I have the correct code for changing the scrollbar color on my column but it's not working. Where do I insert the code? I put it in the "About Me" area but it isn't working. Will rate anyone high who can help me out =]

You insert the code into your Profile Settings in the big box. Your scrollbar code may be wrong or Advicenators may not accept that type of code.

Try using this code since I use it for my column and it works;

[style type="text/css"]
body {
scrollbar-3dlight-color: COLOR;
scrollbar-arrow-color: COLOR;
scrollbar-base-color: COLOR;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color: COLOR;
scrollbar-face-color: COLOR;
scrollbar-highlight-color: COLOR;
scrollbar-shadow-color: COLOR;
scrollbar-track-color: COLOR;
}
[/style]

Replace all the [ and ] with < and >.

okay, well i have a black dad and a white mom.. well i dont have white hair and i dont have black hair either.. but its frizzy. it looks REALLY pretty when its straightened, but when you dont put special stuff on it, it looks bad.. anyway, is there any special straightening stuff that you guys know of to put on my hair?

I use a few products by John Freida when my hair frizzes and they work really good. You could try using the new shampoo and conditioner from him that will help defrizz your hair. Or you can use a straightening serum that will defrizz your hair also which is 'Wind-Down'. Paul Mitchell also has a few products that could help.

Where I live, it's on every Thursday on MTV but since the MTV Movie Awards are tonight, it's on at 11 PM. Just check your show listings for 'Chaotic' and you'll find out.

the guy i like just told me he liked me... well how long should it take a guy to ask someone out if they said that?? please help me out! thanks!!

Until this guy is ready to start a relationship with you, then that's the time when he'll ask you out. No one knows when that time will be, only he knows. It could take a few days where as, it could take a few weeks.

Does anyone think it would be okay to go swimming on your period, and without wearing a tampon? My mom said I have to wai till I'm about 15, and I'm a couple of years younger. What should I do??!!! And if so, what do i do after i get out of the pool?!

That wouldn't be a good idea to go swimming while you're on your period without the use of protection, in this case a tampon. You don't have to be 15 years old in order to start using tampons. Talk to your mom and tell her that you want to swim and that you need to wear a tampon. If she doesn't want you to use one, then I would still wear one if I were you. Once you get out of the pool, just change your tampon.

i get bored sometimes cause ive answered all the qustions and no new questions come up for like an hour. Why is this?
ps.. if you give me a good answer ill rate high

If you aren't a moderator, then your question is sent to a page where Level 2 and 3 moderators moderate or approve them. It could take a matter of a minute or two if a Level 2 or 3 moderator is on this site but we have lives (I'm a Level 2 moderator) so most of us are on summer vacation, at school, or working. Check out this link for more information; http://www.advicenators.com/faq.php?f=9.

Does anyone know the song the goes i like girls who wear abercrobie and fincth something like that whats the name of the song and where are some of the place i can get it for my advice column?

This song came out a long time ago; it's 'Summer Girls' by LFO.

I could give you the code for the song but there is no point in doing that, since it won't work and play on your column. The Admin disabled the script and embed codes that are used to play music.

okay im 14 and i still havent gotten my perios is that something i should be worried about .... or just wait?

Nope, that isn't something that you should be worried about. It's normal to have not gotten your period yet. Every girl develops at different times so you just have to wait, that's all.

ok.....if your bf fingers you will u get preganent?and do u have to have your period to have someone finger you?

No, if your boyfriend fingers you, you won't get pregnant and you don't have to have your period to have someone finger you. You need to have gotten your period in order to become pregnant.

I've tried every Xanga site that has music codes for the type of music that Brand New sings and such but I had no luck. If you check out http://www.xanga.com/musicURL and http://cdzinc.com, there are only songs from their first album. Sorry.

I just got my period like over a year ago and i'm going to the beach in like 3 weeks. My period is very UNEVEN. I don't know when to expect it..my question is, what am i gonna do when i have it on the beach..is there any way i can prevent it? please help

No, there is no way to prevent your period from coming. If it decides to start during the week you're going to the beach, just pack and bring along a few tampons. You can still swim while wearing tampons.

i flirt with this girl and she flirts back i lay on the grass with her and hold her hand people think we should go out , i ask her she said duno what do i do 4 her to go out with me

You can try hanging out with her more often such as going to the mall or to the movie theaters. Just let her get to know you better and that will help.

I have really curly hair. I want to be a straightening iron around $100 since the last straightening iron I got (wet2set $30) leaves my hair looking really dried out & fried. Does anyone know of a flat iron around my price range that we'll leave my hair looking healthier than the cheap one? Thanks!

If you go to your local Sally's Beauty Supply, they have flat irons that have are a good price, since the price is reduced. I use a Helen of Troy or a ceramic straightener and it defrizzes my hair and such.
