This is a generic journal theme that requires no real knowledge of CSS. If you'd like to use this journal template, follow the directions below.

NOTE: The image files for this template are all under 2kb so they load fast & I have them hosted on a server that allows high bandwidth...so you do not need to move these images to your own host (unless you want to.)

Directions:

1. Click the "Download" Link & copy the CSS code.
2. Copy & paste the CSS code into your journal (this is for subscribers only.) The code should be pasted into the "CSS" box located at the bottom of your journal. If you want your journal to look like the one in the first picture, the following steps are not necessary.
3. If you wish to add any of the headers or boxes pictured above, use the following codes. Copy & Paste these codes in your journal header, body, or footer (wherever you want them to show up):

Butterfly
Header Code:
INSTERT TITLE HERE - this will be the white text in the header.


Box Code:
INSTERT TITLE HERE - this will be the white text in the header.

INSERT CONTENT HERE - anything you put here will go inside the box.

INSTERT TITLE HERE - this will be the white text in the header.

Hey thanks very much for the CSS template. I'm a total newb concerning markup language so I really appreciate the simple design and easy-to-understand instructions. Plus, I like the DA color scheme as it blends in nicely with the rest of the page.

Can you put an image in the text box under the header it is connected to?
I tried and the image overlapped the header..
Is there a trick?

katat0nik In reply to YakuraShima [2008-06-04 09:33:51 +0000 UTC]

I think if you add this line: z-index: 1;
to the header code it will make the header appear on top of the text box I think... hehe. I am having trouble remembering CSS right now but hopefully it will work!

katat0nik In reply to SusantheMartian [2008-03-27 00:06:48 +0000 UTC]

Hi!
To change the color of the paw print, click here [link] and download the image files, then open the "journal icons.psd" file in photoshop. F
ind the paw print layer and make it visible. You'll see it says "color overlay" underneath it - double click "color overlay" and a window will pop up that has a small colored box on it. Double click the colored box and choose any color you want, click "ok" to save, and the color of your paw print will be the color you chose

Then... upload your paw print image somewhere on the web, like on photobucket. After that, add this code to your journal CSS:

div.pawprint {
height: 23px;
width: 40px;
background-image: url(http://YOUR PAW PRINT URL);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: top left;
}


Make sure you put the URL for your paw print image in the code where specified.
After doing all this, you can add a paw print to your journal by typing the following code in your journal where you want the paw print to show up:



Have fun!

This is a really great layout. So many of them are too complicated/cluttered and this doesn't have that.

billsabub [2006-10-10 04:48:16 +0000 UTC]

The best I've seen so far.

I really enjoy the fact that it blends in so well with the standard dA background. Much different than some of the garish displays I've seen.

Thank you so much for providing the code and the help. I actually found it useful and I even learned a bit (just a little) about CSS, which I don't have time for.

You've got me curious now. I really don't have time to fiddle with the CSS, but now I want to.

sonicalpha [2006-10-09 19:08:39 +0000 UTC]

I really like this, especially in "dA" colours, as it doesn't stand out too much (like some of the really bad CSS themes do)

I'll have to change my journal later to see how it looks on my page

if we want to put a box in our own template, like without the star or whatever, what is the coding for that?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

katat0nik In reply to Echoes-of-the-Dead [2006-10-09 06:00:49 +0000 UTC]

A regular box with no header at all?

Put this in your CSS code:

div.box {
border: 1px #92A399 solid;
padding: 10px;
}

Then in your html, put this:

put whatever you want to be in the box here

alright thanks...what about putting a different colour for the background? i messed around with it for a bit but it kept turning the whole thing that colour

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

katat0nik In reply to Echoes-of-the-Dead [2006-10-10 20:42:26 +0000 UTC]

put this in your CSS under "div.box{"

background-color: #________;

(just fill in the blank with the color you want for the background
