Independent/prototype Style Browser

[foxfirefey]

Take a look at this Dreamwidth Style Browser, especially the theme list (click on the Filter heading to see what filters you can use).

This little independent project was inspired by ninetydegrees' getting started styles post, where she started to make a list of what layouts and themes had what features.

It's certainly not perfect--the layout and theme properties need better guides and explanations, the color categories need tweaking, and I think I need to define more areas as feature colors as opposed to accents, along with other tweaks and improvements. But, I think it's implemented enough to start showing to a wider audience!

We're trying to standardize options as much as possible so that picking a style depends on aesthetics/layout rather than on customization features (it would be a shame to find a style you like only to discover you can't use it because it's lacking a certain feature)
Styles allowing placement in the header are actually the exception. :)

Ah, that's awesome! I never changed layouts on LJ because most of them had differences to which I couldn't adapt (like avatars swapping sides); it is sooo cooool to find out I can change layouts here and still have stuff where I like it to be. :3
