layout update: Dreamwidth

[samantilles]

So, I soo wasted loads of time today I should have been working on my volunteer work updating my samantilles@DW layout in Stargate goodness. But I think it looks not too shabby (though some tweaking will be necessary shortly!)

*happeh/satisfied sigh*

Well, I'd comment over there, but it won't let me use OpenID to comment.

So... is Dreamwidth easier to skin than LJ? I still haven't figured out LJ's bizarreness... and I'm fluent in CSS!

[samantilles]

it wasn't easier (as they don't even have many skins to play with) but I managed to find the core CSS in a layout level layer and just edit that. I'm sure new developments will change things though.

Where did you find the CSS, Sam? Oh, and I like the colors in your DW page. That should probably worry you. ;)

Hmmm. Maybe I'll just stay here. I can't upload my entries.

It doesn't worry me!!! There's plenty of perty blue to keep me happy!!! I consider it a blending of our two extremes into a suitable medium!

As to where I found the CSS, I went into the "Layout" layer in advanced customization area, copied and made a new Layout level layer, and modified the CSS there. I'm sure theres a way that you can override it in a theme layer or such, but honestly, I was getting a bit annoyed since there are zero theme layers right now on DW. I'm a pretty decent code manipulator, and thats how I mutilate code into doing what I want!! *muahahaha*
