Need tutorial steps on that dot, invisible layers, URL of image
My profile background has gotten screwed up.

I can't find a help doc detailing installation; I think there may once have been a tutorial somewhere... ? but system isn't even letting me go back to prior pages of help docs.

I do see Otaru Sushi's question and Alexia Lee's solution about the dot, but could someone be more specific?

I vaguely recall having to do things with invisible layers before typing the period and maybe some space and finally something like URL = (http://...)

The . is put into the profile intro title so that anything that is put into the profile intro space will show up, meaning the blank images. You can do it from the "about me" area in your profile. I see you have a heart symbol there right now. That is where you would put a link to the blank image you want to use.

Where is the "profile intro title" or the "profile intro space"
into which I wish to place things?

Are we talking about "Background" field in Customize area?

My old profile (from screencap taken then) used form
url (http://xxxxxxxxx)

I am trying to recreate same background as before.
I formerly had three elements:

-- Ginko fullsize - same bkg img as before

-- Therefore I AM. I find several alt translations from Latin to Greek;
I can use old version, or this which in Greek is just I AM:
εἰμί

-- Blue star

I don't care if I have to abandon the Greek and the star.
At this point I'd rejoice just to have Ginko.

P.S.
If you need to know why Ginko is long,

It is long because Mac version of AF server
has no button regarding "do not repeat"
as PC versions do. At the time I was given both
the pic of Ginko and a transitional bar to put in
my profile below Ginko. I don't know how to
put Ginko in again, let alone both! TT

For the first part about the blank image, there are a couple ways to edit it but I will show you the one I find the easiest.

For the background image you would still place in the "page background" of your profile customize page.

I sort of remember what your profile looked like before but your screenshot isn't working for me to confirm your previous settings. Try to put the blank image in for now with your background pic and see if it improves or needs adjusting.
