Hello! I hope I am posting this in the correct area. I have been on MDL for a year now and rarely have I engaged with the community outside of drama pages. However, I have had this question on my mind for a while now and have not been able to find answers via Google.

But how are people designing their profiles to make it do fancy?

Initially I thought maybe it was HTML or CSS (the latter of which I know how to do) because I have seen color boxes and the like. But I have tried coding here and it has done nothing. So now I am wondering if I am overcomplicating it and members are simply using what the Biography box in settings provides.

If anyone could help me with this, I would appreciate it! If you can't tell I am extra and like to share my aesthetic too.

i did mine by making some graphics (titles, dividers, etc) in photopea but otherwise the rest of my profile is just done with the regular settings available. i used the table function a LOT. i think that's how most people get colorful backgrounds, text boxes, etc. it's just using the table feature. my whole profile is basically just one big table with other tables inside of it to place things how i want. if that makes sense lol

i don't really know how to code but the few things i tried to add with html didn't work anyways.

(also your profile looks really pretty!! i really like the divider at the top)

You can use tables, layered on top of each other to make different sections, and you can choose different colors than the options provided by looking for ones on free color palette websites. Other than that, it's usually just adding links, gifs, and other graphics.

Hey Mars,

I did by finding out in a video someone shared !

Here's the link: https://www.loom.com/share/4ee263676c7e44408baf5e3d7ae7ece8

Note - This video link contains an old video since now there're lot of new updates, but hope this helps :))

Thanks for all your comments and advice!

Hi, you can also look up on the Creativity section of the forum and check out Rien's banners and badges and there's so many to choose from. Some users will add certain badges for different drama challenges. Lots to choose from. Like others have mentioned just using the existing profile editor on MDL should be enough and definitely make use of tables etc.

The tables tool is a bit tricky atm since the update, but it's one of the main tools that help with structure and placement of your images.

if ur having trouble adding images or gifs, this site will generate a "direct" link that u copy and pop into the image prompt in a table box.
