(LAYOUT 012-014 →) conglomeration of gray grey storm clouds.

Apr 24, 2011 18:54

Well. So. I basically had a party with gray-scale and black/white color schemes. I don't really see the point of posting them all separately when they are all the same flexible sheets style essentially; just with different backgrounds, and organizations. I think I'm going to try for darker color schemes following this post. Also, eh, I've been lackadaisical when it comes to icons, I know, but I'm kind of taking a break from them for right now. Paint.NET is not cooperating currently, and GIMP isn't in a much better position. Oh how I long for Photoshop CS5 right about now. Or at least CS4. But that is another story, I suppose. Finally, I changed the community layout! It looks more professional, or something like that. Or maybe I just like more graaaaaay. XD





FLEXIBLE SQUARES HODGEPODGE.

3 GRAY GREY LAYOUTS:
01 Cross Reverberation (( live | image ))
02 Vintage Sprawl (( live | image ))
03 Shadows Cast on Sand (( live | image ))

COMPATIBLE BROWSERS*:
Firefox, Google Chrome, Safari, IE
*with minimal appearance differences

Ironically enough, thunderstorms and tornadoes are moving into my area, again, just in time for my exciting gray-scaled designs. Happy Easter (Resurrection Day!!), and enjoy this ridiculously packed post of flexible squares codes.

LAYOUT DETAILS:
The sidebar and visible elements for each of the above layouts differ between each other:
1) Cross Reverb -> Only visible 'sideber' element is Text/Blurb box. The text should be centered and simple. The shorter it is, the better it looks, imo. -> Userpic position should be set to RIGHT. -> There is a header on this layout, obviously. The dimensions of the image are 600 x 400 pixels. I don't recommend changing the image, but if you want to replace it CTRL+F .headerimage { and replace the background image url with the desired image.
2) Vintage Sprawl -> Only visible 'sidebar' element is Text/Blurb box. The text should be centered. -> Userpic position should be set to LEFT. -> The title and subtitle of your journal will appear at the top of the page.
3) Shadows Cast on Sand -> Userpic position should be set to RIGHT. -> In the preview, the links list and page summary are visible, however the blurb box can be enabled. -> The calendar element in the 'sidebar' is disabled.

additional:

Saving/Hosting: All tiny icons should be SAVED SAVED SAVED to your own hardrive and reuploaded onto an image hosting site, in case mine go out. This is not required, obviously, just suggested.
Editing: Feel free to change/edit the backgrounds, color scheme, etc.
Just don't change the framework CSS and be sure to have a link back to this community or my journal as credit somewhere, anywhere on your livejournal.
Questions: Check out the FAQ and see if your question is answered. If not, leave a comment, and I'll do my best to help with any problems.
