I made a custom template pulled from the basic b2 template, but for some reason it's not taking my style sheet that I made for it. Any ideas?

Here the link: http://www.dayofroses.com/journal/

Here's a link to the css: http://www.dayofroses.com/journal/skins/roses/roses.css .

Make sure you've selected the right skin in the backoffice for that particular blog. Then you're going to need to edit your _main.php file and look up near the top for the line that looks like:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="custom.css" type="text/css" />

That needs to say roses.css, not custom.css.

Hope that helps...

Ok I have all my blogs set to my roses template and fixed the css, it's sort of working but for some reason all the text is bigger than it's supposed to be. The CSS is the same as on the other pages. Any ideas?

Looks like your other pages link to styles.css instead of roses.css. If you want them to look the same you might want to copy over from styles.css the section(s) you want.

Also, just for your information, when I view your roses.css using the firefox web developer extension I see a lot of strange characters (little squares) that shouldn't be there. I'm not sure what editor you are using to edit your css file but it may be adding some strange things to your file. That could be part of the problem, but I've never seen it before so I'm not sure what the effect is.

My other sections are in root. They're not part of the template. I'm using the same css for the sections and the blog. That's weird I don't see any strange squares with my firefox developer tools on my PC. I used bbEdit to do the code on my powerbook.
