Description
LAST UPDATED: 22-Feb-2014The long awaited super secret customization tutorial is here today!
Lot of deviants have asked me for this tutorial and so here you go. I have kept it a secret for a long time now and finally releasing it to public. Not to deny that some of them did figure this out on their own and successfully customized their own profile widgets. Kudos to those who did!
Critiques are welcome

There has been a recent restriction put into place by DA in the featured deviation widget where your journals do not show up.

It takes little time to appear. Try it after sometime and it'll be there!

Hi, thanks for this tut.
How many time the deviation takes to show up in the widget? It has been half an hour and nothing =[
I wonder if I made something wrong. bellechan.deviantart.com/journβ¦
thanks again =]

It takes some time sometimes..
It eventually shows up.

Thanks a lot Β for your time

Hi,
The journal that I'm using isn't showing up in my deviations when I choose the Featured Deviation widget > Edit this Widget > Choose a Deviation.
The journal was submitted to Journals / Art Features just as yours is here .
Any idea what's up?

It sometimes take sometime to show up in the deviation. Check it now.

Thank you very much!
It was a lot of work to make it look like a book!

Btw, this is very awkward for me to see that you have copied the exact skin codes of mine to make yours.

Gewalgon In reply to CypherVisor [2013-09-09 17:13:48 +0000 UTC]
I already tried to change more!

Gewalgon In reply to CypherVisor [2013-09-09 16:16:06 +0000 UTC]
I tried to change almost everything, so that it doesn't look like yours...
Well, I don't want to make you angry, I just don't know how I could create something like this without a "Model" or "pattern".
Do you want to change me something, or..?

CypherVisor In reply to Gewalgon [2013-09-15 13:05:49 +0000 UTC]
I was not talking about the design of your skin but the underlying code is (as I can see) is directly copied from mine. That is what I didn't like.

Gewalgon In reply to CypherVisor [2013-09-15 14:02:11 +0000 UTC]
I already tried to change also some things in the underlying code.. is that okay now?

Make the background-thiny do not work.

Sorry, I didn't get you. What?

Championx91 In reply to CypherVisor [2013-08-17 10:36:00 +0000 UTC]
To put a background behind the journal(inΒ Featured Deviation), did not work for me.

Have you use the custom bg code? cyphervisor.deviantart.com/artβ¦

CypherVisor In reply to Championx91 [2013-08-19 09:44:49 +0000 UTC]
Well, then it should work.
π: 0 β©: 1
Championx91 In reply to CypherVisor [2013-08-19 10:10:28 +0000 UTC]
it does not, the bg "takes over".
The img url puts the journal behind its self.

CypherVisor In reply to Championx91 [2013-08-19 10:29:19 +0000 UTC]
Ah! I see.
See I have mentioned in the tut that you need to put the z-index property to get the journal's stack level higher than the background.

Yay, now it works. Thank you!

A tutorial to place a journal in the widget, but not the actual tutorial on how to get the buttons and with an image that pops out when you hover over them? Hmm...

CypherVisor In reply to Forty-Fathoms [2013-08-12 11:09:16 +0000 UTC]
That is journal CSS coding which would be a completely different tutorial. Hence, it is not included here.

-but why not transparent background and height more than 300px for the journal?
π: 0 β©: 1
CypherVisor In reply to Hedeltrez [2013-08-10 15:25:54 +0000 UTC]
Because that is fixed in the profile widget for journal thumbs.
