Description
My first tutorial... I hope it is useful.Critics or ideas, please send me a note then
And if you create a CSS with this, please, please show me
the CSS helper can be found here
Important
I found two mistakes:
for the top it's .journaltop instead of box and
a:hover instead of a.hover
I'm very sorry for that. If you find more mistakes, please note me, I'm going to fix that!

your tutorial was extremely useful for me 
thank you very much for your work!
and I have a question too: how can I remove or modify the color of the "Journal entry:" text that appears before the date?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's defined with ".journaltop". The font-size should be 0px, then the little line with the time and so on disappears (doesn't really work for IE) and then, to get the time and so on again :
.journaltop span{ font-size: 12px;}
Tataaaaaaaaa
sorry for the late answer

Hi! Just a quick question, do you know how to make the 'journal entry...' text a different colour?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You mean the general header, the big title or the small one that's in front of the date?

Can I just ask- is there any way to change font color? I have a purple background that I really like but the standard font colour doesn't show up.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hm...
okay... open your journal and check the css code.
"color" changes the font color. No "background-color" or whatever you may find, just "color". If you delete it, the presetting will show up. But be careful. If it says ".a{ color:#xxx}" it's about the links. Try it, and use this side : [link] there you can just test it. If it doesn't worK at all just send me your complete css code and I will cahnge it for you

Ok i'm really new at this so i might ask a lot of questions sorry. Ok first question, are you making this in PS? I'm also confused with the CSS helper thing. I got my subscription today so can you expect
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The graphics can be made with Photoshop but the script basically is text. So you can open words or the helper. The CSS helper is pretty useful cause you can see all the changes immediatly. That heelps you to understand which value changes what. I hope that answered the first questions, if you got more or wanna know more, feel free to note me or message me again, I will help!

Thanks for this!! I'm workong on my journal CSS now...but i can't figure out how to move the "Journal Entry" text. Do you know how? I saw mention of it earlier, but i'm not sure if you've figured anythign about it. I'd rather be able to move it than delete it if it isn't too much. ^^
