Help with journal skin


DryBonesReborn's avatar
I'm not sure what code is showing the title of the journal that never seems to show. I want to make it brighter for the top, rather than the faded green color that's hard to read. I have no idea what it's called to adjust it. I don't know CSS sadly. Any help please? Thanks

Which journal skin?

I'd strongly suggest using a better background

I like this one. What's wrong with it?

Using a photograph with a subject in it is distracting and a bad background choice?

I see, thanks :)

Looking at the source code, I think it gets its color from dA's default style for links, so the CSS says nothing about it apparently.
You would apply any changes in the CSS for the title to the h2 a selector. For example;
h2 a {
color: #FFFFFF;
}

Now that would make it white, but replace #FFFFFF by some other HEX code to make it the colour you want :nod: If you're not sure what they are I recommend doing some research into HEX codes :D

I'm not seeing

"h2 a {
color: #FFFFFF;
}"



But "i.tri {
display:none;
}

h2 img {
display:none;
}

h2 {
font-size:28px;
font-family:Palatino;
color:#ffffff;
}

.gr-top {
border-color:#e6ede4;
}

.gr-body {
border-color:#e6ede4;
background:#000000 url([link]) no-repeat top left;
color: #FFFFFF;
padding-bottom:30px;
}

.text {
padding:15px 30px 15px 30px;
}

.gr-body a {
color:#ffffff;
text-decoration:none;
}

.gr-body a:hover {
color:#ffffff;
text-decoration:underline;
}

i.gr2 {
border-color:#e6ede4;
background:#000000;
}

i.gr3 {

}

.gr-top div.gr {

}

div.gr-box div.gr-body div.gr {

.f .a {

}

ul {

Yeah, my suggestion was to add that rather than to look for it in the existing code. But I see now :nod:

Where it says
h2 {
font-size:28px;
font-familyalatino;
color:#ffffff;
}

replace h2 by h2 a and see what happens :la:
