I'm fairly new to livejournal.

i cant seem, to make the size of my entry any bigger,
without making a mess of the journal.

nor can i move the date and time.

My LJ


to person/s who help, thank you so much ^^

I think most overrides are meant to work for the journal style generator, that might be why you can't get the entries bigger? Go here:
http://www.livejournal.com/modify.bml
(while logged in) and change the journal style to 'generator'.
That's what I would do...

You should see something like this somewhere in your overrides..



Change the number values to change the size, and you can change right to left if you want. If that's not in your overrides or it looks different, put this in instead and change the numbers to make it work.

thank you both !! that helped

im trying to get somthing similar to this one.
Page


if it's no trouble, could someone tell me what
im doing wrong?

Well, since you've changed to Generator, I'll give you another set of code:



This page will help you out a LOT. It has pretty much all the basic code: http://www.journalhelp.com/generator.html

So, once you've got all that figured out, we work out the header image:



Change the bold parts obviously, but that will get both the image and the links up. Also note that you must have a website listed in your userinfo (link) for the image and links to show up.

thank you so much for all the help ^^
but i end up, with the entry still to small.
and never quite getting it right with the size.

i just dont know what im doing wrong

Here, the bold part is the only part you can change. Everything else needs to be exactly as shown.

Thank you so much !!!
now it's comming along great.

i went to the page, i followed it but i cant seem to
get the bg pic to show ?

im sorry for taking up your time -__-

Just clarifying (I shouldn't be posting this late at night): You're trying to put in a background image and it's not showing up? What code are you using?

I'm sorry for being such a bother to you.
I tried both codes, everytime nothing

*scratches head* If you aren't using Generator I'm not sure if the LASTN_WEBSITE thing will work. Hmm.. make sure you have a website specified in your profile, also.. Otherwise, only thing I can see is that you don't need the "xx-" before your link/image/linebreak tags.

oh im not using generator, i tried taking the xx off still wont show.
for some reason

Let dani rest. It's her birthday.

I think this is the problem..

You need to be using Generator for the header image to show up. You can replace the stuff on the left with a sidebar.

Also, I know I'm repeating myself, but you have to have a website in your userinfo. http://www.livejournal.com/editinfo.bml Where it says "webpage name" and "webpage URL" there must be something in those boxes.

im sorry, i botherd you on your birthday.
happy belated birthday

i put somthing in both boxes, image still wont show.
even tried putting it at the bottem, nothing

It wasn't really my birthday, he was just being silly. Don't worry about it. :P

I looked at your code again, and it looks like the image you put in there is broken - I couldn't follow the link. Also, I think you have different code in your livejournal. Would you mind posting the updated code?

oh ^^

i put another pic, yet wont show.

here's the code

Were you trying to do something like this?



Try that code, and tell me what you wanted to be different.

Thats it Thank you so much, oh my goodness thank you so much.
Im sorry i botherd you so many times.
Also thank you for taking time out to help me.

i appreciate it greatly ^^

lol You didn't bother me, but you're welcome.

Feel free to stick around and post, and let me know if this needs to be reopened (that or just start a new thread if you need help).
