Layout: Shif (Bloggish)
First layout is the community's own! \o/ Designed for S2 Bloggish, so it's cross-compatible on both LJ and IJ. :3 Click on the preview for a larger size!

Instructions for IJ:

1. Under the customise section, select the Bloggish layout. Make sure your style system is set to S2.
2. On the same page, set the theme to none. This is important!
3. On the custom options page, select two column (sidebar on left) as your layout type.
4. In the custom CSS box, put in the CSS code below.

Code:

/* Coded by karanguni on LJ/IJ. To be used with the Bloggish layout with NO SET THEME. Cross-journal platform codes for good fun! */

/* tinyicons used to replace IJ/LJ's usual user/comm icons. Replace the urls if you want to use your own.
The first two ("http://andmore.../1931icon.gif") are for usericons, the last ("http://and.../1931comm.gif") 
for communities. */

Notes:

Tiny icons by Excentric@LJ and Loveicon@LJ.

The tinyicons are hosted on my own server, so you might want to save them just in case they come offline.

Questions more than welcome! :D A header-image version will come soon!

For IE 5/6 users: the layout may truncate because IE has a silly way of dealing with things - to fix, change the #beta { width: 80%; } to #beta { width: 70%;} - it'll make the entries column smaller, but it'll help to avoid the truncation without messing Firefox users up. :D Alternatively, upgrade to IE7. Or Firefox. Mmm, Firefox.

Credit would be really nice in the userinfo. :D

	Hi! I just wanted to start by saying I love this layout. It's exaaaactly what I was looking for, so thanks for sharing it on freelayouts. I keep running into a slight problem, though, and if you could help me it would be fantastic. As you can see here, the two columns are showing up, but the second is somehow underneath the first instead of side-by-side. (Reply to this) (Thread)

Thanks for the comment, first up!

I think you're on a 800x600 resolution, right? I'm on a larger one, but if I resize my window I think I see your problem. I think the issue's being caused by the calendar - now you've got two options! :D

1. I could try and recode the calendar for you so that it resizes properly or
2. You could just get rid of the calendar altogether, if you don't need it.

Which would you like?

	stillrecovering 2008-06-26 09:20 am UTC (link)
	Oh, I don't need the calendar! I'll try offing it and see what happens. Thanks for the quick response. :D (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	karanguni 2008-06-26 09:22 am UTC (link)
	:D No problem! Just a small niggle - if you could sneak a credit to the community in somewhere, that'd be really cool? :D Thanks! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	stillrecovering 2008-06-26 09:27 am UTC (link)
	...Okay. And exactly how do I get rid of the calendar? Here I thought there'd be an obvious option for that in the custom section. fails No, of course! I just wanted to make sure it fit before I decided to keep it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	karanguni 2008-06-26 09:28 am UTC (link)
	Cool! 8D The calendar goes away if you stick this in with the rest of the code: .module-calendar { display:none; } :D (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	stillrecovering 2008-06-26 10:09 am UTC (link)
	Haha oh, Gosh. The calendar's gone, but it's still not lining up properly. Also I checked my screen resolution and it's at the maximum. So I don't think this is fixable. Thanks for trying to help, though. I appreciate it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	karanguni 2008-06-26 10:11 am UTC (link)
	D: If you could give me a screenshot, I could probably help! I'm not too good at imagining what's on other screens. But if it's too much trouble, nevermind then! :D (Reply to this) (Parent)

	karanguni 2008-06-26 10:22 am UTC (link)
	Hi! Hope I'm not bothering you, but I found out the problem - it's an IE bug, and I've altered the code so that now everything should work a-okay on your browser! It's been updated in the text box up there, so if you feel like trying again, it should go just fine! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	stillrecovering 2008-06-26 10:46 am UTC (link)
	Oh, wow. THANKS. :D I was just getting the screenshot together. This is actually my work computer, so it took a bit. Also, I'm at work. >_> But now it's perfect. You're a wizard. Thanks again! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	karanguni 2008-06-26 10:47 am UTC (link)
	Glad to have helped! And it's always good to try and make these things cross-compatible. :D Enjoy! (Reply to this) (Parent)
