You need to use the entire code and not only the IMAGE link in your box.
The code is provided in the description. It looks like this:

I need more space inside the box, but I just can't find the code to do it lol, I saw that this one is a "generic box" isn't there a "big box" or something ? ;a;

To increase the size of your custombox. Use
tags at the bottom of the codes as many times you want.

how do you get the custom box?

You need Premium membership for it.

My friend sent me the code, I have no idea where he found it lol

A custom box, you need Premium Membership!

The way I do it, you have to stretch a file or image in order for it to stretch to its length as well. Like on my page, I have a squashed image in order to tell you what the boxes are, and that they are stretched because of the image!

I am not the owner, but i am sure that would work if you use smaller messages! If you intend to make your custom boxes long, it would be a better idea to have a larger box <3

Try to find a different image that is more vertical instead of horizontal, as that is the problem. <3 I could help you, if you like.
