Customing Profile

RedGlitter · Post by **RedGlitter** » Fri Jun 06, 2008 10:32 pm

I decided I wanted to add a patterned background to my profile. I uploaded my background images to an album and I have tried entering both URLs yet...no background.Could someone advise me please?

Never mind, I figured it out!

Nope, I was wrong again! I can get color but I can't use my own background as it says "Problem with Main" and highlights where I've entered my background.

It doesn't sound like it's been properly uploaded to your album.

I'll post the procedure for everyone here:

Go to My Settings/ Pictures and Albums / then make certain that the radio button for Profile - Pictures used to modify your profile style

is clicked. It has to be uploaded to this album. If it's hosted on Imageshack, Photobucket or in one of your other albums it won't work and you'll have your image link highlighted in red.

Copy the link.

Then return to Customize Profile and then drop it into the url area for images and make certain to select how you want it displayed: horizontal, vertical, both... and that should do it if you followed that properly. I'm unsure atm of the specifics regarding restrictions, however... I'd keep 'em small, though.

Mine looks like this:

Hmm...Im still getting the red highlighting and my pictures are uploaded from my pc. I don't get it- EA has the same format and it works for me over there...

It didn't work? What was it doing? I'm sorry! Did you right click save as and save it to your computer? If you do that and follow G-man's instructions it should work.
