Welcome to Gaia! ::

hey. ummm, we are allowed to write about other things right? well i have a problem. i am trying to make a nice profile that looks very cool and awesome, but those codes are confusing me a lot. i went to about 4 different guides so people that just tell me to go there n see please dont do that. i have spent over 14 hours trying to figure those things out and nothing happened. none of my friends help me...either they dont want to or they dont know how. and if anyone can explain it to me and sho me what to do, i will really appreciate it. i am sorry for bad grammar, but i am not thinking about sentence structure at the moment. also please dont tell me to go to golayouts.net or tektek.org because i tried those too and they didnt help. so please if u can help me and are willing to, please mail me or comment my ugly profile. or how about i just write what code i have been trying to figure out how to use. well, i want to have transparent boxes, a different background for all my boxes, dashed boarder, a background for my avatar box, and how to write a header. if anyone knows these codes, please please please tell me and explain how they work. i will great appricate your help!
