Any tips and tricks?

trying to put gaps between paragraphs in my 'about me'

like

this

but its not having any of it, think it uses html, what would the code be for a new paragraph be?

this is the code which decides what my profile looks like, and also puts in advertising for the pace i got the code from...

G-STAR

You'll need to place a couple in to create an usual break; <br><br>

Cheers G-Star!!

Would like to learn HTML, handy thing to know!

GaryK

<p>

will give you a paragraph break.

wez_sti

Cheers Gary, yeah been looking up HTML codes and having a play.

Have managed to get all the lay out for the text how i wanted and have even added a Kosheen video and a pic of Jack Bauer!

If anyone needs a web designer let me know!

Rage!

Post the link so we can all take the ****!

wez_sti

YeeeeeeaaaahhhhhhhNOOO!

God knows what would happen!

Simon C

So just how may of us "sad *****" have myspace??

I have it for work (genertates it for me)

G-STAR

I've found such can mess with the CSS attributes in IE, which is why I use <br><br> (and Firefox, for that matter).

wez_sti

I got it last week, i think its a really good idea that will be HUGE in the very near future (its already pretty big!), whoever owns the site is going to be minted if he isnt already!

Only have friends that i actually know, some are in uni and my family are in Australia so its a great way to keep in touch!

Dont be ashamed, be smug in the knowledge that all will eventually follow!

Going to start an online Radio Broadcast that i will have a link to from my myspace site, all very handy!

The internet is going to be a bigger and bigger part of our every day lives, a free site that you can post about yourself, your pics even vids that's already established will have a hell of a user base...

Wonder how long before Microsoft or Google buy it!

Simon C

Would hate to think of teh offer to buy it, got to have a few 0's on the end before the decimal point.

Its certianly a way forward for unsigned bands, not very many A+R at gigs now a days, this delivers them to the office. Alot of my requests for me to go a photograph at gigs come through this.

Microsoft didn't get rich buy paying inflated prices for existing technology. They got rich by copying it and putting their own name on it!

wez_sti

haha, good point!

they do tend to buy up the competion though if its more financially viable than starting from scratch and getting their own team together...

take Bungie for example...

Markus

Isn't myspace owned by News Corp, in other words, part of the Murdoch empire? I thought I read something a while back saying that NC purchased myspace (or it's parent, which I think is/was Intermix)

wez_sti

Quite possible, i know nothing about it really....

Its is set up to look like its a quaint site set up by someone in their bedroom (may of been in the begining)


all smells a bit corperate though

wez_sti

heres my bit of code for 3 pics on my site...

<img src=http://www.ateamshrine.co.uk/gallery/pub12.jpg width="300" hieght="300">

<img src=http://www.jour.sc.edu/pages/wigginsweb/optimus.jpg width="80" width="160">

<img src=http://www.cheezey.org/thundercats/gallery/lionoposesword.JPG width="110" height="80" allign="right">

it wont put the 2 later pics next to eachother though and puts one on top of the other, which looks rubbish!

any ideas?

TimmyboyWRX

i got one lol

wez_sti

Just thought, Myspace would be a great place for Astraboy to write about his raves!

Dont read em myself but he could share the pinicale of hard core Raving with the whole world.........

Or do you already AB????

wez_sti

well Fatboy slim has one, thats good enough for me!

check out the juggling half way down on the right for his new single, very impressive!
