Bebo Ahhhh!

OK... So I want to make my own bebo skins cause most of theres I dont like..

I make 6 of the 7 needed...(I dont think I need the 7th one)

When I try to upload them it says:
"main_bg dimensions incorrect. Actual is -1x-1, must be 760x375, please rectify"

Is says that for all these except for main_footer which I uploaded

Can anyone help me out here? Like someone who has already done this before..

Here a the dimensions for all the parts which I have correct!

nav_bg 760x40 max size 10K

main_bg 760x375 max size 40K

main_icon 20x20 max size 1K

main_footer 11x15 max size 1K

module_header 375x44 max size 10K

module_bg 375x50 max size 10K

module_line 32x3 max size 1K

Im using photoshop cs2 btw

are you 100% sure your graphics are correct? i did my own bebo theme and got similar errors, and my sizes were indeed slightly out. i took their example skin and just used those images to put mine on top, just to be sure. then use photoshops optimisations to get the correct sizes (aim about 2K below what it asks for)

Your dimensions are probably fine, the problem is the upload feature on the bebo site. It may take ten or twenty clicks of the "upload" button for it to work, but they all go up eventually.

i've found it works fine if you just do it pic-by-pic

go back to the theme edit page and go to the CSS bit and you can edit the colours there

Is that the edit stylesheet page?

this is once more the genius of bebo. hit refresh, and/or clear out your cookies and all that stuff from the browser and it'll work. i had the same issues on mine (my black bg came up standard white etc. etc.), but it's just the cookie bebo puts on your machine, and so heavily relies on

what a horribly coded website

No luck....
