Making a skin with the 'table format'?, What is it and is there a code? =) Options

[Chelsea]

Hi! I've looked in Xanga Scripts, but when I'm not exactly sure what its really called..its hard to find it. Ive heard people say "i made this skin using the table format" and then their skin looks really neat and clean cut. What is this 'table format' and is there a code? Thanks!!
