Component Help

Y'all are so helpful here, thank you!

I was hunting on the clock component tutorial and left a comment about putting a countdown/countup script on LJ. I know that java cannot be used, PHP cannot be used either. I don't know if a PHP include can be used though. Anyone tried that?

I posted this this easy-as-pie tutorial over at my public journal, _ducksinarow, yesterday. It will show you how to achieve a flat look for a layout with square components [tutorial].

It might turn out to look stupid in the end, but I'm wondering if there's a way to pull the friends list as seen in the userinfo and somehow put it into a component. I'm picturing a scrolling box with the standard userlinks (ex: davesawyer) stacked on top of one another and would probably come alphabetically. This would be an alternative to creating a scrolling component and having to type out each userlink with a break tag over and over. And this would change in real time as friends were added or unfriended. This way people could scroll through easily and see who my friends were and click through to their info or journal.

I think I could build the component itself, I just wouldn't know what livejournal-y things to include (i.e. "print friends list" or whatever).

Hope it hasn't been asked before. But I figured anything is a nice break from, "how do I get rid of this white line?" :p

Hi I have a question... I have been looking all over for a code to make a background to my components and chrissykauai has one and I was wondering if it is possible if someone can help me to get one for my lj... I would really appreciate it. I just need the code... I tried the other day in the edit and costumization and almost lost my layout completely...

Hi!

I really need help about this question and sorry if it looks too silly, but i tell you that i first made sure to read the tutorials section and i can't find any too specific to solve my problem.

here it's my question:

I don't wanna change at all the current theme of my journal (component bluetiful) i only wanna add a background at the top, but course with the "normal customization center" it's impossible add the margin-top, so i went to the "advanced cc" and made a new theme, now what's the next that should i make???, i wanna keep everything as it currently looks but with the difference of the bckground at the top, i know with the function print_stylesheet() { i can do this but i'm not sure where i have to paste it, i first pasted it in the "User" text box and it didn't reported any error but when i went to my journal it was all messed up, and all the structure of the layout was gone.

So you can help me please??

Thanks in advanced
