Transitions Tutorial
Makes the link fade and there should be like a good transition, this has to do with css (<style>) :)
So if you want fading links, look for a:link and a:hover, in the css, and under the whole coding of them, which ends with a }, before that, place this code (simple coding and no need to replace quotation marks, it’s css, don’t need to worry about that)
transition:0.5s ease-out;
-webkit-transition: 0.5s ease-out;
-moz-transition: 0.5s ease-out;
-o-transition: 0.5s ease-out;
So all the transition, -moz-transition depends on all the browser you are using. So if you are using mozilla firefox, the -moz-transition should work on the firefox browser,
Webkit is like Safari
O is for Opera
For the 0.5s thingy is the time they take to fade, smaller number like 0.3s means it will fade duration: 0.3 seconds, you can change this to like 1, 2 or with decimals :)
There should be other things too! So for hover thingies, I suggest you put the same codings in both the class/div and the hover of it. :)
Hope I made myself clear :)

How do I make a network badge? You use photoshop to create it or any other editing software program, and save it as a .png file and upload it in like tinypic? and link it like this: <a href=“http://yournetwork.tumblr.com”><img src=“IMG URL HERE” title=“Your Network Name”></a>
How do I make network themes? Well you will need to look for the themes here
How do I size down my network icon? Simple! Just size down like a regular image:
<img src=“EXAMPLE YOUR NETWORK BADGE IMAGE URL HERE” width=“HOW BIG YOU WANT IT TO BE”>
How do I make a network? Create a secondary blog, and insert your theme, put the links in there, and link it to their blogs, and start inviting members, go to the right side and there are like a drop down menu for all the blogs you own / co-own, and click your network blog you just made, and click members, make sure the person you invite sends their email, so enter an email address and click enter, so there will be either they check their mail, or you can just T.A them the link so they can join instantly!
Okay, I bet I made myself clear for every network question okay? :) No more network questions
Noticed that you want to overlap something but you just can’t? z-index will help you!
In your css, like for example, I’m making my butterfly inside the cage by making the cage overlapping the butterfly, but this happens:
Using z-index helps! :D
For example, I need an exact position for my butterfly, I’ll use like:
#butterfly{
position: fixed; /** – IF YOU DON’T WANT IT FLOAT, CHANGE TO ABSOLUTE – **/
top: 90px; /** – HOW MANY PIXELS IT MOVES AWAY FROM THE TOP – **/
left: 90px; /** – HOW MANY PIXELS IT MOVES AWAY FROM THE LEFT – **/
z-index: ?;
}
Now, the z-index can be filled in any random number, like 1, it’s bigger than 0, If you want the butterfly to be behind the cage, make the z-index of the cage bigger, observe:
#butterfly{
position: fixed; /** – IF YOU DON’T WANT IT FLOAT, CHANGE TO ABSOLUTE – **/
top: 90px; /** – HOW MANY PIXELS IT MOVES AWAY FROM THE TOP – **/
left: 90px; /** – HOW MANY PIXELS IT MOVES AWAY FROM THE LEFT – **/
z-index: 1;
}
#cage{
position: fixed; /** – IF YOU DON’T WANT IT FLOAT, CHANGE TO ABSOLUTE – **/
top: 90px; /** – HOW MANY PIXELS IT MOVES AWAY FROM THE TOP – **/
left: 90px; /** – HOW MANY PIXELS IT MOVES AWAY FROM THE LEFT – **/
z-index: 2;
}
This is the result:
See? If the z-index of the cage is bigger than the butterfly’s z-index, it’ll overlap the butterfly, so it’ll look like the butterfly is in the cage :) The z-index could also be changed into like bigger number, but it’ll be even more difficult, it could be changed to big numbers like 9999 :P but it depends on you. :)
For me, I customized my dashboard until it looks like this:
Go click your stylish icon and click managed installed styles
Then click write new style
Basically, you will want a background for your dashboard, so in the box given, write this:
body{
background: #fff url('BACKGROUNDIMAGEHERE');
background-attachment: fixed;
}
and paste it into the big box, if you want a cursor, replace the code with:
body{
background: #fff url('BACKGROUNDIMAGEHERE');
background-attachment: fixed;
cursor: url('CURSORURL'), crosshair;
}
You can change crosshair into anything! (Like pointer, auto, progress)
You can also modify it more! Like… Font-families, font-size, color, and anything else you can put in your body{ part in the css!
Next is the applying part.
Below the big box, there is this applies to thing.. Then there is a drop down menu, Click add, then there will be two, now in each drop down menu, put URLs starting with.
Then change the top and the left, leave the position alone!! what they mean by negative is to make it not show the whole thing (BAD ENGLISH LOL). To change the height if you put too much stuffs in it. Look for:
Then change the height, if you want it even wider, change the width, but if you want the Updates tab (the text that you are going to hover to get the tab to show up) to also change, look for this:
If necessary, make the width the same with the #updates to get it aligned together :D
okay so we know like none of you guys read these things, but were just assuring you keep the credit and don't steal anything from the theme. i mean like just preview the code and rip things off there. the themes here are 100% made by us ourselves. but anyways feel free to contact us if there are sneaky thieves. but it doesn't mean you have to view everyone's source. and besides, if you are taking a theme please message us that you are taking the theme or like the post. but if you really are reading this well done you have reached the end, don't click the agree or the disagree button if you are reading bc it will not redirect you there, instead click on the percentage in the paragraph (:
