I would also add HtmlCheatSheet since they have a lot of generators and gadgets there that can help those that aren't familiar with HTML. They also have a tab for CSS with various CSS generators and JS as well (if someone needs it for something else).

thesitewizard is another good source of learning, they have a page dedicated to CSS "How To's.

Of course the main go-to for any coding question should be w3schools.

I hope that others find these links helpful in making their profiles their own!

My favorites are:

GitHub —> https://github.com/
Stack Overflow —> https://stackoverflow.com/
Youtube has some great beginner tutorials as well if you learn better from videos.

hey, i'm having trouble figuring out how to change font size of just one bit of text on my profile.  I've tried using <font size=""></font> and a few other methods I used to use back in the day but nothing seems to be working.  Could u help me out?

@steb•wash


You want to add a style attribute within the HTML tag that you are trying to change the font of. For instance:

<p style=“font-size: 18px;”>Hello World</p>

^^this doesn't seem to be working for me.  after I save it, it just changes to this & no change is made to the size of my font:

<p style="“font-size:">text here</p>

What text are you trying to edit on your profile?

You must be careful to use the correct type of quotes,
Else wise the parser will see it and go "nope".

This “ is different than that "
That's why you see this “ incantation.

<p style="font-size:20px;">text here</p>

I really want to make the tables completely transparent but I’m not very good at coding any advice

It looks like you already figured it out,
but in case anyone else looking for the knowledge is without:

.details-table td:first-child,
.details-table td {
  background-color: transparent;
}

Yo, Nole I just used that transparent box code u commented and all it did was make my boxes white.  What do?

Hey steb•wash, it is so because your profile background is white,
You will need to target .profile and add rules to get it right.
If you look at this video you will see,
once you change .profile's background your tables will stand transparently.

https://tesserae.somnolescent.net/ is a really good general HTML/CSS tutorial too
You can also (possibly? i haven't tested) use https://transfonter.org/ to embed custom fonts, if you tick the "Base64 encode" option

Thank you for posting this. I am incredibly rusty on all this. I am able to edit and get the background photos to show up and then I am left with the stark white profile box in the middle. If anyone has suggestions I would be greatly appreciative. 


@twilight Sparkle. I was able to get the snowflakes to work. that's awesome

Nvm I am figuring it out slowly thanks to the videos Nole is posting

I might have missed it but what is the easiest way to change the font of the text above every box? Also I saw something about changing the background box colors but I tried with the code that someone posted (I cant remember who) but it didn't work. I'm so rusty, its been awhile so if anyone can help I'd appreciate it thanks!

It would work, but as soon as I would come back to my page or if anything changed on the website (for example, if I were to hit save on  something or refresh the page) it would just go back to the default.

Can anyone help with the coding to put in icons (gif squares) and blinkies? I've searched high and low and can't find anything on them. It was my favorite part of myspace and I cannot remember how to do it!!!
