Something is seriously wrong...
Okay I'm about ready to delete this blog. Yes, I know, you all LIVE for my weekly updates (ha ha ha) but this is driving me nuts. I can't get even the traditional Blogger layouts to work. Everything is all screwed up (as you can tell by the appearance of it at the moment) and I can't get it back to normal. I have tried deleting gadgets and have tried everything I can think of to straighten it out. New backgrounds, no backgrounds, everything. Does anyone have any suggestions?? I would really hate to lose everything on here by deleting it since it's sort of become a journal of sorts for our family. But it's just a mess and it's driving me crazy! Sometimes even posting is a pain because I get these weird Google code errors saying it's trying to perform some sort of "illegal" post. What the heck??? Any feedback would be much appreciated.

I tried some of the blogger help sites when I had problems with my blog and it helped!
ReplyDeleteThis same thing happened to me! I remember that the problem is ONE LITTLE BRACKET!! It's irritating for sure, but you can email the girl that runs scrap-e-blogs and ask her for help. She used to have helpers on her site, but its blocked or something. Anyways...she gets back to you really fast...she helped me figure it out and now I can't remember! But, its something really dumb and easy to fix....you just gotta know how to find it...I believe its in the 'Edit HTML' tab on your customize options. Anyways...email her. She'll help. scrap.e.blog@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteI figured it out!! After you paste the new template, there is a little bracket that looks like this } that you CAN NOT leave out. It needs to look like this :
ReplyDeletebody {
background-image:url(http://i144.photobucket.com/albums/r193/coricarpenter/redbluebg.jpg);
background-position: center;
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-attachment: fixed;
margin:0;
color:$textcolor;
font:x-small Georgia Serif;
font-size/* */:/**/small;
font-size: /**/small;
text-align: center;
}
a:link {
color:$linkcolor;
The bracket you are missing is the third line from the bottom...when you leave it out, it screws up all the alignment. Try adding it and let me know what happens. I hope this works!!!
It looks mostly fixed. YEAH!!!
