Having a problem with Switchy template...

[sharpshoota]

I've tried figuring htis one out but I can't seeem to get it. I didn't want the option left to the user for light/dark style. I edited the code to take the option button out. It was working where it would load the dark template which is what I want. So, now it seems to be loading only the light style. Can someone take a look and let me know what I need to do. I'm actually having this issue now with both of my blogs.

Look for this:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="templates/switchy/styles/light.css" title="light" />
<link rel="alternate stylesheet" type="text/css" href="templates/switchy/styles/dark.css" title="dark" />

Change it to this:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="templates/switchy/styles/dark.css" title="dark" />


Also, remove the link to the styleswitcher:

<script type="text/javascript" src="templates/switchy/js/styleswitcher.js"></script>

Thanks Snafu!

I don't mean to hijack this thread but I didn't really want to start a new one for something that I'm probably just overlooking. Basically, I'm using the Switchy template and it looks good BUT when clicking to view previous or next image there's always a blink resize where the blog title and menu squish toward the center during the second or so that the image is loading, then back to normal. I checked the template creator and other Swithy user's sites and this doesn't happen to their sites. I did a fresh install of the template, same thing. The only modifications I've made are the ones above where it loads dark version by default and increasing the title size from 130% to 200%. I save all my images with a horizontal width of 720px. I hope this makes sense. If not here's the link to my site to see what it's doing: http://www.everydayfits.com

first i can´t reproduce this behavior on my switchy installation (my pictures have different sizes). i increase the title size (h1) too, but nothing happens.
but my pixelpostinstallation does not run in a frameset and that is the problem.
if i use a frameset like you, than i have the same "blink resize .."
don´t use a frameset is the solution

mugzy,

I have the same issue with my blog but not as bad. Probably because I have a gfx title and several menu items that keep it from collapsing on load. I thought about placing a small .gif spacer in between so there is no 'blank' space in the title area. It's a work around. I just haven't gotten to it yet. You can see at http://blog.robkennedy.net

I also didn't want to start a new thread for my switchy question, but I've managed to get it to look like I want it to, except for the header. I'm wondering what I need to change in order for the header to be a logo rather than text.

thanks!

Do you know how to do background images in CSS? You can make your logo the background image of the h1 tag and use the text-indent property to move the text out of view.
