Ok wait, I didn't think right. Your wanting to like, make your own background in say photoshop correct? And use that? I thought you meant layout.

ya I'm making my own, but what dimensions should I use? right now I started in 800x600
23 April 2006, 18:02 UTC#7
It's larger than that. What you can do. Take a screen shot of your myspace. Then take into photoshop, if that is what your using, use the selection tool to select what would be your background. Then check the size.

How it appears will all depend on the viewer's screen dimensions. Thats why I just use a repeating pattern.
23 April 2006, 21:23 UTC#9
Are you having just one picture? Or will it be tiled?

yeah any background image will look shit to some people, listen to mike and use a repeating pattern that doesnt look shit.

Thats because its set to the corner, if the image was huge it would mess things up. Try setting your screen resolution really low and viewing it.

I know...I was just enjoying the hits...<3
24 April 2006, 00:10 UTC#16
ya the corner image is the thing I'm trying to create. So I should just make and image and not worry about the placement, and just set it to corner?

thats pretty damn simple
24 April 2006, 22:52 UTC#21
umm yaa...I don't really have an understanding of css. is there a html code where I only have to put in the url for it?
25 April 2006, 23:43 UTC#22
???
26 April 2006, 06:47 UTC#23
Just use css. It's easier than your mum.
27 April 2006, 01:49 UTC#24
ok, well I don't know anything about css, so is it similar to html? do I just put in a code with a url of the image in like the about me section or what?
27 April 2006, 01:54 UTC#25

Just use the code Adrian posted.

background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: right bottom;
background-attachment: fixed;
you mean that? so if I post that with the url in the brackets it should work? I don't need like a <img src> or anything? heh sorry I know very little about html and such
