Customize, Help anyone?

  • Hey there,
    I am ever so new to WP. I have pretty good knowlage of B2, and know how to customize it rather well. However, I have no clue how to edit WP. All I want is a simple blog, with simple tables. An example can be found at my TCG where I have Holoscan currently running, because I’m too lazy to install B2 to that portion of my site.

    If anyone could please give me some tips, pointers, etc, I would be very greatful.
    P.S You can contact me at [email protected], my name is Nichole. I am too lazy to sign up. XP

  • Well that is very good of you to say so. Thankyou but heck there is no need to go overboard, we get embarrassed easily. ??

    Alright the link to it is straycookie.org/aaliyah.php
    [Don’t mind the layout, it’s just a simple one for opening day]

    Okay………a list of questions to help us clarify stuff:
    – How attached are you to that layout ?
    – Is using tables and iframes essential or would just CSS be okay ?
    – Do you want a large header graphic, and 2 columns of roughly equal width, or can there be a variation there ?
    – There isn’t a footer, so one will need building in.
    – Is that width as wide as you want it to be ?

    -Not attached at all, I’m making a new one anyways.
    -CSS will be grand
    -I don’t know what you’re talking about ^^ Sorry
    -Okay, it was installed with WordPress..so. xD
    -Nope, let me put up the new layout

    Okay, the new layout is up. https://www.straycookie.org/aaliyah.php

    You’re obviously just doing a bit of work on the CSS positioning.

    Hm? xD I just put it up so I have to move things around, but the word press is there! ^^ Opening day is soon so I’m trying to give as much time posible. ?? Did I thank all of the members that helped me yet? ^_^

    Well Good luck and welcome.

    Hm….what you have really is a picture, and we need to try o get everything carefully aligned within those borders. Tricky to do, and even trickier (almost impossible) to guarantee how it will look to all viewers.
    That’s perfectly possible to do using CSS, the main graphic at the bottom, and a small repeating pattern the covers your content areas.
    Do you want your blog to be that size ?
    Can the content areas be bigger ? Or do you want them to be that size and for what is in the to scroll.
    Opening day ? The deadline ?

    I hope to have the opening day by Tuesday. >< Podz, if you have AIM, MSN Messenger, or Yahoo Messenger, it might be easier. ?? And I want the blog to be that size, sorry. >< And everything is aligned within’ those borders, I don’t know how to make it so it’s compatiable with all of the browsers out there, so if anybody knows how, I’ll worship and plug you forever. ^^

    Anon – I mean this in the most helpful way but with that layout with WP squeeezed into a 3 inch box you are not getting the best value from WordPress. And it is never going to be cross browser compliant. Not in a month of Sundays. Sorry.

    Mm, I’ve seen some blogs that use wordpress that have around “three inch box” xD Like https://www.posh.nu and https://www.sparkly.nu have it. ^-^ And there’s no way it can look half way decent in anything out of IE forever? Ho hum.

    sparkly looks okayish in FF, posh is broken.
