# Sorry I put the question wrong.
In your profile you have got flashy graphics and stuff, not just a basic white background. How do you that?

# You need

# ok, you wouldn't believe how many people don't spot that though :)
There's a thing called a css profile that you can see if you view source on a profile, you need to experiment with the values for colours.

Open yours in source and compare with mine for example and see which bits are different.
I'm no expert so I just played around for a while until it turned out nice again.

# Nick this:
Put it in STYLE tags

BODY { background-color: #999999;}#mainbar { background-color: #703020; color: #909090; font-family: arial, helvetica; font-size: 12px; padding: 12px;}A:link { text-decoration : none; color : #222222; }A:visited { text-decoration : none; color : #222222; }A:active { text-decoration : none; color : #999999; }A:hover { text-decoration : none; color : #ffffff; }

And fiddle about with the six digit numbers.
Post it at the top of your profile info, et voila!

# Can you use
external style sheets for your profile? Or do they have to be internal/inline?

# I have no idea.
