    @ Bugalouie
    Glad I helped! There aren't any other Mibba-profile-layout tutorials up as far as I know, but if you have an idea of what you're looking to do and google it, you'll almost certainly find a mini-tutorial for it, and you can piece together a more advanced layout that way with a little patience. I'd also recommend experimenting with tables to get comfortable with translating your vision of where you want things to be into a layout. Hope that helps. :3

    I'm speechless right now. You were able to take a computer illiterate and help her make her own layout. That makes you pretty bamf. I have one teeny question/request, is there another tutorial that shows you how to do more complex layouts?

    It depends on what browser you're using, but when you right-click the image, there should be an option along the lines of "properties" or "image info" that'll bring up all the information on the image, including its dimensions.

    Part 1 really helped me out. I just have one teensy-weensy problem. It says to change <div id="container"> to #container{} but I really had no idea how to do this. Like,where exactly to put it? If you could please answer that, I would love it so soooo much! Other than that, it was amazing! I had no knowledge of how to make a custom layout and with this, I feel completely computer-savvy. Thank you,very much!

    I figured I'd let everyone know this is a really good tutorial! I have no knowledge of HTML or CSS, but following the guide here (plus it's counter part), I was able to make my own custom profile. I'm really happy I spent the time to do it! I really love my new profile!

    This is an amazing profile tutorial! :)
    Just one thing - I can't quite figure out how to make the top bar link to my stories and such... would you be able to help me with that?

    Thank you SO MUCH from putting this tutorial here!!!!

    I was a bit dissapointed about the fact that my old profile (in which I had only edited the CSS) was gone but now I can make an even better one. :D
    You wrote all the instructions clearly enough to understand so it wasn't hard at all to follow them. Now I just need to customize my profile further.
    Thank you again, this really helped me out a LOT.
