Help!!!!!!!!!

Everything went terribly wrong and after receiving "LJ layer error" whilst commenting in somebody else's LJ I lost my header.

- I am trying to go into "Edit Journal style", "Advanced", "Your layers"
- Then I am trying to create a new layer with type: "Theme"
- Then I edit it and press "Save and Compile" and it compiles fine
- Nothing happens, though my image file for the header appears to be healthy. WHY??????????

I had a source code for customisation saved

Am I forgetting to do something???
Everything is lost?
I should be creating a new LJ because my header will never come back??

Update: Thank you so much, fabulous winterspel, it is all sorted out. EEEEEEE! Thank you!

Are you sure that you have chosen that theme layer from the "look and feel" tab - under "themes" you want to make sure you've chosen your theme layer from the dropdown menu (it should appear at the bottom under "custom layers").

If your code for your layer is the same as it was before, then it's not the code that is the problem, it's something else. When I had my problems with my layout, there wasn't any problem with my code, it was rather in what had been selected - LJ had somehow selected something different for me, and I had to delete something that had just appeared in there and taken over all my settings (which is just weird, because I definitely did not put it there).

I'm so sorry. I hope it gets fixed!

::hugs:: I'm totally inept at anything technical, but good luck. I'm sure there are people who understand this stuff and can help.

ACK! It's always the stupid checky boxes isn't it. default takes over or reverts or some Ebil thing!

Glad it's back... your header is SO pretty
