	Question: Does anyone have a CDJ directory they want customized? Mine's rather... short so I'm not going to bother. (Reply to this)

	I am having some issues with the formatting of a community I run. The community xgeneration has the same layout code as xgene only the picture and background colors have been changed. Only.. It obviously isn't formatting the same. Help would be great! My email is branchuchan AT gmail DOT com or my AIM is Branchuchan if you want to grab me personally. Thanks! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	On one the page source says the colspan is 2 while the other is 1. Is it in a table or is there a td in front of it on your user info? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I use my profile as the main place that I keep track and display all of my current characters, but my HTML experience is limited. I saw the CDJ thing you made, but I'm looking for something a little less involved. You can take a look at what I have here: http://fallingpoodles.insanejournal.com/profile Basically, a place to post their main icon, journal name, the mod journal, actual name and a link to their profile. I'm not sure how to make it look better. Maybe you could help. :) (Reply to this) (Thread)

I think that's super cute! Its very slender yes, but sleek! I really like it. I'm not sure what else you would want to make it look better, unless you want to change link colors. Basically if you do <a href="gameurl"><font color="COLOR">CharacterName</font></a> then it will get rid of the gold links. If you're looking for something less involved than what you have, I'm not sure you can find anything much simpler other than a list. I have something like that (here) for my PSL PlayedBy list. I think you should totally post it to the comm if you want to share! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Just to reply to this since I've already spoken to you and you ended up doing it yourself because you are clearly brilliant: In efforts to help other people who want to accomplish the same with a different table layout, I'm going to edit the table cheat sheet here or something as it's a bit confusing. I also added in the CSS background on the cheat sheet at your suggestion. <3 TY BB. YOU ARE BRILL. (Reply to this) (Parent)

1) How in pluperfect hell does this cast list work (i.e. similar code would be nice)? Click on a few faces and you'll see what I mean. 2) Does anyone know of any SUCCESSFUL strategies for approaching someone who fails to credit for borrowed work (e.g. icons, layout, code)? For example, this same game is using (hotlinking even) several icons I have made without credit. Another example, I recall a mod in one of my games discovering that another game had word-for-word copied the premise, rules, etc. and that confrontation ended in flames. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Re: Two Things vanya_elda 2009-05-04 11:39 pm UTC (link)
	NEVERMIND ON #1. I figured it out. It has to do with anchors and <p> tags with a height restriction and the overflow set to "hidden". (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hi there! I'm having some problems with the comments section on my characters page. I was wondering if you could help me? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	chaperoned 2009-05-20 03:47 pm UTC (link)
	Easy. You left a DIV open (or maybe a TD/TR). Just make sure they're all closed and that'll fix the problem. Just send me a message if you're still having issues. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

pseudolife 2009-07-30 05:18 pm UTC (link)

So I don't have an ad to post (well, I do, but that's not why I'm here) but I have another request. My game has just reached about 50 characters. The current Cast List looks very cluttered and messy, even though I have minimal information on it. I have a list of Available Characters with links on the ones that are taken, bolded for holds, etc etc. And then I have the Cast List which has icons, character names, and pb names for each character. I'm not sure how to make that more aesthetically pleasing. (I also have a player contact list, so there's no need to include that info anywhere else.) I've debated using a PB List only. I thought about separating the characters on the cast page by gender (but it still looks cluttered) or by series since it's a cross-over game (except that we have a couple of characters already who are cross-genre and I suspect we'll get more). So I'm really desperate for ideas. I've looked around at all the ads communities to try and find something that I could mimic, but none of them have the expanse of characters that I have. So, anyone have any ideas or suggestions? I'm sorry, I know that was a lot to read. I'm just trying to explain myself fully. (Reply to this) (Thread)

So, I am floundering here. I am pretty handy with HTML and can make my own tables and all, but I am getting a wee frustrated with my FAQ page. I made it, it looks okay, but to add questions, to work it out so that it's user friendly is driving me batty. It's not. Adding in questions and answers, making them all categorized, it will make me crazy. Does anyone have any layouts or ideas for better FAQ pages? (Reply to this) (Thread)

I seem to have gotten this game rolling as far as getting some holds and seeing it advertised by not just me on pbads. My concern is getting apps. I have one, I know it's early, but I'm so afraid I wont even get the five I'd like to open the place. Is it better to say you'll open at a specific date and time to get people rolling or does it usually not make a difference either way? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Question! I'm a total noob when it comes to messing with these journals. I wanted to know how I could take the contents of my top post and place it in my header instead of my obligatory 100x100 icon. Coding would be nice; I can tinker with that. A tutorial would be even greater! ;D (Reply to this) (Thread)

	QUESTION → Like the chalkboard image on your userinfo page, d'you know if there's a customizable code somewhere that simulates a full newspaper article? I know there's the clipping from the post in your main journal, but I need a full article...I could just do it the ol' boring embed image into text sorta thing, but I was just curious if you knew of a template?
