[color=#4B0082]That page is using CSS and JavaScript, and possibly an iframe to put the new page layout in. I'd have to look through the code more to see exactly what she did, but that could take a while.

It looks like you got the layout up on your page now, but the style settings look off. I think you need to change the tr.tborder {display: none;} style to just .tborder {display: none;} so that it affects everything with the class tborder.[/color]

Take as long as you need!And thanks for the trouble!I'm learning more as I go!

But when I take away the tr in the tr.border line,my layout goes away,and the background is just left.What excatly is the tr.tborder supposed to do?

Desbreko · November 24, 2006

[color=#4B0082]Well, since I copied and pasted your code into a new HTML page and it worked fine that way, I'm thinking that the layout isn't working on myOtaku because part of the original layout is interfering. Usually, setting all the elements of the original myOtaku layout to display:none should keep that from happening, so it seems like something was missed. And since the tborder class is applied to myOtaku's main layout table (on line 74), as well as tr tags, I thought that could be what was interfering.

I'll play around with the code and see if I can find out what's causing the problem.[/color]

[size=1][color=indigo][font=arial]It's not working cause their code is inside the .trborder classes, and thus affected by the display:none. Remember your code hierarchies, Des.[/font][/color][/size]

Remember your code hierarchies, Des.[/font][/color'][/size][/quote][color=#4B0082]Yeah, I just missed that at first. After taking a closer look I saw why.

Anyway, I fixed the code. The main problem was that the xmasweb2.jpg image needed an absolute position applied to it, to put it in the top-left corner of the page. Other than that, I put a closing font tag at the very start of the code, to keep a font size="2" tag in the myOtaku layout from being applied to your layout. And finally I applied the text-align:left; style to your content and navi divs, to override myOtaku's center alignment. That got it looking the same as your original code did when copied into a new HTML page, so I assume it's working as intended now.

I hope this works for you. :)[/color]

[FONT=Comic Sans MS][COLOR=SeaGreen]I have a question. My inbox keep sayingn I have three unread messages, and I know for sure that I don't. I went and deleted a lot of stuff, but it didn't change. I tried logging out and back in, but that didn't work either. Help!! :wigout: [/COLOR][/FONT]

[color=#4B0082]Your post archives can be accessed at [url]http://www.myotaku.com/users/kitsune-lass/life/[/url] so you can just make a link to that page. But it's kind of messed up within your layout. Just offhand, though, I have no idea how to integrate the archives, comments, and permalink features with a layout like that. And I have a feeling it would take more time to figure out than I should spend on it during dead week before finals. I'll look into it if I have some extra time but I can't make any promises.[/color]

I think you'd have better luck by using the [url=http://www.theotaku.com/site/contact/][u]Contact Us[/u][/url] form on theOtaku.com.[/color]

Anime Pet · December 7, 2006

[FONT=Comic Sans MS][COLOR=SeaGreen]Unfortunately, I have tried that, and no one has replied. :nope: I know we've had that problem before, so I was hoping someone on here would see and let me know how they fixed it. :help: [/COLOR][/FONT]

Desbreko · December 7, 2006

[color=#4B0082]Hmm. . . . Yeah, I do seem to remember this coming up before. It sounds like a back end problem, though, so I'm not sure that you'd be able to fix it from the user end. I would guess that some value in the database is wrong, causing it to display the new PMs message even though there aren't any, and would need to be corrected by an admin.

Sorry I can't be more helpful.[/color]

Petie · December 7, 2006

[font=Verdana][color=blue]I know this has been a problem in the past. There is nothing that can be done from the user end. Des is right, it can only be fixed by an admin. The only thing I can suggest is that you try to contact the staff at theOtaku again.[/color][/font]

Just take a look here: [URL=http://www.myotaku.com/users/massin/posts/882307]massin[/URL] So you could be having phantom pm's due to the reasons listed in that post. If you know that the pm is suppose to be from someone you know then massin's the one to talk to since they deal with a lot of the technical issues over at theOtaku and myOtaku.

Hope that helps. ^_~ [/COLOR]

Anime Pet · December 8, 2006

[FONT=Comic Sans MS][COLOR=SeaGreen]Thanks so much!! I sent massin a PM - the irony - and let them know. I appreciate you guys telling me about it. :catgirl: [/COLOR][/FONT]

[QUOTE=Kei][color=darkblue]It may depend on your webhost. Sometimes, your background won't show up, sometimes it will. They're iffy at times.

Go to Edit Profile and type the appropriate HTML code in your Introduction. The HTML code is as follows:

< body background="your image url here" width= -- height= -- >

It should work if you use that. Make sure to remove the spaces beside the open and close tags.[/color][/QUOTE]

could you please be more specific than that, im new to theotaku and idk what to do

Anime Pet · February 5, 2007

[FONT=Comic Sans MS][COLOR=SeaGreen]I have a problem with submitting wallpapers lately. I have a whole lot up, so I know that it works for me. Lately, though, they just won't show up. I'll wait a few days after I submit them, I don't go to the wallpaper section at all, my homepage, or anything like that, but they still aren't working. Is it just because they're crappy, or what?? I have a series I was doing, and at least one of the wallpapers that isn't working is from that series, so I didn't think it was because they were really bad.

Can anyone help?? :moron: [/COLOR][/FONT]

Panda · February 5, 2007

Email me the wallpaper that is getting denied and I can tell you why it is not getting approved. [email]Gail@theOtaku.com[/email]

Some wallpapers are denied because they are taken from other sites, contain images that are not official images from an anime or game (ie fan art from fan art websites like DA.), blurry images, inappropriate images (nudity, photographs), inappropriate text (foul language, messages of hate against race, religion, sexual preferences...), text that is difficult to read (blurry text, using a colored text over same color background) and collages of copy/paste images.

Those are the major reasons why wallpapers are denied. If you send me the piece you are concerned about I can be more specific.

Anime Pet · February 6, 2007

[FONT=Comic Sans MS][COLOR=SeaGreen]Thanks! I'll send you the last one in the series that I'm doing, since that's irritating me. But there's a whole bunch of different ones that aren't working. And a lot of wallpaper I see are taken from other images, or copies, but they're still up there, which is why I'm confused. But I'll send you the one, and see what's the matter. Thanks again. At least ONE will be looked at. :animeswea [/COLOR][/FONT]

Panda · February 6, 2007

If you see wallpapers, or any submission for that matter, that are breaking the rules please report them. The mods do a great job but any additional help they can get would be greatly appreciate. Thanks!

Anime Pet · February 13, 2007

[FONT=Comic Sans MS][COLOR=SeaGreen]The Otau site has been closing down on me lately. First it'll say that the server is unavailable or something related. Then, I'll be on looking at wallpapers or messaging or whatever, and the internet page will just close itself out. It doesn't do that for any of my other sites.[/COLOR][/FONT]

February 16, 2007

ok so here's my problem: i made an acount but there's no backroom. the rest of the account works like i can submit artwork and all that jazz but i can't open my PMs and i don't have a site people can visit or anything like that. even when i log on, the page loads and still has the log in stuff but when i click on the link to theOtaku.com it says i'm logged in....what can i do to fix this? i can't delete it and make a new one because there's no backroom to delete it T-T can someone help me?
