60 Tools and Websites for Myspace Users
Nov. 22nd, 2006 | by Aibek |
Do you guyz know that myspace is most popular site on the web, outnumbering Big Brother Google in pageviews. On september 8, 2006 it had 106 million registered accounts with 230.000 new ones added daily. So considering that I decided to create something myspace users can make use of, a list of tools/websites for creating original and unique profiles.
Design - Layouts, Backgrounds and more
BlinkYou
ProfileTweaks.com
123mycodes
Gazzump
MyspacePimper
Doobix
MyspaceToolbox

MyGirlySpace - mostly girly stuff (no mucho stuff here)
Games
FlashGamesInc - games for your profile
MySpaceGames - and some more
Myspace Avatars
Meez - create virtual 3D animated image of yourself and put it on your profile (Recommended)
MySpaceAvatars - plain image avatars (browse down by category)
Zwinky - full animated image avatars. Didn’t try this one as it requires installation of browse toolbar(don’t use this one unless you sure you can remove it later)
Editors
Mygen - very detailed and powerful profile creator/editor
Thomas’ Myspace Editor - user friendly but rather limited
Myspaceeditor - can’t do much with this one, but if you need something on the spot give it a try
Myspacetoolbox
Tools for Music

Tools for Images

MyFlashFetish - I recommend this one
RockYou - slide show + text = story

i think you meant, services listed here, since they were listed on the other website I haven’t checked them while writing this article, in case they aren’t working sorry for that. But anyways I checked out same article and from there got a lead through which I found out about myspace tornado. I have checked and seems to be working. Check it out
in some case one tool may work for some people while failing for others, depending on the network configuration of school, office etc
[...] Now that we have published list of tools for Youtube and Myspace it’s time to add another biggie to the lists category and iPod seems to be just the right option.

actually, there are also myspace tools that people can basically use to tweak their profiles. Of course it gets the job done.
