@VeriTi..."THANK YOU!" Wow, that was a quick responce. (^-^).

I reeeeeeeally needed to know if using an obsolete browser could be causing most of my problems since the code you posted for me wasn't working at all...and I know I was entering it correctly. Like I said, wanted to get simple little, stupid mistakes out of the way first, a.k.a. web browser too old.

Now, I have to decide which version to go with. *sighs*

You should upgrade it if you can. Seems like almost all of the popular add ons get carried over to later versions of Firefox, so don't worry about that, its like a 1 in a 100 chance your add ons all didn't carry over or theres something to replace it. To be safe what I'd do is search your add-ons and read if they are available in FF10. They usually have info like that.

But if your computer is real slow in some way, I don't think you should upgrade to a new Firefox. Until about a month ago I had a notebook that was 6 years old and even with a fresh copy of Windows running Firefox was laggy and froze sometimes. It didn't freeze tho when using the latest Chrome. So if your coms like that, you might want to get the latest Chrome instead of upgrading Firefox- you'll be able to enjoy the latest CSS upgrades + Chrome is fast even on slow computers.

@Shishio-kun...Sorry for all the newbie questions a.k.a. which web browser I need. Eventually I'll get to more CSS/customizing questions...I hope. (^_~) *winky*

Was debating whether or not to go with Chrome, since it's apparently the hottest browser right now. My Vaio is 3 yrs old and running Windows 7. Only, it's just a pain sometimes to get acquainted with a updated or new browser, you know, when you're already used to something else. But if I wanna customize MAL, etc., I should probably go with the best available. Thanks for helping the newbie. Here we go...

If your going to be doing alot of CSS take a look at the Firebig plugin for FF, it might help you decide.

@missmotoko

In my opinion, Chrome will suck for any Opera or FF user, if he knows how to use most of his favourite browser's features like FF addons or Opera UserJS and mail client

So, forget about Chrome for now, being "hottest" doesn't mean being awesome for you (and actually Chrome doesn't support some things like background on tr)

And I think that FF has actually became better than it was, and there is no much difference in functional for design between Firebug and tools in other popular browsers

@VeriTi...

Chrome is a NO-GO. I downloaded and played around with it yesterday. (>_<)* Grrrrr! It was actually loading pages slower...way slower, go figure. It's not a connection problem since my ISP is my cable company so it's quite fast. And it didn't solve MAL background sizing issue. It's of no use to me after all. So yes, it does indeed "suck", hehehe.

The settings were just too frustratingly different (having to add basic, functional tools i.e. my "home button", wtf?!) Too much work.
I love my FF! So running FF4 for now until I get the nerve to udate to FF9 or 10.

If you run Windows 7 you should be able to run the latest Firefox problem free. I've seen your list in the latest version of Chrome and it actually fixes the issue, plus Chrome is the fastest browser, so something else is wrong not the browser. Maybe your computer is not compatible with it for some reason. But since you don't like Chrome's layout and if you're not going to update- just use Microsoft Paint or another program to resize your image for your computer screen size. Some websites may resize the background too.

BTW I've already told that it can be fixed for 3.6 with -moz-background-size added like this:
body{background-size:cover;-moz-background-size:cover}
I've tested it and it does work (3.6 portable).

@ VeriTi & Shishio-kun...

Problem solved...kinda. After adding body{background-size:cover;-moz-background-size:cover} the pics that appeared too small in MAL, NOW, fits the whole background. At first, I didn't understand that you meant for me to add -moz-background-size to the code. Remember..newbie. o(^-^#)o

Plus, I think MAL.net may have a slow reaction time when changing/updating/loading certain settings. Or maybe not? Just a thought.

The only prob is that it's not a perfect fit. Now, it's only the "too big" issue. However, I suppose that can't be helped. I'll just have to manually resize it like Shi-kun suggested. (and Shi-kun, you're right, it does work in Chrome, but still a no-go...stubborn) (^_~) *winky!*

To both of you, THANKS, for your help and patience.

@ missmotoko
cover option scales the image to the smallest size such that both its width and its height can fit inside the content area.

It works with my 1590x1192px background in 3.6 (screen)
If you want, you can adjust the point that image will be resized around by using percentages or left/center/right & top/bottom in background-position property

And still, consider upgrading FF: web is not static

@ ElenFNX

List width is the width of #list_surround. So all you have to do is to put width: 1200px; to the block where you have your #list_surround{} set up, or simply put this:
#list_surround{width: 1200px;}
at the bottom of your style (change 1200px with your desired width)

There is no ideal background size. I'd add
background-size: cover;
to where it is set so it would stretch or shrink automatically if it is too small or too big for one who is viewing your list

You can use
body
{background-size: cover;}

as he said to make the background cover every screen sizes now so finding an ideal background size isn't as important as it used to be, unless the person viewing has a really old out of date browser.

But if you weren't gonna use that code, what I used to do is find an image thats about 1920px across like yours and I'd set it so the character face peeked out on 1000px computer screens (genuinely thats the smallest computer screen size) and the whole image showed on wide screens. That way on the small coms they'd see at least a face, and as the computer screen got larger they'd see more and more.

I did something like that for this layout, notice the 1000px screenshot- http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=217651

this is the pic I used for it- http://img139.imageshack.us/img139/7053/center2000bg1.jpg

Add this to your CSS box after everything else:

#list_surround {
position: absolute;
right: 0;
}



Scroll down in your code and find

.header_title {
height: 30px;
padding: 2px;
}


Lower the px height

You can replace your whole CSS code with this to get the blossoms on the sides and the pic in the middle.



btw in the future if your body background is too small, you can add just add this code to the bottom of any CSS edit box to blow up the background image to full size for your screen (won't work if you're on real old browser though). It won't work on the code above tho since I switched the body background with another background code to create that look you mentioned, but you can use it on other layout codes including the one you have right now.

body {
background-size: cover;
}


You don't use BBcode on the lists, you use CSS. BBcode customizes the profiles, forums, posts here, comments, etc. CSS customizes the list's (or any page's) design properties like background and font color and BBcode pretties the text we post.

I am sure it is explained some where here in the club but i just visited here so im new as well.

Also i was wondering approxametly what size does the photo have to be in order to fit in the MAL list. I have had many problems before uploading photo's that were either to small or just ended up cropped at the corners.

Tutorial on repositioning list:
http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=393437

It can be any size, if you use this method to resize it to your screen resolution:
http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=419677

If you don't want to use that method for some reason (using an old browser for example), then you just need to get a wallpaper the same size as your resolution or more. In this premade layout with the bg on the left side, the wallpaper is like 2000px across so even the biggest coms see it:

In this section, change the background-color to transparent if you don't want color at all.
.category_totals:hover, .td1:hover, .td2:hover, #grand_totals:hover, #copyright:hover {
