what does "jocking" and "hot linking" mean on xanga icon sites?

Jocking means taking something from someone and not giving any credit to that person.

Hot linking means taking something from someone and keeping the same URL and not saving it to your computer and uploading to an image hosting site yourself.

Does this have to do with icons, I'm guessing?

Fourteen.Female.

so last night before getting into the shower I look and my left breast has what looks to be stretch marks almost all over it [exaggeration]. My right one is perfectly normal.
I thought it was growing or something?
Is it normal?

Yes, it's normal to have stretch marks.

for myspace. you no were it says ONLINE and that lil person... well peeps are changin it now, and i would like to no how...i rate high.... thx in advance

I've done this to my Myspace also.

You just have to either make your own icon or just a saying such as "Yeah, I'm online."

The code that you need to use to change the online icon is:

[style type="text/css"]
table table table td.text div img {visibility:hidden;}
table table table td.text div {
background-image:url("URL");
background-repeat:no-repeat;}
table table table td.text table table div img {visibility:visible;}
table table table td.text table table div {
background-image:none;}
[/style]

Replace all the brackets, [ and ], with the greater than and less than arrows, < and >, or the code won't work.

First of all, go to your MS Paint or a paint program that you use and make something that you want to replace the original online icon. Try not to make it big because it may become cut off. Once you've made it, save it to your computer, upload it to an image hosting site (http://www.imageshack.us or http://www.tinypic.com), and paste the direct URL between the quotations in the code where it says URL. Then, paste it into your 'About Me' section.

If you want to use a generator to do this, then go to http://icongen.myspacehtml.net.

This should work, by the way. If not, then you can feel free to ask me any questions.

for myspace....how do you get the hearts to fall...i rate high....thx in advance

You just have to enter & hearts ; (without the spaces) into a section on this site and it'll generate the code for you. The code is long and it would confuse you, since I would have to change everything around.

what is the difference between giving heads and s blow job! i kinda know what they are but then someone used it in a weird way and i just want to make sure i have them straight! thanks a bunch!
love ya!

They both mean the same thing which is preforming oral sex on a male. There's just a few names that describe this and 'head' and 'blow job' are two of them.

Does anyone know what the name of the song is that goes like, 'Every mornin when I wake up! Before I put on my makeup...I say a little prayer for you!'. its in the movie my best friends wedding. I really liked the song and want to know what its called and who sings it. Does anyone here know?

It's "I Say A Little Prayer" by Diana King, as the soundtrack lists.

okay i had braces for about 3, 4, 5 months somewhere around there.. and well i keep braking my brackets. every single time i went to the dentist i had a broke bracket sometimes even , 2 or 3. and liike he gets mad and so does my mom , cause she has to pay 50 dollars for everyone i brake. and i broke 10 already. i dont try to brake them.. and its usually like around a week before i go. i brake it. and i dknt know what to do. and today im like mom whens the next time im going to the orthodontist and shes like i dunno did you brake another bracket and im like yeah ii tol dyou like a month ago and shes like no you didnt yyour freaking lying to me. ii mean i dont thiink anyone has ever broken this much brackets. i dknt know what to do... HELP!

Yeah, that's not a good thing. The glue that your orthodontist used probably isn't strong enough, since my brackets never came off when I had braces. How are you braking them? You need to stop. Instead of having your mom pay money, she could be spending it on something else. If this developed into a habit, find another one because you are delaying time and you're braces are probably not going to come off when they're supposed to.

this year I want to dress more preppy. What are some styles that look preppy? I rate very high!

Pretty much anything from American Eagle, Hollister, and Abercrombie and Fitch. Abercrombie and Fitch is quite expensive so if you're willing to pay about $100 for a pair of jeans, go right ahead. Anything with sequins and lace, it's sort of 'preppy'.

Sometimes in the day I feel like water or pee is leaking out of my vagina
Is this normal? and even sometimes I get stains in my underwear.

Yes, it's normal, don't worry. That's discharge and every female has it.

hey, i know you get questions like this a lot and i'm sorry! but i just wanted to know how i can like center the words on the "about me" section and make like a few words a bigger size you know what i mean? alright thanks a lot!

You just have to enter these two codes into your 'About Me' section:

[center]TEXT[/center]

and

[font size=#]TEXT[/font]

Just put then around the text that you want centered and replace the brackets, [ and ], with the greater than and less than arrows, < and >, or the codes won't work. Make sure you change the '#' to a number you want.

If you have Windows Media Player, then I suggest that you go to http://cdzinc.com to listen to music. You just have to search for a song and you'll probably find it.

OK, my hair is just about shoulder length, maybe a little bit longer. It's thick and reallyyyyy wavy and frizzy. If i straighten it at night, like right before i go to bed, shood i keep it up or down overnight? Which will help it stay straight?

My hair's really long so I usually put mine up and in the morning, I'll just restraighten it if there is a crease, caused by the elastic I used. You can either keep it up or down, it doesn't matter but it may wave if you sleep in a certain position. Putting your hair up will help it stay straight.

I really just want to change my font in my xanga to something I want not what they have and also I really want to know how to have a different color when you bold something. Help please!

< style type="text/css" >
.left, .blogbody, table.footer, .standard, .leftmodulefontcolor, td, p {
/* edits main text */
font:NAME;
}
.blogbody b, .standard b, p b, strong, b, em, u {
/* edits bolded text in your entry */
font-weight: bold;
color: COLOR;
}
< /style >

Remove the spaces right before the arrows and change the font and color to anything you want and paste it in your custom header.

im going into the highschool next year and i heard that you have to carry like a little backpack around school.. i have a normal sized backpack like what you would wear to the middle school.. is that too big? what should i doo? like should i get one backpack to cary around school and the other for home? PLEASE HELP!

At my high school, you don't need to carry a backpack around, unless you want to bring one to school and keep it in your locker. The things you hear aren't always true, unless you know for a fact. A normal sized backpack should be fine and you don't need to buy another one. At your orientation, you can always ask and you'll get your answer if you do infact need to carry a backpack around.

ok this is my first time having my period n ive had it for 5 days already and my mom told me its only suppossed to last 3-5 days and the longest shes ever had it was for 7 days. please help me , clue me in on whats going on!!!!! thanks sooooooooooo much

sincerely,
troubled girly

That's not always true. Your period is going to be irregular, meaning you don't know when it'll come or how long it'll last. Nothing's going on, don't worry about it. It's your first period and it's normal to have it so far for five days. It may last for another day or two but no one knows for sure.

I will be freshman this year. And I'm so scared and nervous. My curent friends are like family, but I can't really be myserlf around them. They are too much into guys. But I've been through alot with them in middle school. And I don't really have any other close friends. So what should I do? Should I find new friends, or stick with the ones I got?

Do both, make new friends and stick with the ones you've got. High school is going to change your life so you're bound to make many new friends. I'm going to be a freshman also and I know that I'm going make new friends and keep the ones that I have now. Yes, you're going to be nervous for the first few weeks of starting high school but that will change, don't worry.
