Ok so i am having some trouble with CSS and such. How do you change the background? Cause I don't get it XD And can you create a text box in like a bio and such? As always, your help is much appreciated Smiling

I'm not sure with a text box,

I'm not sure with a text box, but here is how to change the background:

To make a simple background with one color, copy this:

body{*background:COLOR HERE;*}, erase the asterisks(*) and then add the font and all that stuff.

To make a background with a colorful background from a picture you got from a website, do this:

body{*background:url('INSERT URL HERE') fixed repeat*}}, again without the asterisks.

For example, here are two codes I stole from two of my character's bios:

body{*background:url('http://www.core.form-ula.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/elephant-skin-663376-sw.jpg') fixed repeat*}}

body{*background:#000000;font:15px century gothic;color:#ABABAB;padding-top:20px; padding-bottom:20px; padding-right:120px; padding-left:140px;*}

I'll copy the code

I'll copy the code again:
body{*background:COLOR HERE;*}

See where it says COLOR HERE? Put a color code there.

Here has some color codes to choose from.

You also put the code UNDER

You also put the code UNDER THE CUT on your post. Make sure it is under the cut or it messes with the whole category you put it in.
