[change the background colour of your lomohome]
edited info from hobbes-99

select build/edit in your main lomohome area

copy and paste the code below into your 'about me' box when editing your lomohome area

to add a background colour is easy: for example, to add a black background use the following script
you need to copy and add ALL of the script

<script>
upperpart.bgColor='#000000';
lowerpart.bgColor='#000000';
</script>

here is a list of hex colours - choose a colour, copy the number into the code and replace where the #000000 is (unless you want to have black that is)

[text colour & background change]
suggested from jaypeg

a slightly more advanced way to also change background colour and text colours

to change the text colour if you have a black background. The FFF line where it says colour is where you affect the text colour. Again choose a hex code then copy and paste this script into the 'about me' area

<style type='text/css'>body {background: #000;}.bordthickcontent {background: #000;}.userinfo {background: #000;}.use { color: #FFF;}</style>


[add a background image]

If you want to source a jpg for your background just use the following code -copy and paste it into your 'about me' box when editing your lomohome
remember to choose a background image instead of 'http://www.blah blah your .jpg is hosted';

<script>
upperpart.background='http://www.blah blah your .jpg is hosted';
lowerpart.background='http://www.blah blah your .jpg is hosted';
</script>


[add a flash file to your lomo home]

Add the code to your 'Philosophy' box when you edit your homepage.
You need to put in the right canvas size for your swf - try 705 by 305.
And add in the url for where its hosted.

example:

<embed width='705' height='300' src='http://www.blah blah your .swf is
hosted'>

remember the <' and '> tags !
