How Do You Customize Your Myspace Page

[Musicman408]

So I have had an account with myspace for awhile to check out my friends, but hadn't actually set it up and decorated it. I was just wondering how you one downloads pics, and gets those polls and the background and stuff. All help would be great.

Much Love,
Ethan

Well...on other people's pages, there is usually a link to where they got the setup. Like "This layout was designed at..." etc... Usually what happens is people copy and paste a code from the layout website to where they edit their profile.

[DrummerDeanna]

Or just type in MySpace Layout in google - that gives you lots of pages that offer easy MySpace makeover pages...

The operative word is easy - if I can do it - anyone can...good luck.

[Musicman408]

Thank you all for the help...:thumbsup:

Okay - just read around the site! They all say where to past the code. If you can't be bothered then it's simple - paste it into the "about me" section of your profile in edit mode.

Haha, so am I! :p

What you usually do is copy the code that was generated when you picked the layout you wanted. Then you paste it in "About Me" section under Edit Profile. I think that's how most people do it. :nod:

I'm glad to get these tips. I've been trying to figure out all week how to customize my page.

:laugh: I maintain that if I can do it anyone can :nod:

The sites I used to customize really spelled it all out for me....if y'all are using sites that don't...well that's odd.

Of course I deleted the ad code for the site - so I can't even tell you which one I used anymore.

Which reminds me - if you guys want to know how to erase the ad that usually comes with your layout - that's pretty easy too....so you don't have a huge "PIMP YOUR PAGE" ad under "about me"....

[Miss Vicky]

I took the easy way out on mine. A friend of mine who had been using MySpace for awhile saw that I had gotten a profile but hadn't customized it. She yelled at me to come over to her house to fix the problem and, with some input from me, she designed it for me.

Once you get the basic layout done, you can customize it further with just a little basic html.

[Musicman408]

Do any of you all remember where you all got your layouts, or have any suggestions on good ones??? Are there any Stevie/FM layouts???

Much Love and thanks for all the help, you all are too kind,
Ethan

[DrummerDeanna]

Well I don't - seriously though - just go to google and type in MySpace layout - and you'll get a plethora of choices - all that offer layouts.

Or just troll around MySpace - most customized pages say something like "I got my layout at Pimppage" or something....then click the link and it'll take you there.

Ok guys, I have a relly cool layout, but I was wondering how you get polls on your page???

Much Love,
Ethan

why don't you find someone who has a poll on his/her myspace and ask that person? :rolleyes:

[foxyluva]

Its like talking to a brick wall, isn't it :laugh:

[Musicman408]

The reason why I haven't asked anyone is because I want it to be a surprise when my page is "officially" open.....:nod:

Much Love,
Ethan

[Musicman408]

Any of you all have any suggestion???

Much Love,
Ethan

[ryan8472]

I dunno, I'm not very good at this kind of thing, so I just made mine a different color and that was the end of my MySpace personalizing. :p

[Musicman408]

Ok so now I have my song picked out (Rhiannon) but there is a little problem. You know when you first get to someone's profile, the music starts playing immediately. With mine, you have to press the play button for it to start. I tried a couple of different songs, and it was the same thing. Anyone know anything about this???

Much Love,
Ethan

That sounds SO filthy/ :lol: :xoxo:

[Musicman408]

OK SO I added Rhiannon, but this morning I went and the song had been deleted, as had the profile I got it from. Is there a way to add a song to my profile that isn't on Myspace, beacause that is just frustrating.

Much Love,
Ethan

p.s I think i would definately have to add you all as friends, if you wanted it.

I don't think there is a way to do that. If there is, I'm clueless on the subject. :shrug:

P.S. - Add me. :p

[DrummerDeanna]

I think the only way to add a non-MySpace song is to start your own MySpace Music page.

And no, I don't know how to do that - they address it in MySpace FAQs.

Well, I attempted to add you, Dirty Sanchez..... however, since you've gone off to college and gotten a swelled head and made yourself all private and stuff, I can't add you.

Jeezus, have you gotten that much booty call since you became legal????

:rolleyes: :p

[skcin]

:shocked: I just tried to add Ryan too - it's like breaking into a f*cking fortress. Never mind, you freak!

[Rickypt]

Tower, and others, please consider adding me even though my page is totally boring. :D

I added you, Sweet Ryan.

My page is a yawner, too. Then again, I don't think My Space is really designed for old married Fogies. My MySpace is http://www.myspace.com/21881084

No, I just kept getting strange creepy guys trying to add me, and it became annoying, so I made everything private. :nod:

You should have just added Strandie and Jizzy instead of going to all that trouble...

No strange, creepy guys ask ME to add them!! :mad: :mad: :mad:


































Well, duh!!! :laugh: :laugh:

That Strand just didn't want to take no for an answer huh?

[ontheEdgeof17]

Jizzy

Ok. Everytime I see that word, I laugh like a little school boy. :laugh:

[ryan8472]

That Strand just didn't want to take no for an answer huh?

Nope. And he kept calling himself Marco, from Bridgeport, CT. :shrug: :p

[skcin]

Nope. And he kept calling himself Marco, from Bridgeport, CT. :shrug: :p

He just wanted you to answer "POLO!" :wavey:

Did I tell you guys about the weirdo who PMd me there? It said "my wife doesn't know I'm on here. You look like an angel." :laugh: Yeah, that got deleted fast. Freak.

Yeah, those are the kind I would have PM me too. That, or "you look sweet, we should chat." -_____- :rolleyes:

[Rickypt]

Then again, I don't think My Space is really designed for old married Fogies.

It's not really designed for old, single Fogies, either. But I've already received an email from an old friend from New Orleans who I lost touch with several years ago.

Any chance you're going to Vegas?

:eek: My friend Susan is constantly getting odd messages like that from men...


Did I ever tell y'all about the creepy MySpace guy who tracked me down via Google and started phone harassing me at work? That was horrble...

I've had a good run lately though, no skeezes.

I think my Stevie concert going days are over. My Hope-o-meter is all worn out.
