Are you a retrophiliac? Before you get offended, please realize that retrophilia is a term used to describe a person who loves old objects and things from the past - retro objects. If you do have a love of these objects, this term does describe you, and you are in good company. Many others share this love with you, so much so that retro MySpace layouts have become easier and easier to find online by simply doing a search for them using that search term.
Just what could be considered as retro that could be included in the design of a MySpace layout? There are many examples, and we will list a few of them here. Fashion from a bygone era has always been considered as retro. A layout that featured a Poodle skirt and saddle oxfords would be considered retro, as would one with a Cadillac from that time period. The Peace symbol is considered retro, a part of the 60s that never went away, just like the bright yellow Smiley Face we all know and love.
Paisley print is also associated with the 60s, and you can find layouts that include this pattern as a background. "Flower Power" was a term for non-violence and opposition to the Vietnam War, and it was used in the 60s by those who were living the "hippy" lifestyle and who were also known as Flower Children. They wore flowered clothing and sported flowers in their hair. Many floral layouts have been created with this ideal of peace and love as a theme. Psychedelic colors presented as tie-dye patterns also can bring the 60s to mind.
For some, the world of the Playboy Mansion and all that goes with it are very up to date, but this slice of life can also be considered as retro. Playboy has been around a long time, indeed, and Playboy MySpace layouts are plentiful on the web. Marilyn Monroe, other movie celebrities from this era as well as television shows and music from the 50s and 60s are considered to be vintage, and all of these subjects have MySpace layouts to represent them, created by some very talented people.
So you have taken a tour of the various web sites that offer retro MySpace layouts, and though the decision was difficult, you have finally chosen a wonderful retro layout that you love, and one that also suits your personality. You can't wait to see how it's going to look on your profile page, but first, you have to put it in the proper place. The profile HTML code is usually placed in the About Me section, though some say it can also be placed in other sections such as the one for Books. A simple copy and paste from the web page containing the code, then placed onto your Edit Profile page in either of these sections should do the trick for you. Don't save just yet. Check out how the new profile looks first. If it suits you, save your changes and enjoy your new profile!
