VeriTi's scripts for CSS
I wrote a few scripts when developing my layout, which allows you to set random CSS and CSS which depends on currently
opened category. I meant to replace them with CSG running online but MAL ditched me... But that's different
story anyways. So, the scripts:

Random CSS
There was a PHP script for random CSS already, but it was tough for most people to do, requiring to set up a hosting and
get some PHP written in a correct way... Meh. I made my simpler:

Say, you want a random background. Enter this at Code prefix:

body { background-image: "

This goes as Code suffix:

" }

Finally, insert URLs into random values. Click Add line to add more options. Simple and non-repetative1

This is how I use it for current list for random quotes: My Random CSS example

Category-dependent CSS
There was a way to set different backgrounds depending on your current status, but it required you to remove
All Anime, which I found unacceptable. So I made this:

This allows you to make different CSS depending on currently selected status. It works roughly by checking what is
written in visitor's address bar as status=#, so there is a default option, which should be set to what category
opens when somebody just uses the Anime list link. You can change it anytime btw.

This is how I use it to show characters depending on current category: My Category CSS example

Common notes (read this before using any of scripts)

Category-dependent CSS works only when @imported from CSS in MAL's edit box. It won't be able to get status=#
otherwise. Random CSS works from everywhere.
You will be given link to edit your codes. Save it, or you will lose it forever. There is no restore edit link
option.
Use small codes. This is placed on shared hosting with limited bandwidth, so you want your footprint to be as small
as possible. You can use @import in both of these scripts, so take advantage of it if it makes sense. I may simply
remove codes which are too large without any notice.
