I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I'm still seeing the extra thick line at the bottom at css.buffistas.net. Oh, wait, if I log in I see the fix. Looks good.

This is neat! Thanks ita and Jon!

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

The gray line of doom still shows up at the css site for me, by the way.

Okay, weird, becaus I sure don't have it.

If I increase the padding number, there'll be less blank space?

Wait, I thought you wanted space between the lines so there wouldn't be the weirdness.

It's perfectly possible I need to go back to sleep and re-attempt this morning.

Perkins -- Can you explain better EXACTLY where you'd like less blank space? A post is made up of many parts.

The stylesheet lives here: [link]

Uh, so -- would I copy the entire stylesheet into my "Edit personal CSS" and then....try to change stuff?

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

I think I've got it now Jon. Just needed some more tinkering.

Okay, weird, becaus I sure don't have it.

It's gone for me now too, I think-- refreshing didn't do it, but signing on on a different computer did.

No need to copy over the whole thing. The original stylesheet always gets used, but anything you put in your personal stylesheet will override what's in the original.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Everyone's getting the turbo css course. Kewl.
Ya! Although, right now, my head is like "huh?". Slowly ideas are budding of small custimizations, that it seems CSS could do for me. I'll wait until the tranfer hub-bub calms down. Y'all need sleep. Good job Jon & Ita!!

(btw, the grey line is at the bottom for me, and it doesn't bother me at all.)

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Jon, I'm not sure if it's the same blank space the perkins is talking about, but the space between the end of a post and the dividing rule below it has gone from around 20px to about 30px. And if you look at omnis's post above, it's about 40px. (I'm looking at www.buffistas.net for comparison.)

I think I've divined most of the stuff in the CSS code, except -- what does "calloutbox" refer to? I keep changing the font size, but then when I look at what I've done, nothing seems to have a changed size.

calloutbox refers to the yellow boxes on the left.
