I don?t know about you, but I spend tons of time looking for code that I know is in the MyGen forums, but for the life of me can?t find it.

So I?m compiling, mostly for my benefit, some of the codes that I know are here, but I can?t find:

These are questions I?m asked all the time:

?I want to make my profile look like yours.?
-My profile is a Div overlay. There are two things you need to read before you ask me any other questions about how to do it.

1. Look at Diamondandy?s tutorial about how to make a div overlay in:
http://www.mygen.co.uk/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=16501
*Note: It?s a video so it?s not too painful to watch. Actually, it?s really quite entertaining

2. Go here to get a basic jist of how div code works:

Shifting the About Me section up after removing extended network and blogs

</td></tr></table></td></tr></table> </td><td width="40">&nbsp;</td><td valign="top" class="text"><br> <div class="hidethem"><table><tr><td><table><tr><td><table><tr><td>

VERY TOP OF ABOUT ME
</td></tr></table>
</td></tr></table>
</td></tr></table>
</div><table><tr><td>
<table width="435"><tr><td valign="top" align="left" width="435" bgcolor="ffffff" style="word-wrap:break-word"> <span class="orangetext15">About me:</span><br>


THEN PLACE THIS ANYWHERE
<STYLE>.hidethem {display:none; visibility:hidden;}</STYLE>

First off I do not want to sound rude but your DIV code is wrong.. (Position wise and no end code) I am new here and I thank you MUCH for the code it just needs some different settings (if that sounded right) I am sure the help sites have the information on it, yet I am trying to save people time.. (mosty for me) If people need a different settings I am always willing to help!

<div style="position:absolute; left:10px; top:0px; margin-left:50px; width:3000px; height:5000; background-color:transparent; overflow:auto; z-index:2;"> <center><table><tr><td><table><tr><td>

<style type="text/css">
table, tr, td { background-color:transparent; border:none; border-width:0;} body { background-image:url(BACKGROUND IMAGE URL HERE);
background-attachment:fixed; background-repeat:repeat-y;
background-position:top center; overflow-x:hidden; margin-top: 300px; }

div.topbanner { position: absolute; top: 20; left: 15px; margin-left: 17px; width: 817px; height: 300px; } </style> <div class="topbanner"><img src="PICTURE URL HERE" border="0"></div></div></center></table></tr></td></table></tr></td>


P.S. Sorry if I sound mean or whatever

[luv2dostuf]

Naw, you don't sound mean. There's no end code for a reason; it works better that way.

[scooton]

very useful information =)

putfile doesn't allow direct linking to files hosted on their server though, so the link wont stay valid for me than a few hours at a time or something like that.

thanks still!

[luv2dostuf]

Yeah, putfile sucks. I only use them if I have a large picture or movie file.

[quote="luv2dostuf"]Naw, you don't sound mean. There's no end code for a reason; it works better that way.[/quote]Thats funny, for when I didn't have an end code it had my Top friends list and everything else below it with the picture... and it was positioned funny... I guess it was mine it was struggling on..

[luv2dostuf]

I guess its all in how you use the code. I only use it with an overlay consisting of just pictures so there's no other code interfering with it.
