Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

eta: to Perkins:: Were they there for you at css.buffistas.net?

Okay, Sean, refresh a couple times and tell me what the world looks like now.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I just went and looked there, ita, and yes, it is the same there.

I can send you a couple of screen shots, if you want.

No, that's fine. If it's the same here as it was there then it's not a bug. The second line thing is probably going to stay--the other problem can be addressed with some tweaks to your personal css file to a look you prefer.

What css.net looked like as of 9:55 tonight is what b.org should look like now--I took all the feedback I got. Trigger's been pulled.

People who had custom css at css.net are going to have to save a local copy so I can delete theirs over here and then they can recreate it. Permissions thingy.

How do I do that?

eta: I'm sorry if that's a stupid question, but I was busy at work and had no internet at home for two days, and I have no idea what is going on with the css stuff.

Our wings are not tired

Going to buffistas.org I see the board the way Sean just posted, if I go to www.buffistas.org it is working fine.

I've got everything squished to the left and in one column, too.

edit: And I haven't played with anything regarding css in ten years.

one thing that's missing for me is a link back to Buffistas Home at the bottom of the page.

Okay--there is now an "Edit personal css" link on the left hand side. Various objects onscreen have identfiers, and you can change their appearances by specifying it in your css file.

For the quotes in posts, the tag you're modifying is t cite .

My modification, for instance, looks like this:

cite {
padding: 5px 5px 5px 25px;
margin: 25px;
background: url("/images/l_quote.png") no-repeat top left;
}

If you want to change your font size, you'll be doing something like

cite {
font-size:16px
}

You can also try percentages, like 120% and see what that does for you.
