Thanks for this. I am using this-- uploaded all the components and everything. :o) I will credit you in my user info.

I installed this because it's lovely! The colors are my favorite. Thank you! And I did upload the images to my own account to save you bandwidth.

I was wondering if you could help with something. On the individual entry page, the journal title overlaps the entry title. I'm not very good with CSS--okay, beyond figuring out where to change the font size/style, I'm terrible at it. LOL. Is there a way to change the individual entry page so that the title is either the journal title or the entry title? Thanks!

Here's an example: http://logosamorbos.livejournal.com/8663.html

Unfortunately I don't think there is, that's all controlled by LiveJournal. It's a constant consternation to me when I make a layout (since I always seem to make layouts that have to have a fixed area where the title would go), but as far as I'm aware there isn't a way to fix it.

I usually let it slide with my layouts because I think most people turn off layouts for individual pages like that since so many viewers dislike making/reading comments without the default layout.

"most people turn off layouts for individual pages"

So internally, I'm the only who sees this within LiveJournal? But external visitors can see it? Huh. I didn't know that.

Oh, no sorry I meant the owner of the journal intentionally turns off custom layouts for their comments.

If you want to do that, you go to this url:
http://www.livejournal.com/customize/options.bml
And look for this section: Disable customized comment pages for your journal

But if you'd rather leave your layout on, I'm sorry for that inconvenience. I tried looking for an answer but I wasn't digging up anything useful.

Am I supposed to choose "1 column (no sidebar)" (as your directions here say) or "2 column (sidebar on the right)" (like it says on the CSS) for the page page setup? I did try them both but the layout still doesn't appear quite right to me. :( Using FF 5.0 and Chrome 12.0 in case that makes any difference.

It's a beautiful layout, though. :)

Yeah, that was the problem. :) And the 'recent entries', 'archive' et cetera were not lined up like they do in the preview. I didn't even think about ad placement affecting it. AdBlock appears to work well. :D I made the ads vertical, it works fine now. Yay! Thanks a lot. :)

Using this, with credit! I love your layouts; they're so pretty but functional.
