Description
User Level: AdvancedLive version for Black + Blue: [link]
This CSS totally kicked my butt. I have spent the past week working on only this thing and finally had to give up. I can't do what I want with deviantART's CSS restrictions. The CSS was supposed to have these spiffy rollover buttons...but it didn't quite work out. I was further irritated to see that the live version didn't display as the preview showed. There is supposed to be a nifty footer image, but it's not there.
Speaking of which, this is an advanced layout. Seriously.
Do you know that this was originally designed as an animated CSS with a Fella logo on a brushed silver background? The buttons were always supposed to be blue, which finally dawned on me that a mint green Fella wouldn't really match well with the design, especially when I switched to the black background. By the way, those three small blue buttons on the header were supposed to slowly fade in and out. I wasn't sure if anyone would use the animated version and I sorta kinda messed up on the buttons, which meant that I would have to redo them again. So I kept them non-animated. As I struggled with the layout, part of me wished I had made the buttons red instead.

There is this guide by `Lilyas that shows how to set up a basic journal: [link]
Although, I have included a PDF for this layout that explains all of the elements, if you want to try it out first.

Hot! Nice work.
I find that design coding never really turns out the way you first intended it to. I've started on a project that after two days of playing around with mockups (not even into coding yet) it's completely different to what I first thought it was going to be.
