Manta Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 So I'm interested in learning how to make my own userlookup...anybody know of any good petpages/sites that could help me? Thanks! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornflakes Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Hrm, my best advice to you is to just mess around with code and practice, practice, PRACTICE. CssHelp the Royal Kougra has had a long-standing tradition of being an excellent help page. Start there - copy some code down and paste it into your lookup to see what it does. Have fun :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xepha Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 HTML and CSS guide by Izzy Izzy's guide is really comprehensive :) Be sure to credit her if you use her template or sample codes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manta Posted December 29, 2010 Author Share Posted December 29, 2010 Thanks for the help guys! :D I took a look at both pages, and in the end, followed Izzy's guide to make my new lookup! :) http://www.neopets.com/userlookup.phtml?user=toadsdontexist Just have a test banner for now, but I think it looks nice and minimalistic. I'll probably change it to something a little...better some other time xD For now, I need to get food. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritzie Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 That looks really cute! I love the coloring. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manta Posted December 29, 2010 Author Share Posted December 29, 2010 Thanks Spritzie! :D I made a new banner, using magic the gathering artwork :) http://www.neopets.com/userlookup.phtml?user=toadsdontexist I think I need to change around some of the CSS colors now though...

Spritzie Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 That looks really awesome. (I'm totally graphically challenged.) I love how it looks like it's bursting out of the banner. I also think the green looks nice. It brings out the dragon more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manta Posted December 29, 2010 Author Share Posted December 29, 2010 Thank you! :D I used to be part of a graphics design forum a few years ago, so it's good to see I still remember my GFX tricks :) While I agree with you, my color-matching sense rebelled, and made me color-pick new CSS colors :P maybe I'll try my hand at making a new siggie/avatar for the boards after lunch :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritzie Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 I've never done graphics, just a bit of coding. My best friend does graphics and she's amazing. She used to make me stuff all the time because I was always drooling over everything she made. She made me avatars from pictures from my vacations even. Okay, you're totally right. That color is tons better, and still highlights the dragon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manta Posted December 29, 2010 Author Share Posted December 29, 2010 That's awesome! :D Wish I had a friend like that lol :P Alright now I've run into a problem: http://www.neopets.com/userlookup.phtml?user=toadsdontexist I added a side navigation because I liked it better, and added an avatars thingy. But now for some reason, my "About Me" section is all scrunched into the middle and I can't figure out why. I don't think I told it to be centered or anything...help? :O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
