i been looking allover google to find out how to design a tumblr layout.
Yes i know about the template, the css thats in the tumblr layout. but how do i DESIGN it?
like is it more like a div? i make tables etc.
or is it just a Banner. then the rest are are css.
please help me.

On the Customize page, click on 'Use custom HTML' under the Theme tab. You should find your theme's full codes on there. Try to flesh it out. It basically works like any regular web page except the Tumblr elements are put up using specific variables. I recommend looking through this page. It should give you an idea on how to work with Tumblr pages.

i know about that.
im kinda slow. so i guess that's why i can't figure it out.
but like on photoshop. how am i suppose to design it????
i want it like a div, nav, section for my info,followers,
how do i do it?

Don't ask me, it's your layout! You come up with the design/concept yourself. Once it's done, that's when you start organizing the content.

im confussed!
haha, im saying . first i never designed
a layout except myspace.
can i design it into a div???

Of course. You can move things around by putting the variables inside DIVs and giving them positioning attributes. You just need to use the correct ones according to which elements you want to put up. For example, if I wanted to put up a DIV that contains links of users I'm following, I'd use something like this:


Again, refer to this page for a full list of variables.

alright so my layout don't have to be like this

http://smokeweedeveryday.tumblr.com/

it could be like a Div like i want?

but wouldnt the posts make it stretch?

You can put the posts in a scrolling DIV if you wanted, it's all up to you.

so the layout can be setup like that?

IT CAN BE SET UP HOWEVER YOU WANT IT TO.

The 'Ads' section up top isn't necessary though. Tumblr doesn't put up advertisements on their pages, as far as I know. But ^that is fine.

Yea i have Adsense.
but ok thanx.

you can close this
