Sign in to disble this ad
I was handed the redesign of my band's MySpace page. I've never set up one before, and this one is set up but needs major revising. I've tried looking up the help files but what they tell me to do, doesn't seem to work. So if anybody out there is really familiar with how MySpace works, I need your help!

When I click on Customize Profile or Edit Profile, I get the same page where there's no real way to change anything. It may be a bug or something that I have to contact them about.

I have a layout made from another site, I'm just having trouble getting it to work on MySpace. When I copy and paste the code from the layout page, it doesn't make the main page change, just the one I'm on.

But mine isn't changing the main page at all. Doesn't even affect it. Just changes the page I'm on.
