Nature is Green - S2 Smooth Sailing Layout

[alliana07]

After working with Flexible Squares for quite awhile, I finally ventured into new territory. Namely, Smooth Sailing! After much much experimentation (quite a lot of it rather awful), I've finally come up with something I like. And here it is:

oh, i really really like this! it's so calming and fresh and green :). since it'll be fall soon, can you imagine making a more fall-like version of this?

[alliana07]

That's a REALLY good idea! Maybe I'll make a fall version and then a winter version too. Thanks for the suggestion. :D

[coffeejunkii]

oh yay! i'm so glad you like the idea because i didn't want to make it sound imposing. i'd love to use the fall version on my lj :)

it is so pretty. It'd be neat if you did one in every color of the rainbow in addition to the seasons! :D

Awesome! I love the colors!

[alliana07]

Yay, thanks! I love green. It, along with pink, is a favourite colour of mine. :)

Wow, that's beautiful! I think I'm going to use this soon. :) Excellent work!

[alliana07]

Thanks!

Is there a way to have links for getting previous entries? I can put a link in manually but I think that would only make it go back one page... (like 20 entries back) I don't know if that makes sense... :/

By the way, the calendar view has white numbers too. :)

Sometimes I think no matter how many times I look over my codes, something will always be wrong.

Anyways, I figured out that the links for "previous entries" and such are THERE, I just forgot to change the colors so they'd show up. So. Find where it says:

.entryLinkbar {
font-family: ;
font-size: 11px;
color: #ffffff;
text-align: right;
padding: 4px 0px 4px 0px;
}

And change it to:

.entryLinkbar {
font-family: ;
font-size: 11px;
color: #959595;
text-align: right;
padding: 4px 0px 4px 0px;
}

Basically the same thing happened with the calender text too. You just have to change the font color. *le sigh* Thanks for pointing it all out! I'm fixing it in the codes above.

This is lovely, and now my new layout. Thank you so much for making this!

One note, all comment text is now white. How do I fix this?

[melfinatheblue]

Figured it out.

/*OTHER PAGES*/

/* COMMENT PAGE */

.commentHolder {
color: #ffffff; probably should be light grey not white if you want readable comments. Otherwise awesome.

[alliana07]

Oh yeah, that'd be because I didn't code for custom comments. Thanks for reminding me! I'm going to go fix it now.
