Alright. This is sort of a complicated problem, I think. I'm somewhat new to lj, I mean I've had the account for a while but I never really got into the whole design of it until recently.

The basic problem is when I try to make a new layout for my profile, the code doesn't work and it just comes out as a default page with the color theme and yeah that would be about it. I tried changing the Available Styles but that didn't seem to help any. It's probably, or rather more likely, a problem with the codes but I can't seem to find out what it is.

This is the code I have at the moment, but it isn't the code I want. This is just a code I made by fooling around with my friends code for her old layout. It's nothing like what she has so don't try to say I stole it from her because I barely did.



Now as great as that is, it isn't what I want it to look like. I'm sure many of you are aware of Amy's Live Journal Help Webpage. I used that to make this code, but this one doesn't seem to work in my page (even when I change my available style to generator, which is the style I chose to make the page in).



*I would like to note that in the preview, my code boxes had a bunch of </ br> in it, if they appear when I submit this than I apologize but I am unaware of how I may get rid of them*

My LiveJournal is ElectricRemedy.

I'd suggest using this to start off with, as a skeleton of sorts, and then using that page as a reference for what does what. Codes from scratch hardly ever work if you're not used to the platform.
Also, it takes awhile to get it. Basic HTML/CSS knowladge would help you greatly, as well as knowing div layers.
