okay i have a few questions about making a xanga skin.by the way, its my first one.
1] how big are skins usually are, or how big should i start off with? 2] QUOTE you can also image map on ImageReady by clicking the "Image Map" tab. If you're image mapping on ImageReady, click the "Internet Explorer" icon on the left toolbar for your code. when i type where i want my links to be on the skin on photoshop and then go to image ready to try to image map, im confused on how to make my 'sign in' and etc to be links. :] thats the questions for now. thanks if you help me :] |

okay i tried coding it and all that stuff and put the codes together to make my skin..ITS NOT WORKINGGGGGGGGGGGGGG :[
i saw it when i viewed my xanga and its all ruined..like the links on my skin i made are not working and its not on the page and its ontop of the page instead of taking the whole view of the internet window :'[.. -tear tear- heres what my xanga looks like so far without the html codes,but with the code from edit>copy html slices from imageready. HERE i dont know about your cmputer but i cant see the skin.see how the skin is ontop of the page  even when i put all the codes on,its still messed up like that  QUESTION 1] also..isaved it as a .gif..the other choice was .html..could that be the problem..because when i tried to upload it on imageshack and photobucket, the links were disabled..could saving it as a .gif be the prblem? |
