Current status of the Ning Platform is always available on the Ning Status Blog.

It's very interesting to change the status background in the latest activity. Especially in the main page. I changed it to thinking bubbles. :)

You can see the real result here.

 

 

To do this, you need a small image and CSS3 supported browser.

 

The CSS is:

 

.xg_module_activity .status{

   color: #666;
   border: 1px solid #ccc;
   background-color: #fff;
   border-radius: 50px;
   -moz-border-radius: 50px;
   -webkit-border-radius: 50px;
   padding-left:25px;
   margin-left:25px;

}

 

.xg_module_activity .feed-story .status-bg {

   -ms-filter:none;
   opacity:100;
   display: block;

   width:25px;

   background: #fff url('https://api.ning.com/files/sTKz1f8S0Pfd6ZE5Ayyif7fOZlr
MdrOuaJsGsyRbrVTeQ8CqjaUHirNGjjk0GZ67ZLHIPx*eSfEoHiBcsHAUA9XLM
05pD1mn/bubble.gif') no-repeat 0 20%;

}

 

.xg_module_activity .feed-story-status .current {

   padding-right: 30px;

}

 

.xg_module_activity .status-bg {display:none;}
.xg_module_activity .left_arrow {display:none;}

 

Remeber to keep this one  in one line, no break!! Click here to get the background img URL.

background: #fff url('https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/11384472?profile=original') no-repeat 0 20%;

 

 

As for the Lady GaGa staff in the image. She's gonna have a FREE concert in Taiwan next month. WOW!

And the Facebook is to teach you how to keep the spam away from your wall. That's will be my next tips.

 


More on, if you need shadows, add these:

 

-webkit-box-shadow: 3px 3px 10px #eda4a4;
-moz-box-shadow: 3px 3px 10px #eda4a4;
box-shadow: 3px 3px 10px #eda4a4;

 

into the first block. that is  .xg_module_activity .status{ .... }

The result looks like:

 

Isn't it lovely?

By the way, I almost forget to say, there is a CSS3 Generator.

 

 

Hope you can enjoy it. =^_^=

  • Thanks for sharing this with us. I put it on my page and it's looking good. I just have one little problem. The large bubble shows up, but the two smaller ones on the left don't.

      BTW, my I see your site?

      • Hi,
        I discovered and fixed the problem already. I made a new image to go in that spot using a different color. It looks great now. You can see it on my page if you want.

        Thanks Alex! Maybe if you have time someday, and want to add it - - I'd be honored. Or, I'll add it in the future if you like, and make sure you get credit for it.

        Best Regards,

        Jen

        • Could I add it by myself? Sorry I don't know that. :P

          OK, I'll do it. Using blog? And you will collect to the NING tips, right?

          This is good. I'm just gonna writing a blog post about how to keep facebook spam away in English and don't know where to post it. Now I know. :)

          • NC for Hire

            Blog would be great for your facebook spam post. And the free ning tips section would be good for your tip. I'll leave the link on your profile page.

            ;-)
