Swingers Forum - New profile view. Can't "decode the myspace layout!"

I am not a programmer or anything like that, but I know enough to make me screw shit up! I wanted a change to our profile and I noticed it said that we could use myspace code, so I just cut and pasted the code into our swingular profile. My question is I can't get ride of the header on the background that says something like "get your my space layouts here!" I looked thru the code, but couldn't find text like that. So does anyone have the answer for that? And why can't we have pics on our background? :(

If you post the "code" in a reply, I'm sure someone can find it for you.
bet i cant find it!!
look for anything that starts with <img src="

As far as background pics on your profile, you need to make sure that your code has the following in it.

body
background-image: url('ImageURLGoesHere');


replace <font color="#ff0000">ImageURLGoesHere</font> with the URL of the image you wish to use as your background. If you need further information about CSS code; a great site to visit is:

find information specific to background-images here:

Hope that helps.

Oh God, Don is back :s
HAHAHA!

Hey guys, I figure out what's wrong. The pic server for the image you are trying to use is uses a place card to prevent linking to the image. You should try to change the URL to another image. Try hosting the image on photobucket.com or imageshack.us

This is sooooooo over my head. How do you add one of your own pics??? as a background...oh never mind... :( I'm afraid if i mess something up I'll never get it back to normal...And we all know admin is a little slow on the help issue...lol
WOOOHOOO The Dons back.... how was home?
Better than here THUMP. Hey CPL, if you follow those instructions, you'll be fine. Actually finding a link to your own pics is easy.
