Credits
I use one of [info]grrliz's layouts as a base (Holiday in Vegas @ [info]thefulcrum), with permission. Any bugs you find are due to my tweaking the code till its barely the same anymore >__<

Paste this code into your profile page:



You are free to make any changes - only requirement is to comment and credit. If you do decide to edit the CSS, you will need to upload the new code to your own server - I recommend awardspace.com

Note: If you want to remove the header/title, this is the code needed:

#banner {display:none;}

#container-inner {padding-top: 200px;}

#beta {
margin-top: -140px !important;
border: 3px double #dfdfdf !important;}

If this is for the No Image version, change the margin-top and passing-top value to 0.

You might be able to add it to the "Custom Stylesheet" textarea as an over ride but if that doesn't work, you'll need to download, edit and reupload the style sheet.

Oh and if you do try to customize it beyond the instructions listed, please refer to [info]s2bloggish and [info]s2_bloggish for help.

Wonderful Layout. I've been searching for a new layout for ages and I think I've just found what I was looking for^^ Thanks^^

I've installed this on my writing journal and it looks fabulous, thank you!!

One thing, the layout doesn't look exactly like the preview. Instead of the pen & notecard graphic on the right side of the entries, there is a little bowl with a candle in it. It still looks nice, but I just wanted to point that out in case you didn't intend it.

I've got that too, but the bowl is the image that should be at the bottom of the page - except part of it is chopped off. see?

Trying to figure out where the other images went though atm. :)

edit: interestingly, looking at this layout on my journalfen in ie rather than firefox, all the images show up including the notebook, but the transparent bits are no longer transparent!

Hi, I love the layout. I do, however, have a small problem. The sidebar keeps tucking itself under the center panel. It will briefly fix itself when I refresh or change the page size. It eventually moves back under the main entry.

Took it and will credit!

I love this layout and am currently using it, but am experiencing the same problemt as [info]openender where the left sidebar tucks itself under the main content area.

Sidebar tucks under for me too.

Best layout I've seen in a very, very long time.
Snagging and crediting! =D

Grabbed it and tweaked a little to make it wider -- hope you don't mind about the latter. Thanks for a great job!

I wanted to use this very loverly layout, but the sidebar keeps floating *underneath* the main entries. Some of it is seen, but there's about a quarter of the right part of the sidebar that keeps getting hidden. Joined a queue of folks asking for help at s2Bloggish, but wondered if you could help as the maker of the layout?

Meanwhile, I'm trying to figure it out myself! :D

Thanks muchly!

hey, thanks for the layouts, it's simply beautiful :) I'm taking (and crediting!) for my RP journal at InsaneJournal. However I just noted that the custom comment pages aren't working... the journal is this one. If you could be a doll and help me out, I'd be grateful for the rest of my life :D

Thank youu! :D
