You can let your air dry, since it comes out better that way.

Hey All! I was just wondering is there any meaning behind "X3" when people do that? is it supposed to look like some sort of a heart or something? I was just wondering because i have been seeing it alot lately in screen names ect.

thanks!
-KelZzZ-

It's just a heart and it can either mean love or just a regular heart. It's the same as < 3 (with the spaces together) but since instant messengers don't all the arrows, people use and 'x' to replace it. So yeah, it's just a heart.

Ok when I'm answering questions, I see the little bluish-green circles on the top right corner of them, mostly they are empty but some have happy faces and some have sad faces. What to the blank, happy, and sad mean???

If you check out this link, http://www.advicenators.com/faq.php?t=4, it will explain everything about question ratings and those faces next to each question.

I had a friend sleepover last night, and now she wont get up!!!!!! I've tried everything, and i'm absolutly starving! What should I do?!

You don't have to wait until your friend wakes up to get something to eat. Just go get something to eat and then just wait until she wakes up. It's not like you're at her house.

hi i was the one who asked about the xanga well when i added a new layout and put that code it still doesnt work. am i putting the layout in the right place? where do i put it? thx

You can either put it into your 'Custom Header' (it's at the top and you just have to go to the 'Input your own HTML' or something along those lines) or in your 'Webstats'.

What are the tell tale signs that some one is cheating on you?

If he/she doesn't return your calls, hangs out with you as often, calls you another name than your own, cancels get-togethers, acts differently around you than before, won't let you answer a phone call on their phone, doesn't say 'I love you' back, and so on are signs that someone is probably cheating on you.

How do i delete the open tags? i dont know how to ? when i change the layout the old one still shows up?

Do you still have your old layout code in your coding? You need to delete everything and then just add your present layout code. You don't need to delete the open tags; if a code started off with < style > and didn't have a < / style > at the end of it, just add it. An open tag is just when you don't add the ending of it to close it.

my myspace isn't working. i went to www.musicvideocodes.com and you pick colors and stuff and then they give you a code. i pasted the code into my info.. and it didnt work. where do i paste the code? haha thanks

You paste the code in any section you want but usually, you paste it into your 'About Me' section and it should work. You can always try using another site for HTML codes for your Myspace such as http://www.myspacehelp.uni.cc.

I've had an xanga for a bit now but everytime someone looks at it it only shows the banner. No one sees my entrys or anything else!! How do I fix this! I rate! Thanks!!

Are there any open tags or messed up color codes in your coding? Make sure you check that because most likely, that usually causes your Xanga to become messed up. If you're one of those people who add a lot of codes, get rid of some so your page will load up faster. If none of these options work, then go to a help site for Xanga such as http://blogring.net or http://www.createblog.com and people will help you out there.

I didn't really know what to put this under, but oh well. Around my house there is NOTHING to do. I mean I have a ps2 and tvs and IMs. But it's all so boring. Does anyone know any good websites I can go to or anything I can do to make life more exciting? P.s. I live in a small area with like nothing in the town to do and I have no one til like 3 during the day to take me anywhere.

For sites to go on, you can go to http://www.ebaumsworld.com. It will keep you occupied for a long time.

I sent something to someone's inbox on MYSPACE, but now i'm having 2nd thoughts about sending it.Is there any way that I can delete the letter I sent them because they didn't read it yet. Thanks for your help!

If you go to your Home page and scroll down to the 'My Mail' section, click on the 'sent' link and it will bring you to your outgoing messages. If it doesn't say 'read' next to the message you want to stop from getting to that particular person, you can delete it. I don't know if this stops that person from getting the message because I don't delete my sent messages but it should. If it doesn't, then there is nothing you can do.

do u have to have a paid account to have a background??? if so, how do you get one?!?!?!
I would really appreciate any advice from someone who actually KNOWS the answer
Signed,
lynessa

Nope, you don't need to have a paid account in order to have a background on your column. If you want a background, choose one from this site http://www.advicenators.com/backgrounds.php or any other site, and paste the URL into your Column Settings, http://www.advicenators.com/style.php. It will tell you where to paste the code and such on that page. If you want a paid account, then go here; http://www.advicenators.com/paidaccounts.php.

What's the quickest time it's ever taken for your account to be upgraded after you paid? I know it takes a while but I'm just wondering how long it took for the current paid users.

It usually takes about 48 hours for the admin to activate your paid account. If your account still hasn't been activated, chances are, the admin has been busy. You can always send her a question, asking her to activate your account, like Draak has mentioned.

i am 14 and want to work at cvs. do you think they will hire me this young? and how much money might i make in a 6 day week?

They probably won't hire you, since you're 14 years old. You have to be a little bit older but if they did hire you, they wouldn't pay you too much. I can't tell you for sure, since every state pays employees differently.

k I really want to lose weight but i cant
i take seven excruating dance classes a week and i am five three and onefifteen pounds
i cant figure out how to lose weight
i eat very healthaly all the time
help

You are active which is causing you to gain muscle which weighs a lot. Don't worry about it; you really don't need to lose weight. But if you want to shed off a few pounds, just eat foods with low carbs or whatever. If you keep on dancing and eating healthy, you'll lose weight.
