Ooh while I have you here. :P
Calendar numbers missing There are very few comments on our entries. But there are some there. However, our FUN Forum Calendar Page appears blank with NO numbers in the day squares. Why is that and can we alter the code to include them?

Header/banner rotation We would also like to create other headers (banners) and rotate them in. Meaning when someone refreshes the page the banner changes. What code would we write for that and where would we place it?

MetaData As mentioned in the original posting we would like to change the format for the metadata.

Currently it is too big and appears messy to me. (click link for example)

She placed the tags at the top of the page with the mood theme. Which we want. But, I would like the mood theme box to precede the tags.
1: How would I do that?
2: Her text is larger than I would like. How can I make the tag text smaller?

links in the headerCould I place a link for tags and memories in the header when we finally remove the previous and next entry from that area? Or ( ... )

Oh, and your black font issue - when/if you paste content into the Rich Text Editor (update page) from Microsoft Word, it brings along invisible "mark up" that only becomes visible once you switch to "html" view and see all of the code that allows your posts have things like bold text and centered alignment. That black text has a font tag around it telling LJ to make the font black and it came from Word or whatever editor you used to write the post before you pasted it into LJ's update page.

Hmm, that is odd. I NEVER use Rich Text Editor. I type my own HTML. So I wonder why it would pull that "mark up" or how it would. I do have a format for posting which I wrote which includes all the HTML to create a post (i.e. LJ cut, post titles, prewritten mod note for each post ect). I use it to create every post. It is a word doc. But where these errors occur have nothing to do with that actual format as they are appearing around text that is written and inserted/added to the format. And it seems to happen around links ( ... )

The font issue in the calendar is from this code:

.day-count a {
text-decoration: none;
color: #1F2A71;

That's a dark font. If you change it to color: #ffffff it will be white.

LOL, true.

That's something you can control here:

at the very bottom.

Sorry if these links don't work, I don't have access to those pages, I'm trying to guess what the addresses are.

Hmm, yeah the link doesn't work. But I went to Customize Journal Style and then went to the area where it says I can edit a font size.

Default Font Size for the page. 12

Font Size for the Day Counts on the Archive Page 20

But didn't I see this in the style sheet? [points below]

.day-count {
width: 50%;
text-align: center;
float: right;
font-size: 20px;

Is the 20 listed in the text line about Font Size for Day Counts the same as the one in the style sheet? And do I just fool around with the font size # until it is one that I like? 12? 14??

BTW I cannot tell you how much we appreciate your help. We've been fretting over these issues since March when my friend went silent. No contact by email or snail mail. :shrugs: So you my dear are a lifesaver here. :D
