Profile Tutorial

This thread will provide information on how to place music, videos and a vistor counter to go on your profile signature.

Notice
Please note that music MUST have a start/stop button. Vidoes, playlists and other media that automatically play sounds (autoplay) will be removed and the user warned.
Having autoplay on profiles is against the Torn City rules.

The following areas may not include autoplay.

• Profile signatures.
• Forum signatures.
• Faction descriptions.
• Bazaar descriptions.

How to put music on your profile

1) Create an account
• Go to www.projectplaylist.com and create an account.

2) Choose music
• Once logged in click search musicon top of your screen.
• Find the track you want, and click on (+) to add the song.
• You now have to test if it works, and if it works, click "It works! Add it to my playlist".

• Click continue to search through and add more songs.

3) Get your player
• Click Go to my playlists after you have added the songs.
• Click Your-name playlist (x tracks)

4) Get the code you need for TC
• Under Get the code for this playlist click the option Get the code for any other social network, blog or your own personal website.

• Now you can choose a color, and random play.
• Do that and click get code!

A box with a lot of code appears now.

You need the line of that code, it starts with: src="http://www.musicplaylist.us/mc/mp3player-othersite.swf?

It ends with: playlist=3300969" (can be any number, this is just an example)

5) Add the player to your profile
Those that use the "Default Sidebar" can add the player to their profile by clicking "Settings" at the top right hand corner, then selecting "Profile Signature".

Those that use the "Old School" sidebar can add the player to their profile by clicking "Preferences" located on the sidebar, then selecting "Profile Signature".

• In the box that appears type [*flash]the url you copied in the previous step[*/flash]
• Note that you only need the url from the code and have to remove the scr=" "
• Also you need to remove the * out of the flash [ ] in order for it to work!

If you followed all these steps, you will have your own customised player in your profile now.

6) Size adjustment
• Those of you who are having trouble with the size of the music player:

Add [*flash=270x435] to the front of the code instead of the [*flash].

This resizes the player to the full proper size and not cutting anything off.

If you change the number values in [*flash=270x435] then you must match those numbers within the mywidth=435&myheight=270 portion of the code.

Example:

[*flash=375x625] and match the numbers in the code to http://www.profilelist.net/mc/mp3player-othersite.swf?config=http://www.profilelist.net/mc/config/config_black.xml&
mywidth=625&myheight=375&playlist_url=http://www.profilelist.net/loadplaylist.php?playlist=6380256"

End result:

[*flash=375x625]http://www.profilelist.net/mc/mp3player-othersite.swf?config=http://www.profilelist.net/mc/config/
config_black.xml&mywidth=625&myheight=375&playlist_url=http://www.profilelist.net/loadplaylist.php?playlist=6380256[*/flash]

• You can edit your player by logging in to your Project Playlist account and edit the songs, or start this tutorial again.

[color=red]How to add music using Mixpod:[/color][color=blue]

1) Create an account.

Go to [url]http://www.mixpod.com[/url]

2) Create a playlist

From the "My playlist" drop-down menu, select "New playlist"

3) select a skin

In the new window select select a new skin

4) Add music

From the "Add music" tab you can search for music and then put it in your player with the "+" button

From the "Customize" tab you can select a different skin, colors and style and select a few options such as autoplay,loop,privacy,shuffle and volume.
Here you should select autoplay to be turned off, so that you don't get into trouble since it's not allowed.

From the "Save playlist" you give it a name and a description and you push the green "SAVE(get code)" button .

5) Push the green button

After you pushed the green button, in the next page, select to embed your player into Gaia, from the menu on the left.

6) Get the code

Copy the code you get and paste it on your profile , between the [flash=HxW][/flash] tags and put the width(W) and height(H) so that it matches the value in your code.

Example:

[*flash=265x270]http://assets.myflashfetish.com/swf/mp3/mp-dog.swf?myid=36714102&path=2009/12/01&mycolor=B99868&mycolor2=48808C&mycolor3=FFFFFF&autoplay=true&rand=0&f=4&vol=100&pat=0&grad=false&ow=270&oh=265 [/flash]

note: the "*" is to be removed.I put it there just so that the actual BBcode can be seen.

[color=red]How to add a map hit-counter onto your profile:[/color]
Tutorial by: Hyper [846708]
I think it was easier to explain in a Google doc, please find the link below.

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mvIh4WKGNLZJoXSGLbFloABWRrM3pC8RM-u-GXDPSVg/edit

<param name="allowNetworking" value="all" /><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /><param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><param name="flashvars" value="m=0&i=9lmtjyszg4o&r=40&c=fff600" /><object data="http://rj.revolvermaps.com/f/f.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="450" height="225"><param name="allowNetworking" value="all" /><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /><param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><param name="flashvars" value="m=0&i=9lmtjyszg4o&r=40&c=fff600" /></object></object><br /><img src="http://jj.revolvermaps.com/c/9lmtjyszg4o.gif" width="1" height="1" alt="" /><a href="http://www.revolvermaps.com/?target=enlarge&i=9lmtjyszg4o&color=fff600&m=0"></a></div>

[color=red]How to add an Hit-counter in your profile:[/color][color=blue]

People like to see how many times their profile is visited.
Really easy to do:

1) Visit --> www.amazingcounters.com.

2) select counter

Go to the sample counters part and click on the style you want.

3) Customize counter

Fill out the form they provide (it makes you sign up there so you can edit it later)

Site url: http://www.torncity.com/profiles.php?XID=your id here

Increment on -: All hits

Adult Content - : Normal

Start count: 0

4) Get the code

Follow the steps and you end up with a big long code.

Again, you wont need the whole code, just this part:
http://c7.amazingcounters.com/counter.php?i=1421339&c=4444230

5) Add the counter.

In Torncity, go to preferences then profile signature.

Now you will add the link into your profile picture.

Type: [*flash] the link as shown above [*/flash]

You can adjust the size yourself by doing [*flash=30x120] in the first tag. You can try any numbers, just play with it to find out what looks best.

Important, do not type the * in there.

If you have followed these steps the counter should now be on your profile page.

Enjoy![/color]

[color=red]How to put a youtube video in your profile?[/color][color=blue]

1) Find the video and get the code

Go to youtube.com and browse until you see the video you like. Then look to the right and highlight and copy the embedded tag.

Now the embedded tag should look messy but all you want is the url part e.g:

http://youtube.com/watch?v=a733LewgmD0

Then get rid of the 'watch?v=' part and replace it with 'v/'

So you'll get;
http://youtube.com/v/a733LewgmD0

2) Add the video

In Torncity, go to preferences then profile signature.

Then just do [flash*]http://youtube.com/v/a733LewgmD0[/flash*]

(without the * of course)

(Hyper Edit) The video will be a little square if added as below, you can change this by setting a size value within the Flash Tag like this ...

[*flash=370x600]http://youtube.com/v/a733LewgmD0[/flash*]

The 1st value (370) is height, the 2nd value 600 is width of the video. If your seeing black boarders its because the aspect ratio is not correct after you have enlarged the video. Just play with it until it looks ok.
