If you want to play around with your page's style, go to your My Page tab and click the link to "Edit Page Appearance." You can change the theme, font, color, and spacing of your page. You can even add your own Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). Under the "Now Customize Your Page" section, go to the Advanced tab.
Click here to learn more about CSS. I will try to put in a CSS Editor in the near future but for now if need be I can help you.... Let me know what color schemes you'd like etc. and I will create a CSS file for your source code....
How do I change the theme of my page on the network?
When you join this network, a profile page on that network is created for you under the My Profile tab. You can edit your page's theme by logging in to the network and clicking the My Page tab.
Follow the link at the top of the page to "Edit Profile Appearance." You can choose a theme for your page, entirely separate from the network's theme, and customize the color of each item on the page.
Can I remove a feature from showing on My Page?
Yes. To remove a feature from your page, simply click on the "Edit" button in the header of the item you want to remove. Change "Show" to 0. Others won't see the box until you change it back.
Who can comment on my profile? Whose profile can I comment on?
Comments to your profile appear under your My Page tab at the bottom of the middle column. Any person who belongs to this network can comment on your profile on the network, and you can comment on any person's profile on the network.
You can, however, turn on comment moderation for your profile.
1. Go to your My Page tab and locate the Comment Wall.
2. Click the "Edit" button in the header and click the "Yes - approve comments first" option.
3. Click save.
You will now be able to review comments to your profile before they are made public.
To leave a comment on someone's profile, first go to his or her profile page on the network. Then, simply start typing in the box under "Leave a Comment." You don't have to be friends to leave comments on their comment wall. You can embed videos, photos, and widgets to your comment. When you're done, click "Add Comment."
What is a text box? What can I put in my text box?
A text box is a box to which you can add a variety of content. It's just another way to make your page your own! Simply click the "Edit" button in the top right corner of the text box on your My Page to get started.
Network Creators and Administrators can add the following content to text boxes:
· Text

Why don't I see the forum, photos, music or video section on My Page?
If the Network Creator has not added these features to the main page of the network, they will not appear on anyone's page on the network. However, you can easily add photos to your text box. You can also embed videos or a music player from another network into the text box.
How do I see what my page will look like to others?
After you've made changes to your page and want to know how others will see it, go the the My Page tab. Click the "View Page As Others See It" link under your profile picture.
What is the RSS box for?
The RSS box on your My Page allows you to display news feed from another site on the web, onto your page. Click the "Edit" button in the header of the RSS box to make changes.
You can change the title displayed in the header of the section to reflect the subject of the feed, type in the URL of the feed, change the display to detail view or titles only, and change the number of items appearing in this box from 0 to 10.
Can I add my own CSS to My Page on a network?
Absolutely! Go to your My Page tab and click on the link to "Edit Page Appearance." Under "Now Customize Your Page," go to the Advanced tab to add your own CSS to your My Page.
How do I pull external widgets, videos, photo slideshows, music players or text links into my social network?
The most obvious place to add widgets, videos, photo slideshows, or text links is in the Text Box feature that you can add to your main page on the Features page.
The Text Box also shows up by default on your member profile page.
This Text Box supports some HTML (see definition below) and can be easily used to add text links to sites off your network, display a video from YouTube, or add a photo slideshow from Slide.
Additionally, most text fields throughout your network, or places where you would answer a profile question, add a comment, or create a blog post, support some HTML. See Attached File please:
