How do i change the background of my page?


originally contributed by: Logan Sakai




changing your background can be either easy or a little tricky,
depending on how you want your background to act. the way i do it is by
using cascading style sheets (CSS) because it allows greater
flexibility over the standard <body> tag. to change the color,
you will need to consult a color chart(SEE ADDITIONAL RESOURCES SECTION). simply type the six-digit color code where it says 'color_code'.

first start out with this code. you will need to use this, or else your background wont show up. this gets rid of all current table styling:






<style type="text/css">
  table, tr, td {
  background-color:transparent;
  border:none;
  border-width:0;}
</style>

the above piece of code is important because
it will make the table backgrounds transparent so that you can see your
background image.

to just change the color of your background:





<style type="text/css">
  body {
  background-color: color_code;}
</style>



to use a FIXED picture as your background:(also known as "i want my background to stay in place while my words move")





<style type="text/css">
  body {
  background-image:url("BACKGROUND URL HERE");
  background-attachment:fixed;}
</style>





here are other variables you can use that will change the way your background is displayed. just add them between the existing <style> tags:







specify how you want it to repeat:
background-repeat: repeat-y;


repeat-x | repeat-y | no-repeat

position by plain words:

background-position: left bottom;

x axis - left | center | right
y-axis - top | center | bottom



position by percentages:
background-position: x% y%;


position by exact pixel coordinates:

background-position: x y;


for background-positions.. left variable should always be x-axis, and right variable should always be your y-axis.



heres an example of an entire background style. this will result in a centered picture that repeats vertically, with a white background:





<style type="text/css">
  table, td, tr {
  background-color:transparent;
  border:none;
  border-width:0;}
  body {
  background-color: FFFFFF;
  background-image: url('http://www.picture.com/pic.jpg');
  background-repeat: repeat-y;
  background-position: center;}
</style>

<style>
table div {display:none;}
table table div {display:block;}
.friendsAndComments {width:800px; position:absolute; left:50%;
top:3000px; margin-left:-400px;}
.friendsAndComments table {width:100%; background-color:transparent; border:0px;}
</style>
</td></tr></table>
</td></tr></table>
<div class="friendsAndComments">
<table style="display:none;"><tr><td>
<table><tr><td>


If you want a border/background on it, include this between the style tags, and adjust the values to whatever you want

.friendsAndComments {border:3px solid; border-color:6699cc; background-color:ff99cc;}
.friendsAndComments * {border:0px; background-color:transparent;}


If you want to center ONLY the comments, you can use this, but you will need to adjust the TOP number in the code depending on your layout

<style>
.friendsComments {position:relative; top:0px; left:-300px; width:800px;}
.friendsComments table {width:100%;}
</style>

Your Friend ID Number: Your "Friend ID number is the number found in your "address bar" when you visit your profile, NOT the number from your short URL:

EXAMPLE:

YOUR FRIEND ID NUMBER WILL BE WHERE I HAVE HIGHLIGHTED RED
DO NOT CONFUSE IT WITH YOUR "MyToken Number"

how do i add music to my page?

originally contributed by: Logan Sakai


to add background music to your page, you will need to have the url to
the music file (wma, asx, mp3.. etc.) from either another site, or from
your own host.


this will create a music player with controls that a viewer can control:

<embed src="url_of_song"  width="280" height="45"></embed>


Step by step instructions:


  1. Download a song
    winmx.com
    epitonic.com
    google.com

  2. Hosting a song
    Search for a host (google.com - free webhost)
    Make sure the host allow music download (.wma .mp3 .rm .ram .mov .wav etc.)
    Make sure the host allow HOTLINKING (if not, you're out of luck)
    Upload your music
    Get the URL (http://the.host.site.and.your.username/music.file.mp3)
  3. Putting the song up
    Have to use the right code
    Make sure the code has no mistake

  4. Not working?
    Check all the step above
  5. STILL Not working?
    You suck! Stop trying!

Customizing your "view more pictures" page

original content from: Random


PLACE EACH CODE IN THE CAPTIONS TO EACH PICTURE
Enter individual style code is small enough to fit in each picture caption, you can find the edit caption section through the Upload/Change Photos link on your homepage..

For a background picture:
<body style="background:url(ENTER YOUR PIC URL INTO THIS SITE AND PLACE THE URL HERE)">
*You can also use tinypic.com for this..



For a background color:
<body bgcolor="COLOR_CODE">




To allow your background picture or color to show up:
<style>div {background:transparent!important;}</style>




To make the background picture stay put when you scroll:
<style>body{background-attachment:fixed;}</style>




(If needed) To make your background not repeat:
<style>body{background-repeat: no-repeat;}</style>




To make your text visible:
<style>*{color:COLOR_CODE!important;}</style>




To change the color of the links:
<style>a {color:COLOR_CODE!important;}</style>




To give the picture a translucent look in IE (the 85 variable can be changed as desired):
<style>img{filter:alpha(opacity=85);}</style>




Or this code to put a gray filter on all the images in IE:
<style>img {filter:gray;}</style>




To take the translucent effect or any other filter off of the pictures when you rollover them with the mouse in IE:
STYLE>a:hover img{filter:none}</STYLE>




Or this code to flip the pictures when you hover over them:
<style>a:hover img{filter:fliph;}</STYLE>




Make sure each tag is complete (and closed off) before entering the code.

Warning: There is a drawback to coding your photo area this way: each picture will only have the individual code on it when clicked on.

By the way, If you want to take the code off your captions: just go to add caption, and leave the area blank, and then submit a blank caption. It will erase any previous caption left, and leave the area blank once more.


When attempting this type of coding: DO NOT LEAVE THE STYLE TAG OPEN..

CORRECT: <style>code</style>
BAD: <style>code</style
BAD: <style>code</
BAD: <style>code

<how to post code in the forums>

Revision submitted by Abraxus

In order to post visible code in the forums simply replace all instances of the "less than" symbol : <
with this: <</b>

If this is too complicated for you then ask in the forums for a link to a generator that will convert your code to forum safe code.

And if you are a forum helper and this is too complicated for you, then perhaps you shouldn't be helping. -neKo

How To Post An Image

In order to post an image you must first have your image uploaded somewhere on the internet.
Image hosts such as Photobucket and Imageshack are free and easy to use. Photobucket requires a registration but provides you with all the codes you need to post an image so you don't really need to continue reading this tutorial. Imageshack requires no such registration. You simply use the upload box on the page and when your image has completed uploading a new page will appear with text fields and codes. Copy the code from the field that is labeled "Direct Link" and use it when the following tutorial calls for the URL.

<img src="URL to image" />

Here, for those of who like to learn, is a further exposition on the HTML image tag.
All tags begin with the "Less Than" symbol: <
And end with the "Greater Than" symbol: >
(For stand alone tags that have no closing tag, the correct closing syntax for a tag includes a forward slash before the final less than sign : /> )
Then the tag is defined by it's job: IMG (image)
Next, any number of elements can be defined, though generally this is where you define the SRC (source) of your image.
Other optional elements can include HEIGHT, WIDTH, BORDER, VSPACE (vertical space), HSPACE (horizontal space), ALIGN, etc.

HEIGHT & WIDTH
are determined automatically as the image loads, but sometimes you may want your image to appear in a different size than what it originally is. For instance: Have you ever been reading a webpage with images that are in the process of loading? If the images don't have a defined height and width then the page will adjust in length as the images load. This can result in text you are reading suddenly appearing further down the page. So in this instance it would have been advantagious to dictate a height and width.
Or perhaps you might want to augment the standard dimensions of an image.

This image is 150 pixels in width and 150 pixels in height.

<img src="voo.jpg" width="150" height="150" />

by changing the width to 50 pixels and keeping the height at 150 pixels, the same image would look like this:

<img src="voo.jpg" width="50" height="150" />

BORDER
adds (or removes in the case of a linked image) borders around images.

<img src="voo.jpg" width="50" height="50" border="10" />

VSPACE & HSPACE
can be used to add a bit of padding around a picture. Vspace adds padding to the top and the bottom of an image. Hspace adds padding to the right and left of the image.

<img src="voo.jpg" width="50" height="50" align="left" vspace="10" />

ALIGN
is most commonly used to wrap text around an image. By default, text will start at the bottom right side of a picture like so:

text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text

by adding align="left"to the image tag, the text will instead hug the sides of the image, like so:

<img src="voo.jpg" width="50" height="50" align="left" />
text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text

<img src="voo.jpg" width="50" height="50" align="right" />

How To Post A Link

the ANCHOR tag

<a href="URL of link" >text</a>

A link is a clickable piece of text or image that creates a redirect to another location on the internet.
The above code is all you need. Just place the URL (or address) of the location you want to link to in the indicated place.


Here, for those of who like to learn, is a further exposition on the HTML anchor tag.

All tags begin with the "Less Than" symbol: <
And end with the "Greater Than" symbol: >
Then the tag is defined by it's job: A (anchor)
Next, any number of elements can be defined, though generally this is where you define the HREF (hypertext reference) point to the URL of your link.
An optional element commonly used in ANCHOR tags is TARGET
Tags that affect elements of a page such as making links, bolding text, changing font size also need to have a closing tag when you want to stop the indicated effect, such as at the end of a link. EXAMPLE: </a>

TARGET
indicates where the link opens at.
_blank renders the link in a new, unnamed window
_self renders the link in the current window/frame.
There are other options, but these are the only two you will ever really need on myspace.

example of _blank target
customizing
<a href="http://www.myspace.com/customizing" target="_blank">customizing</a>

example of linked image

<a href="http://www.myspace.com/customizing" target="_blank"><img src="voo.jpg" /></a>
