Myspace theming without the ads
Okay, I’m going to make it very clear before I even write the rest of this. I am not a fan of myspace.com. In fact, I think it is the sludgepit of the internet. So no that we’ve made that clear…
So we’ve all seen the disasters of pages created by millions of teenagers (like myself :/ ), that are impossible to read or even look at without giving yourself a seizure. To top all of that off, they have annoying flash ads that even talk without a mute button. So, today I set out to get rid of them and create my own, special, page.
First off, here is a screenshot for you to drool over:
So to start, the first thing I did was see if I could escape the tables. Once I did this, I knew I could get rid of the ads and every other piece of junk I could. So in the About Me section, I had the following:
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</table>
This allowed me to get out of the table-hell layout that is myspace.com, but I had to do one thing to make it not display the rest of the page. I had to reopen the tables. Code is below:
<table>
<tbody>
<tr><td>
Knowing this, I just added the CSS/HTML and images that can be found in the zip below to the About Me section.

I hope that helps some of you.
NOTE: This *WILL* violate your agreement to the Myspace.com Terms of Service. Until they allow the iframe, we have no way to show their ads.


I think I’ll borrow that code to pretty-up my profile.

Well, myspace code is bad, hence the bad code to escape it.
Tom and Myspace suck. why doesn’t he get real programmers to help out?

It is the stupidest “cool” thing on the net. Which shows how stupid we are for even having a myspace.
