Description
/* Updates and shit - July 2nd, 2011 */I updated this slightly, and instead of tacking on yet another edit to this already long deviation description, I just decided to kill it all and start over.
So in a nut shell, this will make your |New|Edit| and |pencil| buttons mostly transparent until you hover. So the buttons you see on your userpage widgets will be transparent, along with the pencil button on comments to let you hide them until you hover over them.
This latest update doesn't quite look the same as the preview does here, but you get the added bonus of an animated opacity change instead of the sudden jump from translucent to opaque. Well, at least if you use Firefox 4.0 or above.
To Install
You'll need either Firefox or Chrome , and have the Stylish extension.Firefox Stylish - [link]
Chrome Stylish - [link]
Once you have those, you can open this link and do this, depending on if you use Firefox or Chrome:Firefox - Copy the entire contents of that link into a new blank style from the Stylish menu (click icon -> write new style -> blank style), give it a name, and then hit save.
Chrome - Open that link, but only copy the line starting with "/* make edit/new buttons..." till the last "}" character, but don't copy that last "}". Then in the "Applies to" area, add in a "URLs on the domain" category and write in "deviantart.com".
It's a lot more work in Chrome, but that's another reason Firefox is better
Now this applies to group pages also, so if you have privs there, you might find the small icons on things being transparent annoying, but you can fix that, sorta, if you take out some lines. I haven't been using it on those icons for very long, so I'll see if that's annoying to me. Anyway, hope you all still like this

Very useful, thank you.
The edit button always button always did seem a bit ugly to me, it seemed like you were forever in editing mode.
Just closing Chrome to install it now!

This is awesome! I just wish it could work with Safari, but I downloaded Firefox once, I can do it again.

I may change this a little bit, but I'll have to wait till they finish changing the userpages around first

Thank you

And yeah, the buttons are pretty transparent, but it's not that hard to get used to it

Amimone In reply to electricjonny [2009-01-17 18:40:39 +0000 UTC]
Not at all; just the first five minutes
And I agree it looks a lot better. I fully support that option of them only appearing after we click on the "Edit Layout" button or so. Until that happens, here is a satisfying alternative

Hehe, I'm glad you like it
I really think this is how they should make it work. Or like you said in the forum, make it only show up once you click the Edit Layout button.

Loooooove this! Those Edit buttons bug me.
I can't look at my page without zooming in on them. It looks extra cluttered because of it... 8D So thank you!
