Hello all!
I’m wanting to branch out in the TRP field and instead of just a basic kind of limited About section, I’m wanting something much more detailed and elaborate, but I’m having issues figuring out the coding/formatting intricacies of it. I figured out how to resize images and the like, but it still feels very limited and definitely not on par of what I have seen and believe can be done.
I was browsing different sites to find some way to achieve my goal, but couldn’t really find any set in stone way to get to where I’m wanting.
I did find this image on another website (Reddit) and I really like the uniqueness of it but after playing around with TRP3 for over an hour I simply could not figure out how they formatted their profile in such a way.
(Image in question, image is NOT mine https: //imgur .com/ a/ jFYghHH ) ((remove spaces to preview))
I did figure out how to resize the included images in TRP3, but I was wanting to move them to the left and right to act as a ‘border’ around some text, but could not find anything anywhere on how to achieve this, nor could I figure out how they got some of their images like the purple star at the top to be borderless.
If anyone could provide some help and some coding formats I could use to help spice up my profile, it would be very much appreciated!
Thank you for your time! (:

Wager its the head/title functions.
So for resizing your images - You’ll be using the final two numbers in the code for the image. The first one is your length, the second is your height.

Moving the actual images, I haven’t found a way to do them that doesn’t break the coding but icons do work. You’ll be using the Paragraph function to achieve this. It’s a lot of trial and error to figure it out without breaking, as TRP does have specific rules with what needs to come first in their coding. So I’d recommend messing around with a test profile and writing it all there so you don’t lose any pre-existing information.

Oh wow, your profile is gorgeous! I’m definitely going to try manipulating the icons then! I haven’t figured out how to make them borderless like the example I provided is, which is a bit frustrating because when I’m going for that black profile with striking colors, the icon borders feel like they throw it off. Do you happen to know how to achieve that, or will it just be very certain icons that can do it?
Thank you!
So far what I’m finding out is that it’s certain icons that have borders and others don’t. It definitely takes some playing around to figure out just which ones work and what doesn’t. With TRP’s recent little revamp of the icon system, it’s probably easier to figure them out.
Ultimately, I just sort of counted my losses on a couple of them that matched the color aesthetic.
This has been passed around discords if it helps. It’s a simple html code that lets you have backgrounds on your about page. trp guide. carrd. co (remove spaces). There are examples, too. They should probably rename it, since it only does backgrounds and is not a full trp guide.

If this is a double, excuse me. I think my response got deleted.
this has been passed around a few discords, it’s a 4 step guide on how to add images to your background. remove the spaces: trp guide . carrd . co.
