EQO Widget - Message Boards for MySpace


Face it, the default message board section of MySpace is plain and boring. The area designated for you to let all of your friends know your status such as online, on your mobil phone or whatever else may be the case is just not much to look at. The guys at EQO have released a widget that not only looks great but allows you to show all kinds of information to your visitors.



As you can see, EQO allows you to show your status with the "On My Mobil" status icon in the upper right corner, and provides a button that allows you to send text messages to your friends phone directly from your Myspace profile. You are also able to send pictures and text messages to it so that it displays to all of your friends exactly what your doing at the moment. In the photo above they've uploaded an image from their camera phone directly to the widget and said they are at the Coldplay concert.

Its a simple widget to take advantage of, its just a copy and paiste of a few lines of flash so check it out at EQOCommunications.com.

Add Games to Your MySpace Layout


  For those of you who are looking to add a game or two to your Myspace Layout , I suggest you try Flasteroids.  Although most of you on MySpace are not old enough to appreciate the Atari sensation Asteroids, hell most of you don't know what Atari is! EEK! 

Regardless of your age or lack there of, Flashteroids is an excellent game to add to any myspace layout or template in order to spice up your profile. 

The only downfall is, It's hard as sin!

More Abercrombie Myspace Layouts


I've noticed a pretty good response to our last post for Abercrombie MySpace Layouts, so I wanted to give the fans more of what they want. Ive rounded up a few more Abercrombie and Fitch themed MySpace Layouts, and they come from a site that has literally hundereds of customized myspace profiles to choose from.

So without furthur rambling here is the list directly to the A&F Myspace Templates for you to start using on your personal profile page. To get the code, there is a link at the top of each page which says "To view code click here".

MySpace Abercrombie Male Model Layout
This Abercrombie layout features a black and white background image of a stunning young man with no shirt on. The text boxes for all of your MySpace content is semi transparent so that you can still see the background as your scroll down the page.

A&F MySpace Model and Bikini Layout
This A and F MySpace template features the same male model in the previous layout, but is on a much smaller scale and is repeated in the background along with a picture of an Abercrombie bikini top for girls.

Abercrombie and Fitch T-Shirt Layout
This third layout is a very minimilistic template. It is white, and has a green girls shirt as the background. The content is also very easy to read, which is a problem with some of the other templates you see on Myspace.

Girly Abercrombie MySpace Template
This Myspace template is very girly. It has small images repeating as the background which include flip flops, belts, jeans and a pink Abercrombie mooose.

Girls Abercrombie & Fitch Myspace Layout
This layout is also pretty girly. It has random images of girls A&F tshirts as the background image. The content is blocked off in white and is also very easy to read.

Zingfu - Photo Templates for MySpace


Zingfu is a photo sharing application which allows you to add background images and themes to any picture you upload. Once you have edited your picture to get it how you like, its a simple click of the button to add it to your Myspace profile. This also works with blog software such as Xanga, Friendster, and others.

Once you've uploaded an image of yourself you can give it a theme to look like it is a magazine cover, a most wanted ad, movie poster, celebrity photo, or you can turn yourself into a Jedi Knight and much more. The great thing about Zingfu is that the code they provide is HTML based. This means that any MySpace updates that take place wont break the code like it has in the past for some widget based add ons.



You can see above a few examples of the things you can do with images of yourself, or for making your friends look dumb, and with the "Add to MySpace" button you can easily share your creations with all your Myspace Friends. Zingfu offers hundreds of variations to choose from for editing your MySpace Pictures. Check out Zingfu's MySpace page for more examples, or go directly to the Zingfu Homepage.

Browse through MySpace Profiles FAST


Myspace is known for its downtimes, and catapiller slow speeds on occasions. Sometimes you just want to see an update made to a friends profile, or browse through new peoples profiles so you can make Myspace friends fast. With all the templates and customization people do with their myspaces it can really put a drain on their servers causing you to wait forever to see people profiles. Well now there is a solution.

Browster is a Myspace extension for both Firefox and Internet Explorer that allows you to see a person profile without having to actually go to it with your browser. All you need to do, once you have the plugin installed is hover over a link to a person's profile and and a preview window will pop up showing you pictures, profile information, and a music player if it is a musicians profile. Browster is unbelievably quick compared to traditional ways of navigating through myspace and will save you a lot of time.

The great thing about Browster is that it is able to work with any site on the internet, not just Myspace although it is aimed directly for that use. Check out the Browster page and you are able to check out a flash demo of exactly how the little extension works and download it as well.

Browse MySpace from Work or at School


Have you ever been at work, or school and wanted to look at MySpace but didnt want to get in trouble from your boss or teacher? Or maybe you are younger and your parents dont want you involved with the whole MySpace site. Well, now theres a way to browse through myspace, or any other site for that matter safely and privately with a tool called Work Friendly.

Work Friendly is a very cool type of MySpace Hack that basically kills the css and images of a site leaving you with a basic text format and puts a header at the top of the page that looks like Microsoft Word. This is a great idea, especially for people at work that want to look at a site but don't want to worry about people glancing at their screen and seeing that they aren't really doing any work. Work Friendly even comes with a "boss key" so that you can move your mouse to a certain spot and it will switch it over to another window.

I came across this usefull tool from from another blogger, who gives a preview of what Work Friendly will look like when he enters in his myspace profile URL, which you can see below.
