New SGR MySpace page
http://www.myspace.com/sailorsgraverecords
Take a look and lemme know if anything is outta line.
I mean, literally out of line.
Trying to tweak myspace code is so inefficient, it's not even funny.
Mostly looking to make sure those new headers (releases, blog, newsletter, etc) all line up correctly and aren't covering content they shouldn't be.
Thanks.
If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

off how, shawn?
you mean not vertically aligned with one another?
or one of those headers is 15px too high and covering something else?
thanks!

aligned. nothing covering. Just thought it was soooooo close that it could be better if they were aligned.
Sorry, designer in me.

Same here in Windows Vista / Explorer
Looks like the text "Label: Indie" is visible under Mark's listing and the deffault BLOG link is 1/2 visible under the blog header...

shawn - 'releases' and 'blog' not aligning is deliberate... unfortunately. part of the reason is because the gutter is so narrow between the columns,
when they were closer to being lined up, it just looked like one big horizontal barrier. the other reason is that from a CSS-spacing perspective, i
can' move 'blog' down or 'releases' up enough to have them accurately line up w/o covering something else.
monty - good catch, i don't see either of those. i added more css to hide label:indie and moved the blog banner down just a few pixels. lemme know
if that takes care of it.
thanks again, guys!

HAAAAAHAHA! I started reading that all serious and was laughing out loud by the end of the line. Thanks, Mark, I needed that.
I think we're all sorted now.
- I added a white background color to the content that I overlaid on top of the default text, so it shouldn't show through.
- Then added a little more white space to the top and bottom of the blog image and moved it down another pixel or two.
Also slapped my own banner at the top of the page. That'll become something more useful if we ever have anything to actually announce.

How did you do the banner? I've often wondered how to insert those fancy schmancy things at the top.

talk to me gar, what don't ya like?
the bullets, the gradient, the fact that it doesn't scroll w/ the page?
it's kind of a combination of elements from the SGR site.
using something very similar on twitter as well.

So you're saying Duane is a great lay? But you'd like to change what's in the background? Maybe some smooth jazz instead?

Mark, Like monty said, modifying myspace code is a pain in the ass. Because you don’t have direct access to the page code, you’re constantly trying
to modify something without even really being able to see it.
There are tons of code snippets online, but many are either outdated, not cross-browser compatible or they conflict with other code edits that may
already be in place.
Below is code I used to center the banner above all the myspace content. It can just go in the ‘musician bio’ field. Not sure how familiar you are
with this, so if you’d like an explanation, lemme know. Basically, everything except "position: absolute;" and "left: 50.0%;" will need to be edited
based on the size of the image you use.
| Code: | <style>
body {
margin-top: 130px ;}
div.topbanner {
position: absolute;
top: 20;
left: 50.0%;
margin-left: -364px;
width: 728px;
height: 130px; }
</style>
<div class="topbanner"><a href="http://thorprecords.com/store" target="_blank"><img src="http://thorprecords.com/images/banners/bulldogcourage-fhth-leaderboard.gif" width="728" height="90" border="0" /></a></div> |
