I'm curious: are you going to update this since the new devID doesn't exactly work well with this?

okay so far this tutorial is working for me but my image ends up being on the side and only a piece of the background is showing. I understand you're supposed to put BR but is it in brackets or just br , lower case? or upper case

how i can add as many text as I have in my id right now in that customized id box?
I put text and all, but it shows only a little of the pic I have and not even half of all of the text....how i can fix that?

Zelir [2011-07-21 19:02:18 +0000 UTC]

It puts my image to the side rather than the center and then even when using < br > It doesn't show text.

Does it put the image to the center of the Background image?

I suppose you'd have to do a bit more, then. C/p(copy paste) the br's you have, if it goes over the image then just cut down the number of br's c:.

Ohh thank you. Do you know how to work the deviation box background, too? Thought I'd ask, since Im having trouble with that, too.

Like having trouble putting the background image? The first link that's supposed to be given is the background. Or is there something else wrong with it? /curious

EclipseTheUmbreon In reply to RedStereoVirus [2011-07-09 03:17:31 +0000 UTC]

Well what happened is the deviation is tiny and the text isnt showing up. Ill give you a screenshot if you need it.

Hmm...Try enlargening the deviations size in the deviation itself. Maybe near to the same size as the image? Or half of it. Or maybe just...a bit bigger. The text should show up..that's odd...Hmm..Copy paste the code, I'll take a look at it and fix the glitches if I can.

EclipseTheUmbreon In reply to RedStereoVirus [2011-07-09 03:57:43 +0000 UTC]

I cant really enlarge the deviation size without it messing up the picture.

Try replacing the previous link with [link] . The size was wayyy too small. Putting it larger would make it fit. You can always resize it on Iaza if it is too big. ^^

MissLunaRose In reply to ??? [2011-06-10 12:46:22 +0000 UTC]

Thank you for making this. I'm a little confused, though. I entered the code, but the background picture covered my deviantID picture and probably the text. (It was mysteriously absent.) I tried it twice; it didn't work either time.

Also, if the image is only posted on dA, does the first link (blue) also correspond to the URL of the deviation page?

CypherVisor In reply to MissLunaRose [2011-06-12 16:28:37 +0000 UTC]

Well, the code WILL put the background image over your previous content in the box. You need to put the URL links in the code properly to get your images back as it was earlier.

"You need to put the URL links in the code properly to get your images back as it was earlier."
Could you please explain? I don't understand what I'm doing that's making this not work.

This is what I'm copying and pasting into the code. (I removed the http:// part right here so that it wouldn't turn into a link.)
BACKGROUND-URL: luna--rose.deviantart.com/gallery/?catpath=scraps#/d3ih8os
DEVIATION-URL: [same as above]
DEVIATION-IMAGE-URL: th01.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/i/2011/160/b/8/custom_backdrop_no__1_by_luna__rose-d3ih8os.jpg

All these links lead to the desired background image.

Does this tell you the problem? Is/are one/two of these supposed to correspond to the picture in my deviantID? Please help.

CypherVisor In reply to MissLunaRose [2011-06-17 12:20:09 +0000 UTC]

the background url should link to an image......not its url! and deviation-url and deviation-url is ok.

MissLunaRose In reply to CypherVisor [2011-06-19 21:06:32 +0000 UTC]

I put the image URL in for BACKGROUND-URL and it still put it in front of my text and picture. (This happened whether I put the code before or after the text and deviantID image.) Is this what I'm supposed to do?
