My Commongate page is: commongate.com/sleeper. I signed up about two months ago and basically thought, "this is lame" and imediately left.  Then I got a friends request from lisa and I started to add a few things to it... Now I'm 73ddicted.

I wanted to personalized it, but there were no instructions, so I basically viewed their css and decided to change all their settings to "transparent" (so that my background will show up).

So, if you want to change your background on commongate, just copy this script and paste it in your about page:

< style type="text/css" >
body{background-image:url("http://backgroundimage.jpg"); background-attachment:fixed; background-repeat:repeat; background-position:center;}
body, td, br, p, tr, h3, h1, h2, h4, h5, header, background, bgcolor, logo, th, textarea, footer, fieldset, font, table, span, ul, clearfix, style, title, header, sys_message, dl, dt, form, #top, #top, .hide, #top-wrap, #user, .nav, .gate-logo, #top .gate_name, #wrap, .msgnew, class, span class{background-color:transparent; background-image:url("http://backgroundimage.jpg"); background-attachment:fixed; background-position:center center; background-repeat:repeat; font-family:verdana, arial, times new roman; color: 000000; text-align: justify;}
< / style >

Obviously you need to change "backgroundimage.jpg" to your own link and image. Oh and you should delete the spaces on 'style' - they were intentionally added so it wouldn't appear as actual scripting...

So you should sign up and be my friend on Commongate.

P.S. I have about 100 messages from commongate now - I thought youtube bad !
