Altering a skin, Helping my friend.. Options

[Smitty]

K.... I need your guy's help. I know nothing about coding, but she really likes this Xanga skin, but she needs to know if it's at all possible to move the blog to the center, and put her right and left modules (she uses cbox) back? The code is found here. I'll leave her on my name if you guys can help at all. I appreciate any help you guys have.

[hi-C]

Well, I don't know why you'd want to move the blog into the center, since you wouldn't see the text through the picture, but it's possible.

IMO, it would be better to just have everything where it's supposed to be and change the width to fit the box. And I believe that you can put the cbox in the left module.

Can you post her codes, please?

K... I don't think I was clear with the links. Sorry. Here's the code(sorry about the long thing, I still haven't figured out how to use the box thing.)

it's the "codebox" button that's to the top-right of your "enter your post" box

Is this a xanga who's codes you can take or is it someone's xanga codes that you are stealing?
