Description LIVE PREVIEW | View stock images used

Want to customize the photo? You can! The instructions are after the boring instructions

INSTRUCTIONS: To edit the pop-out sidebar, click the 'edit skin' link on the upper left of the journal edit page. Then, in the lower text box you'll find <SUP> tags. Anything you put between them will show up in the sidebar. You can edit the two links and the message, or erase it all and put stamps, plz-emotes... anything.

There isn't any HTML you need to remember, but if you like:
  • Use two bold tags to make a heading, or three bold tags for a bigger heading with an underline.
  • Wrap your thumbs in <div class="feature">...</div> to have them formatted differently.
  • <blockquote> gets a little dotted border on the left


Changing the photo is easily done -
  • grab the template and overlap the man with your own images.
    When you paste your images into the template, you don't have to be super accurate - just make sure to get it centred over the sample photos. The photo frame will crop the extra bits out for you.
  • Save the file and upload it to the net so you can link directly to it in the CSS.
    You could submit it to your scraps, but make sure to get the URL of the actual image, and not just what's in the address bar when you view your deviation.
  • In the CSS, find the line beginning with .photo_ (it's near the top) and replace the URL in the background property with a link to your replacement image.
  • ???
  • ...PROFITEROLE!





  • update, 27th May '09 deviantART now replaces any links to my userpage/gallery/etc with YOUR username, which is cool, but broke the link that pointed to the stock images. I've fixed that by using an URL shortener.

    update, 18th May '09 fixed the alignment in the attribution and stock footer text, fixed skin so that moods list works top and bottom, and added support for Internet Exploder - though the hover effects can't be fixed because IE sucks.

    update, 6th May '09 styled the attribution footer, added background colour to the photo, so if background (man) doesn't load (when people change it) it's not transparent.

    I like this skin a lot! I don't really need the tab so I went ahead and removed some of the stuff and made it a feature tab. I might put some silly picture there so when people stumble upon it ,its me making a face or something lol!

    Hi, I'm not sure I understand how to do the tags. I don't understand the instructions. Where do I find the place to go to, to make those tags with a heading underline... the rest after that I know how to, but how do I access the edit mode/CSS?
