Description
This is a
deviantART Journal Skin, finally complete from my design. The code was created by ~NellyAsher and I'm very thankful she was willing to do it. It took a while, because I'm so particular... but it's now done, and you folks can use it. I've been getting so many comments and notes of people interested in using it that I just had to come back and work with ~NellyAsher to finish it.Here are the details for the skin, NOTE - you MUST have basic knowledge of HTML, to be able to edit the sections and set things up correctly:
The media linked/hover buttons (Music, Video, Literature) must have a really short title to them. If not, it'll distort the layout. You can find where to edit these in the 'Skin header' box. Feature Header/image below top navigation and "Timeless" title at the top of the layout can be configured in the "featurebig" html tags in the 'Skin Header' box. Sub-Header and normal feature option can be displayed using the following tags:For the Sub-Header:
For the normal feature:
Note: Remove the space in between the 'v' and '>' on the closing div tag, otherwise it won't work. It wouldn't show the code of the closing div tag by leaving the space out.
Content for your journal entry should be added the same way as usual. If you have used Journal Skins that have some optional code, then you should know how to apply them correctly.
Everything that is intended to be edited is located in the 'Skin Header' box.
I think I covered everything, this is my first time submitting one of these, so if I missed something that you find in it, please, send me a note and I'll update the description with it. You can see any other credits to the original design in my gallery here: [link]

Wow, this is stunning. I am currently editing the optional features to use this skin right this moment. This should absolutely be a Daily Deviation.

Wow, this is beautiful. If I had premium, this is what I would use...

Great journal. Made a few modifications since the white text felt straining, changed to a 15% grey around #e3e3e3 , and removed the icons on top except for mail and Facebook. I only wish I can move the video icon below the content but I quickly learned that breaks everything. Overall I like it, very nice contrast the journal has on the content and featured images. I like the minimal look with the spotlight like gradients.

Thanks, and I don't mind if you alter it, as long as the credits remain. If you want to release a version of it, credit myself and the coder, that's all I ask.

Thanks, I hope it gets a DD sometime, it never has yet and it's been here for a long time. We'll see. I don't even know how to suggest DD's for my watchers/friends.

oh, suggesting a DD to the appropriate Community Volunteer (or CV as we're called now) isn't all that difficult.
you just figure out in which main gallery the deviation in question is located in (say "emoticons", "vector", "photomanipulation", "wallpaper" or anything) and then you can look up the according and current CV in charge of that gallery here. that blog can also be found on the main page of the #communityrelations group, which serves as the CVs headquarter and where you can always ask further questions about anything related to the various galleries around here.
so, basically it's all just a matter of finding the right CV and then to send him/her a note with your DD suggestion.
there are no rules in how to phrase your suggestion and every CV has his/her own preferences there (you might want to check out a CV's profile to see their "rules"), but it's always nice if you'd add a few words as to "why" you're suggesting something. along with a link (or even the thumb of the deviation) that's pretty much it.

I love the effects! It did come out nicely--the original design's been well realized.

Thank you, having it well realize the original design is due to the skill of ~NellyAsher . She's the reason this was even possible, I couldn't find anyone else to finish it, and she did a great job.

Brilliant! Definitly going to use it! I'll put a link to your profile in the entries that I use it in and I'll put one in my commenty thing. Good work!

Eh, no problem. Wish I COULD use it... No premiumness... Nice icon by the way.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Premium is ridiculously cheap. I recommend you go for it while you can, you never know, they might up the price on it. It's been so cheap ever since it first came out.

I see. I don't have much free money since I'm saving for a 3ds but i'll be sure to get it at some point!

I don't make a lot of money myself, and I save for property tax, it's the only way I can pay it... I save $200 every month out of $600 a month... the rest is spent on Car Insurance and Cell Phone service, then I usually only have $100 left, if that... depending on what I do during that month. Sometimes I go out on a date with a woman, spend some money, and that usually is the only thing I get to do with my money if that's what I do. I still manage to afford to pay for something cheap, like this and not be completely broke, and still have some money in my wallet, but not in my account.

Oh,I see... Well, at least you get by, I suppose...

~NellyAsher did a superb job! Really looks great. And you know I like the design ;D

Thanks, I appreciate it... and I'm very thankful she was able to do such a great job. I didn't think I was going to find anyone to complete it... but she did it. I spent too much time trying to get it done. But I'm glad it's done now. I'm working on another, but the one I'm working on is for myself, and along side it, I'm working on another one for a contest. As for the one for myself, I found someone willing to give that one a try, no guarantee it'll get done yet.
