Alright here is my Xanga.

First: I am trying to figure out how to move the "About Me" sutff over onto the background I have. Im not sure why it wont move over there, anybody know what I am doing wrong?

Second: I want my blogbody to have a scroll bar. I tried putting the script on this site for it in the website stats, but it wouldnt work.

Here is my custom header, any tips or help is greatly appriciated. THanks!

Kaaaay.
Uhm, try this.
where it say;
QUOTE
<div style="padding:0px; margin-top: 5px; height:100px; margin-left: 0px; width:0px; overflow-y:auto;">
<table border="0" width="100%" style="padding:0px;" class=module><tr><td colspan=2 style="padding:none;" class=module><tr><th>About Me</th></tr><tr><td>

<b>Name:</b> seth<br>

<b>Age:</b> 21<br>
<b>Sex:</b> Male<br>
<b>Location:</b> Norfolk, VA<br><br>
<b>Interests:</b> Well, lets see here. I am usually a very apethetic person. I could care less what people think about me, so I am myself and nobody else. Some people will say that I am quiet, but those people really do not know me at all. But enough about me, what about you!<br><br>
<b>AIM:</b> <a href="aim:goim?screenname=SCREENNAME">seth98es</a><br>


You have to edit the margin-left and stuff so it can go over wherever you want it. Also put </div> at the end of it. XD

where it says

QUOTE
<div style="margin-top:-80; width:800px;">

I think that's your blog, right? Well, if so then add the bolded part;

<div style="margin-top:-80; width:800px; overflow: auto;">

Thanks, I got the blog scroll bar to come up, but how do I make it so the length of the scroll bar = so many pixles? Right now the scroll bar goes all the way down to the bottum of the last post. Also can you get rid of the original scroll bar on the right?

And I still cant get the About Me info moved. No matter what margin-left I put in, it always stays right above the blog.

Ahhh I got the About Me to move, I forgot to put in a </table> at the end of that part of the code. But now the Blogbody is all the way to the left. Any idea to move it? I figured this wouldmove it, but it didnt...

I'll move this into the showcase since you're finished and want some advice! XD

I'm an IE User.. and I say.. maybe change the color of the scrollbar. :]

Sorry one more question. How can I change the colors of the Name, Age, Sex, Location in the About me section? Its a really dark gray and kind of hard to read.

<b><font color="#ffffff">asdhaiduhad</b></font>

^ Use that. ;x Unless you have a bolding code inside your stylesheet, take it out or change that color.
