Layout: "Abstractia"

[chiming]

This layout is now official! /noisemaker


Here are some options you should change to get it back to what you were using before!

• Help! Everything is so big! No problem, just tweak your base font size. 9pt or 11px is what I used while developing and you may prefer that size now!


• Help! I liked the usernames better teeny! Go to your custom CSS and throw this in:
  .entry .poster, .comment .poster { font-size: .85em; } .entry .poster img, .comment .poster img { width: 10px; height: 10px; }


• How do I change the position of the username/userpic? Go here! There are a couple of options here, pick what you think looks best. :3 (The username is called the entry poster, the userpic is called the icon.)
  
  Someone has already requested a tweak to the poster-on-the-right-in-the-header option, so go to your custom CSS and throw this in if you want it too This has been patched into the main style! I also fixed a bug where the lists had extra margin when inside blockquotes, which is reeeeaally not necessary.

I tried doing this theme in green, but my sidebar ended up on the left over the entries, somehow. Any idea how that might have happened?

[chiming]

I'll investigate!

[eviljy]

Wow... now I've a serious problem! I love *all* the colour variations even the pink and that is very rare for me. Damn you! :P

I really like the background. Most backgrounds that continue to be visible behind the text make things hard to read for me or annoying to look at for any length of time but this one is just enough to loosen things up a bit without demanding too much attention. Well done. :)

I'll probably try to get a rotation going between the variations and will certainly (and gladly) give you credit - credit well deserved.

Thanks a bunch for this!

Especially for making it so easy to follow. I'm crap at editing styles and themes and you made this super easy and awesome to do!

This is really pretty - it lags a lot scrolling on my work computer, but I'll see if it's better at home. :)

(The "Green" one is now Ocean Floor, although you may also want to check out Radioactive, a greener green.)

[silverr]

And I chose blue, credit in my profile as well!

ETA: I did find an odd thing - I left the sidebar on the right, but used the code to have userpics on the right ( in posts and comments).

This works ok for posts, but in comments the text isn't wrapping, it's being placed below.

I thought maybe I messed up the copypasta, but I just redid it all from step 1 and it's still wonky. ~ Do I need to use Sidebar Left for the comment wrap bit to work?

[chiming]

I'm not sure but I know it is fixed in the version I submitted officially. I did many things inefficiently in this version. :( so at this point I think you would do best to sit tight and wait for that. Sorry for any inconvenience!

[dickgrayson]

Thank you! :D

I've just changed to the green version of this and I have to say it looks GREAT! Thank you so much :-) (Credit is coming up on my userpage.)

[chiming]

Thank you! Just so you know, proceedings to make it an official layout are underway. (And then there will be an even GREENER green.)

My journal is now using the theme layer version. (At 1em, just to display that, but if you set the font to 9pt in the options you'll have the same look as now, albeit with a few small tweaks to margin/padding in entries and the way usernames display on reading pages.) (Which you will also have control over!)

--So yes! Wish me luck. c: I'd say we're about 85% there right now. So excited!

[acquescritte]

Thank you very much, it's really nice (all of them xD).

These are gorgeous! Using at least one of them for a community of mine :) thank you so much!

[chiming]

I hope you enjoy! It's going to be an official layout pretty soon, with three more colors. :D (Sorry, that was my personal journal; this is my 'business' one!)

[mark]

I really like this style. Thank you so much for making it!
