Well I played around with it a little more.
2 choices, save your special markup in a different file,
reload McFire and start from scratch with a header graphic 1026px wide.
save your special markup in a different file, take the CSS I was messing with and continue from there. Its at 800px wide right now. Plug in you special markup
I wonder if there is a way to change the sidebars to floats instead of section you have to mess around with the margins all the time. I will keep messing with it.
I think the absolute and relative paths and margins is what isn’t workin very well, when you try to make it into a your own theme.
PS I noticed in your template, you took categories and links off…. will you be adding them back in?
wow, that’s great. I think I’ll kill McFire and go with your markup. Much more trustworthy ;).
I’ll be able to tool around a bit more around 6:30 EST when I can get to my laptop/PSDs.
I may not use the categories, as I don’t post enough. I may want to create other separate pages (projects, links, photography).
Ok, I will finish cleaning it up and post it on my blog somewhere for you to play with this evening. π
that’s so great. thank you again for your time. i really appreciate it!
I posted the CSS on my blog.
Let me know if you need help π
having some problems… starting to look like it did before with the IE issues….ugh
I see it, the header graphic stays centered. Its a centered layout design to begin with. Here is a hack with my CSS that shifts the graphic over with the rest of the layout,
See in the Margin area: margin: 0px 500px 0px 0px; Also I positioned it static.
#rap {
position: static;
margin: 0px 500px 0px 0px;
padding: 0 0 0 0px;
text-align: left;
width: 800px;
background-color: #DCDCDC;
}
My sample is on my blog, on the right bottom under Pick a Theme. : )
