Hi there! Love your skins for ao3 but for me the symbols for the fics (Rating, Relationships, Content Warning) aren’t showing up and I was wondering how I could fix this?

I'm using custom icons for these symbols! In the first few versions, the hosting service I used for the images sometimes had issues with downtime, which caused the icons to remain invisible on occasion. So in the newest versions I'm using a much better hosting provider with better uptime, which should fix the entire issue.

However, if you're still having problems, or you simply prefer the look of the default AO3 icons, you can go to the bottom part of the code and delete everything below the line that starts with ".required-tags .rating-general-audience". That part of the skin is all custom icons, and deleting it will restore the standard symbols for ratings etc.

I took a look at all the Ellipsus-inspired AO3 skins and I love how well you manage to replicate the themes!

If you don't mind me asking, for the ones with gradients such as Wicked Fog, how do you manage to implement the gradients?

I use the css gradient function! You can find more info about that function here: https://www.w3schools.com/css/css3_gradients.asp

I tend to use them sparingly, because not every browser supports gradients, and they can quickly become overwhelming. But for small details like buttons, or a mouseover on a link, they're super fun to do!

All the Gods Damn you Scientia!

Enjoy this special colorful crack post while I finish up on my video and such.

I meant to just go after Ignis. 

Then I noticed Ravus’ face. 

So I Anseled three shots.

[stephicness]

This is Ravus.

He doesn’t talk much.

[inegenly]

So, I did a thing. Based on the thing. You know, the thing that Ravus doesn't do. Thanks for the inspiration, @stephicness, even though I'm like 9 years late to the thing.
