How do I add MySpace background codes to my profile?

I saw your earlier article about how to change the background color of a MySpace profile (see Change background color of MySpace profile) but that's not what I want to do. I want to actually add a background picture. I've seen it done on tons of profiles - how the heck do I change my MySpace backgrounds myself?

Dave's Answer:

I'll show you how to do this, but be warned up front that it's not the easiest task in the world because you need to actually figure out what background picture you want to use then actually upload that to a different server, not MySpace. There are a bunch of options, but I'm going to use Photobucket for this particular example.

Your first step, therefore, is to find an image that you like and upload it onto Photobucket, as I explained in the earlier article How can I host images on the Web?

Once you've uploaded an image, you'll be able to see how to reference it a few different ways, like this:

Subtle MySpace Background codes on Photobucket

The value that we need for this particular MySpace trick is the Url, but just leave that window alone for now and pop open another one with your MySpace profile. Click on "Edit Profile" next to your picture and find your "About Me" profile box. Scroll to the very bottom of that box and add the following CSS code exactly as shown:

You type that in exactly as shown into the About Me box, after all the material you've written, replacing where it shows photobucket url with the value of the "Url" field on Photobucket itself. In my case, when I use the subtle background graphic shown earlier, it looks like this:

The result is pretty attractive:

but perhaps too subtle! There are a couple of easy tweaks we can make to the CSS to make it more generally interesting, then we'll look at some advanced tweaks. First, add the following lines and you can "fix" the graphic so that the text content scrolls but the picture's fixed:

(for simplicity, I'm going to use 'photobucket url' again, but you know that you have to replace that bit with the actual Url from your uploaded photobucket picture or whatever other picture you choose to use, right?)

If you don't want "fixed" for the background attachment, you should specify "scroll", which is what you're used to seeing on Web pages. You can turn off the cookie cutter repeat in both the horizontal and vertical direction by specifying background-repeat of "repeat-x" only, "repeat-y" only or "no-repeat", and you can specify how the background graphic should line up in the window with pixel offsets from the top left (as I do here), percentages (0%,0% is the top left, 100%,100% is the bottom right) or even specific words, top, center or bottom followed by a comma and left, center or right.

Putting that all together, if you have an image you want centered, not repeating, fixed, you could use background-attachment: fixed; background-repeat; no-repeat; and background-position: center,center;

Still, what most people seem to do with background graphics is to have the image "bleed through" the individual elements of the profile, so let's do that too. Be warned, however, this is where your profile can become darn unreadable darn fast!

What I like to do is to have a sort of middle ground solution, with some areas retaining their default white background for readability while others have the background bleed through. This is so incredibly easy to do that you'll gasp! Just add three letters to the earlier CSS:

Can you see what I added? After the first "body" I added ", td" so that the background color of the 'table data cells' are also transparent. Here's what happens:

Ah, that's looking more like a typical crazy MySpace profile with a custom background graphic, isn't it? :-)

I know, you're dying to learn how to get rid of those annoying white background boxes so that all of your profile is shown against the background graphic, aren't you? This is just a few additional characters again: where we have "body, td" simply make it "body, td, table", like this:

The result is predictably a bit more hard on the eye, but nonetheless interesting:

Turns out that if you're willing to slog through all the possible tweaks and fiddles you can add to the CSS, there's a lot more you can do, and, of course, you can also use a far more dramatic background graphic or photograph than I have chosen for my own profile. I'll address these more advanced "div" tweaks a bit down the road!

Also, while I'm at it, I have a lot of additional MySpace Help here on the site and you can also become my friend by checking out my MySpace profile.

All your info on putting a pic on the background worked peachy, but when I center the pic with no repeat the remaining space on the side is a lite blue. How do i change that space to black?

Antoinette DePrima said, on September 1, 2008 2:39 PM:

Hi Dave, I sent a few questions but never received an answer. Please help.
I centered my comments and want to uncenter them. When I remove the code, the title goes back to the right hand side of my profile but all my comments disappear. Can you help me with this please.
Thank you so very much.

Okay Dave, this is my step-daughter's page and the picture on the background is what we want to get rid of. I've tried changing the background so many times and part of it changes but the picture of her and the boy is always still there. I can't figure out how to get rid of it. PLEASE HELP!!!!!

Dave Taylor said, on February 28, 2009 10:30 PM:

I have no idea how that's being included, Menda. The image is cached on MySpace at http://a941.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/11/ l_cde4d51141ea558da9f7c85fa5e32f9c.jpg so somewhere on the site there's a copy of the photo that's been uploaded. If you just go to your daughter's photo album and find the image, I'm guessing that it won't work as a background image. Please let us know what you figure out!

Goliard said, on March 3, 2009 1:22 PM:

Hey Dave. . .thanks so much for your efforts. Really appreciated. I've been trying to use your code to put a background on my page w/no success for a minute now. I put the code in at the end of "About Me," save it, then look at my profile. . .no background. When I go back to the Edit Profile page and look at the code again, it's mysteriously Disappeared? WHA? Interestingly, adding simple tags works fine. Either Myspace doesn't like the code & cuts it out after I try to use it, or it's never getting saved in the first place, for some reason. I'm pulling my hair out, so: Any ideas much Much appreciated!

Leo said, on March 28, 2009 6:01 AM:

I used a CSS code to add extra width space to my Myspace profile 2.0. I'm using a premade myspace theme in which I don't have the URL for. I only had to select the theme. I've tried to retrive the URL but was unsucessful. The problem I'm having is with the extra space I created. At the point which the background repeats is when the background starts to scroll with with my content. The initial part of the background doesn't stroll at all, which is the way I want the entire background to be. I want to do either two of the following things. Either expand my background to fill my entire page including the extra space I've created so that background doesn't look repeated. Or simply get the repeated part of the background to stop strolling with the content. I thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

Kurai said, on April 1, 2009 3:33 PM:

If you take a look at my current profile you can see the pic I want as my background. My only problem is that I want the pic to fit the WHOLE SCREEN, not tiled, noy a small pic in the center either.
I've tried many, many, many generator codes and layouts but the photo always shows up small (even the actuall photobucket pic is 1300pxl+ or whatever it stands for)

How do I get a photo to take up the entire backgrpound of my profile?

I can't get my head around html coding to do it, and a friend of mine mentioned some codec to insert saying ="100%" somewhere..
Any help please?

Dave, hi,

I've been trying to use a specific theme from the Myspace templates (the Gothic in particular), and just change the background picture with one of mine, but keep the rest of the elements. I used your code and it worked fine for a few months but now, all of the sudden, it just overrides my code for adding the background image. So I had to abandon the theme and do all the coding to display the page, but it doesn't have the same effect, as all the coding details don't seem to be applied in full. Do you have any suggestions regarding this problem? I certainly don't seem able to find my way around it.

Thanks

Chris

What can I do..? I have tried everything.

I've phoned the 'SFR' helpline but they don't have a clue!... Any ideas?.
Thanks, Andy

Dave, you are great. Thank you sooo much for creating your page to help people around the globe..I have one question- is there a way to put my background photo so that it feets the whole screen? The width of my photo doesn't cover the whole screen, so it repeats on the right side and I just want the whole photo as a background..and one more thing- is there a way that my liris pop out somewhere on my profile when someone plays my songs and how to do that? Thank you so much.. :)

Hi all,

I know I've seen (free) scripts that do this, but I can't find them….

(Please see the mock up (link below) for reference.)

On the left, under the "Table of contents" there is a drop down menu.

Nice clean lines, simple. The choices will show a line under it.

"contributing artist" will give the option to sort a-z or z-a

The solution has to be compatible with the list below; it should be able to sort the entries and their thumbnails.

This is on a linux server.

And of course we would love it if it was SEO friendly!

Hi,

I have been trying to get a custom photo onto my MySpace music page. Because it's a music page, MySpace don't give you any controls under "customise profile". It just sends you to the "edit profile" page. However they advised me how to get there by altering the URL up top, and I have been there, followed your exact formula and added my photobucket image between the brackets. When I press preview, my background image apears around the outside of the page, but when I submit and then go to my actual MySpace site, there is NO CHANGE. I have checked and double checked, used your formula about twenty times with the same result. I have even gone off and used a few other formulas I found online, but they all do the same thing, image visible in preview but not on my site. Can anyone help this poor luddite?
Regards, Chris
