Monster Drinks: Allow your passionate users to express themselves! 2007-11-14 17:40:10 We are saddened to have received a legal notice from Continental Enterprises acting on behalf of Hansen Beverage, the company that produces Monster
brand energy drinks.
Basically, they are requiring that we remove all Monster backgrounds that CoolChaser users
have submitted on our site.
Frankly, we are quite perplexed by their actions - why would a company want to piss off some 4,000 of, in their own words, Hansen’s most passionate and devoted enthusiasts? We have tried to come up with creative alternatives and suggested that we offer CoolChaser users the opportunity to replace their backgrounds with “official” ones created by Hansen, but they declined.
So, I’m sorry to say we have to comply to Continental and Hansen’s demands. For each of the 4,000 odd users who are affected, we will be individually sending you an email notifying of this incident. You can of course change your layout by simply visiting our layout editor:

Is your network banner looking weird? 2007-12-02 17:17:11 MySpace has been experimenting with that box that says “XXX is in your network
” and is causing the layout to look weird. It’s adding some weird space around and above the graphic like below:
We are not sure if this is a permanent thing or MySpace just messing around like before. They might revert back the changes since it’s messing up their own layoutfrom their own editor so we are waiting a bit more to see before we update our code on our site. But ifyou would like to fix it manually, paste this code in the “Who I’d like to meet” box (UPDATED: 12/3 3:21 PST):
<style>
.a {fix extended network border}
table table td.text table { border-collapse:collapse; margin-top:-10px; }
td.text table.blurbs,
td.text table.latestBlogEntry,
td.text table.friendSpace,
td.text table.friendsComments,
table table td.text table table,
table.friendSpace td.text table,
table.friendsComments td.text table { border-collapse:separate; margin-top:0px; }

Layout not looking right? 2008-03-13 12:39:01 Looks like MySpace hired a new ambitious engineer! (ooops sorry for the cynical tone :D) Well, it seems like they are working hard to change some stuff that is messing up some of our layouts.

Switch to comma delimited tags 2008-05-22 02:56:08 We started off using space as a delimiter for tags(a.k.a. categories, keywords, labels). For instance, if you tag your clip “Bob Dylan songs”. It would appear as three separate tags: Bob, Dylan, and songs. If you want to choose a phrase as a tag, you wi have to trick the system by putting a hyphen between the words [...]
Is My Background a Copyright? 2008-05-27 12:27:36 Here’s a great tip for using Coolchaser.com to find an awesome background for your MySpace profile! Not all images on the internet are free.
