FAQ
>>How do I credit?
Go to manage > Info and add this code:
>>Can I change the colors/add a header/edit the overrides?
Yes, you can do minor and major changes to the overrides, as long as you don't remove the credit at the top of the overrides and also credit me on your userinfo or link back to this post anywhere in your journal.
>>How do I add a header?
To add a header, locate the .headerimage, it's normally on the Misc section right at the bottom of the overrides (that's where I place it anyway.)
it should look like this:
.headerimage {
position: top center;
width: 0px;
height: 30px;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
margin-bottom: 0 !important;
background-image: url("URLOFYOURHEADERGOESHERE");
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
1- Upload your header on a server (I recommend photobucket or imageshack) and the paste the direct URL where it says background-image.
2- Change the width and height to match with your header and you're done! Now, I recommend everyone that in case of adding a header be sure to make it the same width as the layout or it will look messed up unless you also change the width of the content.
>>How do I hide the entries icon?
To hide the icon on the recent page locate this code:
.userpic {
position: relative;
float: left;
background-color:transparent;
padding: 5px;
margin: 10px;
z-index: 15;
border-width: 0px;
border-color: #cccccc;
border-style: solid;
}
And replace it for this:
.userpic {
display:none;
}
