More Stylish Styles

[ninetydegrees]

All my previous styles have been updated to work with the new skin so check for updates if you have them installed.
I've also made a few more for little things which didn't work for me:

-- Offwhite Background: I don't know if it used to be the default background or the one of the skin I used but this is what I had and my eyes missed it.

-- Redesign Boxes: the inset thing really doesn't work for me so this will make the boxes look like they did before (popping out instead of sunken), with sharper and darker borders to better separate elements.

-- Redesign Header: the right side of the header (icon, 'post new' and 'log out') looks weird for me so this swaps things around: the two buttons go up with the other buttons in the bar and look like them (same style, same font size), the icon goes below the bar and is shrunk to 75%.

Edit: comments here and there have made me edit this style to make it a little smarter. It gives you additional choices now such as the possibility to hide your personal icon entirely and/or the AO3 logo, and to move content up a bit to make up for the lost space.

If you notice any issue, please let me know.

I won't bring any of my styles over on AO3 because I don't think the interface is easy to use but, if it works better for you, don't hesitate to install these using AO3's interface. Just copy/paste the code, I guess.

Thank you so much for the Redesign Right Navigation! It looks so much better that way :)

You're most welcome! Thanks for taking the time to comment. :)

Definitely using the redesign right navigation, though I altered it to take the icon out entirely. For some reason small versions of icons are one of those ubiquitous tiny niggles for me. Thanks for putting it up!

And thanks for updating the icon-to-text blurb. That one has becoming almost crucial to me since installing. XD

You're most welcome! Ha! I nearly did that and would have if 'my home' was on the right (it's probably possible to move it there but I was lazy).

Good to know. I see they've made one but everything's on one line so I thought my little style would still be useful. ;)

Thanks for the header style! I'm using it to tide me over until I can write a skin from scratch.

Glad I could help and good luck with the skin! BTW your current layout is gorgeous. Ever thought about submitting it at dreamscapes? ;)

Thanks! And, yes, I've been meaning to, but I still haven't gotten around to cleaning up my code after... oh, sheesh, I don't know how long I've had it. It's on my December to-do list, though.
