a:hover, a.man:hover, a.text:hover, a.redlink:hover, a.navbar:hover {font-family:; font-size:; color:; background-color:;text-transform:; text-decoration:; font-weight:;}

seems simple huh?


Background Color: the color for your background. You can put white, black, or a hex code. A hex code is a six digit code consisting of numbers and letters that makes up a color. For example, ff6666 makes a certain shade of pink, while c0c0c0 is a light grey.

Background Image: your background image. If you have it already saved onto your computer, go to tinypic.com or imageshack.us to get the URL for your background. Paste it in place of URL HERE.

Background Attachment: Use "scroll" or "fixed" (without the quotation marks). Scroll will move the background along with your tables. Fixed will keep the background steady and only move the tables (recommended)

Background Repeat: use "repeat" or "no-repeat" (still without the quotation marks). no-repeat will only have your background image appear once on your page, while repeat will have it repeated throughout.

Background Position: Mandatory if you have a no-repeat image. If you don't, still position it, but it doesn't really matter.
You can use:
top left
top center
top right
left
center
right
bottom left
bottom center
bottom right

Font Family: the font of your page. (Arial, Courier, Georgia, Times New Roman, Small Fonts, Century Gothic, Verdana)

Font Size: the size of your font. use px or pt.
For example:

7px (perfect for small fonts)
8px
9px
10px
21px
64318623816318px (hehe)

You can do just about any size, but the most a size can be is 1002 (trust me! hah.)

Color: use hex code. color for the font.
Background Color: use hex code. background of the font. If not needed, just put "none" (without the quotes)

ANYTHING BELOW THIS DO NOT TOUCH UNLESS YOU HAVE GOOD KNOWLEDGE OF CSS(which you probably don't since you are reading this)

font, body, table, td, div, h1, h2, br, a, p: the basic font on your page.

Text Transform: Make all the text uppercase, lowercase, or normal.
Text Decoration: Put underline if you want it that way. If not, just put none.
Font Weight: makes it bold. If you want it bold, put bold. If you don't, put none.
Orangetext15: About Me and Who I'd Like to Meet text
Whitetext12: Interests, Contacting, Details, and Schools text.

Lightbluetext8: General, Music, Movies, Television, Books, Heroes, Status, Here for, Hometown, Ethnicity, Zodiac Sign, Smoke/Drink, Education, and Occupation

Text: Your headline, Age, that stuff.
Blacktext12: Date on comments
Blacktext10: Extended network text.
Redtext: Amount of friends and number
Redbtext: Has # friends and name's latest blog entry.
