MyxerTag Customization



When setting your Band or Record Label up to promote many different places around the internet it is important to develop a consistent design that will let fans know they have come to the right place. Myxer now allows you to create a custom skin and custom text color for your MyxerTags so that they match the design of you website and MySpace.

I have included some screen shots of O'Neal McKnight's customized MyxerTag and original MyxerTad. His custom MyxerTag is all iced out like his glasses and chain. Notice how he used a simple background that is mostly a solid color with a graphic on the side. He may have been better off with a darker text but this MyxerTag looks a lot cooler.

To create your own custom skin you first must find or create a graphic 305 by 115 pixels in JPG, GIF, or PGN format. Once your graphic is created you will need to upload it on to a site. I use Facebook but any social network or photo posting site will do. Then copy the URL location of the image and paste it into the "Custom Skin URL:" text box. Then change the text color to a color that will stand out using the "Choose Color" button. Then just copy the HTML of the appropriate embed code and paste into your website or social network page.

If you have any trouble using customized MyxerTag please do not hesitate to contact us at Artist@myxer.com.
