The wait is over.
The next generation in profile editing is here.
No longer will profile creation be a random exercise, where you guess what colours go well, how your profile will turn out, or what filters affect what.
With the arrival of MyGen 2.5, all these questions are answered, and many more, right before your eyes.
New Features
Totally redesigned generation engine - 100% accurate code generation, 100% of the time
Live Preview! - Watch your profile come to life with each click of a mouse.
Fully tabbed inteface - Easy to control inteface to eliminate confusing options. No need to turn your popup blocker off!
Improved colour picker - More colours to choose from, in a sexy DIV layer!
Group compatible - The ONLY fully user/group/band compatible profile generator on the net!
Section hiding - Automatically hide unneccessary areas of your profile!
Opacity settings - Choose opacity for your tables
Cursor settings - Choose cursors for your page, on the fly!
Built-in image filters - Choose your image filters, again on the fly!
Images as table backgrounds.
Improved aesthetics - New navigation buttons
Removed 'Extra Stuff' and replaced by redesigned 'Generators' & 'Tutorials' - All your favourite add-ons in one place!
Internet Explorer 6, Firefox 1.0x and Opera 8 FULLY compatible!
100% FREE! - Now, and for always!
I tried my hardest to throw you all off the scent with the cryptic messages, not only from myself, but from my co-designer Rocky 'PugFish' Wilkins, and I want to assure you all that MyGen isn't closing, nor is it being sold, nor are we going to charge for it. MyGen is, and always will be 100% free, and aslong as there is a need for it, MyGen will be here to help you, and your friends create profile after profile after profile...
I honestly can't thank you all enough for making MyGen what it is today. The thanks and praise I get from you all is the motivation I need to continue making this site the #1 MySpace resource site on the net.
I hope you all enjoyed our little waiting game, and I look forward to hearing your comments and suggestions (and bug reports, of which I'm sure there are many!) in the forums.
For now, enjoy!
Thanks
Rob & Rocky

Very nice job!
A few things though. I can live without, but I thought I'd point these out. I could not find the following in the new version:
A test customization spot for your name (The name that appears above the picture)
An "extra" box to put "extra" code, like music. Like I said, easily worked around, but the old version had it, and I couldn't find it in this version.
Once again, I could not find these things, they may very well be there, and I'm jsut blind or too excited.
This is nearly perfect, it can't get much better. =D |

Yeah I didn't like how you couldn't just type in colors. But I love how you can preview what it looks like after you change one thing. It helps a lot! _________________ "One good thing about music, when it hits you feel no pain" -Bob Marley |

Yeah, the live preview is the best addition, followed by the opaque tables, I think.
I got on here as soon as it went up and it wasn't slow at at first. After about an hour it started bogging down A LOT, so it must be getting a lot of traffic tonight. Hopefully it clears up during the week. |

Being able to enter custom colours is on my todo list for the colour picker, trouble is we ran into some problems shortly before release time so I never managed to get it implemented as fixing the problems took priority. Rest assured you'll be able to do it shortly though
I'm not quite sure if by saying the new generator is slow you mean slow to load or slow to use. At the moment the site is getting hammered pretty badly with everyone trying out the new generator, and as it is twice the size of the old one it will take a little patience although this should slowly get better as traffic goes back to normal. If you mean it is slow when you're changing colours and stuff, it's probably due to the generator using a lot more javascript than the old one to do things like the live preview. If you have a slow computer that just can't handle it you can try disabling the live preview with the checkbox at the top left, this should speed things up a bit for you.
We're glad everyone likes the new site, we put a lot of effort into making it great for all of you. By using the countdown timer we kind of screwed ourselves because we had to get it done and didn't manage to implement everything, so expect a few extra things over the next few days  |

You two are really quite awesome. Gosh, mygen is light years ahead of what it was when I first started checking the site out.
Not to mention, light years ahead of ALL other myspace generators.  |
