. And the most random person i've ever met. Permalink~What is it?For most of you this will be a complete waste of time, but there are some "newbies" out there that haven't a clue how links work, so I'm going to start from the begining for those who are just starting out.
The internet is made up of billions of different pages. For each new page you visit and for every picture you view while surfing, there is a specific internet (or web) address that coincides with that particular picture or page. For instance; while you are viewing this page take a look at the top of your browser (That's the grey area at the very top part of the page). See the Address bar? Inside that bar is a very long internet address. That address is the address on the net where you will find this blog...and only this blog. Because each and every page has it's own unique address you will never visit another page on the internet with that exact address. This is also known on spaces as the "Permalink."
If you add a link or "Permalink" inside one of your blogs, readers will automatically be directed to the address you want them to view, when they click on the link.
Aight, with all that said we can get into what a "Permalink" really is and how to use it. Everytime you create and publish a blog entry there is a "Permalink" address (or web address) associated with that particular blog. To view one of these "Permalinks" simply visit someones space or "priview" your own and scroll down to where you would normally click to leave a comment. Now, look a little left of there...see it? The word "Permalink" is right there.
When you click on "Permalink" you will "Open" it. It will show you the unique address associated with this particular blog.
Now, you may be wondering why in the world you would want to know this. Well, it's a very handy way to direct people around your Space or the internet itself. Let's say for instance you wrote a funny blog back in January and want to refer people to it in September, simply hunt down your blog through the archives and copy the "Permalink" into your new blog entry. Also, to Add a Guestbook To Your Space you will need to know what a Permalink is and how to use it.

XellenX HTML~ What is it?HTML is a "computer language" devised to allow website creation. These websites can then be viewed by anyone else connected to the Internet. It is relatively easy to learn, with the basics being accessible to most people in one sitting; and quite powerful in what it allows you to create.
Baisically, it is a written language the computer understands which is easy for us to learn. It is constantly undergoing revision and evolution to meet the demands and requirements of the growing Internet audience under the direction of the » W3C, the organisation charged with designing and maintaining the language.
The definition of HTML is HyperText Markup Language.
How Does It Work? HTML consists of a series of short codes typed into a text-file by the site author — these are the tags. The text is then saved as a html file, and viewed through a browser, like Internet Explorer, Firefox or Netscape Navigator. This browser reads the file and translates the text into a visible form, hopefully rendering the page as the author had intended. Writing your own HTML entails using tags correctly to create your vision. You can use anything from a rudimentary text-editor to a powerful graphical editor to create HTML pages.
Tags - What Are They Up To? The tags are what separate normal text from HTML code. You might know them as the words between the
In the example above, the
Why Do I Need To Know This? Well, to add any of the neat little "extras" on spaces, such as: music, and pictures, you need to know a the very basics. MSN has graciously provided us with an HTML Editor so we no longer need the "Edit It!" feature we used to use to do these things. This is the button you have to press to add any of the "Tags" or "Codes" when adding Music or Pictures to your blog entries.
XellenX© 10/7/2005 Adding a Custom HTML BoxWondering how i got the banner on my space without there being a module?
Custom HTML Module PowerToy !
This is a new way of customizing your space which has been created by MSN Spaces Inc. It allows you to create a Sandbox which you can place in pictures, clocks, banners, counters etc. The possibilities are endless.
First, to add the Custom HTML Box to your space, simply follow these easy steps:
Click [here] to see what the sandbox looks like
An explanation of the picture: 1= The box where you will type the HTML code 2= If you choose to uncheck the Border box then the module name will not appear. 3= If you tick this then the picture (or whatever you choose to put in the box) will appear inside a module (like the blog list etc.) If you don't tick it then it will just apear to float. 4= Is the "Revert" button. If you do not like the HTML code in your box or the settings you have choosen; or if you just want to go back to the last thing you had posted, simply click this button and everything will go back to the last saved settings. 5= This button, obviously, saves any changes you have done
You now have the Custom HTML box on your space...great. Now what do you do with it?
Firstly, anything you add in this box must be in HTML format. To read-up on a not-so-complicated difinition on what HTML is click [here]
If it is a picture you would like to use than you will need to upload the file (picture) to the internet somwhere. This just means the picture needs to appear on the internet somewhere. Don't worry it's not as complicated as it seems. You can also 'steal' a picture from a website already on the internet if you would like. Just right click on any image you find on the internet and choose "Properties." Copy the file address (Always starts with http://) by highliting the name of the file and hitting Ctrl+C on your keyboard at the same time. This method will make things way less complicated for you and less time consuming. Just keep in mind that most images you come across on the internet are copyright and the property of the website you are visiting. If you cannot find a file on the internet you would like to use or you already have one in mind on your computer, you have to upload it to a 'host site'. I suggest using any of the following:

8/4/2005 The Original PoemTim Burton based 'The Nightmare before Christmas' on this poem
It was late one fall in Halloweenland, and the air had quite a chill. Against the moon a skeleton sat, alone upon a hill. He was tall and thin with a bat bow tie; Jack Skellington was his name. He was tired and bored in Halloweenland "I’m sick of the scaring, the terror, the fright. I’m tired of being something that goes bump in the night. I’m bored with leering my horrible glances, And my feet hurt from dancing those skeleton dances. I don’t like graveyards, and I need something new. There must be more to life than just yelling, ‘Boo!’" Then out from a grave, with a curl and a twist, Came a whimpering, whining, spectral mist. It was a little ghost dog, with a faint little bark, And a jack-o’-lantern nose that glowed in the dark. It was Jack’s dog, Zero, the best friend he had, But Jack hardly noticed, which made Zero sad. All that night and through the next day, Jack wandered and walked. He was filled with dismay. Then deep in the forest, just before night, Jack came upon an amazing sight. Not twenty feet from the spot where he stood Were three massive doorways carved in wood. He stood before them, completely in awe, His gaze transfixed by one special door. Entranced and excited, with a slight sense of worry, Jack opened the door to a white, windy flurry. Jack didn’t know it, but he’d fallen down In the middle of a place called Christmas Town! Immersed in the light, Jack was no longer haunted. He had finally found the feeling he wanted. And so that his friends wouldn’t think him a liar, He took the present filled stockings that hung by the fire. He took candy and toys that were stacked on the shelves And a picture of Santa with all of his elves. He took lights and ornaments and the star from the tree, And from the Christmas Town sign, he took the big letter C. He picked up everything that sparkled or glowed. He even picked up a handful of snow. He grabbed it all, and without being seen, He took it all back to Halloween. Back in Halloween a group of Jack’s peers Stared in amazement at his Christmas souvenires. For this wondrous vision none were prepared. Most were excited, though a few were quite scared! For the next few days, while it lightninged and thundered, Jack sat alone and obsessively wondered. " Why is it they get to spread laughter and cheer While we stalk the graveyards, spreading panic and fear? Well, I could be Santa, and I could spread cheer! Why does he get to do it year after year?" Outraged by injustice, Jack thought and he thought. Then he got an idea. "Yes. . .yes. . .why not!" In Christmas Town, Santa was making some toys When through the din he heard a soft noise. He answered the door, and to his surprise, He saw weird little creatures in strange disguise. They were altogether ugly and rather petite. As they opened their sacks, they yelled, "Trick or treat!" Then a confused Santa was shoved into a sack And taken to Halloween to see mastermind Jack. In Halloween everyone gathered once more, For they’d never seen a Santa before And as they cautiously gazed at this strange old man, J ack related to Santa his masterful plan: "My dear Mr. Claus, I think it’s a crime That you’ve got to be Santa all of the time! But now I will give presents, and I will spread cheer. We’re changing places I’m Santa this year. It is I who will say Merry Christmas to you! So you may lie in my coffin, creak doors, and yell, ‘Boo!’ And please, Mr. Claus, don’t think ill of my plan. For I’ll do the best Santa job that I can." And though Jack and his friends thought they’d do a good job, Their idea of Christmas was still quite macabre. They were packed up and ready on Christmas Eve day When Jack hitched his reindeer to his sleek coffin sleigh, But on Christmas Eve as they were about to begin, A Halloween fog slowly rolled in. Jack said, "We can’t leave; this fog’s just too thick. There will be no Christmas, and I can’t be St. Nick." Then a small glowing light pierced through the fog. What could it be?. . .It was Zero, Jack’s dog! Jack said, "Zero, with your nose so bright, Won’t you guide my sleigh tonight?" And to be so needed was Zero’s great dream, So he joyously flew to the head of the team. And as the skeletal sleigh started its ghostly flight, Jack cackled, "Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!" ‘Twas the nightmare before Christmas, and all though the house, Not a creature was peaceful, not even a mouse. The stockings all hung by the chimney with care, When opened that morning would cause quite a scare! The children, all nestled so snug in their beds, Would have nightmares of monsters and skeleton heads. The moon that hung over the new-fallen snow Cast an eerie pall over the city below, And Santa Claus’s laughter now sounded like groans, And the jingling bells like chattering bones. And what to their wondering eyes should appear, But a coffin sleigh with skeleton deer. And a skeletal driver so ugly and sick They knew in a moment, this can’t be St. Nick! From house to house, with a true sense of joy, Jack happily issued each present and toy. From rooftop to rooftop he jumped and he skipped, Leaving presents that seemed to be straight from a crypt! Unaware that the world was in panic and fear, Jack merrily spread his own brand of cheer. He visited the house of Susie and Dave; They got a Gumby and Pokey from the grave. Then on to the home of little Jane Neeman; She got a baby doll possessed by a demon. A monstrous train with tentacle tracks, A ghoulish puppet wielding an ax, A man eating plant disguised as a wreath, And a vampire teddy bear with very sharp teeth. There were screams of terror, but Jack didn’t hear it, He was much too involved with his own Christmas spirit! Jack finally looked down from his dark, starry frights And saw the commotion, the noise, and the light. "Why, they’re celebrating, it looks like such fun! They’re thanking me for the good job that I’ve done." But what he thought were fireworks meant as goodwill Were bullets and missiles intended to kill. Then amidst the barrage of artillery fire, Jack urged Zero to go higher and higher. And away they all flew like the storm of a thistle, Until they were hit by a well guided missile. And as they fell on the cemetery, way out of sight, Was heard, "Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night." Jack pulled himself up on a large stone cross, And from there he reviewed his incredible loss. "I thought I could be Santa, I had such belief" Jack was confused and filled with great grief. Not knowing where to turn, he looked toward the sky, Then he slumped on the grave and he started to cry. And as Zero and Jack lay crumpled on the ground, They suddenly heard a familiar sound. "My dear Jack," said Santa, "I applaud your intent. I know wreaking such havoc was not what you meant. And so you are sad and feeling quite blue, But taking over Christmas was the wrong thing to do. I hope you realize Halloween’s the right place for you. There’s a lot more, Jack, that I’d like to say, But now I must hurry, for it’s almost Christmas day." Then he jumped in his sleigh, and with a wink of an eye, He said, "Merry Christmas," and he bid them good bye. Back home, Jack was sad, but then, like a dream, Santa brought Christmas to the land of Halloween.
