Description If you use this, I'd love it if you dropped me a comment - even if it's just a link.

Should work fine in Firefox and IE, haven't tested on other browsers - then again there aren't any images, only CSS. I mainly only touch CSS when school assignments requires it and even then I always focus more on the graphics than the code; this was a kind of challenge for myself to make something without Photoshop. Feedback much appreciated.

A huge, huge thanks to `ginkgografix and `thespook for helpful tuts and advice.



READ BEFORE USE
(will NOT be answering questions if I've already answered it here)


To insert a title/quote like I did in the preview ("Please read..."), use div tags like these without the spaces:
< div class = "title" > Your quote/title < / div>

To insert a pagebreak (the blue line dividing the text and the thumbs), use < hr > without the spaces.

To use the thumb gallery, use this code (again, no spaces):
< div class="minigal" > :thumb####: :thumb####: :thumb####: :thumb####: ...etc< /div>
Code for this is from `thespook - I only did some slight color modifications. You can read more about the minithumbs on his journal here: [link]

To modify the menu, go to the Options tab while you're editing your journal. You'll find the menu in the Skin Header section - replace the # with your own links and name the list items approprietly.

You may add as many items you want to the menu (it's a horizontal list, by the way, that's why I call it "list items") or remove them altogether - either way it should work fine.

You may change the colors or modify the skin in any way you like.

I will probably make more color variations, so you're free to come with requests (as long as they're not "I want one exactly like this, only with the links in a different color). Also please check my gallery to make sure I haven't done that color before.
