Ya I did Chris and it'* looking pretty tight. Those premade ones are cool to play with. And how I got started. Then I started tinkering with putting pics, animated gifs and, and embedded flash objects in between the individual codes. And moving tables around. I think the coolest thing I figured out was to get the comments full page at the bottom of the two rows. Want to go all flash some day.

There ya go, and just keep looking in the code for the name of the files you want to replace and soon you'll have the page modded the way you want. some things are a bitch, like falling objects cant hit flash Apps and such. And you have to watch not to make the page a mile wide.
Use
between what your changing and the original code so if the page crashes, you can find it easier. It all makes me want to go take a beginner course at the College if I wasnt so tied down..Things like falling objects have to be at the top of the code bewilder me. I just know how things work, not why.

With so much software available do you really need to even type HTML manually anymore these days?

They have editors, but dont allow you alot of the things I did. I took a premade layout and tweaked it around frame wise the way I wanted it , then stole the best of apps etc., plus my own, and figured how to make them all play well together. So along the way, even though i'm not sure the why of what I'm doing, I find hows that arent covered. I always like to tinker any way.

Gumball... you have no idea, Or the trouble I have to dodge all the time. It'* little wonder the site is always in hot water and I have to block alot after trying to get some girls to act 14. It'* really not the sites fault. America is losing touch with parenting in a big way

Thanks again . Like the Car, I get alot of personal satisfaction in seeing people enjoy my ides of style. I had alot of reservations about putting up a Myspace page, but they give you the freedom to do as you want and a huge audience to view your creations. I hope to keep learning and kick things up another notch. I would be Love to put visual 3D Rooms into the page to navigate around in. Does anybody here know any programs that could achieve that?
