Editing Profile Colours/Styles

[58Down]

Greetings! :yawn:

I was wondering how to edit my profile colour and style settings. I have seen other users profiles look quite nice, and I am DIEING to know how to do it.

I posted a quick question in the quick Q&A, but they gave me the wrong answer. I did try to go to Settings>Edit Profile, but I could not see any kind of style/colour settings.

Do you need a certain post count before you can?

Thanks for taking the time to help.. ^-^

You go on your Profile not Settings. Just go to your profile and should see a button that says "Customize My Profile" It will bring up an editor that will allow you to customize it to your liking. If you wish to use background images , you must make a profile album and upload the images to it before they can be used. Once you're done customizing, click Save.

I'd really love to get a background on my profile. HOW ON EARTH DO I DO IT?

First you must upload the background you wish to use to a profile album, then copy the URL from that. Go to your profile and click the button that says "Customize My Profile". The option to use a background should be under "General" next to "Page Background" click the color thing and you should see an option for using an image. Insert the URL there. Dont forget to save your settings when done editing your profile style.

And don't forget to make sure the text can be read over the chosen background. (Change the text color and size if needed.) Though, that's more of a preference thing I guess.
