Basics of Styling Your SpaceHey Profile

Hello friends! I wanted to share some tips I learned during my creative journey on Spacehey so far <3 


You can put all this code right in the About Me section of your profile!

FIRST THINGS FIRST-
Make sure you put everything in between: 

<style> 
</style>

From that point on, it's just learning the right identifiers for the sections. Basic css rules apply!

STYLE YOUR BACKGROUND:


For a repeating small image (like mine which is a butterfly gif) you will enter the following code in between the style tags:

background-image:url(https://i.pinimg.com/originals/20/cc/cf/20cccffef772538203fa36bcad3e9485.gif);
 }


IMPORTANT: You need to make sure you are using the Image URL- not the URL of the site the image lives on. 

Right click or ctrl-click (mac) and select "Copy Image Address" on the image you want to use.
 
To change just the background color, use:

body {
background-color: #000000;
 }


To change your background to a static image, use:

body{background-image:url("BACKGROUND URL HERE");
background-attachment:fixed;
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-position:center,center;}

STYLE THE MIDDLE WHITE SECTION

To change the middle white section, you need to target "main." Here is the code I used, created from a css gradient generator.  You can put a photo here, a repeating image, or a solid color also just like the other background. 


main {
background: rgb(245,173,231);
background: linear-gradient(300deg, rgba(245,173,231,1) 10%, rgba(255,255,255,1) 49%, rgba(247,163,232,1) 100%);
}

To edit your navigation bar, here is the code I used to create mine. Remember you want to put this between the style tags with the others:


nav .links {
background-color: #c99fff;
padding: 3.5px 16px 5.5px 16px;
text-transform: lowercase;
letter-spacing: 1x;
}

STYLE YOUR HEADERS


.profile .friends .heading, .profile .contact .heading, .profile .table-section .heading, .home-actions .heading{
background: rgba(156,56,206,1);
border-radius: 10px;
box-shadow: 2px 2px 7px #000;
color: #fff;
font-family: 'Brush Script MT', cursive;
font-size:35px;
text-transform; uppercase!important;
padding: 2px 7px;
}


You can use my code as a default and go from there.

STYLE TEXT:

<h2 style="color: #9C39CE; font-size:38px; font-family: 'Sacramento', cursive;">Creative Director. TikTok creator. Nostalgia queen. Makeup hoarder. 

</h2

Replace h2 with another text identifier like h1, h3, or p for paragraph text. I used this for my headline that says: "Creative Director. TikTok creator. Nostalgia queen. Makeup hoarder." Keep in mind if you want to use a specific custom font, you will need to make sure you use the @import code from Google Fonts. (See my full profile code for example- Google Fonts will generate it for you!)

ADD AN IMAGE ANYWHERE

<img src="Put your URL here"/>

You can pull images from the hoards of blingees and sparkle gif images from myspace days of yore OR upload your own image to imgur/photobucket and add the URL there.

I hope this helps! I'm still figuring it out as I go and there are some differences between this and myspace. I will create more blogs as I figure them out. <3 


IF YOU WANT SOMETHING TO GET STARTED WITH....

Here is the code I put in the "About Me" section of my profile exactly!

just add the same code you added for the main background image, like this:
body {
background-image: url(insert the image you want);
background-attachment:fixed;
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-position:center,center;}
}
and then for the white middle part:
main {
background-image: url(insert same image from the first part);
background-attachment:fixed;
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-position:center,center;}
}

This a very comprehensive piece, but I'm still unable to get a background to appear. I copy the link, insert it exactly where you say, but all I'm getting is a grey screen.

Sadly not, but I'm giving it another go this afternoon as I've figured out how to do a few other things to my profile page. Thanks for asking though!

a lot of these comments are about the same thing I was struggling with. I figured out I was putting the wrong URL in the code. make sure you open the image in a new tab, not the link. I have a Mac so I had to change my mouse setting so I could right click the image and open image (again not link lol ) in new tabard copy and paste that URL from the searcher. hope this helps.

same here with the image it thought maybe it was me being on Mac but don't see how that would make a difference. then thought maybe it was where im getting my images from but I've tried several. I used to do this all the time now I feel so old. ahhhh
