How to Add Background Color to MySpace

MySpace is all about connecting with your friends, meeting new people and expressing yourself. Just like you don’t leave the walls of your room bare and white, you don’t want your MySpace profile to be plain and dull. One of the easiest ways to give your MySpace profile a new look is to add a background color to it.

Instructions

1. Find the color you want to add to your background. The easiest way to do this is to use a search engine like Google to search for the term “HTML Colors.” You can click one of the search results and receive a list of all the available HTML colors and their codes.
2. Once you find the color that you want to use, be sure to write down its six digit code (most of the codes are a mix of letters and numbers).
3. Log into your MySpace account.
4. On your home page, click the Edit Profile link.
5. On the Edit Profile page, find the About Me section.
6. Paste the following code into your About Me section:
7. <style type=”text/css”>
   body
   {
   background-color: a3014d;
   }
   </style>
   
8. Replace a3014d with the color code you wrote down in Step Two.
9. Click the Save All Changes to update your profile with the new background color.
10. To see the new background color of your MySpace profile, just visit the View My Profile link on your home page.

Although you normally use the # sign in front of the six digit color code, if you use it on your MySpace profile, your profile won’t show your new background color correctly.
