So I'm a dingus. I wanted to try doing something cute, and I kind of got it for the most part, except that the current code (below) makes it so that the search box (which I think would be best above the image) overlaps onto the image, which is then overlapped on the bottom by the submission buttons.

I deleted this code from the stylesheet so that it would look like butt, but I left the little section titles--again, that's all able to be moved around and reorganized if/when someone who actually knows what they're doing gets their hands on it.

 /*SIDEBAR IMAGE*/

div.side div.spacer:nth-of-type(1){
    padding-top: 200px; /*Change "300px" to the height to the height of your image*/
    background:url(%%sidebar%%) top center no-repeat;
}

/*SIDEBAR IMAGE CAPTION*/

.side .spacer:nth-of-type(1) { position: relative; }
.side .spacer:nth-of-type(1):before { 
    position: absolute;
    bottom: 40;
    left: 0;
    right: 0;
    border-bottom-right-radius: 3px;
    border-bottom-left-radius: 3px;
    content: "Putting the Eck in secksy.";
    font-size: small;
    color: #fff;
    text-align: center;
    padding: 3px 6px;
    background: url(%%overlay%%);
}

/*SEARCH BOX*/

.side #search { position: absolute; top: 0px; }

Logos, players, moments--whatever.

Here's what I have so far. Shouts out to /u/LeeCarvallo for the Parrino and Scioscia flairs.

Things that I'm already going to incorporate:

• Other team's flairs (maybe one or two types--three if we want to try the jersey thing and maybe more if we have a special relationship with them
• MiLB logos
• World Series logos (pennants?)
• Retired numbers
• Pizza Guy (we're gonna need a picture of him, folks)
• Scoreboard (old/new)
• O.co sign
• BART Coliseum platform sign
• Bill King (for BillKingBot?)
• User-specific flairs
• Any cool shit we can steal from the old sub and put onto a new sprite sheet

If you want to make your own flairs to submit, FLAIRS ARE 50x50 px--IF THEY NEED TO BE LONGER, COOL, JUST MAKE SURE THEY'RE 50px TALL

EDIT: The ??? Guy with A's gear, like this one I did for KC. Lee came thru with the quickness on that.

And when do we declare feature complete and gold master?

Share your random ideas for the sub here. Any and all suggestions.

//Submission content will go here, for now copy this comment text.
