Alright so the start menu/task bar/ thing on my computer used to run along the bottom...but my friend did something (she doesn't know what) so now it is running vertically along the right side. If you know how to reverse this so it is at the bottom again i would really appreciate it. I'll rate 5's for anyone who can give me directions on changing it.

It's actually quite easy to move your task bar. Just click and hold down on the task bar and move it towards the bottom of your desktop (just like you would move a folder to your Recycle Bin). Clicking on the spacious part of the task bar, not the buttons, will move it.

is a 1/2 inch alot to grow in a year? im 14 - and someone has told me that you stop growing when ur around 18.

It depends, since everyone's different. I grew half an inch since last year and that seems a lot to me. Not everyone stops growing around the age of eighteen. Some stop earlier than that age.

thanks

Instead of uploading a picture from your computer onto your column, you can upload it to an image hosting site such as http://www.tinypic.com or http://www.imageshack.us. Once the picture is uploaded, copy the direct link, and paste the URL into the 'URL of a picture of you' section of your Profile Settings and it'll work that way. This option allows you to upload a picture of any size.

ok if any of you guys have pictures you can answer my question and duhh ill give you an easy 5.

when i load my pic thing on my advice column, the rest of it gets all weird! if you inserted a picture right in your advice column, feedback me and ill give you my advice column name to show you want i mean.

thanks!

I checked out your column and it seems that your picture is uploaded correctly. What exactly 'gets all weird'? Your information is supposed to be on the side, since that's how your layout is, if you were referring to that.

Hey I was woundering how do you make a playist ?? I have no idea how to. And i really want one. Can anyone give me a site and tell me how to so incase I wont have to use the site. Thanks a Bunch

This site gives a decent explanation on how to make a playlist: http://www.createblog.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=34297.

For music codes, http://cdzinc.com is a site where you can find pretty much any song.

I know you've all heard this question many times...but you know how you can get pictures to move across in a line, i think its called a marquee, or soemthing. What is the code for that?

I rate 5's all the way!!!

There are a few different types of marquees but the normal one that moves from right to left is:

< marquee >TEXT< /marquee >

(Remove the spaces before or after the arrows and it'll work.)

For more marquees, you can go to http://www.myspacehtml.net/marq.htm.

i was wondering if anyone knows how tp put pics. on myspace not like under view pictures like on the main page?? i'll rate high thanks a bunch!

If you have a picture that you want to put on your Myspace, save it to your computer, upload it to an image hosting site (http://www.tinypic.com or http://www.imageshack.us), and copy the tag URL. Then, paste it into any section of your Myspace by clicking on the 'Edit My Profile' link on your homepage. It's not hard at all.

okay i want to get my belly button pierced. and i hear it hurts so bad! like really bad. and i was just wondering if thats like really true and if someone could like give me hints on to make it not hurt like breathing techniques or something to make it hurt less.

Actually, it doesn't hurt at all. The pain feels like a little pinch and you'll hardly tell when your belly button is pierced. You can ask the body piercer to numb your belly button and you won't feel anything at all. Try to think of something else, other than the needle when you're getting your belly button pierced.

Hey im new to this site. And I just got 1 rating. I was woundering how many times do you have to be rated for it to show up on your column ?? Because after I got rated I looked at my column and it never showed up. So thats why I was woundering how many times do you have to be rated to have it show on your column ? Thanks

You need to be rated at least five times for your rating to show up on your column. Refer to this site for more information: http://www.advicenators.com/faq.php?f=24.

Does AIM store your conversations?

The actual AIM itself, no, it does not log your conversations. The only way for AIM to log your conversations is to download an add-on such as AIM+ or Dead AIM. You can find these programs by searching for them at http://www.download.com. You can save your conversations but that would be a waste of time.

anyone know where i can get music codes for myspace? not the video, just music! thx

http://cdzinc.com

I get all of my music codes from that site. You can pretty much find any song there.

You can also get music codes from Xanga sites; just go to http://www.xanga.com/NuMbA1_MuSiC_sOuRcE and browse through the sites.

well my friend asked me a question and it say that I have 1 new in my inbox but when I click on it and when I get to the page it says I have no unanswered questions? waht do I do about this?

Your friend probably deleted the question she asked you, after she sent it, and usually, it'll appear like that. It happens a lot and there's nothing you can do about this. Just have your friend send it to you again but let them know not to delete until you answer it.

I was wondering if someone could find the music code to go on a xanga page for the song "EVERYBODYS FOOL" by evanescnce... not the live version though plllzz! I rate high!
*thanks

http://cdzinc.com/K/16/rock/E_H/evanescence.html

The code is on that page. Just right click on the link next to the song title and copy the shortcut to get the URL for it.

I'm thinking about getting my cartilage pierced.. but im afraid its gonna hurt a lot. Does it? How much does it hurt? (How much more than getting ur lobe pierced?)

It's not going to hurt at all. Of course it's going to hurt more than getting your lobes pierced, since there are nerves in this part of your ear. My left cartilage is double pierced and when I got it pierced, it felt like a pinch. Don't worry about it.

Does anyone know the code for URL's for Myspace. Like, insted of the URL it's like "Click Here". Anyone know how to do that? :)

Click Here

Just insert the URL between the quotations.

I know a lot of people ask questions about how to do stuff, and I usually use those to help me with it. I'm getting tired of this, and can anybody just give me a website that has all the stuff I need to know?

http://www.myspacehtml.net

It has everything you need for Myspace, ranging from codes to generators.
