Default Cardomain

Hey all,

I'm trying to set up a cardomain page to put all of my pictures of my car and mods, so I have a nice place to keep everything together. I feel pretty stupid because I can't really figure it out. How do you guys make your pages look so nice with backgrounds and text? All I can figure out is to upload a gallery and all that does is put a line of photos down my personal page. I don't know where I can customize my page with text telling the story of my car, or how to rearrange and size pics. Can anyone give me a lesson on how to work cardomain? I promise in return I'll make a sweet page :p

Thanks

Just go to your car's page, edit it, upload your pictures and post them in there with the [ img ] tag I believe, it's been a while

I'm not seeing what your describing. Here's what I see when I edit my ride's page:

All it says is upload pictures and add a caption next to it. That seems to be all I can do.

Ah new edit format I am used to their old tool been a while since I editied mine.

The way i learned was "Just play with it" sorry I know that is not what you wanted to hear.

It seems like more recently they're changing the formats and layout on that site all the time. Just play around with it like Tadcaster said, that's what I do whenever they change something.

Basically, when you log in, click on "Garage" at left, then "Edit Ride Page" to edit the layout of your text and pics. If you get the layout with the large pics, go up to just below the "drag photos of videos here" dashed box and click on "Use old ride page editor". It's easier and less confusing since it pretty much looks like how your page will look.

That's exactly what I need. I don't see the link to the "old ride page editor" though. It's clearly not below the dashed drag and drop box as you can see in my pic.

This must be. I can't find it anywhere.

This new layout sucks imo. I honestly can't figure out how to do anything besides make a long line of photos with captions.
