Yeah your sig is too large atm, try adding this into your code and see how it goes:

overflow:auto; background-repeat:no-repeat;

That'll add in a scroll bar and prevent the background from repeating. To learn more about the overflow property go here.

Better do it quick or a mod will come with an orange sticker and slap it on your sig - It's too big (I'd hate to state the obvious :P ) and I just don't like the mario pic for some reason, meh, it's your choice after all :)

Hi. Can someone please help me out? I'm trying to get th box in my signature to be a bit more to the right and a bit lower. I'd also like to center the image without messing the whole thing up. Here's the code:

Code:

[cd=width:530px;height:330px;cursor: crosshair;border:1px solid #a7dab; background-image: url("http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/9369/wg9.png");]
 
[cd=width:180px;height:180px;cursor: crosshair;border: dashed 1px #148780 ;background-color: #d5f2ee; Align: Left;]WonderGirl

You first add the BBcode of Center and then you use the margin-left code to change the position of the box. For example, I used "margin-left: -315px;" to move the box 315 px spaces backwards (it's a negative value).

The code is:

Also, I fixed up the code. You shouldn't use capitals in the actual code; small letter are fine. Furthermore, quotes should be used after the "cd=" and a space should be after the css statement (so width:[space]530px;) and the semi-colon.

jigglyppuff8 · May 30, 2010

Negative margin-left is just margin-right. :P

abnegation · May 30, 2010

Unless you've used margin-right in the same div already of course ;)

How would you guys feel about Video Tutorials? People showing you how things work on PC (CSS and such) through youtube?

donavannj · May 30, 2010

I think that's a very interesting idea, but I don't really have the time ~~or the skill~~ to make the videos.

Serene Grace · May 30, 2010

It's gonna be Gav and I so far; then we'll recruit some more if we need!

OMG Gavin, I'm gonna film one now. :]

jigglyppuff8 · May 30, 2010

I might be interested in helping with some stuff. Anything in particular?

abnegation · May 30, 2010

YAY haha nice one Mooji. Basically, we'll just cover some areas of CSS or methods of using some codes on PC. That might be using the anchor links properly or it could be how to use text-shadow or something. It's basically up to your own innovation so if you have an idea just make a video. Just let myself or Serene Grace know and we'll be happy to have you on board.

abnegation · May 31, 2010

You've done the background-image property wrongly. This is what you should have at the start:
[div="background-image:url('http://img197.imageshack.us/img197/2350/backgroundshop.png');

That's what we call HTML, which is not enabled on PC. Though if you wish to make that image a background you shoul read some tutorials on the first page... But the code would be:
[div="background-image:url('http://i994.photobucket.com/albums/af64/locoroco_01/arceus-732463.jpg');"][/div]
In PC's CSS tags. That's all you're doing with what you posted though it's not very useful unless you know CSS.

Also PkmnTrainerYellow you are excepted. Best of luck finding yourself a tutor!

Alternative · Jun 13, 2010

Just a small question.
What code would I use for the placement of a scrollbar, so it doesn't go the whole page, sort of like your current signature Abnegation.

abnegation · Jun 13, 2010

Well the scroll bar property is overflow:auto; (which is what I'm using) but to ensure it doesn't go anywhere it shouldn't, you must put in the width and height.
So something like this:

Or something along those lines.

Hybrid Trainer · Jun 13, 2010
