Big Online Now Icons

Well it looks like MySpace has updated their coding again because I noticed that the online now icons in my overlays are either displaying too big and/or with a border around them. Both of my overlay generators have been updated to correct this. If you have an overlay already installed and you don't feel like running through the generator again to get fresh code then you can use a patch I posted on my Overlay Changelog page.

Cheers!

 

1. Dude, these layouts (overlays) are amazing! I feel so original lol. Thanks a lot.

6. Love the black layout! I'm telling all my friends about you!

   BTW, if I wanted to embed a .swf centered above the two panels, where exactly would I put the tag? All that code is dizzying!

8. I love these layouts, but why are'nt there ever any new ones?
   I like to switch between the white & black but you never put up new ones why?

9. Daniel,

   I do this on a volunteer basis and I've been busier than a rented donkey for the past little while. I'll get new layouts up when I can find some spare time.

10. minimalist layouts are completely underrated, however it's funny to notice that the simplest always seem to have the most intimidating code behind them. these are fabulous. but...on that note, is there any way that you can help us change it round a bit? for instance, i want my scroll bars to be different, and the tables wider.

    i'm not sure how you wrote this code (being as i have little to no knowledge of html) but if there were some way to work it into other html codes, that would be marvelous.

    many thanks!

13. Hi, love the overlays!

    You might notice that they look a lot better in IE than in Firefox. Also, I had to get IE for Linux in order to use the generator. That's okay, but is there any chance we can get these layouts looking better in Firefox? The two main tables are very close to the bottom, or extend beyond the bottom of the visible screen, depending on how large the font setting is, and maybe screen resolution. They also appear statically-sized, which might mean some horizontal scrolling for those with small screens and low resolutions.

    Great job, thanks!

14. Karen,

    The generators are written in simple Javascript. Most web browsers can easily handle Javascript. If you encounter problems getting the getting the generators to work, check your Javascript settings or scripting permissions on your browser.

    As for getting them to look good in Firefox (e.g., tables riding too low) I'm not sure what you're talking about. I tested them extensively in Firefox and took great pains to make sure they look almost identical to how they look in IE.

    Take a look at my test page and see if you see the same issues:

    Also, if you're playing around with setting larger font sizes then I can't guarantee satisfactory results. In fact, I wouldn't recommend messing with the font sizes at all if you don't know what you're doing (the reasons are complex... has to do with getting the blog table to display at the smallest height possible).

15. Hey, I love the overlay, but I have one question. On your examples, your text starts at the top, next to the picture and goes down. On my page, my text starts at the bottom of the picture. How can I get it to start at the top?

    THANKS!

16. Matt,

    Looks like you edited (or replaced) the < img > tag in your code. If you're going to do that, make sure you only replace the value of the src attribute (i.e., the image URL) and don't delete anything else. There are other important attributes in the original < img > tag code that align the image to the left and apply some width to the margins. Looks like you're going to have to run through the generator again to fix it up.

    Posted by Rob on April 16th, 2007 at 7:05 pm

17. Yeah, I probably changed it. If you looked at my profile, you can see I have been editing different things on the page. I used html to align the picture to the left so the words would wrap on the right. I dont really know anything about HTML or CSS coding, but I can read through all the code and figure out how to change things. Thanks for your help and thanks A LOT for making this website for easy Overlay generators! Keep up the good work.

    -Matt

18. How can i enlarge the picture comments...they all seem to be small thumbnails??...great work!

    Posted by Will T on April 27th, 2007 at 3:42 pm

19. Will,

    This is an unavoidable side effect of resizing the friends pics in the Friend Space section. Any pics in the Comments section that are enclosed in hyperlinks will be resized as well. These overlays are typically meant for those who have HTML disabled in their Comments section.

24. I tried using the plain overlay on my 'band' music page - didn't work out to well. any pointers?

    thanks

    Posted by Charles Trees on May 14th, 2007 at 12:31 pm

25. Yeah.. Sorry Charles.. These overlays are not compatible with band profiles. I have that noted on my home page but I just realized that people might have accessed the overlay pages without hitting my home page.

    I have some MySpace music backgrounds available here in case you're interested.

    They're not overlays but they're still pretty nice. Check 'em out!
