Template #15: The Wind Cries Mary
Please read the directions in this entry as well as the Community FAQ and Template FAQ before asking questions.


Details
Template Name:The Wind Cries Mary
Account Types:all account levels (Basic, Plus, Paid, etc.) but the ads in Plus might make it look hideous
Layout Style: S2 Bloggish
Tested In:Firefox 2, Opera 9, Internet Explorer 6, and Internet Explorer 7 on Windows XP
Screen Resolutions:1024x768 and up
Notes:If your journal title / subtitle are too long, they'll wrap onto a second line and possibly create a gap between the background images at the top of the sidebar. The bottom of the blue tab in the menu doesn't show up properly in Internet Explorer 6 and 7 for whatever reason. Background tile by 24-7 Media; brushes by Jason Gaylor.

Choose a Page SetupChoose "2 Column (sidebar on right)". Hit the "Customize Selected Theme" button.
Choose "Custom CSS" from the menu on the left:Select the following:
  • Use layout's "Base Weblog" stylesheet: choose "Yes" from the menu.

The Code
Copy and paste this into the aforementioned "custom stylesheet" box on the "Custom Options" tab. I have hosted the graphics on my own Photobucket account, but you are welcome and encouraged to upload them to your own image host (just remember to change the URLs in your style sheet). These are the images:


And that's pretty much it!

That is stunning!
I love it! And yay! Bloggish!

Just a question for saving the images though, is it possible for perhaps later layouts to upload a zip file of them so lazy people can download them all in one go? =D

I don't like doing zips because then I have to host them on my own domain and use up my bandwidth, whereas I have unlimited bandwidth on my Photobucket account. :)

Absolutely beautiful. I might have to change from Garden State (orange + green = WIN) to this. Maybe. ;) I love the font choices in both.

Elegant and clean, and a bit like stationery. Very me! I like the ... foliage thingey details. So I saved this post and when I am calm, and brave, I'll give a go at changing my layout.

This is gorgeous. I just switched to it from one of your previous layouts. You are the master! :) Oddly, I don't know if it's because I'm using Firefox, or what, but some of the image links you provided took me to blank pages where there was nothing to save in order for me to upload them on my own space. Like viewlinksa and viewlinksul... I uploaded all the rest though.

I'm using Firefox and they work okay for me; the graphics are only 1px tall, so you might have just overlooked them.
