Home page stylesheets (got no style)

Status: 
Open
Question: 

When I made a panel for the front page and started dropping various stuff on it (HTML, "Who's new" and "Who's online" blocks) the content shows up but there is no styles (colored headers, etc) I am using the pixture Reloaded theme which I believe is the same the book mentions. Did I miss something? Do I have to set up a custom layout or some other formatting option?

Thanks

1. I had some trouble with

I had some trouble with Pixture reloaded, so I used Pixture first.

The items should be formatted in the same way as blocks.

2. No Pixture Fixer

It did not get me my style sheets. I am getting only the text content still. It did turn my site that lovely shade of pink momentarily.

3. Try switching to the Pixture

Try switching to the Pixture theme instead of Pixture reloaded theme. Seems like a bug with your theme. I noticed before that I also break layout in firefox.

If you can change your color, then the style sheet is working. Seems like it is overlooking some classes.

4. Tried and did not help

I switched and still not able to get anything but the plain text.

Panels 3 has a CSS section that might be what is lacking here. I just don't know what to put in it. There is a CSS ID and a CSS class that can be set. I am not sure what the values should be I guess whatever the class is for the block. It looks like you can stuff the class definition right in the CSS class text block. I want whatever the class is that draws the blocks in pixture reloaded.

OK more stuff I do not understand. In panels 3 you can set styles by regions. The is default and a generic rounded corner. Also some themes (Aqua Marina in particular) are shown as options but when I tried to use them I got a failed to open stream error as it was looking for this file "./sites/all/modules/panels/plugins/styles/tnt_corners/acquia-marina-tnt-corners-box.tpl.php".

Does anyone know how this should be configured?

5. Panels 3 and Pixture reloaded

merlinofchaos (Mr. Panels) kindly responded to a question on this subject and in part said "The 'block' style is pretty hit or miss with themes". It appears that the block style needs to be defined for more than just left and right column and though I am by no means an expert on styles in Drupal this sound like it may be the issue.

Has any one done customization in this area that could provide further info?
