It doesn&#8217;t have to be the main background.  But you do need something black on your page other than text.<br \/>\n3)  <b>L<\/b>arge!  I want to see a REALLY LARGE PHOTO!! Go big or go home (you can make your large photo blended if you want).<br \/>\n4)  <b>A<\/b> lot.  Let&#8217;s see a lot of something on your page.

Then you&#8217;ll have 1 additional hour to finish your page.  Meaning, all layouts need to be finished and uploaded by 5:00pm Mountain Time (that&#8217;s 4:00pm Pacific, 6:00pm Central, and 7:00pm Eastern).<\/p>\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve completed your layout, post it in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.brittishdesigns.com\/gallery\/\">my gallery<\/a>.  Then email me (designerbrittney at gmail dot com) a link to your layout in my gallery.  That way I can email you back with your PRIZE!!<\/p>\n<p>*IMPORTANT NOTE* When you want to link to one of your pages in the Britt-ish Designs Gallery, you need to click on this little icon to make sure that &#8220;Display File Information&#8221; is on.<\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i70.photobucket.com\/albums\/i104\/designerbrittney\/Blog%20Stuff\/LinkHowTo1.jpg\" \/><\/center><\/p>\n<p>Then, below your credits, you&#8217;ll see the File Information.

It won&#8217;t work. <\/b><\/p>\n<p>One more note. I know some people had trouble in the past with the gallery. But all problems were solved by simply trying another browser. My gallery and Internet Explorer don&#8217;t get along. So, if you&#8217;re having trouble seeing where to Register, Log In, Upload, or Comment &#8211; just try using a different browser (like Firefox, for example) and you shouldn&#8217;t have any trouble.<\/p>\n<p>Here is my page!!!<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"http:\/\/i70.photobucket.com\/albums\/i104\/designerbrittney\/Blog%20Stuff\/PrettyPrettyPrincess_BLOG.jpg\"><img src=http:\/\/i70.photobucket.com\/albums\/i104\/designerbrittney\/Blog%20Stuff\/PrettyPrettyPrincess_BLOG.jpg width=600><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.brittishdesigns.com\/gallery\/displayimage.php?pid=1304\"><i>{credits here}<\/i><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<p>GOOD LUCK!!!
