style_systemHello fellow style addicts!
I recently moved in from LJ and I'm in the process of recreating my journal layout at DW. I'm using the Brittle layout and trial/error my way through the design. ;) Most things I managed to work out by myself, but there are a few points I can't seem to find a solution for. Hopefully someone will be able to point me in the right direction. Additionally, I'm not sure what tags would be appropriate for this post. I'd be relieved, if the mods could handle that. ^^;
1.
My header looks like this. What I'd like to have is instead of the journal name/page title to show a simple link menu I can freely configure, such as:
2.
I'd like to move "Previous 50" to the right and to change the font size. So far I only managed to find out how to change the color. I'd like to do the same on the bottom of the page. (Currently the profile module sits there as well. I disabled it for now, because my first plan had been to put it in the header, which didn't work and the entire thing would have been too big for the top of my page anyway.) --- SOLVED!
3.
Is there a way to (a) change the font size of user names independently from the font size for date/time? Also, is there a way to (b) place the user names below their icons in such a way that they behave "intelligently", i.e. have line breaks, if the name length exceeds a certain amount of letters? This is mainly interesting for communities when you have "userblabla posted in communityblabla". I found out how to change the positioning in general, but I assume the user name would have to be withing the icon layer to be confined to it and for the entry text to not overlap it, and I couldn't figure out how to do that or how to add another box below the icon in which I could put the user name. --- Part (a) solved!
Thank you in advance for any help you can offer me! (Also: please ignore the white page background, I'll be adding a background image once everything sits on its right place.)

profile | circles | calendar | link a | link b
I found in this lovely community already how to get rid of the page title etc. What I don't know is how I could put links there instead, and perhaps my profile icon in a smaller size. --- Partially solved!2.

Date: 2012-04-08 06:04 pm (UTC)I was in the middle of editing the comment when you replied, so I'll just leave this here. I think the code that would work on your journal is actually this, instead of what I listed before:
ul.module-list li:before {
content: url('URL OF GIF'); }
ul.module-list li:first-child:before {
content: none; }
Also, you may want to add some padding so there'd be some space between the gif and the link, which could be done by adding a line like this one in red:
ul.module-list li:before {content: url('URL OF GIF');
padding-right: 10px; }
You might have to play with the number to get it to look the way you want.
