please don't ask how to make a layout Options

[*disco infiltrator*]

There are plenty of tutorials and scripts in the Myspace section of Createblog to suffice you.

Besides, we all had to learn how to make div overlay and such. You guys need to actually look around and find it for yourselves.

This forum is for help with things that don't work, not to have someone do something for you.

Well seeing as how there are a bunch of OLD topics, I don't think that I would even want to take the time to look through all those. I don't have the time and even if I did, I wouldn't.

Yeah, thats your Goddamned problem. All you newbies are too lazy to even START learning. We all had to start somewhere, and way back when, we didn't have this blessed site to start learning. We learned by ourselves - put OUR OWN MONEY into books, spoke up to our friends, people we didn't know, looked at the sources of different webpages. I bet all of you have barely even looked into a layout code. You just saw that big long code and thought, "crap that thing is long I'M NOT GOING TO WASTE THE TIME AND READ IT, EVEN IF THAT MEANS I CAN UNDERSTAND IT, AND MAYBE EVEN LEARN!! Then I post a bashing topic on the lovely createblog.com saying that they won't teach us, when that is what the site is for". You know how I started learning HTML? By wanting to make bold and colored text. Really. I saw somebody's bolded and colored text on a myspace bulletin and thought, "Man that looks pretty. Hm, if I press "reply", then I'll probably be able to see what made it that way." And you know what I saw? I saw bold tags, italics, font colors and sizes. But oh, how did I understand them, and know what each meant? I used my common sense. I opened up the bulletin in another window and matched the pretty text to the coded text. Then one day, I was tired of just making the text pretty, and found that my layout had a font I didn't like, and I didn't want the link hover code to be FFCC00. I searched google for a html help site. I got lissaexplains.com, htmlgoodies.com, whateverlife.com, and a lot of others. I took my time (The time that I could've been spending doing something else, I might add.) to look all over the site, every single link I could find. I went back to my myspace layout. I changed the text font, and I changed the color code of my hover link. But I did a LOT more - I changed the background color, the table color, I even made my own image using Gimp - and I was referred to it from one of those sites. Before I knew it, my page looked O.K. But it was something completely me. It was nothing special, but I loved it. My first layout, what joy. But that wasn't all in my layout - I had scrollboxes, comment boxes, pretty scrollbars - THE WORKS. I was so proud. You just need to learn BY YOUR SELF. And hey, I'll give you a hint. There's a VERY VERY easy tutorial about how to make a CSS Style Sheet from lissaexplains.com. I'm not going to give you the link, though. You need to find it yourself. And on the way there, you'll find a lot of other things. Really neat tools that can make your myspace or webpage awesomely cooly totally radical. It's how A LOT of people here learned HTML, and how to make layouts. Be one of them.

And btw, the first post was not rude AT ALL. It was direct, upfront, and forward. She was laying down the law. If there is one post in this whole topic it would be mine, and I admit it. I'm pretty Goddamned pissed right now at all of you lazy newbies. None of you even WANT to learn - you just want to PRETEND to learn while some blessed, awesome person tries to explain how to make a layout, and when they have it all done, you'll just copy and paste that layout into your myspace. Assholes.

ok,first off,not all newbies are lazy ok! I am a newbie here and I just came to this forum and saw this topic,who are you to say we're all lazy? yes,i have to agree with you,that one guy was a lazy a-hole.no doubt about that.they way you were stating everything was rude.yes,i understand,everyone who is pro at making layouts or comment boxes or whatever probably did have to learn by themselves,but all some of us n00bs are asking is for a little help.some people may be like...stalker help,but not all.and you know what,i didn't even know you acually should start at the basics like comment boxes or fonts or stuff like that.I just found that out! people won't know right off the bat 'oh i should start with the basics'.ypu have to be patient with some people.just telling them to go find out themselves,even thought it was just direct,upfront,and forward,it could hurt peoples feelings.And as stupid as that sounds,its true.people like me have very sentimental feelings and to have someone like that say something like that is harsh in a weird way.and ok,i DO want to learn ok.i dont want to pretend like some 5 eyar old,i acually would like to learn how to do stuff like this! and calling people assholes and stuff like that is not a way to confront this situatiion..even thought i admit i did it a couple times in this reply too.
