Do you get confused as to who's profile your on, because they all look the same? Do you wish that you could personalize your profile with your favorite theme? Does the color gray make you want to vomit? Well if you answer yes to any of the questions above, please keep reading, and I will tell you how you can quickly change your profile page to showcase your personal taste! Recently I wanted to find a way to change the look of my profile, to showcase my interest and show my personality. This first started with the Status bar located below your Kompoz URL. I started out by playing with the color and font style of what I would type in this field. I first looked up on a search engine "color and font codes". I got several links to HTML codes. Well I am not a computer genious, and I hate reading.. so I just wanted something quick and easy. One website that makes it very easy to understanding how to do a color and font code is Iron Spider HTML Code Help this site takes the guess work out of it and you can just start playing around with it. What? You don't want to even visit the site you want me to tell you? Ok then, I will give you a cheat that you can just play with. The Title for this blog has HTML coding on it. This is the way it looks: <font color="purple" font size="5" font face="verdana" > <i>Snazz Up Your Profile!</font> Now, you can play around with all of the "quoted" areas. For example maybe you want the color "blue" and you want the font size "3" and you want the font to be "arial" and you want the text to be <bold>. Your HTML should now look like this <font color="blue" font size="3" font face="arial" > <b>Snazz Up Your Profile!</font> You can play around all you want but remember to always have </font> behind your text. The colors are endless but may not be supported on all browsers or on Kompoz.
After I got bored with changing the colors of my text, I was curious if you could change the layout of your Kompoz Profile. I did a search on the internet for free layouts (myspace), and I tried a few of the codes in the Status window. Unfortunately, they would not work. However, I found that you can change the background of your profile. You know on the sides that ugly gray color bars staring you in the face.. yah that one, eww change it! Do a search on the internet for free myspace background codes and find something you like. Copy the code and paste it in your Status window on your profile page! It's that easy! What? You don't want to search through millions of webpages for a music theme background? Well your in luck! I will give you the link to the website I used for my background. Premade Layouts.com I have started you on page 464, because I found that the few pages following it has the most music related backgrounds. Ok, now that you changed your background, you notice that under the text you have typed announcing your status, that there is some extra typing in there. Yep it looks like crap. It's so that they can advertise so if someone is interested they can click the link. But I hate garbage, so I deleted it, but how? Ok.. here we go.. The code for My Background is this: <style><!-body{background: url(http://www.premadelayouts.biz/userpics/backgrounds/music_13.gif) fixed}--></style><div><a href="http://www.premadelayouts.biz/" target="new">Background By Hot Myspace Backgrounds</a></div> <a href="http://www.premadelayouts.biz/" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.premadelayouts.biz/img/button.gif" style="position:absolute; left:0px; top: 0px;" border="0"></a> Everything that is underlined you can delete. The only command that you need is that first half linking to the URL. That is it! Now when you save, you wont have any of that garbage in there! I hope that you found this blog helpful, and I hope that you too will be able to show us your personal taste! Your an individual here at Kompoz, and you should show your style! -Jessica Rasche Thank-You to Raf for suggesting I post a blog on how to personalize your profile.
