question (kind of a request maybe?)

[sa1nt]

i love layouts with multiple columns for posts, like this, this, this....
however, i don't find any of these on DW, except a single one made by killthecake, which i tried to edit but don't manage to make it fit my likes. so any tips or suggestions? i'd also be happy if someone actually made layouts that looked similar to the above ones since i enjoy minimalist style and tiny fonts.

edit: please don't reply with suggestions anymore, i have found solutions! i think this can stay open anyway, though, since other people might look for similar stuff and the suggestions here might be helpful for them.

I’m a little confused about what you mean about two column then, since when I opened the links to the IJ journals, they were all the exact same as the two column ones I linked - one column of navigation, and one column of posts. Maybe it’s because I’m on mobile?

yes, on mobile it likely displays not as its supposed to. on desktop it has 2 columns for posts (=2 rows of posts next to each other, instead of only single posts stacked upon each other) instead of just one. i know it's not for everyone but i actually like this form of layout for some concepts, like when it's mainly image posts.

most actually don't from what i observed unless it's when you import layouts that are made for other sites (insanejournal, livejournal). for almost all others you just select a base layout and add custom CSS.

Okay, that makes sense! And yeah, I agree that this kind of layout is really nice for things like images, (and, personally, also great when the layout collapses on mobile then too).

And yes, that’s what I’ve noticed as well, so it was interesting to see a dw-specific layout use layers.

Good luck with your search! I saw you posted on style-system so hopefully someone else will have some ideas.
