Making Backgrounds is Easy!

• Choose a Blank Background..

• (or "Cheat Sheet" as they are called)

• CLICK HERE  (to find a few)

• Copy and paste it into a new reply...

  
  

• Minimize the message then go to the tile you want to add to your background....

  

  Right click it and select properties.

• Highlight and then copy (Ctrl+C) the whole url address that appears like this...

  
  

• Go back to your reply with the table in it.

•  Click in the part of the frame you wish to add the tile then click on the table button..

• (Looks like a calender)....then...
  

•   

NB: to paste the url into the box just  hold down Ctrl and click V (ctrl+V)                       

• And then click update....

•   It should look like this then....
  
  

• Repeat the click in each part of the frame and edit the table with colours  or tiles you want.  You can also change the width of the frame sections by clicking the Padding and Spacing option in the edit section and increasing or decreasing the numbers . You can also change the colour and size of the borders by clicking..Yes you guessed it  'Borders'

•  

If you have made the tile yourself you need to have it saved somewhere on the internet, fotki.com or photobucket are good storage places,  or just put your tiles somewhere in a page in your msn group.

Good luck! Annie (aka Zippy)
