| How to Change Your Facebook Layout
How is it that some people are just OK with the standard appearance of many if not all social networks? I mean, OK, it's not for me to judge of course, but the standard appearance of many of these sites is a bit of a turnoff. It's a bit bland and dull and, in my opinion (and I daresay in the opinion of many others too). |

Especially Facebook. Now like I said, there's nothing really wrong with it, except for the fact that it's a little too plain for my liking. The whole thing works fine, sure-especially the fact that all my friends are on Facebook and that when we all login together we have so much fun, it's just like we're all together and all that. It's a great site. But what I can't stand about it is, there's so little just about anyone can do standard with it to fix up its appearance. It's just the basic stuff that you can change, really. Which means to say that all you can fix up is your picture-and that's about it. Which I guess is not so bad for people who don't really feel like they need to have a social network that shows off their character and taste and style and all that. But what about those who DO want to stand out and completely hate the fact that their Facebook accounts look just like their worst enemy's? This is where FaceTheme comes in! OK, it's not perfect, especially for people like me who really want to be able to use really hot fonts and that sort of thing. But what it will do is let you touch up your site a little so it'll look just like you've put up either one of the standard themes-or a background picture all of your own with colors you yourself choose. How cool is that? It's pretty simple tech, you don't have to have a degree in web design or whatever to use FaceTheme. And it won't even require you to mess with your Facebook itself. You just have to pick the theme you like, if you want to go with a standard theme. A fan of, say, Lady Gaga or Justin Bieber, and you want to fix up your Facebook so it's got Gaga's or Bieber's pic on it from the great concert you went to last weekend? Easy as pie. Just head to FaceTheme, search for the exact standard theme you want, and click 'install'. Then go to your Facebook page to see the results. That's it! Of course, if in the future you want to change the theme or even delete it, that's easy too. Just pick a new theme the very same way you picked the first one. Or, if you want to go back to your standard Facebook layout, click the 'uninstall' button and that'll do it for you. But what if you're like me and lots of other people around and you really want to put up your own theme? Put pictures of yourself in it, or your dog or cat or friends or goldfish even, if that's what works for you. Or choose the colors you yourself want, instead of just that flat old boring blue that you're stuck with? Then try not to jump up and down because FaceTheme will let you make your own very special theme! The Custom Theme Creator feature is what FaceTheme calls it and it works like a charm. Just hit the Custom Theme Creator link on the FaceTheme page and you're off to the super special theme creator page. Choose ANY and EVERY color you want! Upload any pic you want (hey, just nothing you'd be ashamed to show your mom, OK? And of course make sure you can use it for purposes like that) and arrange it however you like. And when you're done with fixing up your FaceTheme theme, hit the 'preview' button to check it out and then the 'finish' button once it's done. And there you have it! You can fix up a theme that ONLY YOU can have and be really super proud of. No worries about having a Facebook account that looks just like your creepy neighbor's or whoever's. FaceTheme can help you with that fast and easy! How to Change Your Facebook Layout Related articles: |
