Description
A quick reference for the structure of the new gruze-style journals (on customisable user pages; see this journal entry for a quick explanation of when deviantART generates gruze-style journals). While I am an Informatics student, and thus used to drawing diagrams, I'm not as good at making it clear and readable as `thespook (whose Journal Structure reference of course inspired this), but it should give you an idea of how the new custom-user-page journals are structured. Though, to be honest, you'll probably get more out of this if you're already familiar with HTML and CSS (and especially if you're already familiar with sleek Journal CSS).

Further references (stolen from `thespook , so they mostly only cover old sleek-style Journal CSS, but there are still good entry points for beginners among them):
HTML dog's beginner's guide to CSS.
My Journal CSS editor — lets you edit your journal's HTML and CSS in real time. Supports both sleek and gruze journals.
`tobyf 's Journal CSS generator (great for total beginners looking for something basic to start with — fill out the fields and it gives you the CSS). Only supports sleek journals.
¢nyssi 's CSS Rundown + Template — top stuff, takes you on a guided tour of her stylesheet.
Not-So-Basic Journal Template by =ghostlove .
For even more resources be sure to check out the sticky thread in the programming forum too — [link] .
This saved search for CSS tutorials in the Resources gallery.
And lastly, this journal entry sketches out the differences between sleek and gruze journals.
