Hide Ads On Myspace

I got a question today about how to hide the ads in MySpace. Since Myspace just changed pretty much all the coding on the site some of you that have fixed up profiles may have noticed a few major changes. You used to be able to hide the ads in MySpace pretty easy. Well guess what you still can :). I am also planing on writing some nice tutorials on modifying your Myspace profile very soon. Since Myspace changed a few days ago when you hide the ads it will also hide the top navigation.

UPDATE: Ok I now have 2 ways you can do this. One will keep the menu and the other will get rid over the entire top header section (the blue part).

Demo

Here is a demo for the code to hide your ads but keep the menu. Here  

Code

*Get rid of everything

<style>
.clearfix {
display:none !important;
position:absolute!important;
}
</style>

*Keep the menu

<style>
.clearfix {
margin-top: -100px;
}
</style>

    I added a Myspace profile div overlay at http://jericosystems.com/2008/07/06/myspace-overlay-one/

    Also let me know if you have any more questions or problems.

    I cant believe I haven’t heard from Myspace about this yet lol.

    On my myspace I have a photo at the very top of the page.
    id like to get rid of the ads like this code does, but have my picutre at the very top still.

    @ Joel: Are you talking about like a band page? Without seeing what your talking about its hard to say.

    @ Jade: Thanks :)

  18. MyAvatars 0.2 Joel Says:
    July 11th, 2008 at 2:27 am

    Yeah sorry. That’s exactly right, like on a lot of band pages.
    See http://www.myspace.com/schickel, I’d like the picture at the very top but I’d like to remove the ad below it.
    Thanks mate. Joel

    July 11th, 2008 at 2:57 am
    @ Joel: Without having a band profile or something of the sort i cant say for sure, however. The code is only made to edit the code used to make the blue sections on the header of the profile. I can see no reason to think that the first code above would edit out the pictures above the header so this would should be fine to use. The second code i give that is used to keep the menu will delete the picture above the header has it will move it out of range. If you want to keep the menu but keep the picture im sure i could come up with a way to do this.

    Hi. Thanks for this code.
    I was wondering though if you can help me with the music player…

    I have a code that puts the music player top left, and then i can adjust the numbers to move it out from the left or top.
    What I’d like is to make the music player center like this band…
    http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=3514282
    I know there’s a lot more going on with this bands profile, but if I could get a code to make the player stay center that would be a big help!
    Thanks! Steve

    July 12th, 2008 at 1:25 am
    @ Steve: Hello Steve and thanks for the comment. As for the media player i would be glad to help. Below is a code to get you started in moving your player around. Remember that you may have to play with these number a bit to get it perfect for your current layout. This will make it center though :)

    <style type=”text/css”>
    object {position:absolute; top:64px; left:50%; margin-left:-228px; z-index:9;}
    </style>

    I hope this helps you and gets you started in the right direction. If you have any more questions or problems fell free to ask.

    This helped so much. I make DIV overlay layouts all the time. And the ad always messes up my cool designs. I am glad for people like you who like helping with small problems. Thanks. :)

  24. MyAvatars 0.2 Steve Says:
    July 12th, 2008 at 11:49 pm

    Thanks Eric!! It worked well as far as positioning and looks, but there’s a problem, the player wont play.

    I’ve used the following code to set up the Music Player the way I wanted.

    table table embed {display:block; width:450px; height:345px; position:absolute; top:64px; left:50%; margin-left:-228px; z-index:9; visibility:visible;}

    Is there anything in this code that would deactivate the player from playing?

  25. MyAvatars 0.2 Steve Says:
    July 13th, 2008 at 12:12 am

    I figured out if I change ‘position:’ to relative instead of absolute the player works, but it’s then moved position too far down the screen.
    This is page I’m trying to get right. http://www.myspace.com/schickel

    Thanks mate!
    Steve

  26. MyAvatars 0.2 Eric Hamby Says:
    July 13th, 2008 at 12:39 am
    The code I gave you above is the same code that was on the link you gave me so it should work ok.

    I made a test account using the code I gave above.

    object {position:absolute; top:64px; left:50%; margin-left:-228px; z-index:9;}

    and the player still worked fine. You may have some other code on your profile that is blocking.

  27. MyAvatars 0.2 Steve Says:
    July 13th, 2008 at 12:41 am

    Thanks mate. I’ll try to sort it out then, I do have a lot of other code going on. lol
    Cheers!

  29. MyAvatars 0.2 Eric Hamby Says:
    July 13th, 2008 at 9:42 pm
    @ Steve: good luck, let me know how it goes.

    @ Ashley: No problem, I hate the ads also. Myspace seems to get more and more ads ever week. And with the captcha systems they have you cant do anything on the site any more. Most people try to make site easy for there users and Myspace seems to want to make it harder and harder every time they update.

    This was extremely awesome to find this code. I had one before that hid the ads, but it also disabled my music player. THANKS FOR BEING AWESOME and finding a code that hides ONLY the ads. :D

    July 27th, 2008 at 12:31 pm

    I must also add though, I hope everyone knows that if you get caught with this code, your account will be DELETED because it is against the terms of agreement. lol But it’s not like they’re that efficient, they won’t catch ya. ;)

  39. MyAvatars 0.2 Eric Hamby Says:
    July 27th, 2008 at 1:49 pm
    Mine hasn’t had ads for over 2 years and i haven’t been deleted yet. I didn’t mention you would get deleted because most people that want to hide ads already know this and the fact they would come here looking to find a way to do it means they don’t care about being deleted so why mention it. I also got tired of searching for a way to hide ads and all everyone would say is you would get deleted, so besides talking about getting deleted i just gave people what they want, a way to hide ads :)

    thanks a lot. I tried the code and it worked, but there seems to be a slight issue. I have a banner and after i put the code in it pushed my banner down covering a bit of my default picture. and i used the “keep the menu” code, but the menu was completely gone. when i tried the other the page was pushed down even more. any solution for me?

  46. MyAvatars 0.2 Eric Hamby Says:

    i have a regular profile. maybe i’m putting the code in the wrong place? i put it at the top of my about me section. http://www.myspace.com/princesslucikai
    and do you know how i would remove that stupid banner in the left hand corner?
    and one more thing lol… why do i have “about me” twice??
    - confused

  48. MyAvatars 0.2 Luci Says:
    August 14th, 2008 at 12:59 am

  49. MyAvatars 0.2 Eric Hamby Says:
    August 14th, 2008 at 4:16 am
    Looking at your profile it looks as though you have some code issues. Somehting to try would be to remove all the code on your profile, save it, then put just the code here in it and see if the ads are gone. If this works you know it was the code on your pro and then you can start from there to go about fixing it.

    P.S - With your profile on private its hard to see whats going on ;)

    In your layout code that you have there should be a DIV code. Take out the DIV table that contains the layout credits.

    Again, thank you.
    Also, do you have a code to completely center my about me, friends, and comments all in a column and get rid of everything else?
    It would really help alot.

    thanx for the refined & concise code !
    it is refreshing to see someone take pride in their coding & keep it simple and clean.
    i used it along with the following

    remove your friends : .friendSpace { display: none; }
    remove the comments : .friendsComments { display:none; }

    @jailynn: This is an option in myspace itself. Look around your options for it.

    @r o c u a n: hey and thanks for the comment. Has for the bottom links try this…

    September 18th, 2008 at 2:49 pm
    There is no way to do this. To hide the ads you have to move your profile up to place the ads behind where you cant see. if you move your profile back down youll see the ads again.

    Eric your code work is flawless. I hate to bother you, but I’m hoping you can help me. I implemented your codes which work great, but I see a ad on the top left that looks to be backward with the words MySpace Help on it.

    Is there anything you can do to help me get rid of it?

    @ J.D:

    From what i can see you have 2 credit tables from maybe either your layout you have or another code you have gotten. the easy way to get rid of these is to right click and go to properties and get the image name, then search for the image name in your code and delete it. If you want to remove the whole credit table you need to remove not only the image but the div or table that contains it.

    Hey i had a code before, that left the search box there and it left the home mail and profile stuff there aswell, but then i learned that your myspace would get deleted and then i learned that if no 1 reports you nothing will happen.

    so can you please make a code like that please?
    Cheers
