Customizing MySpace

MySpace is a great social networking tool, but making your real estate on MySpace look its best is a daunting task.  This lens was created to point you to free resources to customize MySpace, often with just clicks of your mouse.

Enjoy! 

Customize Your MySpace Layouts 

The MySpace Customizer toolbar installs into Internet Explorer or Firefox and provides one click access to all your areas at MySpace.

Plus, get access to a variety of themed layouts, such as Football, Romantic, Scenic, and more. The toolbar will take you to a website where you can copy the code for a layout. Paste the code into your MySpace "about me" section to activate the layout.

The toolbar also includes tools for creating glittery text, waving text that scrolls across the page, or handwritten love notes you can use to spice up your MySpace.

You can download the toolbar here.

More Free MySpace Layouts 

There are lots of websites offering free MySpace layouts. One of the best I've run across is MySpace Layout Spy.

They have a larger variety of layouts then the MySpace Customizer toolbar, but you have to work a bit harder to find the one you like. You can still use the MySpace Customizer toolbar for the text tools (glitter text, scrolling text, love letter) after you've gotten a layout from here.

Hi, I need your help!! How do I put a link into text? Like www.myspace.com/solarlady, in a sentence. Does this make sense? I just learned, 6 months ago how to cut, copy and paste. I'm self taught and have a lot to learn about the Internet, and my computer. I wish you great success in the lens world.
Any help appreciated.
Cheers Beth
