COLORS for the regular theme only. there's a lot. feel free to edit them as you wish! header bg, navmenu bg, body text, links + links hover bg: #333333 links hover, header text, navmenu text: #B7C97F header and navmenu text drop shadow: #121A21 everything else drop shadow: #9E9E9E 5. as usual, comment pages are not stylized. 6. profitt???? credit. please credit pastries somewhere and/or leave credit in the css!

This is stunning!

[cirque]

This is really good, I like the Lakeside version... need to change my layout now haha!

[montanaharper]

Very nice. I'm using the Neutral version. Thanks!

[tropicsbear]

dkjshfkfdjghkjf yes *mems*

[thewalrus]

asdfghjklllll; love it but the navigation at the bottom kinda just...yeah

[aetherna]

Seems cool! I'll give it a try when I'm bored with my current theme. :PP

[bungalow_life]

Love this. Definitely memorying it for later.

[ukefied]

Unf, yes, using the Foliage version.

[greenisnteasy]

This is great! I'm using this excellent layout and one of your muselist layouts for my musebox, cajon.

[doneproperly]

Beautiful! I'm snagging for this journal, ty ♥

[alesserequalist]

All the codes are "by the beech." You may wanna change that.

[tofindthesun]

they're actually different, i just forget to label them with the individual theme names. u_u

[alesserequalist]

Ok. XP My bad.

[touchablyalive]

Lovely layout! Very smooth and elegant. I'm using it on my journal - I've done some modifications, if that's all right with you? Some of the CSS was bothering me so I changed it. You've still got all your credits intact, though.

[chimney]

i'm fine with that! :>

[touchablyalive]

Fabulous :D

_{Next up: tackle the necessary CSS mods/additions for matching comment pages... ;)}

[hlagol]

This is really beautiful, and I love that you've embraced what seems to be DW's new signature: readable font sizes.

Just really beautiful, with awesome attention to detail.

[indiscreet]

Absolutely in love with this. Hands down my favorite DW-specific layout I've yet seen... though perhaps that's only because I haven't yet seen all of your work!

[overlordkitty]

beautiful! definately using lakeside for the holidays possibly into the breech for the rest of the year.

[causticly]

Hi! I looove this layout and am currently using it (lakeside) for this RP journal. But I was wondering if there's a way to fix the comment page? The comments, when posted, are centered with a different font (I have no idea what font, honestly).

As shown here:


I would really like to be able to have the text alignment on the left, like it normally would be, but I have no idea where in the coding it is (I've tried looking and changing a few things I thought it might be, to no avail). Any help would be very, very greatly appreciated!

[tofindthesun]

ahh shit i forgot to say, the comment pages aren't stylized. >: sorry!

[causticly]

Aah, okie dokie then! Thank you! :D

[reijamira]

Wow this is awesome. I like it a lot! Will put this to my memories and credit when using. Thanks for sharing! It's appreciated.

[starsandgutters]

This is a lovely theme, and I just installed the Lakeside version-- only, the navigation bar on the bottom doesn't fill the whole screen, it's all shifted to the right. I don't think it's a screen res issue, because it shows up full-width when I go on your blog!

Do you know how I can fix that? :

[chimney]

commenting to say wow that is a really weird error, and your modules are all out of whack too o_o; gonna do some fidgeting to find out what's going on!

do you have it installed as blanket? that might be a cause. the navigation seems to be #secondary instead of #tertiary as it should be for blanket

[starsandgutters]

Oh for-- I feel so dumb now. No, it wasn't the right theme.

(In my defense, when I searched "blanket", a whole page full of blanket themes came up, so I assumed they were all blanket... and instead I randomly picked the only one who was TITLED "A Cozy Blanket" but wasn't actually blanket. *facepalm*)

It seems to be fixed now! :D The navigation, at least. I'm not sure what you meant about the modules being out of wack ^^;;

[chimney]

--ROFL fjalkj worst luck

oh, by modules i meant the thing that should've contained your userprofile, tags, page summary etc etc because this is what i saw

[starsandgutters]

Right! asdflk XD

Oof, yeah, that happened one of the first times I tried it, then it seemed to have got back to "normal". Either way, I'm glad it's fixed now. Eee, it's so pretty. :D

Btw, I might as well ask - I know you generally don't do comment pages styles, and I wondered if it's just a personal preference or that you don't have time. :o It would be lovely to have the comments as pretty as the blog. ;u;

[chimney]

i would love to do custom comment pages one day, and i did it once! for in space. and then decided never again because

1) i already forget to code things besides the recent entries page, sobs
2) i get quite lazy after the main pages are coded
3) rp + GW2 mmorpgs

i don't have dreamweaver anymore either which was already laggy enough on my computer, so coding is harder. and i have homework and rp and basically not enough time to vegetate while mindlessly killing mobs |D; i do plan to try comment pages again one day.... one day... /stares into the distance

[starsandgutters]

Oh, I totally understand. Schoolwork and especially rp are huuuuge time burners. That's okay. ^^

I wonder if you used any kind of tutorial to do the comment styling in the other theme? If you did, could you maybe please link me to it? I'd like to try it... someday. /also stares into distance >_>;;

If not, that's fine! :D

[chimney]

ffffff i am self taught, so, no i don't have a tutorial to link to ahaha...

for the most part though, i'm on chrome so i can right click + inspect (firefox should have firebug, and seamonkey has its own magical thing) to find out what the element is named (.comment-box, .comment-content or whatever it's called), then ctrl+f to find it in the code. if it's not there then i add it somewhere. and then i do magic things and make it pretty. :>

[starsandgutters]

Wow, I applaud you even more then! :o /applauds

All right, I'll try and do that... and if I do do it on your blog, I'll make sure to credit! :> Thanks you.

[tt_ginny]

Is there a way to enlarge the icon circles? Small icons make me sad. :(

[lordof]

chimney here, lazy again

for that! ctrl + f .entry .userpic img and add width: 100px; height: 100px;
then find .entry .userpic and modify the margin so that it reads margin: 0 0 0 -180px;

[tt_ginny]

Oh my goodness! You're awesome. Thank you!

[countable]

thank you ^^

[neliq]

You make gorgeous layouts. I'm using this, thank you for sharing.

[knavishness]

Will be using your layout. Again. This time for this guy. This is pretty much my favorite layout and you've really made it easy to customize, which I give you extra thanks for.

[couldvebeenworse]

Lovely! Using this and making a few modifications. Thank you for a wonderful layout!

[mistee]

Hi! I really love this layout, but I was wondering if there's a way to remove the footer/sidebar part? Thank you! :)

[unreadability]

Using this layout for this journal. Absolutely love it, thanks!

[arcanines]

ahh, this layout is beautiful. will be using this <3

i don't know if i should expect a reply, but my layout has gone wonky. the bottom navigation bar doesn't span the entire page :( also not sure how to fix all the tags and posts not being bullet pointed and not in the comma style?

[arcanines]

nevermind i fixed it! i /thought/ i was using blanket theme but i wasn't. thank you so much for this layout though, it's absolutely amazing!
