Hi, I'm an absolute newbie with Flexible squares and CSS. I managed to make MOST of the changes I wanted myself using some guides (this community included), all doing nothing else but this for two days, but there are a few I simply have no idea what to do with (or get lost in the CSS coding).
I used
this layout with "Black and White and Red All Over" as a base on my (
lady_diavolo) free account.
Here's the list of what I would like to achieve:
1. I want to move the "Previous/EditEntry/EditTags/..." links into the entry, under "Tags:..." with a few more pixels of space between them and the actual text of the entry. NOT IN FREE FS!
2. I want the entry title/subject to link to the entry in belongs to even after clicking on it and not being displayed as simple text anymore. NOT IN FREE FS!
3. I need to get rid of the "frame" for those damn ads. SOLVED!
4. I would like for the "background and border" of the usericon when clicked on entry to have the same colors (and no username) as I see them on my journal on whole (but with usernames and comm-names being displayed on fpage - white at all times). SOLVED!
5. I would like to "Page Summary" display the list with white bullets. SOLVED!
My coding so far looks like this:
body {
background-color: #000000;
text-align: center;
color: #250000;
font-family: "Times New Roman", times new roman;
font-size: 13px;
margin: 20px 0 20px 0;
}
a, a:link, a:visited {
color: #720000;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:hover {
color: #E10000;
text-decoration: underline;
}
code, kbd, pre, tt {
font-family: monospace;
}

I'm grateful for any help. This is too high class for my simple FS CSS 101 :)
I even made the first LJ entry with comments public to help if needed.
