i had a guy helping me with it on mygirlfund.com but i gave him my email to send the pics too and they deleted my account for it so im back to square one. i really need help with desiging graphics for my profile. the ones i made are blurry and crap lol. the only decent one is for the raffle and the other guy made it. i have a few ideas as to what i want to do but i lack the skills to do it. so i was thinking maybe one of you guys would b willing to do it for trade. id b willing to make custom pics or vids or give you some of my worn panties or something like that for your help we can work out a deal if your interested. or if any of you girls are good with stuff like this and would b willing to help me out just cuz your amazing thatd b great too. of course your welcome to the previous deal but idk if youd b interested lol

:hello2:

hi,
Welcome "fairly new girl" :mrgreen:

just looked at your profile..
The lists being jpeg you cant hi-light the text to contrast it for easier reading.
Could barely read the pink over the red sox but ....

all I can say is WoW.. :o

You seriously sell used tampons, pads and bloody undies ? :shock: :doh:

I take it you've never seen the 'for sale' listings on the site ebanned, have you? :lol:
 
Re: anyone willing to do profile work in exchange for someth

Hi sweet pea! Do you mind if I ask how you make you banners/graphics now? Maybe we can help you do them yourself?

:D have you tried picnik.com? They are closing down in April or May but for now they are a fun option and I really like them! I'll be sad to see them go. I use photoshop as well and am trying to do more there to get ready for picnik's departure. It's not quite as "dummy proof" as picnik but it still turns out great stuff, just take longer.
There must be something else similar to picnik out there!
I hope I've helped!
 
Re: anyone willing to do profile work in exchange for someth

I am interested in helping but I won't create any informational graphics because they are just a bad idea for many reasons.

What you need help with is formatting and stylizing your profile so that it is easy to use, easy to read, and easy to update. You shouldn't have to go back and get help from someone every time you wish to make a change. And you should never grant someone access to your account.

I will create a basic account and edit that profile so you can see how it looks before you decide to use it.

Feel free to PM me on here or on MFC (BoltEyeAm on MFC)
 
Re: anyone willing to do profile work in exchange for someth

I don't think you can, many places say no personal information is to be given out, not even from model to model.
 
Re: anyone willing to do profile work in exchange for someth

I can't believe MFC doesn't allow unordered list HTML tags but they allow embedding and iframes
:angry4:
 
Re: anyone willing to do profile work in exchange for someth

you can send pics but you cant give out personal info thats y my account got stoped i gave him my email address and aparently mgf wasnt happy with that
 
Re: anyone willing to do profile work in exchange for someth

Update: http://profiles.myfreecams.com/BoltProfile

Ok so the general idea here draw attention to a specific events/sales/rules ect that sweatpea has defined. My goal is to do this without using text images for several reasons.
- Image Text cannot be searched
- Image Text cannot be selected/copied
- Image Text cannot be re-sized or reformatted with style sheets
- Image Text cannot be re-sized to fit with the various browser window widths
And likely less important here...
- Image Text cannot be translated to different languages by text translators
- Image Text cannot be read by screen readers intended to assist the blind.
- Image Text cannot be referenced by search engine bots

That isn't a complete list but I think it gets my obsessive compulsive point across. So the question is what do these images offer that the plain text does not? This is the ability to catch the eye and be flashy. Therefore my goal keep the descriptions out of the images yet still create something that will catch your eye and look pretty.

My solution is to use CSS stylesheets for page design and use html div tags for each flashy section.
The <div> tag is what is used to create different divisions of a webpage. It's function is almost limitless but for our purposes we will use div to create attractive areas of the profile that can be reused and edited with little effort.

Here is an example of the text typed into the description area of the profile.
Code:
<div class=raffle>Enter My raffle to get totally sweet stuff that you would for sure enjoy always and forever.  I will send it directly to your mother and she will instantly be proud of you.<br>
	<div class=tab>&hearts; 50 Tokens 1 Ticket</div>
	<div class=tab>&hearts; 200 Tokens 5 Tickets</div>
	<div class=tab>&hearts; 1 Billion Tokens Instant Win</div>
</div>
And here is a picture of what it might look like.

Now this is far from an artistic master peace as the the image background was quickly thrown together and the text is relatively un-formated but hopefully the idea is there.

Let me know what you guys think.
 
Re: anyone willing to do profile work in exchange for someth

ok bolteye am i really like your idea but im not entirely sure how you did that or what i need to do to make up the rest although i do like how easy it will b to edit thats a major bonus of the idea. i didnt see anywhere in your code where u inserted the background image? thank you so much for your help and sorry to b suck a pain i only understand basic photo editing and very very basic html
 
Re: anyone willing to do profile work in exchange for someth

The backgound linked in the CCS page. My assumption is you would never need to edit the image but you might consider adding more div classes. (Notice the 'class=raffle' in the code in my last reply.)
I'm at work now but when I'm done I can provde the full CSS code and some tips/instructions for editing and maintaining.
 
Re: anyone willing to do profile work in exchange for someth

ok cool that would b awsome ive never done anything in ccs before but i have done a bit of html.but if you show me how to do like one section or banner thingy i can make the rest by coping what i did in the first one.

Ahhh I typed the wrong letters for CSS my nerd friends are never going to let me hear the end of this. CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets.... (since that is really important lol)

Anyways Feel free to read a little more of my progress rambling...

I spiffed up the page a bit more and added some custom classes for text customization. I also think it might be better to use the image as part of the background instead of the way I had it. Here is my background image.
53rafflebackground.jpg


This image is used as the DIV background for a raffle. Most of the image is not intended to be seen. The most important thing to do if you choose to make your own is to make the background area as unobtrusive as possible. This means it should be mostly all the same color/darkness. The background really shouldn't be your focus at all, you might even see it a couple times without realizing it is unique and that is the point.

Secondly you want to keep corner images the same width and the corner of the picture should be the most interesting. part. The whole idea being that no mater how big your box is it will still look good. I've attached two extremes of a wide format and a tall format to illustrate my point.

Re: anyone willing to do profile work in exchange for someth

ok i love what you did with the pantie background it looks awesome but i have a few questions did you purposely put them in the about me and the intrest and hobbies? cuz there are two copies of each. also still have no idea how to put the image into the ccs. i kinda under stand the div tags and the coding but where do i put the code and how do i match it up with an the image? im still kinda confused about this but i think im kinda getting it now and i really think this is the way to go with my profile you were so right thank you so much for your help

I put two copies in just to illustrate two different ideas of where to locate them in your profile. Let me draft a brief description and I'll try to post it tonight for you.

Also I may use some of the same images I made with some alterations for another model who I offered to build a profile for. Her cam score is just over 2k so I doubt many people if any will notice the similarities.
 
Re: anyone willing to do profile work in exchange for someth

Introduction
  • I feel like I've been introducing this for a while now but anyways. The goal is to add fancy areas to your MFC profile that allows for easy editing without making new images everytime. For the sake of this post I am calling these AdBoxes (short for advertisement)
    Now I could spend as much time writing this post as I did creating the content but I won't so please ask if you have any questions.
Also go Here to see the final result.

A brief introduction to HTML and CSS
  • HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) HTML uses tags denoted with angle brackets to layout webpages. For our purposes you will only need to use a few of them but if you have never used html w3schools.com can be a great reference.

DIV tags:
  • The most common HTML tag we will be using is the <div> tag. The DIV tag requires both and opening tag and a closing tag each time you use it.
    • <div>This text is enclosed in a pair of div tags</div>

    Now a div tag by itself isn't very useful until you apply attributes to it. In HTML a tag attribute is section in a tag that defines addition information. You may be familiar with the attributes used in a html link such as: <a href="http://www.google.com">Google</a>

Classes:
  • The attribute we will be using is the class attribute. A class assigns that tag to a group. By itself a class group has no meaning but it can be very useful when using CSS to assist your HTML. To to use classes in html your tags will look like this:
    • <div class="anything_you_want">classes can be named anything you choose</div>
    Now although browsers usually allow you to exclude the quotes they will be needed if you wish to define multiple classes.
    • <div class="class1 class2 class3">separate multiple Classes with spaces</div>
    This DIV is part of the Class1, Class2, and Class3 classes and have properties of each applied to it.

Nested Tags
  • Nested Tags is a fancy way of saying "tags within tags". You have as many tags within tags as you wish as long as you close them off properly. For example
    • <div class="BigBox">
      • <div class="InsideBox">Inside Box1</div>
      </div>
    To help keep track of your tags make your HTML look as 'pretty' as you can by creating new lines and using tabs.

CSS (Cascading Style Sheets)
  • The general idea behind using CSS is to give web developers a way to easily maintain and update the formatting of their webpages. Say you created a Massive webpage with hundreds of pages (like this forum for example). Then one day you decide that you are tired of Black text and want to change all the text to Blue. If you used CSS then you can change all the text on the whole site in one place instead of updating hundreds of files.

    Secondly and more importantly for our proposes, cascading style sheets allow you to minimize the amount of formatting details in your HTML in-order to keep it easier to maintain. Since there is a lot of formatting behind our AdBoxes this will allow you to edit the contents with minimal changes to the HTML

    So how does this work? Remember those classes? We can use CSS to define special properties for every tag with a class we define. For example say we gave 30 DIV tags the class of "BigBox". We can refer to "BigBox" in our CSS and assign all kinds of formatting to it. We can give it a border, change all the text formatting inside, give it a background image, control the size on the page, how close it sits to other boxes, ect, ect. For example the Raffle Box CSS is as follows
    • div.raffle {
      • background-image: url("http://img543.imageshack.us/img543/4418/53rafflebackground.jpg");
        border: 3px groove #d8719e;
        background-repeat: no-repeat;
        background-position: bottom left;
        padding: 10px 10px 10px 200px;
        background-color: #D8719E;
        font-size: 25px;
        margin: 5px;
      }
    But instead of adding all that information to your HTML your all you need to do is enclose it in a <div class="raffle> tag.

The Code
  • Before you copy this to your profile you create a new text file on your computer and copy all the code to it. EVERY time you need to update your profile you will need to copy from your text file to your profile. This is because after you submit your code MFC will not necessary keep the same formatting and will even change things are important for it to work.

    CSS Code: (note this code is for the entire profile layout, not just these AdBoxes. This means if you want to change your Background image later you will need to edit the CSS. If you do not want to change your whole profile layout and only wish to copy the AdBoxes and extra class functions then copy everything below and including the 'div.raffle' section and add it to the end of your CSS page.
Code:
.outer_body, body {
}
a:link, a:active, a:hover {
}
a:visited {
}
body {
    background-attachment: scroll;
    background-position: left top;
    background-repeat: repeat;
}
body, td {
    color: #000000;
    font-family: 'Verdana';
    font-size: 12px;
    font-style: normal;
    font-weight: normal;
}
td .clock {
    font-size: 9px;
}
.container_padding {
    height: 100%;
    padding: 0px;
}
.container_transparency {
    background-color: #FFFFFF;
    height: 100%;
    width: 100%;
}
.container {
    background-color: transparent;
    color: #000000;
    height: 100%;
    padding: 0px;
    position: relative;
}
.container .heading {
    color: #000000;
    font-family: 'Verdana';
    font-size: 14px;
    font-style: normal;
    font-weight: normal;
    padding: 0px;
}
.content {
    padding: 0px;
}
body {
    background-image: url("http://img.myfreecams.com/photos2/925/9254498/748-204-910-134-3228067.jpg");
}
.thingy {
    position: absolute;
    visibility: hidden;
}

table table table{
	background-color: white;
}

div.raffle {
    background-image: url("http://img543.imageshack.us/img543/4418/53rafflebackground.jpg");
    border: 3px groove #d8719e;
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-position: bottom left;
    padding: 10px 10px 10px 200px;
    background-color: #D8719E;
    font-size: 25px;
	margin: 5px;
}

div.panty {
    background-image: url("http://oi44.tinypic.com/2qa5x84.jpg");
    border: 3px groove #d8719e;
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-position: bottom left;
    padding: 10px 10px 10px 200px;
    background-color: #D8719E;
    font-size: 25px;
	margin: 5px;
}

div.center {
    text-align: center;
    padding-right: 200px;
}
div.right {
    text-align: right;
}
div.small {
    font-size: 60%;
}
div.big {
    font-size: 140%;
}
div.tab {
    text-indent: 50px;
}
div.whiteshadow {
	text-shadow: 2px 2px 2px white
}
div.arial {
	font-family: arial;
}
div.comic {
	font-family: comic Sans MS;
}
div.times {
	font-family: times New Roman;
}
div.impact {
	font-family: impact;
}
div.italic {
	font-style: italic;
}
div.bold {
	font-weight: bold;
}

  • Here are some samples of what the HTML might look like.
Code:
<div class="raffle comic whiteshadow">
	<div class="big center">March Raffle!</div>
	<div class="arial bold">Enter My raffle to get totally sweet stuff that you would for sure enjoy always and forever.  I will send it directly to your mother and she will instantly be proud of you.</div>
	<div class="tab">&hearts; 50 Tokens 1 Ticket</div>
	<div class="tab">&hearts; 200 Tokens 5 Tickets</div>
	<div class="tab">&hearts; 1 Billion Tokens Instant Win</div>
	<div class="right small">Raffle ends on March 30th 2012.</div>
</div>
<br>
<div class="panty comic whiteshadow">
	<div class="big center">Panties!</div>
	<div class="tab">&hearts; Panty 1 100 Tokens</div>
	<div class="tab">&hearts; Panty 2 200 Tokens</div>
	<div class="tab">&hearts; Panty 3 300 Tokens</div>
	<div class="tab">&hearts; Panty 4 500 Tokens</div>
	<div class="tab">&hearts; Panty 5 600 Tokens</div>

	<div class="tab">&hearts; Panty 5 600 Tokens</div>
	<div class="tab">&hearts; Mega Pantie 1000 Tokens</div>
</div>
  • Lastly Here is a List of the additional text formatting tags I added CSS for. It isn't too hard to add more but feel free to let me know if you need help.
    • center : Centers Text
    • right : Aligns text to the right
    • small : Decreases font size from 100% to 60%
    • big : Increases font size from 100% to 140%
    • tab : Indents text 50pixels
    • whiteshadow : adds a white shadow behind your text
    • arial : sets font to Arial
    • comic : sets font to Comic Sans MS
    • times : sets font to Times new Roman
    • impact : sets font to Impact
    • italic : makes text italic
    • bold : makes text bold
 
Re: anyone willing to do profile work in exchange for someth

Wowzers. Seriously. I so cannot wrap my head around this at all, but to the ladies and gentlemen that know how to do any of this, you deserve medals and awards and trophies. :clap:

I just create images and link 'em all together somehow. :doh:

ok so still working on the coding for my new profile wanna put a offline tip button there but i dont have a premium account. will someone check my link and let me know if its right? this is the link http://www.myfreecams.com/mfc2/php/tip.php?broadcaster_id=9254498&request=tip

Gasp! Wow that works. I don't know why MFC doesn't make that available by default.
I once got banned from a models room for asking how to make an offline tip. :lol:

You just need to make sure that the broadcaster_id doesn't change for any reason. (i have no idea)
