milliefleurie…I think you are one of those cool page designer in Viki. I can tell you’re a design freak indeed…I might need your help maybe in the future, milliefleurie (tips and tricks wise).

Thanks :slight_smile: Did you see my profile today? I don’t want to take the credits instead of the real artist but the lady with the red hairs are not my creation, I don’t know the owner but I put the credits on the image. I liked this image so much that I put it on my profile, but I don’t like to use images that I did not make myself, I have this impression of stealing the artist.
But… lolllll… Because there is a “but”… For now I will use this one.
I am learning to make many things for the designs, like the glass look on Innocent Lilies. This is so fun and the possibilities are unlimited!!!

Yes I do…:)…I don’t know why…it reminds me of Alice and Wonderland somehow… You put the credits though. It should be alright, I suppose.

Hi! I’m new in the design area and have already tried out some design.

I’ve just got a main problem. How do you guys make the body (background, so you can write on it and put pictures on it) of the cover? Till now, I’ve done it with my programms and then inserted it as a picture, but it doesn’t really looks nice when you have so many white gaps in the cover. I thought, that maybe you can make it with the viki editor, but I didn’t find a way to do so.
I already tried out the “DIV” Button (Creative Div Container) and then made a special container, so the background-container appeared. But I still cannot change the whole colour of the background wall, cause I don’t want it to be grey/white.

And a 2nd question: How do I include different kinds of typefaces to write with them?

Thank you for your help!

  1. Body background; if I get what you’re saying, you just want to change the color of the background to some non-white solid color?

I usually just add the code in by hand, so this is how I’d so it.
Go into the source/code part of the editor.

Before everything else, add <div style="background-color:#FFFFFF;">
And at the end of everything, add </div>

Replace the FFFFFF with a color hex code of your choosing.

  1. Text font faces

Although you’ll see different fonts on some older channels, as far as I’m aware, Viki somehow disabled choosing fonts…? So you probably won’t be able to get different fonts unless you use images of text.

Someone, feel free to correct if I’m mistaken…since I don’t actually do much page designing.

Ah I see! I’ll try it out.
Thank youu very much!!

Yeah… unfortunately. It would be cool to have an inhouse design editor, it would be make things much easier.

Thank you again!!

Hiya!!!

As your explanations were really successful last time, I am finding me here again for another question.

I saw, that many pages have these “enlarge” photos, where you can click on it and enlarge the photos. I think, it’s a good idea, as I can include more picture on the cover page, but it still would be clear for the fans.

Does anybody know, with which source code I can include the photos to make this happen? I already searched in the web, but the codes I used didn’t work the way I wanted to~

Thank you again für your response :smiley:

Best greetings!

Do you have an example?

True! I also wanted to know how. Unfortunately I don’t remember any examples right now… =(

I also have another doubt about html codes. Whenever I try to add a scroll box to my profile, for example, even when I determine where I want it to be (P.S. In the management options it looks perfectly fine), after saving and going to the original page the scroll box appears in a completely different place. It seems that viki doesn’t accept the code that I’m using, or is incompatible with it. Does anyone have a clue about that?
Here’s the code that I used:

<div style="overflow: auto; height: 213px; width: 206px; text-align: centery; background-color:#e8c6bd;position:absolute;top:490px; left:225px;"></div>

Welp!

Okay, so guys… I’m working on a channel design, but I’ve run into a bit of a problem. I’m trying to post a few images vertically, but gaps keep showing up between them. Tried using the vspace thing, but that didn’t do anything.

Any ideas?

@scircus
I solved that issue by setting the alignment to Left. That’s the only solution that I’ve found after a lot of research! Other codes didn’t work =(

@Luzevedo Thanks for the tip! I actually ended up using a bunch of div containers - one per image - and that worked out fine enough.

this is my page http://www.viki.com/users/mag11 check it out, (“follow this dramas” “Dramas that I´ve seen” " Movies that I´ve seen") but I think you´re talking about a div container right?, so I can help if you are talking about this

@mag11 How do you avoid spaces between pictures? Do you use a specific code?
I’ve only tried it once, but after testing many codes the only solution that worked was setting the alignment to left, like I said. Or saving the whole thing instead of using separate images (I think that’s what you did in your profile, am I right?).

When I have the chance I’ll also try scircus suggestion. ^^
Btw, @scircus … you only addded one div container for each image or did you also add a certain code in each one?

@Luzevedo If it’s just one image on top of another, yes, I just use one per image.

you don´t need a specific code to avoid space between pictures, and the code you used to create a div doesn´t work in viki, I use a different one
