layout: plurk, “gothic”

- Go to the "Customize Profile" tab.
- The preview theme was designed around these settings, but you can experiment to find the header bar you like best:
- Optional: Install the Plurk Jailbreak chrome plugin! Without this plugin some parts of the default plurk code (e.g. the header) can't be edited and overwritten.
- Copy and paste the following into the custom stylesheet box and click "Save and Update":
Changing the Timeline Background
To change the timeline background, just upload an image somewhere and find this line of code (it's right at the beginning):
#timeline_holder {
background: url(http://spoony.valiantknife.org/plurk/gothic/timelinebg.png);
}
Replace with your own image url and background stylings. The image should have a height of at least 386px if you don't want it to repeat. Here's an example:
#timeline_holder {
background: url(http://spoony.valiantknife.org/plurk/gothic/timelinea.png) no-repeat #9cbfd3;
}
Changing Dash Header Font
Do you not like blackletter fonts as much as I do? You can change the "Stats", "Friends", and "Fans" header text pretty easily. I put this bit at the top too:
#plurker_info h2, #plurk-dashboard h2 {
color: #000 !important;
text-align: center;
background: transparent !important;
font: 32px UnifrakturMaguntia, cursive;
margin-bottom: 10px;
I've highlighted the most straightforward stuff to change and I have a quick rundown on how to style text with CSS.
Colors Used (for easy replacing)
#e7f0fc · title, selection, profile border, &c
#f6eea0 · profile link background
#c4a87d · in-plurk links
#fddee0 · various hover styles
Feel free to modify this however you like, and follow me at vigils for more coding. This layout uses icons by FamFamFam.
