For me your music player shows ontop:

To get your comments to show you need to unhide them first. So what I usually do is I take out all the div parts of the code and save them. So I only have css . Then I see if the comments are showing. Then I eliminate lines of the codes to find whats hiding it. Once you do so , get rid of that part. Then use the comments in a div script, etc.

I'm assuming your slideshow is supposed to be below the logo? It keeps popping up in safari.

But here are your screenshots:

huh. ok. This is a big complicated thing

I'm trying to center my profile for everybody

to do that I'm absolute positioning everything 50% then I'm moving it back half the width of the image.

<img src="http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/2329/backgrocd2.gif" style="position: absolute; width:776px; height: 1000px; left: 50%; margin-left: -388px; z-index: 1">

(yes I know to use the code tags but it wouldn't let me explain by using colors)


It's not exactly working. Can someone figure this out?

Have you tried loosing the percents and margins and just positioning with left, top, etc. Because for some people margin positioning always makes it come out different in diff. screens and resolutions.

I would say make a test myspace and try positioning it w/o margins and percents.

Not using margins and percents has a more likely chance of centering for everyone than using margins and percents from what I've read and saw. (Meaning you reposition it w/o them)

But its up to you then.

wait, how could you center somethin for everyone without using percents?

by just using Left and Top, you can't center something for everyone

Edited. Nevermind I finally get what you meant. She was able to do it here: http://www.createblog.com/layouts/download.php?id=15442 . You can take a look (don't copy anything it) to see how exactly she did it. Atleast its centered for me, if its centered in IE she was able to accomplish what you want?

I see how she did it. I did it The Same Way

but I want to know why it's not working for me


NEVER MIND

gosh this feels like the seventh time you've done this toya

no offense, but you know less about code than some other people. And because of that you tell people that it can't be done instead of actually helping them

I know this is the second time that I tried to explain percents and centers to you.
I love createblog, but why is it that I get ticked off when I have to deal with you?




I apologize for my rant, I'm angry, tried, and fed-up
