After solving this problem Easy Twitter Status no longer works on Joomla 1.5 websites
I wanted to change the look so that the tweet showed in a speech bubble like this .
Check the Escape Surfboards Surf Report site to see it live.
Here's what I did . Don't forget if your doing this kind of work then using Firebug is a awesome tool.
> drew a line around the box that contains the tweet. Adding a rounded corner effect too.
-moz-border-radius: 15px;
border-radius: 15px;
border: 1px solid #333;
> make a image that will go at the top to make it look like speech.
I put this image in the folder modules/mod_tweetdisplayback/media/images
> in the Tweet Display Back Template that your changing you need to add the following < div > to appear above the Tweet Box .
For me this was on line 79 of modules/mod_tweetdisplayback/tmpl/default.php (take out the spaces from the HTML !)
< div class="TDB-tweet-speech-img">< img src="/speech.gif" border="0"></ div>
> lastly you need to position that and change the position of the box below so it all looks right.
.TDB-tweet-speech-img {
display: block;
position: absolute;
margin-left: 25px;
}
.TDB-tweet-container {
float: left;
margin-top: 19px;
}
table.tweetouter {
margin-bottom: -15px !important;
}
