Glad to announce that we have completed the CSS reference table! With the help of the CSS table you can now experiment with styles and attune your layout according to your specific needs.
 
The table is available at: http://www.viart.com/css_reference_table.html
 
With regards,
ViArt Support Team

It would have been better if you would included a Screenshot of viart highlighting the different css classes and its position

was a while ago, but is there a better css reference guide?

I would find is much more useful if the .css file itself was annotated at each item, explaining what it refers to and which areas.
 
Rather like this:—
 
/* a little spacing above and below the links in the Account Options block */
.acct_options div.nav_link_container {
margin-top: 10px;
margin-bottom: 10px;
}
 
/* fix margins for best sellers ol */
.best_sellers ol {
margin: 0px;
padding-left: 27px;
text-align: left;
}
 
.best_sellers ol li {
vertical-align: top;
margin-bottom: 5px;
}
 
 
/* move the links a little closer to the bullets */
.best_sellers a {
position: relative;
left: -5px;
}
 
/* fix alignment of text with numbered bullet for IE only */
* html .best_sellers a {
position: relative;
top: -2px;
}
 
/* table that contains subcategory links, below category detail */
.subcategory_table {
width: 100%;
}

Wow.. the more I play with this stores CSS file the more I want to cry..
 
IMO, it would be a smart business decision for Viart to hire a CSS expert and have the entire layout redone.

I told them they should hire me!
 
I am gradually going through the file to streamline our styles, but we have a very modified template and I'm not sure how much use our work would be for others. Sorry.

The problem is also upgrading. I can never keep track of my changes.
 
The .css file must be the *most* important development needed by EVERYone?

I NEED a better version of this stylesheet with updated block titles and so forth...

As best as I can tell there doesn't seem to be anybody at viart that knows what "cascade" means in relation to cascading style sheets. Just look at their code, they have the same font rules defined 50 times.
 
my recommendation would be to either learn css or hire someone to help you. viart can't help you. too bad, I like the product.

I love the product and have been using it for over a year now. I'm just not really keen on the style sheet guide they have and I'm looking to changing a few things.

We NEED a new stylesheet guide. The one that is provided here [censored]. I want something more dummied down, and for EACH aspect possible:
 
Standard blocks on page:
style: .block
 
The following can be changed for '.block'
- margins
- background
- font
 
Title above the blocks:
style: .Title
 
In order to change the top right corner to be rounded, use an image in ur style such as:
 
.titleTopRight {
width: 20px;
border-top: 0px solid #999;
border-right: 0px solid #999;
border-bottom: 0px solid #999;
border-left: 0px solid #999;
background: url(https://yoursite/images/bevel_top_right.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-color: #3B5998;
}
 
 
I'm sure if this was done, we would be able to create better designs for ourselves without having to go through in-depth web-design classes. I want something a lot easier to use...

It's items like this:
 
td.userHomeTitle b {color: #FFFFFF;}
 
that I look at and say [censored] is this! I need to know what that is, and looking at a reference for the styles (as given) should tell me what that is... but it doesn't!

Hi!
 
I've used the "Sylizer" sw for customizing the viart theme. This is a must have tool, that makes the CSS work really easy, but of course the Viart's CSS code is not so valid. The Stylizer reads it and alerts for n x 10s of bugs... :(

I'm not looking for a program to use... I can do it by hand... not an issue. What I'm looking to get is a description of what does what...

Yes, Dan, that really is the issue. You can spend hours modifying a style hoping that it does what you want - and then restoring it and trying another item!!
