Gorgeous Natural History Backgrounds for Myspace

Dinosaurs, Volcanoes, Glaciers, Rocks and More

What's more exciting than a dinosaur rumbling toward you, the flash and sizzle of lava running down the sides of a volcano or the screech of an iceberg about to split and crash into the sea. If you're like me, love the natural world at it's extremes-the far off planet orbiting the Earth
 or the fossil frozen in time, you might like to look at these favorite sites for a background for your web page.

Briefly, here's a few tips about using backgrounds in Myspace. Choose header, font, and link colors with either a contrasting or harmonizing hue. Dark colors are easier to see. Choose lighter color backgrounds so the text will stand out. Make sure that you use solid colors on your area backgrounds so that your layout is readable. If you use a photo on your areas, make sure that it isn't very busy so people can still read them.

Harmonizing hues are hues that are located right next to each other on the color wheel.

Contrasting hues are ones that are located directly opposite on the color wheel.
