HOW TO CHANGE SKIN OF OPR’S BLOG

,

Near day I receive some emails (26 mails exactly!) asked how to change skin of OPERA’s Blog. First of alls, thank all friends who feel my skin so nice, so then I post this topic for them and for any one who want to change theirs.
In this topic I show you the fast to change your blog skin (theme). In others I will try to post the particular one to show you how to design a perfect skin of OPR.
PREPARES:
Step1: Which one skin would you want to get (your friends, search in Internet, ect.).
Step2: Type this line on your address web browser : http://files.myopera.com/Account_Name/user.css. ). In here, for example, I will take my skin for illustration so that line to be: http://files.myopera.com/LEFA./user.css. Wait for secs you will see a file opening on the screen.
Step3: Copy and Paste this file into another file, for illustration we set this file name is PP.txt (of coz pls SAVE it for sure, really you need not to save to another file, you can take only the pointer in the opened CSS file then CTRL+A then Copy it, but in the below I will show you why do we need to save it!!!).
START:
Step4: Now take a look on the screen, starting, click on ACCOUNT
then choose
and
you will see a scroll box as
. Copy and Paste above prepared file (PP.txt) into the scroll box and choose as
.
Step5:Finally click SAVE and Press F5 to see your accomplishment after working… so hard (:D).
WOW, as you see the above tip is very poor and too easy, of coz the whole lot files (graphic files) are not yours, there are stored in another account yet, thence you must want to save them to your account. That why I told you above that you need save the CSS file to another (here is PP.txt!!!). Open PP.txt then find in this file all keyword “URL” (As MS WORD you can find any word by Click Edit/Find), all files you need are stored in these address. Certainly, choose all lines with fre-word URL(http://files.myopera.com/Account_Name/..... In here I set these URL lines are PRE-URLs ) then download these to your PC. Remember the place of these files (Important!!!! For example we set this place to Folder name is PPFR ).
Next upload these files by click Account (Step4), choose Files
you will see as below
.
Choose Upload Tab, then click Browse and step by step upload all files which are stored in PPFR. After that replace PRE-URLs in PP.txt by http://files.myopera.com/YOURACCOUNT_NAME/ (surely that is your ACCOUNT NAME!!! Important!!!).
Save PP.txt again then Copy and Paste it into your scroll box (Step4,5).
Now look in your screen and take a rest after working very very… hard and drinking in what you have made yet. Good luck and I hope this topic will make you easy to do as you think.
P/S: you can download my share skins on SKIN TO SHARE at the bottom sidebar.

Your own personal theme, LEFA, is just great! I would like to be able to create a theme like this!

LEFA. 11. October 2007, 08:25

Welcome Night!
Thank you so much.

Since you are so experienced with my.opera can I ask you a little help? I don't know how to modify the hight and the width of the images I post. Any idea?

LEFA. 13. October 2007, 04:45

Well Night,
many free-softwares could modify images, you can download one of them but now i show you how to do by ACDSee, if you dont have pls CLICK HERE. Fix it on your system (set-up), then open your image, see up on the menu bar then choose Tool/Photos Enhance (CTRL+E). After that one new window will be opened (ACDSee Photo Enhancer). Choose Edit/ Resize (Shift+S) then set the width and height that you wanna resize on.

Good luck

Thanks man but I have a problem. The link doesn't work.....Can u post that freeware on rapidshare?

LEFA. 14. October 2007, 13:33

Okay Night,the link was bad coz i type wrong URL, sorry and pls CLICK HERE for download it.
Good luck,

Night on the web 16. October 2007, 19:44

Ok this link is good :up:. I saw all the versions of the program you said. But I just realized a thing: I use windows Vista so I have paint and I think paint is able to do the same stuff (resize images), isn't it?

LEFA. 27. October 2007, 06:46

Good luck

Thank you for your gracious welcome. A question if you don't mind. I've downloaded the blue skin theme and unrar'd it and ended up with 3 different css files and several graphic ones. How do I put all that together. Thank you for providing the tutorial.

first of all,thank you very much LEFA. But:
+ i do not see anywhere the Custom Style Sheet is, how could i do LEFA?
+ The fixed top banner with your name so how could i (and others) change it to mine?
Hope to see you online soon.

LEFA. 24. November 2007, 07:40

Hi friends,

=> if u dont see where the Custom Style Sheet stand, you can refresh the browser with address: http://my.opera.com/YOUR_ACCOUNT_NAME/account/usercss.dml

=> Download the BlueTheme(LeftSideBar) HERE you can get the banner that is designed for all of you.
Good luck

Hi there,

I used your skin and found out that you didn't set up tab forum which is not available on your site. would you pls tell me how to do it?

look at this site http://my.opera.com/hoc-bong-sv/blog/
If I open it using opera brower, then it seems ok with minor errors
- the title should be black but it turns to yellow. How do i change it back?

-the avatar box appears in every blog. how do I make it disappear?
If I open it using IE brower, it looks weird. doesn't like your site.
