I'll probably have it on my journal for a few days if a live preview is desired.
This is such a mess, being the first thing I coded in Minimalism. If anyone wants to edit it, perfect it, or fix any of the little things that I can't be bothered to, be my guest.
I think I covered all of the bases; it's not a complex layout at all, more of a basic stylesheet for me to start on.The only things I barely touched on were the:
-comment pages
-top nav bar
-sticky note
Tested in:
-Firefox, Safari, IE, Google Chrome, though here are few minor inconsistencies.
Res:
-It doesn't look all that great in 800x600, but anything larger than that is fine.
To install:
1. Go to the
customize page and type "Minimalism" into the search box.
2. Select the theme "Aquatic Moon." (I've discovered that some others confuse the order of certain elements.)
3. Click the "
customize your theme" link, then the
Cusstom CSS" link.
4. Set both dropdown menus to NO, and leave the external stylesheet option empty.
5. Paste the code in the "Custom Stylesheet" space.
Notes:
-Tiny icons from
Pinvoke.
-Edit to your will - however, do not claim as your own after any amount of change.
-If you have a screen-res of 800, I'm willing to try to edit this to work. Just ask.
-I hid the journal title/subtitle because it's a personal quirk.
