    Background images for VMs, profile, etc. It's 99% photoshop made, or you can find an image somewhere online (photobucket for example) and you can adjust it a bit for your profile. In order to add background images to use for your profile, you have to create a separate Profile Album that stores all of your images to be used for your profile. PC only accepts PokeCommunity picture urls for profile design.

    But anyways, profiles designs rock. This was one of the features I didn't expect to get when I donated back in....2010 lmao. I don't take advantage...when I think of a good profile design, I use it. But right now, my space profile is awesome. <3
     
    I was a total noob with designing profiles when I first became Supporter, I didn't even know I had to make an album entirely for profile designing. But I did like having these extra benefits so I guess I was pretty excited when I got Supportered last October because back before I became Supporter my profiles usually turned out terrible and now my profile looks great, all because I learned by looking at other Supporters' profiles for ideas.
     
    For the gradients and stuff, you can do that in CSS too, there's special apps for it.

    In my opinion that's a lot more fun because it really cuts down on

    though it's a tradeoff because your code will have "background-gradient-adfsuhr893%.spot.asdf.mijlk" all over and it'll be a pain.

    I tend to hate everything with profiles etc. because I have to

    I haven't included images and stuff yet simply because I can't think up a profile style I like. I browse around occasionally for backgrounds/images but Im picky, so I havent really used any supporter exclusive things for that as of yet.

    I have the same issues too, I can usually never find images good enough if I'm going for the whole image covering profile background thing. But at least I'm happy with my current one, because I hadn't used the "spacer" feature until now, and it actually looks really nice. I often used Tumblr for my image sources, though sometimes I may use DeviantArt or Pixiv as well. For patterns, like the black flowers I have on mine, I found a good site on Tumblr but I'm keeping it a secret or else everyone wants to steal my idea lol.

    And it's quite funny I knew supporters were able to have extra profile customization because when I was still new I actually got jealous of said perks that loads of supporters had.
