Lieut Kusa & Fruitcake, I just wanted to say that I LOVE your profile page "skins"........That is what they are, right? The backgrounds on your
profile page? Fruity, your page is so serene & pretty & Lt Kusa, I totally love the kd pictures as your wall paper, I'd so love to do that if I
could figure out how to customize it......It's currently the purple w/ stars, but I may change it to pink, since that's my usual favorite colour, or
sky blue, lol

Thank yah Lisa!!
I took an existing skin and tweaked and messed around before I got what I wanted. I'm sure you already know how to get there but click "Account", then click "Active Profile", and then click "My Profile Skins". If there is nothing there just edit the CSS code in an existing skin. The code has to be written in the "Advanced CSS" box. All I did was take the URL of an image I wanted and inserted it into the background code thingy. If you have an art program you can easily get the numbers for what colors you want to use like color: #72B3F9. Just put your eyedrop thingymajig over a color to get the number. Click "Add another skin" at the bottom and I would suggest adding the JJB profile since it looks easiest to edit or anyone you want if the layout is a bit different that you want. Then just go to "edit html" under action and you will see a URL already there for that skin and simply put your image there. I had to do a lot of resizing mine to get it to fit the screen. I hope that helps some!!! If you need help at all just let me know and I will try my best to help. |

lisa, thank you very much for your kind words.
the page is a work in progress, i think. or maybe it will stay as it is. we'll see. i'd be happier if that big display ad weren't there but yuku's gotta get paid. lieut kusa, may i just say that your tips are light-years ahead of where this fruitcake will ever be cyberly! you are one clever lieut. and i too adore the background pic of herself. mmmmm. (where's that msn heart when you need it?) good choice! |

I need some honest criticism about my profile page. The left hand column is too narrow, and there is too much space on the right hand column.
Can I change that in the CSS box? |

fie!
something on your page is still making my toy crash, manon. it may be the ad that's running (over which you have no control, obviously), but no ads on mine have yet caused a crash. annoying. |

Oh, by the way, fruitcake, I wanted to say that I love your pics of kd. The one at the mirror I almost used myself before I saw it on your page and the one
under your book titles shows a really lazy looking ms. lang.
Love it.

thank you, kind miss!
i have two or three more of her in my photo album, but i purposely made it not about kd but about humankind and life in general; sort of an overview, was my intent. i add things as the spirit moves me. but in the main, i have confined my kd picture posting to our communal yuku album. who can tire of looking at her? |

as far as your site is concerned, i still cannot get in: kd at the top about registers on my pea brain and then the walls come crashing down.
it may be that your site is image-intensive and thus too much for my toy to process. however, i don't really think it's that, as i have no problem with googling or looking at our community album or displaying lots of images in other arenas. i'm sure it's me and not you, but i am sorry. i wanna visit! |

what is it about dragonflies which touch so many?
i cannot recall a time when i was not drawn to them, and they seem to appear at especially propitious moments. |

Alright, I am STILL playing around with my profile page, it will NEVER be finished but I need a tip. I have added an image as a banner but I can't get it
centered. I have tried the "align=center" in the CSS box, I have tried similare things in the advanced css box and nothing works. Has anybody an
idea? I would be so grateful as I am almost bald from pulling my hair out and my fists are bloddy from banging on the table and my feet hurt from stomping on
the floor.

Fruitcake, you keep changing the pics on your profile page, not that I am complaining. I know that when I visit I am in for a surprise. So now I am going to
publicly confess that I am a moron. What is the name of the plant/fruit? It must be sweet, there are bees on the leaves. I, personally, thank you for the eagle
because I find birds of prey sooooo beautiful
