Where can I get the EXACT CSS code for the INove layout?
-
Like with my layout when I put the “original” code in, it looks like what it looks like now, but I want it to look like it’s supposed to where I can edit the CSS too…
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
-
On the CSS edit page, below the editor area is a link that says, “view original stylesheet.”

And could you perhaps reword your first post. I’m not entirely sure what you are saying there.

On my website I pasted the original stylesheet provided by WordPress.COM and it came up all crappy not like iNove (see my website).
I want to edit what iNove ACTUALLY looks like not this crappy version… -
CSS IS THEME SPECIFIC.
You cannot just paste it anywhere and have it magically turn whatever the site was into that theme.
CSS has to be written from scratch for each website, and you definitely CANNOT apply the CSS for a wordpress blog theme to a static website like you are trying to do.
And if you are talking about a site that is NOT hosted here at wordpress.COM, then we cannot help you with that. We can only help you with a blog that is physically hosted here at wordpress.COM.

Never mind, I’m sorry, let’s start all over here. Your site linked to your username was so messed up that I couldn’t tell it was a wordpress.COM blog.
Do not paste the entire CSS into the edit window. What you want to do is to only paste in the specific sections that you are going to change, and then only the specific declarations. If you paste the entire stylesheet into the edit window, you break all the relative URL’s that are in the stylesheet since your new stylesheet will be saved in a different location from the original.
If you paste the entire stylesheet, then you are going to have to make sure “start from scratch…” is selected and then you will have to go through the entire stylesheet and turn all the relative URL’s into absolute URL’s.

Which is why I am so frusterated because it looks so horrid… >_<
How do you change relative URL’s into absolute URL’s? -
Relative URL’s will look something like this
img/image.pngand a absolute URL would look something like this
http://s3.wordpress.com/wp-content/themes/pub/inove/img/image.pngThere is no guarantee that all the images for inove are in that img subdirectory though and that is when things can start to take a lot of time to track down. It looks like they are although I did not check all of them.
With as many icons and images as inove has, my suggestion is still to only paste the sections your are going to change, and then only the specific declarations.
Examples:
This is the body section as it is:
body { color:#555555; font-family:Verdana,"BitStream vera Sans",Helvetica,Sans-serif; font-size:12px; }If you were only going to change the color for the body section, you would only put this in the edit window and then modify the color:
body { color:#555555; } -

If you happen to come back to this thread, and if you use Firefox as a browser, I suggest getting the Firebug add on. It allows you to easily identify what parts of the layout are controlled by what parts of the CSS, and you can even try out changes in realtime to see the effect. You can then easily put those changes into the CSS edit window in wordpress.
