Welcome to the EXTENDED version of the rules for premade layouts. If you're here by accident or error
click here to return to the community or click
here to return to livejournal.
All layouts were made by myself (hawtxjuly)and were inspired by various styles which you may have seen around the lj and other blogger sites. All of my layouts were created to show a sense of creativity within myself as well as please the eye. I made most of the layouts for personal and were retired and put up for this community to use but alot of them were made specifically for this site. Make sure to read the rest of the rules before asking questions or emailing me. None of the layouts contained here are "default layouts" meaning that i did not just slap a background and some funky hovers onto the journal. If thats what you're looking for, my affilites are listed in the community and they might be able to help you. I took some serious time on these babies and a minimal ammount of html and override knowledge will need to be had by you but i give you all the resources needed to get you through the process including a step by step guide with screenshots and troubleshooting. I've added alot of FAQ to the info so make sure to browse the below info ^_^

To those who have already joined, this my dears is where i need you to pay attention. Please read the step by step guide before you download a layout and then follow the steps before asking any questions. At the bottom of the page it will link back to the community for troubleshooting if you're having ANY problems with setting up the layout or getting it to work right. Anything and everything that might happen to annoy you will be listed. I have also added this to the memories for quick reference.
Can i change or edit the layout?
Like i said before i work UBER hard on these layouts. They are not simplified default layouts with a few overrides and a background. I did some full on coding with graphics, icons, and the whole sha-bang. IF you LOVE the layout but hate a certain aspect of the layout i will allow you to change it if it does not involve editing the graphics in any way. If you edit the coding you MUST leave the credits in tact for the design. You can replace headers/backgrounds if you want to but like i said credit must be kept and you MUST let me know. If you use my layouts as a guide to create your own layout, CREDIT must be kept for the inspiration of your layout.
Anything smaller than this such as links, fonts, borders etc. is a minor detail and will not be considered a modification of the layout. Enjoy my layouts ♥
So the answer would be YES and NO. Here's how i see it: Downloading one of my layouts is like buying a car, in this particular analagy you're buying a honda. You can add a system and customize the hell out of it but in the end ITS STILL A HONDA..
What if still need help?
If your question wasnt answered here in the userinfo or is related to problems downloading or installing please see the trouble shooting post which is also in the memories. If you still need help after that, Don't worry the mods will help you. Comment somewhere in the community and someone will answer you as soon as we can. Before commenting always make sure you've tried EVERYTHING and have read The rules and troubleshooting area. We get kind of annoyed after a while but will not refuse to help those who need it. <3 If someone isn't available or you're question is ignored all of our contact info is inside the community.
Do you guys take requests?
No. I do not make layouts upon request but i do update the community often with brand new layouts. I also take suggestions so let me know what you want to see and how i can improve the community. NO DRAMA though. I don't like bickering and un educated squables. Lets keep things civil and layout related. kthx.
How do i give credit?
Along with commenting in the community when you download a layout you must leave a link to this community in your userinfo and credit me in your layout. If you don't have a place to do so promote me once in your journal when your layout is up.
