Ne LJ Nav Menus

Jul 20, 2015 10:57

I'm wondering if there is a way to edit the new Nav Menu's? Just colors would be good. I don't want to alter them fundamentally but just the hideous colors that are clashing with my LJs.

I had come up with some coding on my own which worked all of a weekend and then my LJ went haywire...

You ultimately can edit the new navbar, but I'd personally recommend to wait at least until LJ stops changing things around so much. They still want to add the filter function back to the old friends page with the next update. In the meantime they still seem to implement a lot of minor changes continually. I modified some code, too, but LJ changed the source code overnight, screwing up my whole layout, just like yours. So chances are that will happen again and again if you change the navbar at the moment (checking just now I detected two other new changes in the source code compared to less than two days ago ( ... )

I can't help it - these layouts are sort of my babies and I want the best for them (and I want people to enjoy my layouts). Although I guess if I become frustrated enough, I'll get to the point where I give up trying to make them work.

No, I get what you mean. Absolutely. And let me just say, I love your layouts. It shows that you treat them like your babies, because they are just brilliant. Sometimes when I see one of your ideas to use CSS in a particular creative way for a 'special effect' it just makes me smile, because as a fellow (definitely not half as advanced, though) layout maker I appreciate all the hard work there. I've set up several of your layouts on friends' journals and just reading your code is a pleasure. *ahem* I better stop talking now! ;)

Well, then my rambling was good for something! ;) No, seriously, I remember that Jim/Molly-cherry/IOU layout (whatever it's really called) with the dropdown menu completely made of CSS. I think I literally squeed when I saw it, because that's such a clever use of CSS!
