Inside the mind of Kari
March 9th, '07 - Mini-Profile Guide (Old School)
Most information here is taken from this guide and is explain by me.

The Parts Of A Code>>

Let's say you have this code::
#commonFriends{display:none;}

The red part is the section ID. This can be changed to #about, #friends, etc.

The blue part is what you want the section ID to do.
In this case, the code will make the ""Common Friends"" go away.

Making A Code
Making A Code>> Step One
--> Choose a section ID.
Walk through//
_______h2 --> The header of a section. For example::
#comments h2.
The part where it says 'Comments'
.section h2.
Makes ALL the headers do the same thing.
So, if you had this code: .section h2 {background: transparent url ('http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v612/kjarzecki/Gaia%20Stuff/BH-KarineC.jpg') repeat;} That would make all the headers have the same image.
Notes::
The main header, the one usually that has a house in it, is not affected by the .section h2 codes.
~~~~~~~~
#________ ---> Base of a section ID.
For example::
#about
That would be the about section ID.
Notes::
Make sure it exists. For example, this code:
#what my friends said {display: none;}
wouldn't make sense. #comments .caption {display: none;}
would work. CSS codes is like a mini language.
~~~~~~~~
Making A Code>> Step Two
-->Choose what you want to do.
Walk through//
Let's say you want a code with will make the background for the signature repeat.
Let's start off with this:
#signature {background
Try doing what you already know.
Since I've already given you the code for a background, try applying it to this code.
You should end up with this:
#signature {background: transparent url ('urlhere') repeat;}
There you go! ^^
