SOURCE CODE:
BLACK TEXT version
-----------------------------------------
:devYOUR_USERNAME:
YOUR NAME

YOUR_COUNTRY_NAME
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting
industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy
text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type
and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five
centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially
unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets
containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing
software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
WHITE TEXT version

You mean the "lorem ipsum" - part? I've put in my content there but it still didn't work :/

yes the "lorem ipsum" - part sorry. Hmm..that's strange. Have you checked the codes again for any tag missing?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yep, I checked it over and over again... I really have no idea anymore how I could make it work.

hello again!! <3 so what would you say the size limit should be for the ID image? I cannot get mine to show up for anything!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
having an image of width 400-500px is safe to use.

:/ I tried that now but all I get is a square part image of my background url that covers a part of the box with the dA - standard username etc behind it... (I'm using no ID image so far) ... looks like this: [link]
I used the white text version. When I try to remove the code part for the ID image, the content (my likes and all the stuff) shows up in the box again but my background image covers it all (I now discovered that I made it too small but it still covers everything..)

It is perfectly normal. You just need to copy the existing content and re-write your content in the "Lorem Ipsum.." part of the code. The code puts the image as an overlay over the existing content.

I did exactly that, I copied my content and put it into the "lorem ipsum" - section ... what the widget also does is to shorten my background image down again as soon as it reaches the borders ... >.< I gave it up -.-°
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Shorten your bg image?
You need to re-check you codes.

I made everything fit, I checked the code... nothing -.- I think my profile is cursed or something xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha there's nothing like cursed profile!
There is something wrong with the code that you've entered for sure.

Hm maybe I'll try to make an ID pic and then try it again, I didn't use that with my first tries, maybe that was the reason...

correcure - I had the right width of the background image..

I don't understand Deviation URL because when I right-click my DA ID picture, it just shows :
Save image as...
Copy image URL
Copy image
Open image in new tab.
There's no option for copy link location

Choose "Copy image URL"

👍: 0 ⏩: 1
have you tried with firefox for the same?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
no, I do not have firefox

Nah. Google chrome should do just fine. The context menu link in chrome says "Copy Image URL"

Why does my text come white all the time, even if I use the black link?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Black link? You mean to say the black text code? It should work.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes. c: If I use it, it always shows the white text instead of black. -.-"
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh I gotta check it then. I'll check it and if there's something wrong happening with the code then I'll update them.

Try to follow it step-by-step. It will work!

I have a problem. I simply cannot get my picture to fit the ID box! And my box isn't that large either! I've seriously tried enlarge my picture (like 9000x14400) but this causes my computer to crash due to the size. It just won't fit and I'm not sure what to do...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Did you try using an image-link for your deviantID with a small image?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh, I don't mean the ID, I mean the base background, and yes I did try using a small version of my Deviant ID, but to no avail ^ ^"
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You do not need such a huge resolution image like as you mentioned 9000x14400 just about 1200xsomthing is just fine. Btw, are you putting breaks in your text as mentioned in the tutorial?
