Facebook Layouts: How To Change Your Facebook Background

Well honestly Facebook has clearly become the ideal social network for those wishing to stay in touch with their friends, one thing has always been missing: the ability to change your facebook background with layouts. Some protest, “But I don’t want any backgrounds–I don’t want to sacrafice speed and simplicity.” That’s fine. You don’t have to change; however, the lack of ability to actually style your facebook experience is ridiculous. And, finally with PageRage, the ability to style your facebook is now achievable. I’ve personally looked through a handful of solutions to styling your Facebook background, and without a doubt, PageRage is the best one. Why? Because with PageRage, your friends have a choice to either (i) view your background and install PageRage, or (ii) use Facebook the way they always have: in a plain way.

How PageRage Works:

With PageRage, you must install a Firefox or Internet Explorer extension/plugin that allows you to view stylized facebook backgrounds. After you choose a decked-out Facebook background, your friends can view yours, too; but they must also have the Firefox or Internet Explorer extension found here. The steps to install PageRage are very simple:
  1. Download the plugin for your browser (just click yes whenever the browser asks you a question–and yes, I’ve been using it for months PageRage is 100% safe. )
  2. Make sure you’re logged into Facebook
  3. Head back to PageRage and select your layout
  4. Share with your friends: I’ve found this to be the most important stepbecause your friends can view your styled-out profile only if they have downloaded the plugin, as well.
So there you have it. You can now surf and style out your Facebook profile. Best of luck, and have fun pimping out your profile! You can keep track of PageRage through their blog here.
