Work Safe

I reckon it shouldn't be too hard to make a LiveJournal template to match our Intranet site at work, right down to putting the company logo at the top.

Anyone know how I can have one style for viewing at work, and another for normal use everywhere else?

I am indeed using S2. This may be my problem, though it's supposed to be able to do everything S1 could, only better.

I've created a custom template which looks very cool, but is a bit too obvious if I spend too much time browsing at work. Would like to do another template which looks a bit like our Intranet, and does things like stripping out usericons.

It may be that I have to do it a totally different way, but if I could see an example URL for a non-default style, it would be helpful.

I'm sure there must be a commuinity of S2 style developers who can tell me how to do this in an instant.

Thanks,

James

Ah, ok. Didn't realise you were on S2.

I had a very quick play around with it once, but wandered back to S1 when I couldn't even figure out how to change comment links!

It's very nice, but you kinda have to know what you're doing. If there's an S2 style that suits you, than you can customise it fairly easily.

If you don't like any of the default ones (or like them, but want something that can't be done just by changing colours), then you can create one from scratch (or, mor probably by modifying an existing one). But to do this, you really need to know HTML and a little bit of programming.

Haha! Found it out (thanks to kunzite1 on lj_style). You can us the "s2id" parameter to specify a custom S2 style. For example:
