How to PIMP Your B-Run Profile.
By AARON
Ok, Your a Bullruner or at least a B-runner and you want to make your profile stand out, but you don't have a clue on how to do that. Well that is where I can help. With a little effort on your part your can make it as fun as you like. Shaun the site God has given you the tools to make the site yours you just need a push in the right direction.
Lets get started....
Body-
Shaun the Bullrun site god has give you his BODY: This is a very powerful tool that will transform your profile into your personal work of art.. You just need to start playing around with the icons that are strewn through out the Body. But only one will allow you to do some really amazing things.
Source-
The Sourse area is Shaun's gift to the B-runners and Bullrunners alike. Shaun has given you a little bit of his god power. It is how you input everything from pictures to Videos so spend a little time getting to understand the Source code area. At first its going to feel a little strange and your not going the understand the "CODE". But after a little bit of effort your going to start to understand it. I have gathered you a few bits of coded bits. To get you started.
***********************************************************************************************
MUSIC-
So you want to add a little mood music to your page. This is a very powerful application your adding and if used wrong will drive people who would like to vist your profile crazy. So be careful of the music you pick and make sure it is not, well you know. I have a little bit of code that will have to be entered in the source of your profile. (Copy only the code from <embed to /embed>) Then paste it in your source area. You are going to have to find your own tunes. I have given you Sammy Hagar I can't drive 55 to start with.
CODE For Adding Music:
<embed src="http://www.poconoperformance.com/HTMLobj-173/Sammy_Hagar_-_I_Can_t_Drive_55_1_.mp3" hidden="true" loop="false" autostart="True"></embed><embed src="http://dr-encko.wz.cz/10.mp3" hidden="false" loop="false" autostart="false"></embed>
Where to find your music. The place I like to go is http://beemp3.com/ It allows to to link into a page that is hosting your tune. There are millions of songs that you might want to add to my code.
***********************************************************************************************
Fonts-
Ever wondered how to make words bold or change the font to bold letters in you Bullrun profile or Thread comments, then get ready to learn how to change the Bulrun font and make it appear bold so that the Bulrun fonts in bold letters or bold text will make your Bullrun profile look much more appealing and attractive. Writing bold letters or making your Bullrun fonts appear in bold is never more easier.
How to change the type of font on Bullrun profiles :-
The Web-fonts :-
There are different fonts that you can use, and some of the safest web fonts that are used are :
Arial
Times New Roman: (The default for all web-browsers - i.e, if you dont give a font face tag, the text will appear in this font)
Georgia
Impact
Verdana
Comic Sans ms
Apart from these above, you can give other fonts too, but remember that if the person who is viewing your page doesnt have that font, then he will only see your font in the default "Times New Roman".
Changing web fonts in Bullrun.com using tags :-
In HTML tags are used to start and stop a command. This is the opening tag - < >
And this is the closing tag - </ >
All the commands in html are given inside these tags.
To change the font type for your B-run profile, we need to use the - font face - command.
So, we first select a font from the above list of web-fonts, say, Impact, and then open the tag like this :
<font face="impact">And here you type whatever you would like to see in the Impact font.</font >
And this is how the output of the above code would have looked like in your B-run profile :
And here you type whatever you would like to see in the Impact font.
Notice that I have also closed the tag after entering the desired text in between the two tags. While closing you need to give only this much :
</font >
The double quotes inside the opening tag is not a necessity if the font you select has only one word, but dont forget that if the font has more than one word, like, Comis Sans MS, then you have to give the font in double quotes.
HTML is not case-sensitive and hence you can give all your commands in upper-case or lower-case letters.
i.e, <font face="Comic Sans MS"> and <font face="COMIC sans ms"> is the same for HTML.
I hope you found this helpful, and with this i hope you will be able to make your B-run profile look more appealing. If you still have any doubts relating to Bullrun fonts or how to change the font type on Bullrun.com, then dont hesitate to goto to profile and use the PM to get some help from me.
I will add more tricks every so often.

For the whole mucis thing, how do you find music that you can ambed into your profile? Obviously you can't just pull one from your computer, so do we have to upload music somewhere before we embed it via the code you showed above?
