Closing the Gap between the Entry Title and a Slideshow
-
Sorry..Not only that ^, but the tabs on the sides of post pages need a drop shadow too. They look a little strange laid over a shadow.

Hey, @thesacredpath. Got the tabs to look a little better, with a toned down shadow to the content body, but they need a drop shadow too; I think. Would you mind taking a quick look at a page with a tab? Thanks!

Still would like to add a drop shadow off of the content and onto the background. Adding it again here, so you’re not searching all over

Add this to your .posted-meta rule and you can play with the values. The first is the horizontal offset, the second is the vertical and the third is the blur radius. A negative value on the first pulls the shadow to the left. You can also play with the color. Give the dark background, it could be a challenge on selecting a color.
.posted-meta { background: #00aeef none repeat scroll 0 0; border: 1px solid #00beef; box-shadow: 0 2px 4px #777; }For the content div, it already has a box shadow. Add this to your CSS and then play with it and see what works.
#content { box-shadow: 0 0 3px #dadada; } -
Next site won’t require so much coaching. Learned a lot from this one, and you guys. Learning to apply some old skills to a new media. This is artistry, without a doubt. I definitely dig me some WordPress.

Super, and glad things are now to your liking. CSS is definitely fun, and WordPress is awesome!

Yeah, I couldn’t work the posted meta shadow right. Looked nice until it hit that background, like you mentioned, then it just looked like a glow. I’m seeing the language of CSS somewhat clearly, now. I’ve been able to make quite a few changes without coaching, just based on the code I had from you (mostly) and how it worked in the platform with other code added or removed.
Like the piece of code above was missing the ending }. No panic, though. I knew what to do. Thank you for helping with my crash course in web design!!! I intend to delve MUCH deeper.

Oops, sorry about the missing closing bracket. Its’ late here in Hawaii and I should probably go to bed.
You are welcome.

Oh, and forgot to ask for a code to adjust the tab height and menu font when I got the code to increase the container / logo line height in unison. The logo looked great larger, but I had to bring it back down because of what it did to the menu’s appearance.

Don’t want you to miss that^, but I had to respond. It’s only 11:30 there, come on man! :P

Side note: The guy that hired me to do this site, is flipping out over that W load animation. He was already unhappy, with any kind of branding, but I had calmed him about it. “It’s a tiny line of text, in a subdued color. Nobody’s even going to see it.”, I said about the footer info; in the beginning. Then, this showed up. He doesn’t appreciate the fact that it’s being built in your platform, and I can’t express that in a way he’s accepting of. I may be starting over, somewhere else, or dropping it altogether.

@hudsonchemicals, sorry for your cranky client. Let me talk with our developers and see if there is a way we can hide it. I might be able to, but I never see it when the site loads. It’s on the main page slideshow, right?
-
Yeah, he’s hanging up on me today. I was hoping he wouldn’t catch it, either. Not the case. That would be cool, but a Happiness Engineer named Gracie said she was going to do that. If you think following up on it would help, then please do. Thanks. I’m at a near loss, and it’s only my second website ever. Ughhh…
-
And yes, it’s showing at the top of the content, where the slideshow eventually appears. First there’s some java script verbiage, then the W animation rolls.

I so don’t want to scrap this. Thanks for any assistance you can give, Man. You’ve been a HUGE help, through the build of this thing and it would shatter my left ventricle to walk away from it.
-
I did finally see it after clearing my cache and then switching to wi-fi here at the house instead of direct ethernet connection. I can’t get he inspector to grab onto it though when it appears.
Hang in there. The website looks awesome. You’ve done a great job on it.
-
Wow…Thanks, Man. To hear that from you is really something! I’m actually pondering the thought of opening my own Hudson Chemicals, here in Florida, at this point. LOL…Just kidding, but sheesh!
