The Best In MySpace Layout Information

By Chris Channing


You see them everyday, fancy little designs and artsy templates on Myspace pages. Many Myspace users choose to use a personalized layout for their Myspace. They are unique, and much more interesting than the traditional Myspace default page. The internet comes bundled with tons of options to make your page all about YOU.

Layout codes are usually formed by experienced HTML coders, and are written in the hyper text mark up language. This allows the browser to recognize what it is, and places things accordingly. There are other forms of coding, but you can only use HTML on Myspace. These codes allow you to insert a layout, or images, or special codes for unique widgets and other little virtual gadgets. Layouts are the most popular way to express yourself on Myspace, and let friends know what you are about.

If you don't like what other people create, start learning to create your own! They are easy to create, and it gives you a sense of pride knowing that you can write up your own Myspace layout. Html codes are read differently by different systems and browsers. I know that Firefox hates DIV overlay layouts, and Internet Explorer loves them.

If you want to just find a pre-made layout, you can check out createblog.com, they have some of the internets most popular layouts for Myspace. If you like flowers, there is a layout for it. Want something with race cars? You got it! Or maybe you want a Hello Kitty theme? There is bound to be a layout for her too! With so many possibilities, it's impossible to find something that you simply don't like.

Createblog, Whateverlife, Skem9, and many more sites have an endless number of pages filled with layouts. Ask designers on Myspace if they would mind creating a custom design for you, and ask friends. Its all about using your resources that are available, and searching for the right person, theme, or designer. Its important to note that layouts are property of the creator. "Stealing" it or "jocking" is rude, and illegal in some cases.
