Tutorial Suggestion Box

[sireesanwar.livejournal.com]

I want to tell you how I come up with a tutorial. Someone out there asks me a question and it dawns on me that while I know what they are looking for, some of you out there may not. So a tutorial is born. If there is something you wish to know how to do comment and let me know. I'll send you to a tutorial I've already made or another tutorial will be born.

I'm also willing to hear any suggestions for making a layout do something specific (i.e. rounded userpics). Of course, I can't promise everything is possible on LJ but I can see what I can do to implement those idea in the future.

Do you have a tumblr? Do you do tumblr themes? I have a couple different tumblrs all with different themes. Once in a while I make small changes to the themes I use. Sometimes I get stuck trying to fix something the way I want it but not knowing how. Right now all my tumblrs are fine. However, I often think how awesome it would be if you could help me out the next time I get stuck on something in tumblr land.

Will you let me know if you start working with tumblr coding in the future?
A lot of LJ people left for tumblr.

I do have a tumblr account but have never messed with it because it seemed more complicated than LJ with less ability to make it look how I want (which I find important). I have been planning on looking around there and should I decided to make customizations I'll post links from here to where they are posted at Tumblr.

Thanks for the suggestion.

So tumblr wouldn't let me into my account. They've officially locked me out because they say it isn't my account. Should something change I will look into layouts.

I could still take a look at your coding and your tumblr page if you need help. You'd just have to share your coding and a link to your page.

Sorry it's taken me so long to reply to your comment! I don't check LJ very often anymore.

Maybe your tumblr account got hijacked somehow. Maybe you logged in to a bogus login page. I have heard of that happening before. Sorry about that. You should start a new account!

This is my current tumblr page!

I wanted your help with my sidebar. I wanted all the links to show all the time despite the flag box taking up so much space. And the flag box keeps getting bigger as I get new clicks from new countries. the box expands to include each new flag.

I want to keep the sidebar fixed and not scroll down able. I am thinking I may be able to solve my problem with a navigation page. So it would be one link and when you click on that link all my links show up in a new page. They are super neat!

I haven't had time to try the navigation page yet. Real life is really busy right now. Although I do want it fixed.

Thank you for your offer but I don't want to cause you to waste your time trying to fix it when the navigation page might fix it easily. If the navigation page doesn't work for me I will let you know and hopefully you can help me!

My recommendation is to add an overflow to your CSS for the sidebar. Keep it fixed and a certain height but add
overflow-x: hidden; overflow-y: auto;

This will make your sidebar fixed at a certain height but scroll inside the sidebar for everything that is making it bigger.
