I'm new to this whole xanga skin stuff... I read all the tutorials here and I'm still lost and confused wacko.gif . My xanga pretty much looks like crap and I've spent the last week or so trying to figure out making a skin.

Can anyone please help me?

And another thing.....I don't know what Image Mapping is. Never heard of it. blink.gif
So if possible....Can you tell me what it is and how it works? Thanks....

Please do not double post (topics)

The skin looks complicated, but it is actually quite easy. It is just an abstract-like image and a background with many mixed colors and different, more professional-like fonts. If you need any help with creating a skin or anything else, feel free to PM me. _smile.gif

image mapping! on a webpage you more than likely have links, say to subscribe or sign in, etc... well on a skin like that, all the links are deleted, so most people replace the link text with a link image. image mapping usually takes the four corners of the image, (the coordinates of it) and they plug it in the code. you also have to tell it the url of where you want it to go when you click the image.
hope that helps
