm trying
to work hard on it.the artwork isn't mine,
i forgot where i found it at.


mike, look @ the link, you see how the right cloud is?
i can't make it stretch like that, how can i
make the table stretch using css, and still having that rounded
corners, and that point sticking out?

[shawtiegotem]

i get what you saying,
but how?

and in the design, what part of it i take off?

[shawtiegotem]

Okay, hey mike!
this is my first layout! ok??
and im stuck
look and tell me what do YOU think of it.
that'll be really helpful :D

[shawtiegotem]

Ok, well the plain black is a texture, if you look closer, ill lighten that up?
and Okay ill remove the stripes. and the gradient on the content?
hm maybe, but maybe i could lighten it up a bit?
what do you think?

[shawtiegotem]

Ok and yes u can close this.
