    umm. its not giving me the option to “costomize” so what do i do…i just made a whole new myspace.. so i really dont know what to do i have myspace before and it gave me the option to change to 2.0 but now it doesnt.. so i really dont know what to do can you help?

    I am having problems with the new 2.0. I, personally think it sucks. The new modules do not fit the old apps, like bumper stickers, green spot, etc. I like my new layout, but want to remove the modules so that the apps can fill the space they need basically I don’t want boxes and borders. What do I do to remove them without ruining the layout?

    I want to know why is it, that when I copy and paste a layout on the 2.0 it only copy the background and won’t take the whole layout like it was designed. I end up just trying to make the little boxes look as close to the layout as possible.

I’m so frustrated with this and cant help to wonder if I’m the only one having this particular problem….Am I? Please help

    I don’t see the “customize” in my edit profile section. Is that means that I don’t have the 2.0 profile or what? Please help me.

    I had the 1.0 lay out with CSS in one of the profile info boxes. When I changed to 2.0 I didn’t really think of that CSS affecting anything. I couldn’t get a new 2.0 lay out to take effect after I clicked PUBLISH. I changed back to the 1.0 lay out, deleted all references to CSS, then went back to the 2.0 version. I clicked ‘no theme’ and then previewed it, then went back and clicked the ‘happy day’ theme and clicked publish and the damn thing still won’t hold the changes.

    What gives?

  24. ~K on Wed, 10th Jun 2009 3:18 pm 

    AHHH – ok I am not sure if this was totally coincidence but… I remembered I also had my blog ‘formatted’. I went back into V1.0, went into the blog manager and clicked to restore the orignal settings.

    I went back into 2.0 version, selected a theme and VOILA, it worked.

    Hmmmm.

  25. aiko on Wed, 10th Jun 2009 5:42 pm
