Revision as of 10:43, 25 April 2009
The Profile section contains various settings which change the behaviour and appearance of AniDB. So you should have a look at the settings after registering and from time to time after that as new features get added once in a while you might miss out otherwise ;)
CSS Tab
AniDB hosts some custom stylesheets for your viewing pleasure, to see them you just need to go to your profile ( on AniDB) and select the one you wish to use using the NEXT and PREV buttons to see a thumbnail, optionally you can view a screenshot of the style by clicking the link below the thumbnail. When you are happy with one style just click apply.
If you created your own style for AniDB and want to share it with everyone else please send a PM to deridiot @ AniDB
You might also want to periodically check AniDB:Markup DEV for a list of the latest AniDB changes with CSS implications.
The sourcecode of all release versions of the CSS styles listed on this page is available via SVN. The sourcecode has migrated to Git. See AniDB:CSS Dev on details to obtain a copy.
By HTTP: http://dev.anidb.net/websvn/
Note | If you are using a custom CSS stylesheet please make sure you are basing your work on some current available stylesheet and test to see if the images you are using are still in use after each AniDB release. |
Further pages of interest, if you plan to create your own AniDB Style:
- AniDB:Page layout - general page structure
- AniDB:Markup - anime page structure
- AniDB:Markup DEV - recent structural changes
- AniDB:CSS Dev - information on how to get the source of existing styles

Note | You will not be able to access your own MyList while a master account is set and you will not be able to modify the other user's MyList. I.e. you can't add or remove any files to/from MyList and you can't mark anything watched/unwatched (this might change in the future).
The user you specify will be notified of your request and will have to grant it before this setting has any effect. |

User CSS Tab
CSS entered here is injected into the header of every page served to you, after the links to the CSS template you've chosen in the CSS Tab.
