Over 16,532,779 people are on fubar.
What are you waiting for?
Welcome! And I'm glad you're showing interest in learning to edit your profile yourself!
This is the directory, I'll start from the top of the LostCherry/CherryTap/Fubar profile, and divide
it up into sections, and further in depth on those!
Happy Hour and the Who's Online Marquee:
This is the entire top section. Who's Online is no longer a marquee, but it periodically shuffles new users in.
This is where all your updates are.
AKA SB or ShoutBox, this is where users instant chat with you.
This is where users are for 30 days that have bought or been given a "Blast".
The Ticker:
This is a short message that users can purchase. As it now appears on the homepage instead of the user profile, I'll be skipping this.
Name, Action links, and your URL:
Pretty basic, this section also included the Ticker at one time.
Welcome / Header Pic (The space between the Chat Box, and the rest of your profile.):
Your welcome mat, sets the theme for the profile.
Display, Rate, and User Interaction Links (UIL):
UIL area, includes Display Pic, Add Fan rate area, limited coding.
Info box (age location level views salutes):
ASLoL area basically your stats. Limited and conflicting coding here.
This is where your bling is, some conflicting coding, usually just text changes.
Status Box:
The "What's On Your Mind?" gets posted here. Scrolls, text, and a bit more.
F-Box (Family Friends Fans Fan of)
Background images, text changes, image sizing, and more.
About and Interests Box:
Making invisible, backgrounds, changing text, text size, and more.
Mumms Blogs and Lounges Box:
Generally text changes as there's conflicting code with other sections.
Gifts Box:
Old terminology, now known as "The Drink Bar", shows your last 5 drinks received.
Comments Box:
Where people post thier spam (add me, come to lounge, etc..), fun comments like "Love you" and "You're an asshat", pictures, vids, and more. I'll show you how to set a standard size on pics and vids to save space, even put it all in a scroll box so it doesn't take ten years to reach the Leave A Comment Box.
Leave a Comment Box:
Text box, can adjust text, borders, backgrounds, the post button, and more.
Profile Viewers, Viewable, and Skin Box:
Footer section, Limited to no coding allowed.
Footer Text:
Footer section, limited to no coding allowed.
Popup Box:
This is the box that pops up when you hover over a name or picture of a user.
Pictures section:
It's each page or folder of pictures. I'll delve into this later.
Blogs section:
I'll screw with the blog area to see if it's codeable as well.
Lounges section:
I'll open up a new lounge or gain access to one to see and screw with the coding. Never know, might turn into the coding help lounge heh.
And finally Questions and Answers (for those of you that have gone through each section and haven't figured it out yet):
To Do List:
-Tuts (Tutorials) for each section, backup and save as text document.
*0/23
-Create pictures folder to hold each section's pictures.
*0/23
-Screenshot each layer in each section, and conflicting areas.
-Add notation of how to code so sub-tables appear correctly.
-Add notation of how IE and FF browsers read code for different effects.
-Add notation of how to code two separate skins in one for IE and FF users.
A little list of things you can and cannot do.
The Footer section, and the Header section containing Feed/Chat/Blast/HappyHour/OnlineNow, interaction links (chat/message/gift/bling etc..) and the ToolTip window are all uneditable as intended by LostCherry/CherryTap/Fubar.
Can:
1.) Change the color, size, font, and styling on just about every bit of text on the page.
2.) Change the background color on just about any section on the page.
3.) Change the width, heigth, and border to any image on the page.
4.) Change the width and heigth of any embedded object in your comments.
Cannot:
1.) Stylè Tags don't work. You'll be using CSS format to customize your page via the "Skins" section.
2.) ÐIVs are filtered as well. No go on that.
3.) Use ÍFRAMEs.
4.) Use Jává.
5.) Hide most tables anymore. (I will show you how to hide most the profile for a "private" profile though.)
6.) Cover the Advertising Space or edit the Footer section.
7.) Customize the popup window when you hover over people's links / pics.
8.) Customize the Live Feed, SB or Chat Box, Blast, Online Now, or Happy Hour Header Section.
9.) Customize the interaction links, or rate box, you have to adjust the table as a whole.
10.) Steal me. =]]
If there's anything I missed in haste, I'll edit this post.
Alright, just a few things before we get started.
1.) I'm not an employee of LostCherry.com, CherryTap.com, or Fubar.com (or any other associated name). All content covered in LC/CT/Fubar's Terms is still property of LC/CT/Fubar respectively. I claim no rights to the website, or any of LC/CT/Fubar's property.
2.) You're not allowed to cover any of the Ad Space on the page, and I won't show you how to. Period. If you use any of my Tuts (Tutorials) and apply what they teach to go against LC/CT/Fubar's intentions and get caught, that's your problem, and your possibly deleted account. Enjoy the bottom of the ladder and don't whine to me about it.
3.) I've only made a custom skin for a few people. I figure with some of the questions people continue to ask, this section should help out immensely. As people continue to ask questions I'll go more in depth into the said sections and of course post screen shots along the way.
4.) Mozilla Firefox owns Internet Explorer anyday. I use FF over IE, and will continue to until there's a better browser introduced. Yes, this still applies over Netscape, Chrome, Opera, Safari, SkyFire, and a few other browsers I've gotten my hands on that still aren't public.
5.) If I come off as an asshole, take a step back and look at what I'm doing. Am I trying to get it so that you learn it instead of it just being given to you? I'm a firm believer in the "Teach a man to fish..." saying. Any attitude "portrayed" by text is just a reflection of the reader, so don't jump to conclusions. That's the kind of game that a man in a wheelchair with a huge settlement would make.
6.) I'm still far too drunk to continue this posting. More to come.
