[community] frequently asked questions.

Why is the line underneath the title in the Spring Kiss template not showing up?
Because you're using Internet Explorer.

Why do my custom comment pages look screwed up?
Because the layouts are coded for free accounts and they don't have access to custom comments pages. I will not code these comment pages for you since I dislike them.

Why do my linebreaks look strange when I view my layout in Internet Explorer?
To get rid of this, open your CSS file in a text editor and remove letter-spacing: 1px;. It will also decrease your letter spacing to the default amount, though.

Will you make a template for Boxer, Opal, Component or any other base that is exclusively for paid accounts?
No.

Will you make me a header or customize my layout for me?
No.

Why does [thisandthisandthis] box not show up?
Most likely because you did not order Livejournal to make it show up. To do this (in S2), you must visit the customize area and follow the instructions there. This is not (with a few exceptions that are always noted) defined in the CSS.

What do you mean by "text editor"?
I mean a program like Notepad - a simple light program that will allow you to edit the content of a file. Word is fine too but I personally prefer Notepad because it's lighter.

Will you take my firstborn?
MAYBE.

Hi, I had a couple of questions.

i was wondering, is it possible for me use you layout codes on you personal lj (assuming that [info]aery is your personal LJ) and practice on them? I have been looking for a way to make flexible squares look like the boxer layout and yours is perfect. (I checked the css out with mozilla, hope that's okay) I really wanted to ask so that we could avoid all of the previous layout related drama. I really hope you reply to this :D and thanks for reading.

I'll be sharing the code here in [info]absonant when I've finished finalizing some things like the calendar and tags pages. You can use the codes as they are if you wish, no credit necessary.

If you want to share codes please don't base them on mine in any way. I don't see the purpose of it since it pretty much is a fake boxer already so you don't really have to create another one, do you? If you do edit my codes and want to share them that's fine as long as you link me to where you've shared it and leave in some notice that the base is mine.

Thank you for asking =).

I was just woundering why my journal is all messed up. I've read the entire 'read me' thing it came with, followed the instructions..and something just isn't right. I've redone it several times, and uploaded my css many times and tried fixing it, but I just can't seem to figure out what is wrong. Can you please help me? I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks <3

Looking at your journal, I see that you are using Generator, which is not what the layout I coded was made for. That might be the problem.

"SIDEWAYS" Template Assistance
(Anonymous)
2006-10-02 05:43 pm UTC (link)
Hello,

I am very excited about using the "Sideways" template you designed. I downloaded it and everything appears to be installed correctly. (I used the MT style catcher plug-in). HOWEVER, I am confused as to how I should go about switching out the Journal Title image. I undestand that the image can be customized and swapped. I have created a jpg. using the exact same pixel size, color and transparency.

But I do not know where to add the jpg. I do not see anything in the css. to tell me where it belongs.

Please advice. I am looking forward to using your design. Thank you very much:)

I can be reached at angelique(AT)saucydamedelux.com

Here is the url when the templated has been installed: http://www.saucydamedelux.com/events/

I think that Opal, Component are available for free users now. I'm not sure really I have a paid account. Although I thought I read somewhere that boxer is the only style you can only get by having a paid account left

Do you ever plan on coverting your "Sideways" layout (from The Style Contest) for lj? If I can use it already, how do I install it?

hi i am currently using your spring kiss template and i have to say it looks fantastic. im not fantastic with html/css but you're instructions were clear enough for me to understand how to input my own header :)

i was just wondering if there was any way i could add a tracker html code in amongst the css code you have already provided?

Hello! I just installed your spring kiss template and tried adding a header, which worked, however, the menu links are done in a list format rather than across a single line. I used the same code you used in your header tutorial:

.header-menu {
position: relative;
top: 250px;
width: auto;
text-align: center;
}

Anything I can do to fix this? Thank you in advance.

Hi, I just have one quick question:: I DL'd and installed the Flexible Squares layout Organizer-- and for some reason the day view is not the same as in the caps you provided. It's the same old plain view.
I think this actually is my fault; for some reason the "external stylesheet" thing wasn't working so I just copied and pasted the CSS coding straight into the "Custom Stylesheet" box under Custom Options >> Custom CSS and edited it there. Is there any way to fix the day view? Everything else works beautifully. Thanks.

Hai! I have a pretty good question to ask. Well, I think its good. Rofl. x3
[/lame]
Anywaaaays.
So, by you saying these are templates, theses are basically like stylesheets?
If so, am I aloud to add graphics(ie. backgrounds, headers), font changes, ect to it, than share? Like, in commnitys. For other people to use? *rambles*
Because I'm just awful at coding, but I guess pretty decent with photoshop. :p
Of course I'll credit, because like heck am I no jocker. Them people can rot in god knows where.
Haha.
That was pretty much my question. c;
If you already answered this before, and I didnt catch it, Im really sorry for wasting your time. Im pretty stupid. ;D
