Transparent space between post

Just from looking at your blog, the reason you wouldn’t be able to have transparent space is that your background for the entire content is white, your post has no background (or padding left & right) and your comments are separated from your post class.

If you’re really interested in doing this you should:

1. Move the comments into the post div, rather than outside of it
2. give your .post padding: 0 10px (the number can change, that’s an example, I’d use a specific number to make the padding reach the outer limit of your content) and a background of #fff
3. remove the background color in the #page and #pageborders.

There’s no real easy way to change it without starting with those steps.

Good luck!

Thanks Chase, that gives me something to work with, cheers.

I’ve gone through those steps. Now i just need to make a taransparent spece in between if anyone can point out the next step

the css for opacity is:

.yourclass{
opacity:0.4;
filter:alpha(opacity=40);
}

Thanks Jocken.
Sorry for my ignorance, where do i place the code?

Cheers.

I’m not sure I agree with Jocken.

I would remove this from #pageboarders in your css file:
background-image: url(https://chrisfawkes.net/blog1/wp-content/themes/photolounge/images/border-sides.png);

and move it to .post

That way your 100px margin will give you the space you’re looking for.

Actually i was able to remove that white background altogether which i would have had no idea how to do without you pointing me to that code Chase, very much appreciated.

Thank you.

Yes, didn’t actually check the blog for the css… sorry

@fawkes You know We’re here to help. If you ever need anything and don’t feel like wading through codex & forum, I’m @realchaseadams on twitter.

@jocken Nothing to be sorry about, just didn’t know what you were trying to achieve.

Everything is an experiment.

I’m very happy with the current look, appreciate all the help, cheers.
