CypherVisor In reply to Mi-Rin [2013-05-11 06:08:10 +0000 UTC]

It depends on the monitor that you are viewing. It will be different for different users because screen resolution changes from monitor to monitor.

Normally you can use 800px width image though.

I've tried, but all it did was make the words go above the picture or donation pool...

CypherVisor In reply to JinxxCat [2013-05-11 06:09:12 +0000 UTC]

You can't use this in the donation pool.

And you just need to copy the existing content and re-write your content in the "body text here.." part of the code to get all your previous content come on top of the bg.

Is there anyway to change the colour of the box so it's not blue or do you know any other good things to put in custom boxes? I just got a pm a few hours ago and I'm not sure what to put in it. XD
