You're welcome! It's almost been a year so I should check to see if anything has changed.

Thank you so much! The number of hours I've spent trying to find a list of CSS functions for the DA journal and looking at Firebug but not getting anywhere. I really don't know why DeviantART doesn't have this information in it's help section. Instead it has some useless tutorial about how to click "install journal" if you have a premium account...

So so thankful :)

Now you're confusing me... D:
Do you mean the actual journal css or this artwork specifically?
