User Level: Beginner to IntermediateCompatibility: Should work in both Firefox and IE.

Warning! This layout is currently being edited to fix some problems caused by the new dA userpages.
I've seen a lot of CSS layouts here on dA, some good and others not so good, but I haven't seen a lot of utterly simplistic dA colorscheme layouts. That's where I come in. It's not the best design out there, but it was what I had wanted for my own journal.
Be sure to go over the readme before attempting to apply the CSS to a journal.
Thanks so much for all the usage and
Features:
- Minimalist design to compliment the dA layout
- Scroll box to contain images (if desired)
- Right-hand Links sidebar
- Two main header styles
- An additional smaller header that can be used more or less like a caption
- Only one graphical element (could be good or bad, depending on one's preference)
- Many of the elements are moderately easy to customize (link colors, etc.)
Mood Box:
Make the Mood Box visible by removing "display: none;" from .list { }. The new code allows it to be placed either at the top or bottom of the journal. Nothing fancy here, but at least it's not all fugly like before.
Columns:
Be sure to have more content in the main (left) column. Otherwise, the links will spill into the sections below. This was fixed in later Simple + Clean versions by using a different CSS method.

Argh. I think dA didn't recognize the new ZIP file I uploaded (not the first time the phenomenon has occurred). Should be the correct version now.
8-24-07:
- Removed "Journal Entry" text leaving date still visible.
- Fixed code so that the "Journal Entry" text will not display in IE (displays as 1px text).
- Added correct Mood Box code so that it will not be visible by default.
- Fixed Mood Box code so that it displays correctly when visible.
- The new headers are now .header1 (old header), .header2 (same as .header1, but in small-caps) and .header3 (centered small text header with expanded font).
- Scooted the "No Comments/Prev. Journal" links over to align with the rest of the journal layout.

After some careful consideration on the Creative Commons License, I have removed the Share Alike attribution. I think the general Non-Commercial license works best for everyone.
Origin:
Simple + Clean's name originates from Kingdom Heart's main theme, Simple and Clean (the English version of Hikari) by Utada Hikaru.

I was aiming for the download button, but my cursor ended up on the "request as print" button, I'm sorry!
And I've been using this one for a while, though I browse for a different journal CSS from time to time, I can't let go of this one!
