Some Helpful Graphic Sites/Links to News, Guidelines...

Hi all.

This is just a quick list of different sites that you may find helpful if you need to resize a picture, make a banner, make a gif transparent or practice your html. This will probably be changed -- added to and sites deleted as needed.

This is just a start:

http://www.snapfiles.com/get/framefun.html - making different frames for your pics (free)

http://www.dafont.com/en/ - dafont - literally hundreds! of fonts from pixel on up

www.lissaexplains.com - nice html tutorial site, with subjects broken down from the simple to the more complex and lots of examples

www.W3schools.com - another html help/tutorial site

www.geocities.com/graphics_help/index.html - very basic HTML, CSS help and codes and a step by step how to make basic banners, siggys and avatars using Paint (hopefully will be expanded for help in making backgrounds, etc.)

These are just a few sites that I have visited and used in the past.
Hope these help you with your auctions..

Don't forget that all Premium Members get their own area to practice HTML codeing and see what it looks like before you go to eBay.
So here is another reasn to go Premium Now!!!!

When I was making the polymer baby sculpts, I loved going here to choose a background. She also has an awesome triple background maker. It's free, the only thing she asks is that you add a little code in your auction so she receives credit for the tiles.

Hey angel does she have any other ones besides the flowers.
Can I upload my images there and use her progeams with mine as well?

Also do you know of any that have toys for backgrounds?
I can't seem to find any.

 

[AngelsPeak]

If you go into her triple background maker, you can find plain templates, that's what I use for my auctions now, other than that, that's all she has.

As far as toy ones, I've never seen any myself. That site I mentioned up in the penthouse has 4 librarys full of templates, I think you'd like some of them, but no toys. You can choose one, then just copy the html into your own auction.

Cool thanks for the info. I'll go look at what they have.
Let you know what I found..

Well, if it was THAT simple we'd all be experts eh? Not to metion the time factor, maybe I'll get to learn it in about 10 years when everyones moved on to something else...*sigh*...always a day late....:shake:

LOL Angel that sounds just like me! I always learn something and get so excited and want to show it off and find out it's old news by then

Hey Surfer it took me a couple of hours to check out all of those sites. Too much time on my hands and yours too i see :lol:
