I know I'm reposting but really need help figuring this out.

OK, I've tried going through every post - but after awhile it gets confusing (I went through over 20 pages worth).

Simply put - I tried using the codes on the first page - I've been a member for less than a month - so prob have the newest version of the profile. I've already started with a custom CSS page - and the basics seem to work. But for some reason I can't get the individual backgrounds for the boxes to work. ie: wishlist, comments, friends, etc...

I have pictures already stored online that I am trying to use - but it won't work - please advise.

What I need is the basic code for 1 section & then the naming of the other sections - I can figure out the rest from there.

Also if possible I would like to somehow figure out how to keep using my custom layout but, regain my 3rd column that I had in the Gaia default layout.

Dude, I can't put a scrollbar in my custom sections (I can work out about me and comments JUST FINE.), what can I do?

Are you using the custom ID? If not, click 'View Source' on your profile and get the custom ID's. (Ctrl + F: custom) Then use the id's like the header name. (ie, #id_custom_00000 {background....... )

Everything in bold is for replacement. smile

If you don't know how or don't want to hit the View source, you might be able to hover over the header in edit mode and see the 5-digit ID in a pop-up box. (No guarantees tho. sweatdrop )

I hope this helps. sweatdrop

For the background of the header, use the following code:

#id_section title_panel h2 {background: url(image link); }
(You can also place no-repeat after the image link (with no commas or anything in between) for a cool effect. 3nodding )

I hope this helps

Hello Everyone,

I am having trouble removing Gaia's preset Themes (Crime Scene). I have a new background in mind, but when I apply it and then save the profile, it reverts back to Gaia's Theme. Is there a code or a setting where I can remove Gaia's garbage theme? See my profile for reference.

Also, my CSS Codes are:

.media_panel embed{width:0px; height:0px;}

html
{
background: url(http://i196.photobucket.com/albums/aa203/Wicked_Creations_2007/Other Stuff/Layouts/th_skulls-30.jpg)
width: 1140px;
height: 1280px;
}

#header
{
display: none;
}

.panel
{
background: #A9A9A9;
}

*,a
{
color: #000000;
}

.panel h2{
background: #000000;
color: #ffffff;
}

.comments_panel .style1 dd .avatar
{
display: none;
}

#header
{
display: none;
}


If you see any errors, please let me know. I also wanted to know if I can minimize the Comments to 5 on my profile. I tried to remove their Avatars on the Comment panel, but they are still there.

Uhm, if you copied and pasted that code directly from your profile, try adding a semicolon ( wink after your background url.

            html
            {
            background: url(http://i196.photobucket.com/albums/aa203/Wicked_Creations_2007/Other Stuff/Layouts/th_skulls-30.jpg);

Weird, it did not show that semicolon on the forum, but it is definitely on my profile.

Hmm. I thought that maybe that's what affected the background change... Have you tried using the URL feature for your background? (I had to do that for my last profile because it was a bit glitchy. neutral )

Try adding this line to your coding, let me know if it works.
body {background: url(http://i196.photobucket.com/albums/aa203/Wicked_Creations_2007/Other Stuff/Layouts/th_skulls-30.jpg) width: 1140px; height: 1280px; }

Yes, I appreciate your help in this. I just tried the line and I have tried the URL method instead of the CSS and I end up with the same result. Its like Gaia's template overrides my custom codes.

It shows.
Sometimes you have to use both the html and the body code, but I have no idea what's up with it. sad Have you tried leaving the code as just the background? confused (html {background: url();} )


What do you mean it shows?

Yeah, I removed the px size and it removes the crime scene but when I ultimately save the profile, it shows back up.

No, turns out it was the spaces in my url. Also %20 does not work as a substitute. Final result would be to not use an album that has spaces. thanks
