Dreamscapes

So spire/daemon gave me permission to recode their layouts for DW's code base, as they stopped making custom layouts a few years back, and I love their work. So this is the first of probably several sets of recodes + color themes.

Planet Caravan

Cheerfully (default)

Starry Sky

Sunrise

The background image in Starry Sky is my own work in Photoshop. The default is one-column, but it looks equally nice in all the other modes, too.

Bubblegum

Raindrop

Grape Jelly

Hot Chocolate with Marshmallows

Mint Chocolate Chip

Couldn't resist a few themes for this super-cute layout. Don't ask me how most of them ended up with food names, I don't either. Grape Jelly and Bubblegum both use an embedded Google Webfont.

...AKA: Tonals - You Can't Stop At Just One.

Decided I wanted a rainbow of tonals, so here's red, orange, yellow, and violet, to go with the blue and green I had in the last post (indigo, as much as I love it, is not quite visually distinct enough from blue and violet to get a layout)

Pumpkin Pie

Sunshine

Violets

Notes: As with the last set, soliciting feedback on any contrast problems - I had to do a lot of fiddling with Sunshine in particular to get it to look okay to my eyes. Also soliciting alternate names for Blood, as I know that's potentially off=putting to people. Big restriction is that it be something semi-nature-based like the others, and convey that nice jewel-tone red (I contemplated fruit names for a while but didn't come up with any that fit well)

After much fighting with code and 2am debates about image placement options (a great big thank you to the members of #dw for having that with me), this thing is ready for submission

Layout: Heads Up
Author: momijizukamori
Layout info: Source
Additional info: CSS needs clean-up and condensing - I started it based on Paletteable, which inherits from Tabula Rasa, and partway through realized I needed to redo Print::page to get the results I wanted, so it's got the core TR stylesheet and the custom one. But I'll probably be doing the patching myself on this one again *g*

So it seemed from some of the discussion on other layout comms that users wanted something like LJ's Expressive/Mixit styles, which for those unfamiliar with them, are fixed width and have pretty header images.

Now, I know we don't do fixed-width-by-default here, but I decided I'd try my hand at something that could be set between fluid and fixed width very easily, and supported header images above the header text, as well as behind it. The base once again is branchandroot's Paletteable because apparently it's my go-to for a clean starter code *g*

Source is here, and you can see it live here, though the back-end stuff is where the magic (and thus the feedback-needed is).

Stuff I plan to do for sure:
-make the sidebar background extend the length of the page (and in fact thought I had, up until, uh, right now)
-Style the month headers on archive-page-by-year to look like the subject headers on entries.

Stuff I am waffling about:
-right now the image input for the header is the same as the background header-image, with a toggle between the two. I'm not sure if it should stay like that, or if there should be an option to have header background /and/ a banner-header.
-Not sure what other CSS tweaks I should make because... I am not always an ideas person *g*

Theme name/layout: Marginless
Author: momijizukamori
Layout info: Source Code / Preview with a Paletteable color theme
Image info: N/A
Additional info (for layouts): Tagging this as draft, because I have a handful of known issues I'm trying to work out:

-I can't figure out the property for custom circle colors. Ideally I'd like the userpic border to change to that when it's set for a user.
-Not sure how to be the modules to wrap on one-column view - right now, they display in one huuuge column, even if more than one can fit across the width.
-I don't know how to set more than one author in the code! This is a modified version of branchandroot's Paletteable base.
-This name is boring :P
