Making a Myspace Profile with Div Overlays

If you haven’t first read how to turn everything off on your myspace profile, go here and read all about it. Then, come back and we’ll get started. I’ll wait…

Now that you’re up to speed on how the whole CSS thing works, and how to just hide everything, I’d recommend downloading WaxJelly’s myspace Practice Page so you don’t have to work in the black hole that is myspace’s live site. You can find the flat file here. Download it, unzip it, and us it to follow the instructions below.

    That’s awesome dude, but what happened to breaking it down and explaining what bits do what as you did in your last post? Would really help us ambitious novices…

    Using divs for myspace are pretty easy. You can actually place things exactly where you want them. First thing is thinking of the size of a box or area you want and where you want it at. Don’t forget to use the layer feature. You should be ok after that.
