I would like to brighten up my 360 profile page and make it more interesting.?

Question

Any suggestions? I'm not very good with it yet.

Answer 1

Jokes that aren't clean, you should post in your blog under "mature content" settings.

- You can access blog settings by clicking the "Settings" link at the top and clicking "Blog Settings" on the left OR while in "My Blog" clicking "Edit Blog Settings" in the top center of the 360 window.

- For individual entries, click the "Edit" link below an entry, click the "Show Options" link and check the mature content option, then re-save.

There's lots of information available on neat things that you can do with your 360 space. I suggest that you consult the following resources and try some features out:

- HELP Pages: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/360/

- For MORE TIPS see some of my previous answers on various Y!360 & Y/A subjects by clicking on my avatar and scrolling down to click on my "Starred Questions" tab.

- For IDEAS you can check out other 360 pages by clicking on your "Search" link at the top of 360 or by going to http://360.yahoo.com/search.html

- The 360 team blog at http://blog.360.yahoo.com/product_360 has many helpful links on the right side to help with setting up a 360 space and using other services with it.

- IMPORTANT!: Thoroughly read the 360 COMMUNITY GUIDELINES at http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/360/gui...

While you're checking those resources, you can look for information on creating a custom background, adding polls to blogs, adding music to your 360, adding other widgets, and posting multiple images in a blog entry. Also, make sure that you are connecting with other 360 members as friends so that your efforts are seen.

You can make your own custom theme for your profile page and it is a lot fun friend. Making them with your own background is really easy to do :o)

There are two rules that you must remember about background pictures you use on Yahoo. They have to be the jpg file type and they can't be over 250kbs in size.

Okay here we go step by step.

1. Look for the option that says Change Theme..

2. Click the option and when you get to the theme page look at the top of the page for the option USE Custom Theme, and click it.

3. This will take you back to your editing page.. ( your MY PAGE) and a popup will appear on the page.

4. There are slot there to browse your computer to find a jpg file type, not over 250kbs in size image for your back ground.

5. The first one is set to tile your image as a multiup of it on the background by repeating the image over and over.

6. The next two are for putting an image at the top, center,and bottom of your background. I never use this option because it just never works like I want it to, I always use the tiling option.

7. After you have chosen the background image scroll down in the popup and you will find a slide color picker to choose the module color, font style and color, border color .. etc. or in the color slide box that appears when you click onto the square you will find the option Transparent .. putting a check in this box will make you modules transparent with no color.

8. After you have made all your selections click the preview or save button at the bottom of the popup and it will save your selections and post your new background.

9. After you have successfully done this once.. the option you will then find on your page to change your theme will be Edit Custom Theme and it will not take you to the Yahoo premade theme page again.

The size restrictions are really annoying at times but there is no helping that one at all!

This is a link to a group you should join on Yahoo. They have loads of background images and tutorials about the whole thing and the owners of the group are really nice folks who will even take your request and make a background just for you! Have fun new friend!

You could add your hobbies, inside jokes and make the colors correspond to your mood or the weather or the season.
