*scream* Premade Shop Catalog layout? Anyone? Please.

Submitted by lilly on Fri, 01/01/2010 - 5:40pm
I'm trying to make a shop catalog... And quite frankly, I am at my wit's end. I can't seem to make css work (thanks to the 'position' code not working), and premades either aren't working, or are totally wrong for a shop directory. Is there a way to make things NEXT to eachother, while using CSS/DIVs? Or do I need to find a pure-html (no css) premade? I'm not that great with layouts/css to begin with *sighs* http://www.neopets.com/~krazykayciorkute This is what I've got so far. I can't get the paintbrush next to the background.... not even using tables. Any help? Or ideas/ thoughts, anything? Thanks.

*edit* How 'bout this. Any suggestions? I would like to make a shop catalog with A. A section that has all the different categories (paintbrushes, potions, clothing) -- and B. a scroll-able section that has all the info + links (from all the different categories). So a two-section layout, with one being scrollable. Maybe that makes sense.

I say don't bother with shop catalogs... unless you think it's fun. They don't really bring in much customers, and are very very time consuming. The Preschool Mall: Petpet Paradise http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=mizleah

Yeah whenever I'm searching a category, I look up ye old jellyneo's item database, no need for shop catalogs in my eyes. --- Step outside, take a breath of fresh air, then look down to see if you have a new text message.

Hm. I really wanted to list out all the paint brush clothes -- just so people know. If it really doesn't work.... I'm housebound. I would consider it 'fun' to make. But I can't get a layout.

I used plain old fashioned html :P and it might be different for your category, for furniture it wasn't worth it
