Doctor Who Layout: Donna = Shipper

[maniacalshen]

I have a new layout to share. Brighter than my usual ones and my first attempt at Smooth Sailing. I call it, "Donna = Shipper." Here's the thumbnail:

I've nicked it (if you don't mind) - this is the first time I've ever got a header to work! Love the image!

I was just wondering how I would go about altering it slightly (changing the fonts to Arial and the font colour ('cause black on dark grey is hard to read)?

[maniacalshen]

Glad you like it. :) As to changing fonts, just look for any place I have

[emmyangua]

Hmm...mine looks exactly like yours and I have 'No' chosen as both options on the dropdown.

I tried changing trebuchet to arial, but it has no affect.

[maniacalshen]

You can't just change trebuchet to arial. The way that command works is that it tries the font that's listed first, then, if the viewer's browser doesn't have it, it tries the second font. So, yours should say,

font-family: arial;

That should be safe; who doesn't have arial? ;)

As to the rest of the problems... I'm not sure what to do. I won't ask you to trust me with your info so I can just go in and fix it, though I wouldn't mind doing so if you were comfortable with it. You could change your password before and after or what have you. As it is, you could screenshot the custom css menu or copy your code here, and I can troubleshoot it that way.

It's truly bizarre it doesn't like my code; I copied and pasted it into the .css directly from my own journal, and it works for bubbles, too! I'm really sorry for the trouble. :(

Okay, I'm off to work, but I promise I'll reply to any further questions when I get back!
