I made a step-by-step instruction guide to editing your profile.
I've put them into two categories - standard and customized.
Stanard (2 steps)
1. To get started, press "Edit My Profile" at the bottom of your profile.
2. Once there, you'll find a tab called 'Themes', with a list of the different standard backgrounds you can use on your profile. You just need to select the background you want, then press 'Save'.
Customized (9 steps)
1. Press 'Customize' beside the 'Themes'
2. There, you'll see 3 different options. 
- Background Color [Red]
This will change the background color.
- Text Color [green]
This changed the main writing color in your profile.
- Special Text Color [black]
This will change your 'stats' color.
Example:
3. This next step will change your background image.
Click 'Change Picture'
4. Then a box will come up, asking you to enter an 'image url'
You can go into 'Google', then 'Images' and search for ".... wallpaper'
When you've found a picture you like, right-click it and select 'Copy imagine location', then go back to the 'Image url' box, right-click the box and press 'Paste'
I used a Harry Potter wallpaper as an example.

5. Click 'OK' and that'll save the backround.
6. You can position the picture around abit, just play about with the different options until you find one that suits you.
7. The next is 'Box Color'
I chose blue as an example.
8. When you're happy with the color of the box, you can change the border around the box.
I picked 'dashed', red and 'Border width- 5'
And it came out like this:
9. Lastly, the 'Icon' button at the bottom.
This is to change the little
you have beside your info on your profile
.
You'll need to upload a small image for that, as it's quite small.

I hope that helps! If you have any questions or see any mistakes with this, send me a PM.

This is great Dingo! Thank you! ^_^ But I think you should add how you save the picture you want as a background (right click on the pic and choose copy picture address).

I had the same problem, you can save your image in paint and load straight from Miss Bimbo! You can re-size it that way too.

Do you use Firefox? That's what I'm using and I get that option.
You can always go to the address bar, select it all then 'right click', press copy, and then paste it in tho the "Image Url" bar.

I was At 200 Now Im at 20 something.
This isn't the place to ask this question.
But it may have been reset to 0 on the 24th Nov. because you were telling people you gave them bimbo credit. That's seen as hinting towards wanting BC back.
Or it could be because it resets itself every Friday.
