Typically you can click and drag the image to a new tab, getting you the image address manually. :3c

Hmm does any one knows the code for group's custom box background? I tried using this one and it makes the background smaller than the box and unfitting. It also leaves the customizable text bellow the background's image.

CommissionReview In reply to cvbic [2016-12-22 02:13:17 +0000 UTC]

But it will reappear whenever you renew your membership because the settings are still saved.

I'm having problems with the sizing of the image and the text. The image has spaces all around it and the text goes past the image :/ I am using a custom box on my group page since I don't have core. Is that effecting it?

ImagineMyStars In reply to ??? [2016-08-11 22:16:26 +0000 UTC]

Okay, I;m kind of confused because my background kind of just stayed inside the tiny box and didn't expand at all.
See? (Its the box that says testing.): imaginemystars.deviantart.com/
Someone please explain what I'm supposed to do.

Helnoustuck In reply to ImagineMyStars [2016-08-17 22:13:59 +0000 UTC]

C A W   Duuno if you got it or not, but the reason why it's not expanding is because the background height is a bit too small. If you change the height of your background, then it'll expand until it reaches the end of the background height.
