About This Layout

I want to try something different and not quite as rigid as my usual style. I've seen a couple of layouts like this around the net and wanted to try one of my own. I love the way it turned out! It looks much simpler than I usually go for but the coding is a bit more complicated. I also noticed (when it was too late to fix it, of course) that the transition between the strip across the top and the page background isn't as smooth as I thought, but it's barely noticable and actually adds an unexpected effect. :D

The girl is from the Angel Dust series by Aoi Nanase and she has wings. I was originally going to make an angel layout because I'd been listening to Wind Beneath My Wings but her wings don't really show up so I changed tactics. xD I used brushes from Celestial Star, Anime Rain and Resunik and the fonts used are Century Gothic and Lucida Sans.

There's plenty of space as you scroll down, though not a lot in the width. However, I still haven't figured out how to force Firefox to repeat backgrounds in an overflowing div, so you'll have to manually edit the style sheet (where it says main { height: 1500px; }) to make the main text area longer.

Goodies!

How to use this layout

Download the zip file and extract it into whichever folder you want it (eg. My Documents). Open the index.html file and edit to your heart's content. Comments are placed in the source file to help you figure out what bits you can edit and the css is in an external file so you won't accidentally destroy the layout. It's assumed that you already know at least basic HTML. When you're done creating your website, upload it to your site host and there you have your site. :D (And no, sorry, I can't help you find a site host, free or otherwise.)

Terms of Use

To use this layout you must agree to keep all credit information intact on every single page of your website including links, however extensively you might edit it. If you can't do that for whatever reason, don't download or use the layout or any part of it at all.
