MySpace Jimmy Buffett Themes and Page Idea Resources

If you love two things, MySpace and Jimmy Buffett. Well I am sure that finding a MySpace theme that you can express your love for this famous Parrot Head is something you have been looking for.

The whole "Jimmy Buffett" persona does not apply to the average MySpacer, only if you are over 30, you love eating cheeseburgers in paradise, you are a bona-fide beach bum who loves to sip Margaritas, or if you just plain love Jimmy and his music. I, myself am all of the above.

I fell in love with Jimmy when I vacationed in the Keys a few years ago. Jimmy's presence is instilled and engrained into almost every aspect of the Florida Keys, from the gorgeous hot beaches, to the crowded and hoppin' bars, to the endless shopping and sight seeing available in and around the area.

Intrigued yet? If you really want to get in tune to what an online state of mind is all about simply visit Margaritaville to learn more about the ever famous Musician who started it all!

Over the years, I have had a few different Jimmy Buffett themes and backgrounds for my MySpace pertaining to Jimmy and the Parrothead lifestyle. When I searched for HTML codes to change the look of my MySpace page, some of my search queries I used were, of course; Jimmy Buffett, Beach, Parrot Head, Margaritaville and Cheeseburger in Paradise. There are not as many results as you would think that actually come up in the search engines. Some themes are more "Buffettized" than others, while some are simply the traditional background of the sand and beach with a few "Buffettisms" thrown into the mix.

Here are just a few places to find some really hot themes and add on's for your MySpace with Mr. Buffett in mind:

Adding Jimmy Buffet Themed Icons and Photos-

While the HTML version codes can be very hard to locate on the internet, there is a trick to placing different icons and pictures of Jimmy and other Parrothead memorabilia on your MySpace page. The safest way to do it is to open up a free photo bucket account. Here you can manage all of the photos you may find while searching the web or photos of Key West and Jimmy that you may have taken yourself. This keeps all of your Buffett themed favorites in one place. Be very careful with copyright infringement and laws, if you are unsure, don't be afraid to ask, but if you are able to post free pictures always make sure you give credit where credit is due.

There are many ways you can find an array of cool photos, graphics and "Jimmy stamps" such as Conch Republic, Sloppy Joes Bar, Margaritaville, and "Five O'Clock Somewhere" Signs and Icons. All you need to do is to search Google for cool icons and pictures for your page. Simply use the following popular search tags: Jimmy Buffett, Margaritaville, "Five O' Clock Somewhere" and Parrothead.

After you have located and downloaded the photos you want. You can then add them under the "who I'd like to meet" section under edit your profile.
