These Background Images are free for use on Deviantart Only!

->Please do not use these for anything beyond Custom Box Backgrounds
->Feel free to edit/recolour!
->Please link back to me if you use these
----------------------------------------------------------

Custom Box content with these backgrounds will look best if contained within an extra 'box'.

See my main page for examples.

See =somrat's gallery for code to create these extra boxes around your content.


----------------------------------------------------------
To use these BGs please follow the instructions below!:
1. Download the Zip folder containing all of the BG images. (Download link on top right of page)

2. Find the downloaded zip folder and unzip it.

3. Upload your chosen BG image to your Deviantart SCRAPS, along with a link back to me in the upload's description. (Failure to do this will be claiming the image as your own which you do not have permission to do!)

4. Copy the code below and paste it into your custom box.

<div class="popup2-moremenu"><div class="floaty-boat">
<img src="IMAGE URL GOES HERE"/><**/div><**/div><div class="gr-box gr-genericbox">
YOUR CONTENT GOES HERE<**/div>
(remember to remove the *s from the above code or it will not work)

5. Fullview the BG image uploaded to your scraps and right click on it. Choose "copy Image url", "Copy Image location", or something to that effect. (It may be slightly different depending on your browser).

6.Go back to your custom box code and paste your copied url where it says "IMAGE URL GOES HERE"

7. Type your custom box content where it says "CONTENT GOES HERE".

8.Save your custom box!

What do you mean by images? Do you mean the BG goes in front of -any- content you add to your custom box (images,thumbnails, text, etc) ?

You've probably made a mistake in your code somewhere but I'd need to see your code to know how to fix it :)

This is what my Custom Box Code looks like ->

<**div class="popup2-moremenu"><**div class="floaty-boat"><**br><**img src="[link]"/></div**></div**><**div class="gr-box gr-genericbox"><**br>

CONTENT TYPED HERE

</div**>

minus all of the **s

Try it with the code I'm using and see if it works for you? Remembering to replace my image link with your own in the code and to remove the **s

You need to use the code like I'm using above then. The code you've just shown me is only used to display a picture. It isn't used to display a -background- image behind everything else :). There are several tutorials on how to do a custom box BG code if you use the DA seach

It looks awesome in pink! :D

Could I ask how you went about putting a box with a BG inside the custom box? o_o

I mean...the box with the donut BG inside the main custom box with the skulls xD. I didn't know you could cascade boxes with BGs like that.

Thanks! I'm so glad you were generous enough to offer your awesome work as free to use!

After putting in the content box code, just use the same code to put a background in as you did to put a background for the entire custom box.
