December 5th entry for the CalendarProject
How To Use:
Premium membership is required!
1. Download the ZIP file by clicking the big Download button on the right -->
2. Extract from the file, open the text file, and copy all of the text.
3. In a Gallery/Favorites Folder (cannot be your main Gallery/Favorites folder), click the button called "Folder Options" or "Collection Options" in the top right hand corner.

Features: Thumb Width: All thumbs are the same exact width, and this width can easily be customized. The preview shows how the thumbs look at 180px (default). To customize this, change the pixel width in the first two lines of the code:
.tt-w, .tt-fh-tc, a.thumb.lit{width: 180px!important;}
.shadow{width:180px!important;}
Colors: The skin comes with a dark gray background that matches with any kind of deviation, but the color can easily be customized! Change the hexadecimal HTML color codes in the third and fourth lines of code:
Description color: .folderview-art .tt-fh.tt-boxed .tt-bb, .tt-w{background:#333;}
Thumb color: .folderview-art{border-right:200px solid #333;} Hidden Stuff: Print icons, feed buttons, and the "More Like This" link are hidden for a cleaner look
Lit/Journal Thumbs: Also styled to match the art thumbs
Updates
- v2.1 (Jan 7) Now up to date with dA's new gallery format; fixed width for long titles

This is a wonderful gallery skin, very easily customizable and you explain how to do it very well. Thank you for this.
However, I don't think there's an option to move the text to the right anymore, at least I'm not seeing a button to do that. Is this due to a change DA has made in the gallery layouts?

Apparently it's one of the recent changes.
Updated the code so that the description is on the left now. X.x

Isn't that so annoying? I think that's the biggest reason why I try not to get into this stuff, the rules are always changing.
I don't mean to nitpick, but now the heading hangs off. 3rdeye88.deviantart.com/galler… On your gallery its not a problem since the heading is short. Is there a quick formatting fix for that? If not then I would say its not a big issue. Maybe I just have long gallery titles.

Yep, got around to fixing it now.

It is! Thankfully journal skins don't change quite as often or as drastically as gallery skins. The last time they updated journal skins, though, they completely changed list formats, which broke all of my profile directories. That was also right after I had created five commissioned directories, which meant that I had to go back and fix them all up again.
Ooh, awkward. There should be an easy fix, I'll see what I can do.

Oh wow that would infuriate me. The nice thing about what I do with lego is its constant. They add new parts to the catalog that add new functionality, but the rules don't up and change over night. This also happens in Minecraft with Redstone circuitry and I can never wrap my head around that stuff either. I used your most recent journal skin yesterday. Two of the links changed for me and my icon was added, which was a cool feature. I had to manually change the note me and I think the profile link. The faves and gallery links changed on their own.
Now that I've used the skin I appreciate it much more. I love that you included little areas to add our own things. THat's such a lovely option. I added some links to my groups and the other sites I post my Lego creations on. This is one of the best journal skins I've used in a while. That and one made by =Nesmaty I swear there's so many talented young ladies in this community.I'm in the wrong line of Deviating apparently. Legos are fun but its a total dudefest on my account.
Alright, should I just try readding the CSS again?

This is so sleek and lovely. I love the way the art featured in this matches the colour scheme so well, and the black 'box' under each thumb is so neat.
You have a great eye for design.
