Please be sure to tell me: What layout you are using?
For instructions on installing your codes,
click here. I put in the codes but the layout doesn't look right. I can see the colors, but not the header. What's wrong?
Double check that you have changed your layout theme to Flexible Squares. The colors might show up under another theme, but the code will not work correctly.
How do I change my header?
In all of my layouts (so far) I use one header image code (with changed dimensions and links, of course). If you want to put in your own header, copy the code below and fill in the information in all caps.
.headerimage {
position: relative;
width: YOUR HEADER WIDTHpx;
height: YOUR HEADER HEIGHTpx;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
margin-bottom: 0px;
background-image: url("YOUR HEADER IMAGE LINK - MUST BE A DIRECT LINK");
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
To get rid of your header altogether, just cut out that^ part of the code.
I uploaded your header to my own host/changed my header but now it's too small/doesn't fit the space right. What do I do?
Check your options in your Photobucket (or other host site) account. Sometimes there is a limit to the size of your upload, and if your picture exceeds that size the photo will be minimized while it's being uploaded. On Photobucket you can control this by changing your album settings.
I changed my header and now the content of the page isn't lined up with the header. What do I do?
You must change the width under #content. Normally the number ends in 66. For example, if your header image is 500px, the content will be 466px. See the code below to know exactly what needs to be changed.
#content
{
width: SET ACCORDINGLYpx;
margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;
background-color: #ffffff;
border-width: 1px;
border-style: solid;
border-color: #ffffff;
padding: 15px;
}
I uploaded the codes and some of the things on my sidebar (link list, tags) aren't showing up. What do I do?
Go to Customize Journal Theme > Sidebar (this is just above Links List and Custom CSS). Change the Yes/No options to show the items you want to be shown. You can also customize your tags by choosing List or Cloud.
