Customize Backgrounds

C5W · 02-02-2016

Does anybody know how to customize your own background? (By uploading to your guild profile) What size? Example: 1000x500

You want to be creating a 1x15 canvas on a program that allows you to do pixel art. Decorate that small strip however you want, upload it as your guild picture and then set it as your background. You can make it move by animating it (which will create a .gif file) and then compressing it into a .jpeg. Here's a quick stationary one I made as an example. Feel free to download it to use as a template (you'll need to zoom in on your browser to download them).

< It's small, but that's how big you want it; or else it won't fit! It's also very easy to customise, so that's a plus.

< Also animated it to show you how it'd look if you decided to add movement.

(FYI, the code to set your guild picture as your background is <body background=profilelogo_GUILDNAMEHERE.jpeg>)

Hope that helps =)

Hey thanks! But is Paint.net an option, and is 1x15 not a little too small?

Yes for paint.net and no for the canvas question. The game stretches it at the exact same size as the profile GUI.

It would only fill a portion of your profile and look super ugly - as it would not stretch the image fully.

You are probably using the wrong code

Then you aren't using the BG code, you are probably using the single image code
