New guide: cleaning up the homepage (aka, OMG I'm actually doing something useful!)

[foxfirefey]

Customizing the Homepage: a buffet of user stylesheet CSS to hide modules on the homepage you don't want to see. Hate Writer's Block? Poof! Uncomfortable with the recent comments showing as soon as you log in? Gone!

The NLJA shorthand ad remover version, removing promotion and sponsorship laden modules:

.appwidget-qotd { display: none !important; } /* Kill Writer's Block */
.homepage-minipromo { display: none !important; } /* Kill HP Contest Promo box */
.sponsored-users { display: none !important; } /* Kill sponsored spotlight comms */
.cprod { display: none !important; } /* Kill Tip */
.homepage-insidelj { display: none !important; } /* Kill Inside LJ */
.homepage-explore { padding-bottom: 12em !important; } /* Pad bottom for Frank */
And, if you also want to also remove news:

.appwidget-officialjournals { display: none !important; } /* Kill LiveJournal News */
