  • Ok so I want to learn how to make fancies that way I can make some of my own. I really wanna learn so please teach me how.

  • No, I don't know the basics so yea you're gonna have I teach me that first :-[

  • okay. you start with the code below:

    Code
    1. [align=center][fancypost bgcolor= COLOR; border: WIDTHpx TYPE COLOR;]
    2. TEXT
    3. [/fancypost][/align]


    you can edit the background color, the border width, type and color. the border types i know of are:
    double, dashed, dotted and normal.


    editing the above will result in something a bit like this:

    [fancypost bgcolor= white; border: 6px dashed black;]
    TEXT
    [/fancypost]


    the border i used was dashed.

  • [fancypost bgcolor= COLOR; border: WIDTHpx TYPE COLOR;]

  • yeah, perfect! now i can show you how to do picture backgrounds. you take your regular fancypost code

    Code
    1. [align=center][fancypost bgcolor= COLOR; border: WIDTHpx TYPE COLOR;]
    2. TEXT
    3. [/fancypost][/align]


    and add this code:

    Code
    1. background:url(URL);


    like this:

    Code
    1. [align=center][fancypost bgcolor= COLOR; border: WIDTHpx TYPE COLOR; background:url(URL);]
    2. TEXT
    3. [/fancypost][/align]


    you find an image and replace URL with the link. it'll look a little like this:

    [fancypost bgcolor= COLOR; border: WIDTHpx TYPE COLOR; background:url(http://upload.wikimedia.org/wi…ry_Walk_2_-_Sept_2008.jpg);]
    TEXT
    [/fancypost]
