Q: How do I get rid of my contact table?
& how do I get the little buttons that you put in your "About Me" section that are for "add" and "message"?

kthx.

I have a comment button, an add button, and a message button. I can give you all the codes to put under your about me.

just email me at sherrygeorges07@yahoo.com

I'll also get you the code to erase the contact table.

Q: ok i lied to my teacher! we were supposed to give in a homework, and i was like "my printer cashed so i sent it to your email!" and she was like "stephany, i checked my email this morning there was nothing from you!" so i panicked and said "ehh.. well i sent it to you just right now, during lunch, from the library!" (i knoww, wrong! but i got scared!) and then during the lesson she was like "everyone who forgot the homework will have to send it to me through email at by the latest tonight..otherwise it will be marked late!" now its been two days since that.. so obviously im not gonna get a full grade for it, because it was late.. but i still need an excuse to avoid being embarressed when she tells me "howcome it wasn't in my inbox when you prmoised me you had sent it?" (she'll probably ask infront of the whole class, that will be so embarrising!) so what do i say? do i just lie? say "but i sent it to you!" ?

heelp me please!

Just be like "Well maybe it just didnt send the email". Because a lot of times, emails dont send for whatever reasons. I know thats lying again, but you still want SOME credit for the assignment you know? If you tell her..she might just give you a zero.

But next time just tell the truth, because if not..you'll have to keep lying to cover up.

Hopefully this helps.

Q: i wanted to make one of those myspaces where they have those contest i understand how to make it and stuff but how do i get all those friends, like all the other ones have? Anything is apreciated

You just ask your own friends to join, and have their friends join too. It's really a matter of advertising through bulletins, myspace groups, myspace forums etc. Have your friends post bulletins about it. It might take a while to get a good amount of people....but thats how you start.

And maybe go to those contest sites, and add the people on there =)

You can add me too.

Good luck!

Q: im 14 and about 5`3-5`4 and 110 pounds and my waist is like 31 inches so I'm wondering would I fit into a size 2 mini skirt at abercrombie and fitch? or what size fits me because I'm buying the skirt on ebay and i dont know what size i am.

Since Abercrombie does run a little big, I would try a 1 or 0.

Abercrombies size chart:

If you end up getting a skirt that doesnt fit, you could always re-sell it on ebay.

Q: Where is a good place to get really colorful eyeshadow

MAC of course. It's pretty expensive, but its just because the color/quality is so great!

www.maccosmetics.com

If you want something cheap, but still colorful.
Try MAXFactor which is available at Target in the makeup section! =)

Q: I get really REALLY bad cramps on the first day of my period. It's just so bad sometimes I don't know how I don't faint from pain. I've thrown up a couple of times when it's been really bad. I was wondering whether taking the Pill would stop these cramps? Or stop them happening so badly...Anyone with experience??? Thanks.

This happens to me too, the first day. It sucks. I started yesterday and probably said 492365525 cuss words.

Taking the birth control pill actually stops your period because your body is thinking its pregnant.

If medicine like Midol and Advil wont do the trick, definatley talk to your mom about the pain and ask if you can go to the doctor. He'll get you a pill thats safe. Or you can discuss alternatives to the pill. Maybe prescribed medicine or something.

Good luck :]

Q: Hello, I noticed that you had a payed account, and I just had a few questions to ask you about it. Is it safe to do the whole billing thing online to the website people? If i change my advice column name, when my payed account is over, will my username still be the one I changed it to? Can I put music videos and stuff on my payed account? Thanks!

Yes, PayPal is definatley safe. Paypal is used by Ebay users to pay for their stuff. So it has to be safe.

If you change your username, it will still stay the same after your year is over.

Music videos, and songs are not recommended to be on your column. Regardless if you have a paid account or not.

But, the thing I love most about the paid account is I dont see ads anywhere on the site! And the gold star is pretty cool too.

Hopefully I helped.

Q: How often do mail-in-rebates go according to plan?

If I purchase a Motorola Razr cellular phone from TMobile's website, can I trust the likelihood of the rebate? Or would you advise against it?

I would advise against it. Mail in rebates are difficult and are just made for you to buy the product. The company is hoping when you buy the product, you wont have time to mail it in or fill out the nessesary forms to get your money back. Their hoping you'll just forget about it.

However if you do mail it in... they make up some lame excuse as to why it was not accepted and they ask you to try and try again. By the third time, your probably going to give up.

So the result is, the company gets to keep your money.

If you want that Motorola Razr that bad, try ebay or see if you can buy a used one from a friend.

or you can save up the money to where you dont even need the rebate.

Q: i'm skiiny but not annerexcic...i promise...i eat alot and i never get full and i can't help it...i can eat a meal be full for 10 seconds then get hunry again..well..not hungry but not full...i don't know why..and while eating i don't gain much weight eitheer...i want gqain arm waeight...if you look at me i'm good skinny..like healthy skinny...but my arms are long and look annerexic...

i'm 14/f and i'm 100 lbs...

do people think i'm anneraxic??...how do you gain arm weight??

Your metabolism must be really high. But as long as you eat I'm pretty sure nobody thinks your anorexic.

You shouldent change for people. People think someone is either too skinny or too fat...so nobody is ever satisfied.

So dont worry about gaining arm weight or what people think about you =)

Q: i'm 14 years oldand i'm a freshmen and i had never had a kiss before...is this embarrasing???

No not at all. I'm 16 and a SENIOR and havent been kissed. You just have to wait for the right person, it'll happen. Just be patient && flirt a lot ;-) Oh and dont waste your first kiss on just anyone!

Q: Hi. I'm another advice columnist, even though I havent been on in like over a year lol. Anyway, I was wondering where you got your background?
Please and Thanks!

I did it myself, if you have the column editing feature(Under Column Settings)...you can mess around with the HTML a little and get it like that.

If you cant edit columns, the only way you can is to get the paid account.

Q: i made a group and add the background and everythin but how do i put like the top 8 on the group profile like a regular myspace profile help!!!

you cant make a top 8 on a group profile.
only on regular myspace profiles.

Q: Our Spanish Club is holding a bake sale and car wash together. I am organizing the bake sale and have to contact other club members and get each of them to provide a dish to help out with the sale. I need some ideas of what types of desserts I can ask different members to make. I want to keep it fairly simple -- cakes, cookies, pies, etc. I just need to compile a list of desserts. Any ideas are appreciated!

Thanks

Vanilla cake
Chocolate cake
Velvet cake
Fruit cake
Carrot cake
Lemon cake
Pound cake
Cheesecake (Chocolate, vanilla, swirl, peanut butter, etc.)

Chocolate chip cookies
Macadamia cookies
Pecan cookies
Peanut butter cookies
Sugar cookies
Snickerdoodle cookies
Oatmeal cookies

Apple pie
Blueberry pie

Rice Krispy's
Muffins (Chocolate, banana, blueberry)
Jello
Pudding
Strawberrys dipped in chocolate

Tell your club members to google recipies if they are making it themselves. Hopefully this helps.

Q: Young Grandma has already been on the featured cloumnist before like a few weeks ago. How is she able to be on there more than once? Not saying I don't like her advice, I"m just wondering.

Featured columnists are randomly selected and can't be featured for the past 30 days...so maybe she just hit the 30 day mark and got lucky.

You can read more about featured columnists here:

Q: i deleted [on accident] the icon on my computer for paint and i can't figure out how to get a new one? does anyone know how?

Go to your start menu (like your going to paint the long way) and when your on paint...dont click it, right click it and scroll down to "Create Shortcut". Thats it =)

Hopefully this helps.

Q: My girl friend, Trish, is so beautiful and I love her so much.
The problem is people say that she is ugly, & I don't think that at all.
I was just wondering if I could get all of your honest opinions. Do ya'll think she is ugly?

http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c54/TriciaxxxAnn/newhair.jpg

I'll rate 5s for all answers.

Different people have different opinions.
Someone might think a person is beautiful, while another person might think they are not attractive whatsoever.

So it depends on the people, but I think that this girl is very pretty.

Hopefully this helps?
