background-size:100% ?

but if the pics is too small, you'll see the pixels. Try to chose a large image.

@anamafalda: An image is a file like any other on the Internet, so you're basically asking the question "What can cause a download to fail?"

It is most likely a combination of a large image, slow internet connections, and people torrenting (or otherwise downloading) on those connections while loading your list. If it takes longer than a couple minutes they should just refresh.

I believe photobucket will also limit the number of times you can load an image in a certain period, and could be periodically preventing the image from loading.

Hi . . . I wanted to make an anime/manga list as i recently began learning CSS last week at school but am encountering some problems. Its not technical problems but rather design color wise if that made any sense.

So I copy and pasted some templates and parts of other lists that i saw.

http://myanimelist.net/animelist/Xenoi
For my anime list i am sticking with the background. I added some transparent list but i can't get the headers to be transparent. Do i must do background: rgba but when i do that and i tried making the transparency for the headers to be a bit darker but it doesn't work(headers go transparent but not darker)

I also feel the color scheme is terrible also and would love to have anyone help decide the colors.

http://myanimelist.net/mangalist/Xenoi

For my manga list it was a simply a copy and paste of the anime list but with the list on the other side of the screen.
I don't know what background i should have.

Backgrounds:
http://imgur.com/E00gu,vmbCP,yX23v,LU33X,EMbtJ,K5nxj,h0JbV,bs1ya

I tried them some of them but encounters some problems.

Which one should I use? What should the color scheme before the text, transparency, and border.

And some of the images are too small and had to be stretched but looks wrong like that, how would it be possible to increase the size of the image without affecting the aspect ratio?

And the top bar menu thing at the top right, how do i change the color scheme for it? Is it possible? Or do i need to replace the icons with pictures?

@Xenoi:

Of the backgrounds, I personally like #1 and #7 the best. xD
Those have the best... arrangement, color scheme, and atmosphere.
Both of those have enough "similar colors" and not too much going on so that colors do not clash nor is the background distracting.

From there you can choose both dark and light colors for your color scheme. I highly recommend the colors to be chosen from the background so that it fits well. And definitely not that red (which is usually hard to read)... especially in combination with that blue (which clashes colors with the red and just looks gross). Be careful to pick colors that are easy to read.

Also, don't stretch images if you don't have to. Change your design so the image purposely doesn't cover the background... edit the image so the background is extended... or something. Like you said, it looks bad to stretch the images.

The top right menu bar... is possible to change colors if you replace the icons with new icons (pictures). But grey and white is about as color-neutral as you can get (should fit with most color schemes), so I am not sure if changing it will look better.

I also do not recommend full transparency for your list, if you are planning to have a picture as background. It makes it hard to read.

I am not sure what you are talking about with the header transparency.
For now, try setting the .header_title and the .table_header to have {background-color: none;}.

Thanks for the reply.
I will work on the color scheme based on your advice when i have some time .

The problem i have with the top right bar is that under menu there is a red border, and i can't figure out how to remove that.

My transparency is at .15 for background:rgba(255.255.255,.15) since im trying to find a rgb color that looks fine and when i do after getting the color scheme the list won't be fully transparent.

On your css file, you have :
@import "http://dl.dropbox.com/u/49469857/MAL/premade/anime.css";

It has the anime cover. But you don't have any file for the manga cover. For you manga list design, you just replace that line with another css file what has the manga cover image.

Open advance css editor and find #list_surround id.

It should be something like:

#list_surround {
left: 0 !important;
margin: auto !important;
position: absolute !important;
right: 0 !important;
}

Replace margin line with this:

margin: 0 0 0 40px !important;

You can change margin value "40px" with "50px" or any other value to set margin from the left side.

Add this to the bottom to realign list table to the left, you can add to the 1px for more spacing.

#list_surround {
left: 1px !important;
position: absolute !important;
}


Editing the category links is complicated, I have a full topic on it for advanced users:
http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=416069

But its easier to just say what you want to do with the links (recolor, add pics, move, etc) and I can see if I can write a code for it.

To get the title you add this to the bottom of your current CSS on your list:

#list_surround {
background: url("http://i40.tinypic.com/2q19tzm.png") no-repeat scroll 50% 1px transparent;
font-size: 81.25%;
line-height: 1;
margin: 0 auto;
padding-bottom: 10px;
padding-top: 120px;
width: 800px;
}


but you didn't get the transparent PNG when you downloaded the generated title from Cooltext so you need to do make another one and download it as a PNG and upload it as a PNG. Otherwise it will have that white background.

The ones that actually link you to each one at the top of the page. Make them any design that you think would match the BG if you could,

here's my code ATM



Haha I know that the actual headers don't match yet but I'm working on it! If they look alright then by the time you read this I updated it.

I think you've solved the problem because I don't see anything wrong or it is your browser issue?

Anyway for CSS you should use z-index to put orders of drawing.

It looks like in order to change the wallpaper, you're going to have to work on this part:

body {
background-attachment: fixed !important;
background-image: url("http://i.imgur.com/vOPYFQT.png"), url("http://i.imgur.com/oHVCieh.jpg");
background-position: center bottom, center center;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: 750px 500px, cover;
background-color: black;
}

Change the link in red to a link to an image of Shingeki no Kyojin characters, and the link in green to a link to an image of whatever you'd like the background to be. This would be placed behind the characters.

As for the right hand side, you'd be working with these parts:



For example, to change the "On-Hold" image, you would change the background-image in this section to your new image.

.header_onhold {
background-color: transparent;
background-image: url("http://i.imgur.com/VaYL8hy.png");
background-repeat: no-repeat;
height: 30px;

Note that the new images you add should match the dimensions of the current images, or else you would need to change some other things as well. I could help you there if that's the case. :)

It's no problem at all. If you'd like any list help in the future, feel free to contact me via PM or profile comments, or post in this topic. And if you'd like any feedback on any of your future list designs, start a thread in the Creative Corner. The link Damaein posted is pretty handy as well.
