How to Guide: Individual Song Pictures...by Robert M

RobertMcDade	Date: July 6, 2005 @ 4:34 AM ) Once u have the full formula in place (URL of pic, demensions set, and angular brakets in place) then u'll want to copy all of that and paste it into the description area of your song. (This will limit the actual description space for that song, but it makes them stand out more.):nod: If you did it right, the HTML Code will appear as a picture next to ur song (like mine) and what ever else u say about it can be seen next to it. Just simply add the descriptive text right after your HTML code. For example: This is my song. Would show up as a picture with "This is my song." beside it. I advise you to copy, paste, and save that formula in wordpad or something of the sort. (just dont forget that its < > these brakets, I didnt use them here becuz it would have shown up as a picture. Well, hope this wasn't too confusing! If you have any further questions, just note me! :thumbsup: :later:" id="140537"> then info, on the song u want to edit.) The formula is [IMG BORDER="2" ALIGN="Left" WIDTH="70" HEIGHT="70" hspace=12 SRC="http://files.dmusic.com/music/r/o/robertm/RM_Logo2.jpg"] What u'll want to do is first, replace what I have in quotes with the URL of the picture you want to use. Second, u can change the demensions of the picture via width/height (this is optional) i use 70x70 to keep them simple and small. Third, u will want to replace the straight brakets ([ ]) with angular brakets () Once u have the full formula in place (URL of pic, demensions set, and angular brakets in place) then u'll want to copy all of that and paste it into the description area of your song.

Cryxan	Date: July 6, 2005 @ 4:53 AM Way cool. One day, there will be an easier way to do this, but all in due time. I'll feature this thread so it'll get more exposure. Thanks, Robert!
RobertMcDade	Date: July 6, 2005 @ 6:13 AM Just tryin to help
BlackMage	Date: July 6, 2005 @ 7:10 AM That's the only way? Wow, I thought it was some kinda fancy stuff, but it was only some HTML in a right place...
evansorchid	Date: July 6, 2005 @ 9:41 AM Testimonial: I've been wondering this for some time now, and it really really works. Thanks Robert M.
Stercesderised	Date: July 6, 2005 @ 9:46 AM awesome fyi...wish more of these types of tips were posted. thank you!
onewhodreams	Date: July 6, 2005 @ 10:53 AM Thanks Robert! I'm going to give it a try!
onewhodreams	Date: July 6, 2005 @ 11:39 AM I just have one tip to add... If you put a pic up and then decide to change it, you have to go back to the "Description" box and delete the html, then click "Complete" again and start over with new html. Otherwise it messes up your page, or at least it did mine.
RobertMcDade	Date: July 7, 2005 @ 3:58 AM Oops, sorry I left that out!
timlim	Date: July 16, 2005 @ 4:33 AM thanks so much!
I-Am-God	Date: July 16, 2005 @ 4:35 AM out.
RobertMcDade	Date: July 16, 2005 @ 4:37 AM ps- In the description area of your song, it should look something like this. Yada yada yada... And it should come out as [picture]Yada yada yada... --------------------------------- So if anyone has any problems, just note me, I'd be happy to help!
RobertMcDade	Date: July 16, 2005 @ 4:40 AM Well, the example came out wrong, becuz I used the brakets...but it should be [HTML Code here]Yada yada yada... just with angular brakets, not straight....and it should show up as a picture, with the text next to it. Sry bout that, I didn't think it would mess up in my previous post
ChillinBuzz	Date: July 17, 2005 @ 11:14 PM smart ass, Robert nice code though - there used to be quite a few places the coding could be fiddled with, i used to write text where my webcam should be but someone FIXED THAT
