A different 2 Column Hack

[Robert]

I just noticed a different 2 column look on the NING Blog Here or view the network here

Does anyone know to accomplish this look ?

this layout is really good. I too would be very interested in knowing the code...

My blog will help you create two columns, and in the comments is code to adjust the right column... All you need to do is then adjust the widths:)

That is so weird! I totally linked to it (and I'm pretty sure the word POST was the link, right after blog) but apparently it didn't work so I'm going to just put the URL here: http://creators.ning.com/profiles/blogs/how-to-make-a-twocolumn-ning

Hi Robert,
Just want to give you a head's up on this. When you make this type of tweak, due to the column widths being different than any column width in Ning's theme architecture, it's a domino effect. You will probably need to tweak just about every module on your home page. Been there, done that - - it's a job. At least, this has been my experience. I'd love to hear back, what you encounter and how it works out for you.

And on Linkin-park, you'd be hard pressed to find a Ning site with "more" customization than this site. Great customization I must say, but a lot of it.
Best,
Jen
