Description Important
Please read the notes below to see the limitations on this code before you ask any questions!

The Custom User Boxes are a series of codes that allow you to customize your deviantART userpage. The code involved makes use of a glitch in deviantART, meaning that this code is not officially supported by deviantART, and may stop working correctly or entirely.

It is important to note that, due to the nature of this hack, this code can only be used by Premium Members of deviantART.

The Code


CONTENT HERE



How To Use It
Simply copy the code above and paste it into a Page Module on your userpage, modify it to your use, and it's ready to go!

Can be used in:
Custom Modules.

Cannot be used in:
Anywhere that is not a Page Module on deviantART. Cannot be used in Journals.
Cannot be used in any deviation module, such as the Featured Deviation or the Gallery Folder module! The Custom Background will always cover the deviations in that module, and there is no workaround.

Important Notes/Bugs
Cannot be used anywhere except in Custom Modules, see above.
This must be the first line of code in the Custom Module.
All of your other content, including other Custom User Boxes, must appear inside of the
CONTENT HERE
, otherwise it will be hidden behind the Custom Background
For advanced deviants, the Custom Background code can be used to make layers of backgrounds by reusing the first part of the code. They will appear on top of each other in the order you put the code. This is tricky though so don't try it unless you're confident with HTML.
There is no way to repeat or stretch a background, so you must make your background image large enough to cover the module yourself!
The image will always be aligned to the left side, there is no workaround to this.

I can help if you still need it.
Copy this:


CONTENT HERE



The part that says DIRECT LINK TO THE IMAGE FILE is the part where you put the image URL. So basicly- right click the image you want to use as the background and select "Copy image location" that's what you put there

CONTENT HERE is just where you type

How do you get that inner box inside of the custom box? ;-;

OspreySun In reply to Hagaluz [2013-02-11 13:23:29 +0000 UTC]

The green ones? You open a custom box and copy this code,

<*div class="altview h"*>

<*b>YOUR HEADER HERE, OR LEAVE BLANK

YOUR CONTENT HERE!



Then remove all the stars (*)

I hope this helps! <3

Sorry for the late reply, my internet died for a week! QnQ

Upload the image here, [link] , and select do not re size when the option is given.
Then, copy the direct link and add it to this code-

<*div class="floaty-boat"><*img"YOUR URL HERE!">
Remove the *s, and your good to go! <3

Right here,[link]
Just copy the direct link(found under the Links to share this image tag on the right side of the website) into the page code and you are good to go!

I believe their may be one work around to using it for a deviation module, why dont you just make transparent boxes in the texture where the deviations are? :3
