Helloooo long since dead community!

I don't actually know if anyone is still reading/watching/interested or will even respond but I figured it's worth a gander.

I've been fiddling with making my own IJ sitescheme for the last day or so through modifying some of the current ones with Stylish to get a more modern aesthetic, and I have now what I'd call a sort of base prototype? As in, it works perfectly fine as-is, but there are still some areas that could do with improving aesthetics-wise to make it nicer.

The problem is, I've run up against the wall that is the limits of my knowledge of the site tags. (And bear with me here, because I'm self-taught when it comes to css so I'm not sure if that's what they're actually called.) I'm no stranger to tinkering with siteschemes using Stylish and in some cases doing a complete overhaul-- I used to do it on Dreamwidth and LJ years ago. But in both those cases I could easily find the documentation of what element was called what. But for IJ, as far as I can tell, there are a number of elements that aren't contained within the sitescheme css files. And the IJ documentation page is uh... nowhere to be found...?? It leads to a 404. That I can see, anyway. So basically I don't know how to find them, and I can't tweak something if I don't know the tag for it.

H...elp?
