How to use Spooled Up Racings Google Currents page

by WannaBREz » 08 Jan 2012, 02:56



Here is a video I made on how to navigate in Currents to see the Spooled Up Racing site. Right now it is just a feed, pulling in posts from the sites, anything on the Facebook page, and some how to's are up there. I also have a Currents only section as well as trying to get members car videos from You Tube.

(The screen recorder really slows my phone down)


If you are on your mobile now and have Currents installed, Click this link, http://www.google.com/producer/editions/CAow8_Mw/spooled_up_racing

    Put the code changes in here so I dont have to go searching through files.
    Re-sized 3 more banners and put them in the rotation. Anyone have some they would like to submit, I can put them in. Banners 800x160 px
    Played with centering the banner in the common.css by adding
    Code: Select all
    #logo {
       float: left;
       width: auto;
       padding: 10px 13px 0 10px;
    }


    Change to
    Code: Select all
    #logo {
       float: left;
       width: 100%;
       padding: 10px 13px 0 10px;
       text-align: center;
       margin-bottom: -40px;
    }

    **Dont like the margin-bottom: -40px; line. Really messes up some spacing, will remove from code when/if implemented
    And
    Code: Select all
    #site-description {
       float: left;
       width: 70%;
    }


    Change to
    Code: Select all
    #site-description {
       float: left;
       width: 100%;
       margin-bottom: -60px;
    }

    I don't think the search bar change is necessary. This may be adopted down the line, but right now we need more banners that dont play with the edge of the screen
