Posted: Sun Nov 23, 2008 9:09 pm Need advice with image alignment |
|

Ok, I wanted to post my gamercard on myspace and I noticed that mygamercard.net has an NXE theme which is really cool. So I'd thought it'd be kinda cool if I took the bottom half of my avatar and aligned it with the photo on the actual gamercard, but it's not as easy as I thought.
this is as far as I got. any advice would be awesome.
also, this is my first post. I'm here to actually learn more html, not to just get help with this. |

MySpace has no concept of proper HTML/CSS coding. Is the game card generated via script or can you download it and use a graphics editor? What I was thinking is to just make a new image with the bottom half of your Avatar. Then just code the new image into where the old one is. Lot easier than messing with HTML and MySpace quirks. |

hahaha this is very very true. and the gamercard is generated through a script. when I unlock an achievement and points are added to my gamerscore, that card updates as well.(god, that sounded really nerdy)
I already aligned and cut out what would be the bottom of the avatar. so its just a matter of getting it where it needs to go. but, if need be I dont think i'd really have a problem with downloading the gamercard as an image and then attaching the bottom half of the avatar and changing it every now and then when my gamercard is updated. |

| Do you have just the JavaScript code for card, avatar image link and any container code for card and avatar image? Maybe I can come up with something that may work. |

<a href="http://profile.mygamercard.net/a+narwhal">
<img src="http://card.mygamercard.net/nxe/a+narwhal.png" border=0>
</a> |
would be the code. so, i suppose it's an image linked to the site. so every time the site updated, so does the image. so, thinking back, it's no a script. I have no idea why I said that. wow. |

No script might make it easier. Let me see what I can come up with if I can get your card and image to display ok here. What's link to the Avatar half you want to use?

You're welcome. Ah, school! I remember that.
Please be sure to download the bottom part of your avatar at http://img399.imageshack.us/img399/7858/connorjtransox3.png as it may get deleted when I go through and periodically delete images I no longer use or need (or think I do).
Glad it worked for you. |
