If you like what you see, do consider watching the community.

Instructions:
1) Go to 'Organize' and select Customize Style.
2) After that, Select a Different Theme and select 'Transmogrified'. Pick the one that says 'Dignified' by branchandroot.
3) Next, scroll down to 'Choose a Page Setup' and select 2 Column (Sidebar on the left).
4) At the 'Presentation' tab, make sure type of tag listed is displayed as 'list'. You'll also need to go to 'Additional Options' in the same page and set the width of the sidebar to '0' and set the place of icons to 'left'.
As for the user interaction and entry management links, please select both as 'Text-only'.
5) At the 'Modules' tab, make sure that only the navigation (Header) and links (Main module) are enabled. Remember to go to your links list to define your links!
6) At the 'Text' section, make sure to remove the text for the 'Text for 'Tags' header for an entry' section. It should be left blank.
7) Optional: If you'd like to add a header, the recommended dimensions are 800px (Width) x 200px (Height). This is underneath the '#' header section.
8) Finally, at the Custom CSS section make sure 'Use layout's stylesheet(s)' is enabled and paste the code: Patches of Sky

Hey there! I love this layout and I'm using it in a community. I've got a few questions, since I'm not super familiar with coding and I want to make a few changes!

1) I have 10 links, and when I'm in a thread the links overlap with the comments/the icon, like this. Is there a way to solve that?

2) I want the top bar (the one that communities have, with the 'join this community' option and all) to be displayed. How do I do that? Is there a way?

I think that's all. Thanks for such an awesome layout again!

Uh-huh! Thank you so much. No trouble so far with the control strip thing, and I changed it (just in case anyone else wants to do it and is nervous something will be wrong).

As for #1, isn't there a way to lower the comments so that I can use the same style for commenting?
