You can call out me mother, me sister and me brother, but for Christ's sake don’t call me

Right. End of an era. After a vain month of waiting for LJ-support to get back to me about the problems with the now-unsupported style Refried Paper, I have changed my livejournal style for the first time since I started this thing at the very end of 2004. I wasted about two hours tonight trying to make the new one resemble my dear dead style as much as possible in color, font, and layout, but I didn't have the coding proficiency to make it look anything but awkward. So, scaling back, does anyone have suggestions on the following tweaks: wider margins, no underlining of links, and current music listed directly under post title? The new style appears to be called "Army Attire." It may well change again.

Huh. Okay. I'll see if I can do that without breaking it . . .

Still looking at the userpic issue, but I think I have isolated the section of code. Unfortunately, I don't see anything wrong with it.

[edit] Ignore previous comment. This is the issue where they display fine in comments, but for reasons no one understands the style appends text to identify them rather than just showing them normally?

I think what's causing that is in this cluster where it says picture_keyword. Try taking out just that section (and be ready to paste it back in) and see if that fixes it? Italics are mine for emphasis.

$alttext = $poster_name;
if((not $.poster->equals($.journal)) and ($.depth == 0)) {
$journal_name = $.journal.name;
$alttext = $alttext + " posting in $journal_name";
}
if($.metadata{"picture_keyword"} != "") {
$alttext = $alttext + ": " + $.metadata{"picture_keyword"};
}
if(defined $.userpic) {
$userpic = """""";
}

It made no perceptible difference when removed. Thank you for trying!
