| It was kind of difficult for me to start out, too, but I got the hang of it. First off, try making a table. Put the beginning tags in the header and the end tags in your profile. Once you get the hang of it, try experimenting. | |||

It took me an at least 30 to create the layout I am using now.  Mainly because I needed to find colors and stuff. But it isn't too difficult to do it. First off, might want to start off with a table. Example:
-------------------- Header: Here as you can see is two tables and two tds... The reason to this is that the first table and td takes your table away from the borders of the actual post. (See note below related to cellpadding, and border.) < table cellpadding="20" >< td >< table border="1" >< td > SAMPLE TEXT...
Sig: (To close the tags, you have to go tag backwards. For instance; up above, I've used "table, td, table, td" but now I have to figure out how to close them... So all I need to do, is go backwards; watch. < /td >< /table >< /td >< /table >
Notes - Header: Cellpadding was used to spread the table away from the scheme table border... For example; in my layout, my tables don't hit along the sides of the scheme tables and stuff. Yet, because of cellpadding, it sits away from it. In case you don't want this, you don't have to have it; It isn't imperative... Border was used to let it be known that I want the borders of the actual table. If border wasn't there, then there woulden't be any borders to the table. It's fairly okay not to have the borders if you don't plan to design them with your table background color and such. For example; if I were to have my borders blue... but my table background color brown, that would look really odd. So it would be more better for me just not to even use the borders. -------------------- That's basically the code to making a simple table -- for starters.  I'm sorry if I wasn't able to give more detail on what I meant with cellpadding and border. But, I hope I've helped you out, at least. Good luck, with coding. (edited by Chris on 11-24-05 04:38 PM) |

| <table width="90%" border="0" align="center" bgcolor="#99CCFF">
The digits are your hexadecimal color code. As for font color-- EDIT: I posted the wrong way. The right way includes <font color=xxxxxx> tags. (edited by Blue Warrior on 11-24-05 05:03 PM) (edited by Blue Warrior on 11-25-05 11:50 AM) |

Also, if you want to set number colors, instead of bgcolor="INSERT COLOR NAME HERE" , you should put bgcolor="#121212" where it says td (for inside table only) or table (for outside table).
2nd answer: Instead of the lousy bbcode tags, I prefer the real font tags instead... < font color="INSERTCOLORHERE" > . You can also add other stuff to it as well...
< font color="INSERTCOLORHERE" face="INSERTFONTNAMEHERE" size="INSERTFONTSIZEHERE" >. Don't forget at the end, however, to put < /font > |

| Here's a good tip:
Any time I make a layout, I code it as a pure HTML layout, and put it into an HTML file on my HDD called posts.htm. Then I load it up in my browser, and start modifying the source to tweek it and make it look how I want. After each change, I save the posts.htm file, and switch to my browser where I press F5 to reload the page and check my changes.
If you do that, make sure you change the path for any images to point to wherever they're at. For example, if you have an image called button.gif, and you upload it to http://www.server.com/myaccount/button.gif, make sure you change it in the code to that address. |

Exactly. That's why I said:
