Adding lace to your theme
separate post for this because there are multiple different ways you can add lace into your theme and i dont want to be confusing!
for the laces, youll have to add a meta name based on how tall or wide the image is for conveniences sake. some lace sets (usually those at the top and bottom of the theme) have differing widths or heights, and if thats the case youll have to have two meta names.
Width (applies to lace on the left and right sides of your theme):
<meta name=“text:lace width” content=“[WIDTH HERE]”>
Height (applies to lace at the top and bottom of your theme):
<meta name=“text:lace height” content=“[HEIGHT HERE]”>
if youre going to have multiple lace images, youll have to add something to differenciate the laces; you cant have multiple classes or ids with the same name.
At the top of your theme:
#tlace { position:fixed; top:0px; left:0px; width:150%; height:{text:lace height}px; background-image: url('{image:top lace}'); z-index:2; }
At the bottom of your theme:
#blace { position:fixed; bottom:0px; left:0px; width:150%; height:{text:lace height}px; background-image: url('{image:bottom lace}'); z-index:2; }
On the left side of your theme:
#llace { position:fixed; top:0px; left:0px; width:{text:lace width}px; height:150%; background-image: url('{image:left lace}'); }
On the right side of your theme:
#rlace { position:fixed; top:0px; right:0px; width:{text:lace width}px; height:150%; background-image: url('{image:right lace}'); }
if youre only going to have one of these on your theme (aka on the top or something), you can get rid of anything related to the positioning in the id name or the image meta (the letters before the “lace” in the id refer to their positioning).
after that, put these above “</style></head><body>” and before any other codes. if youve applied a proper height/width, they should show up! youre going to have to be spot-on with how tall or wide the image is, though, or else it will repeat or cut off.
