This is a random question but, why don't people make classic type MySpace profiles anymore?
You know, like the profiles that just had transparency, random images and decoration, custom fonts, backgrounds and different colors, embeds and sometimes scrollboxes.
No shade to the beautiful and creative MySpace layouts out there, but sometimes it's also fun seeing something that could probably throw 30 something year old Millennial back to 2007. Sometimes, more messy profiles are the coolest.
Now onto my second point, I think it'd also be pretty nice if people started coding their own profiles. Even if you need to rip [NOT STEAL] certain parts of layouts, creativity is always fun to see.
I've always coded my own profiles. Well, not create my own code of course you know what I mean. What I meant by that was I usually only take certain things I like from other layouts to help mine look better [Like I looted some stamps from the layouts section of MySpace.. I'm not saying SpaceHey]. Looking around for things that you want to change in your profile, or for your own wallpaper, images, and stamps, blinkies, etc. Is challenging, but also fun at the end!
At the end of the day there's nothing wrong with using fully premade layouts [not layouts as in stamp dumps, or codes to help make your profile more special], but it's always a special experience creating your very own profile for the first time!
And I'd love to see more people customize their profiles, although it is time consuming most of the time, it's a super refreshing feeling after you're done with it, eh?

I coded my own layout. The moment I joined this site, I knew that I didn't want my profile to look like every other profile on it; I didn't have any interest in using one of the many layouts created by other users. I didn't know how to code, so I learned how to. I also scoured old sites all over the web for blinkies, buttons, stickers, and stamps. I even created some of my own blinkies and stickers! I think more people need to do what I did, for sure.
YOUR PROFILE IS AMAZING! And me tooo, I wanted to go for a more classic look for mine so it didn't take that long, yours must've taken ages I can't imagine actually making an effort to make something so neat LOL.
I agree loads, I wish people were more creative on here.

Tbh I agree Ive been contemplating learning basic coding for that exact reason, the only reason Ive been hesitant is bc idk what Id use coding for asides from my SpaceHey account... @_@
