you can use DIVs:
<DIV style="position: absolute; left: ##px; top: ##px; height: ##px; width: ##px; font-family: font name; font-size: #pt; color: #000000">

CONTENT GOES HERE

</DIV>

edit the bold parts.. use that for each different box of writing you want. it's automatically transparent, by the way. hope that helps! :)

EDIT:
if someone decides to take pitty please just send it to me by email!

you will never get it if you don't do it on your own... at least try...


<DIV style="position: absolute; left: ##px; top: ##px; height: ##px; width: ##px; font-family: font name; font-size: #pt; color: #000000">

## this is how many pixels from the left of the screen.
## this is how many pixels from the top of the screen.
## this is how many pixels long your text box will be.
## this is how many pixels wide your text box will be.
font name this is the name of the font you want the text to be
# this is how big you want to font to be
000000 and i'm pretty sure this is the font color...

just folow the color codes... and put what you want in there. trust me it is a lot of playing around with numbers... you will have more than one text box to make like this... but just start one at a time... like do the left one first, and once you get it lined up right, do the next one. i don't know how to break it down any clearer...

but there is a down side if the person viewing the screen doesnt see the website in the same view she does...like 1280 by 1024 pixels .... .then it will be ALL MESSED UP!... but i think it look fine cause most people have the same view... i did my site in div positions and its fine....!

Thanxx to all of you! but mostly thanxx to monkey bizzle! he/she made me understand how to do it. now im actually getting it! :) :cloud:

Yea, if you want your site to be for all different sized screens, then you could use tables for that. If you don't really care about that, then divs are a good way to go.

This does'nt help me at all! i dont know what to put on the bold stuff... can someone or YOU just make it for me it can't take that long!! please help me!! :crying: :ateddy: please?..
*sigh* some people are very ungrateful ;)

if you want it to be the same in all resolutions, you can use percentages instead of pixels.

i'm having issues with my site too... then i decided i don't care about other people's resolutions... if you use pixel measurements to line your stuff up, then the person who is veiwing it may have to scroll around to see everything... but it will all be in the same place...

and i am a she and you are welcome!
