This layout is basically a tweak on a previously released layout: Central. But I was using it a lot so I figured I might as well release it! Blackletter is an extremely basic one-column layout that features a fairly flexible header scheme.
Instructions
- Go to your Customize page.
- Under "Select a New Theme", type "Blanket" in the Search box.
- Find "Peach" (by
sforzinda) and click Apply Theme
- Click the button that says Customize Your Theme.
- Click Custom CSS on the left. Uncheck use layout's stylesheets! It should look like this!
- Copy and paste the following into the custom stylesheet box and click "Save Changes":

Customizing the header
This layout was designed with a simple-to-customize header component. The default size of the header is 650 x 200 pixels, but you can tweak the CSS to other dimensions.
To change the header, find these lines of code (hint: they're at the very top for easy editing) and replace the url in red with the url of the image you want to use! You can also delete the line altogether if you don't want to use a header background; it looks a bit like this.
#header {
margin: 1em auto 2em;
text-align: center;
height: 200px;
width: 650px;
background:url(http://spoony.valiantknife.org/dwidth/blacklettered/background.png);
}
