sum 1 please get me a tutor

In the time you've been looking for a tutor you could have learned from the many resources there are on the first post as well as all over the net.

My advice would be to look for a tutor on the list who has a free space and PM them kindly asking them to teach you as not all the tutors check the thread for updates. As I've said, I don't have the time to assign all the students to tutors nor do I think it's fair that people don't get the choice so you're best off using your initiative and looking for one rather than waiting and posting a few times asking for the same thing. So try that or use the tutorials in which we have in abundance.

It's called an "Anchor Link" and the button on the advanced editor looks like this (

It is explained here.

I've got a small question.
Lately I've seen people with a shadow under their text. Does anyone know the code for that?

It's called text shadow.

Code:

text-shadow: #000000 1px 1px 1px;

Action:
Example


Obviously you can change the color and size of the text by changing what I've put in. Play around with that.

Just noting that text shadow only works on mainstream browsers that support that code (eg Firefox, Safari, Opera etc..) so, if you want to make a signature that works for all browsers with text shadows, stick with images until CSS4 is properly implemented in all browsers (good luck waitin'.)

I don't even need CSS for that. Just BBCode.

Text over text is just line-height:0%; followed by a padding-left:3px;

Preferred Teaching Method: Either PMs or e-mail will work fine for me.

How much you wish to know: A lot? xD; I'm already fairly familiar with the basics of CSS, so I'd like some help with learning more complicated coding.

All applicants accepted, I shall update the list soon.

However, it is up to both the students and the tutors to take the initiative in finding a counterpart. So if there are any tutors willing to take on another student drop them a VM/PM or post here to inform them, as for students, have a look to see -in past posts- if any tutors have open positions and possibly contact them and see whether or not they are available for tuition. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask me.

urls don't work well with background images for some reason. Might have something to do with the fact that they're in the background. Instead, just get rid of background-image completely and use good ol' fashioned img url tags. Then use "position: relative; bottom:160px;" to move the css box, that would be below the image, 160 pixels from the bottom so that it would be aligned from the top.

Alternatively, quote this post, steal the code and don't learn a thing. Learning is for chumps. >:C
