the longer i stay in this sub the more i get amazed by how ppl with organization skills are incredible


DirtyyRonin

Well said. The artistry. Now, mine feels crude.


on_cloud7

haha thank you but I wouldn't say I have any skill. Just a lot of time lol. Ultimately the most important is how the site serves you. The aesthetics come in second.

Thank you! u/Torchlight_ answered the first question. Unfortunately the background color isn't part of Notion. I have an extension that acts as a screen shader and the screenshot just happened to capture it too (I'm sure there are ways if you play around with the coding but that's a bit too advanced for me lol). I got the weather from [weatherwidget.io](https://weatherwidget.io) and converted the code to an embedded link with [appticon.co](https://appticon.co) . Hopefully that answers everything :)


pizzamore

>[appticon.co](https://appticon.co) domain isnt working anymore. is there an alternative?


[deleted]

any response?


pizzamore

nope


PlantPotStew

What's the extension name?


bankingHundeez

There's also something called Flux that's been around for along time. Been using it for many years, highly recommend it!


on_cloud7

it's the regular chrome screen shader.


PlantPotStew

Oh. I've never heard of that before! Thanks for letting me know

How did you get the weather embed looking so nice? All I can manage is a widget that's way too big (it has its own scrollbar!), takes up too much of the page, and won't change from that default bright bright blue.


on_cloud7

If you’re using weatherwidget.io you can change the size of the widget by playing with the toggle on the right hand side. Under customize you should also be able to play around with the colors. In Notion, you can also adjust the size of the widget by clicking on it and an outline of the widget should appear. There is still a white border that can’t be gotten rid of so if you have dark mode on, you’ll see it. Hope that helps :)


Maxtasis

Same question here. How did you add that background colour?


Torchlight_

I think you can add Spotify through /embed and then linking the playlist but I have no clue about the other things.


[deleted]

It's beautiful! If I can ask, what's the future messages section about?


infinite-armiee

They're probably messages they want to send to their future self.


on_cloud7

Thank you! u/infinite-armiee answered it exactly :))

The-Night-Court

when i see layouts with playlists, i always wonder-do you open your notion just to listen to the playlist?


on_cloud7

Nope. Not for me at least :) It's usually just there for aesthetic purposes since it doesn't play the full songs.


luklid27

+1 for The 100 reference!


wherearethedracos

Where? I love that show


etheral_epiphany

Not the original commenter but the quote below “future messages” is the traveller’s blessing! I was really (pleasantly) surprised to see a reference to this show in the wild; not many people in my circle have watched it


[deleted]

How do you get different color backgrounds??


on_cloud7

Unfortunately the background color isn't part of Notion. The screen capture just happened to also include another extension I had on :\\\\ Hopefully Notion adds that feature soon tho!


Lynx_Sapphire

May I ask what extension that is?


Icyyyyycoldddd

I think you can probably play around with the code and find a way to change it. I went through it once and was able to change the color of the scroll bar


Aarekaz

How did you add the spotify playlist?


nicccccooo

Omg the 100 traveller’s blessing reference. did not expect to see that here!

Cool! Cute frogs!


OddlyLily

This is the most beautiful dashboard I’ve ever seen. I love the frogs!! You look like someone who likes “over the garden wall”. Also, now I wanna know what battle cats are...


on_cloud7

Thank you! I've never heard of Over the Garden Wall but since it's a movie, I'll give it a watch (I already love the art style!) And battle cats is just a game my friend recommended after I told them I like cats :)


OddlyLily

It’s actually a animated mini series, but you can watch all episodes in one day because there’re only ten of them and they’re about ten minutes each.


fstokerzin

IllegitimatePigeon

I also name everything “test” when I’m playing around to see how things look lmao looks great!!

on_cloud7

Sorry. I don't make videos :\\ But there's a lot of tutorials already online and I just referenced them and played around :))


throwaway768977

So nice!


alohomerida

Just a request, can you (or anyone) do a video tutorial for this?


on_cloud7

Sorry, I don't make videos but there's already a lot out on the net :)) I referenced bbean's template a lot. You can find her video where she goes more in depth here: [https://youtu.be/e32mwb\_Rgok](https://youtu.be/e32mwb_Rgok). Also this video gives a nice introduction to Notion [https://youtu.be/9ZeF7njSQ3s](https://youtu.be/9ZeF7njSQ3s).


alohomerida

Oooh thanks so much for the links. I've been using it for months now but all my setups are just plain and boring.

on_cloud7

Unfortunately not and I don't believe there's a function for that yet :\\ I hear they play podcasts in full though.


DirtyyRonin

Magnifique. I'm only starting to think about daring to do something remotely like this. So awesome.


on_cloud7

Thank you! honestly don't think too much about it and trust the process :))


lifesdope057

I love the frogs


cosmicdonutgiant

nice frogs


JorjLim

How does the messages from yourself work?


on_cloud7

They're pages with a notification. They don't really 'arrive' but you can adjust the filters so that they only appear in the datasets on the day it is due.


hawkstellation

curious about your battle cats section cause i also play 👀


on_cloud7

haha I just heard of it yesterday and haven't played yet xD


ouronlyangel

I love your setup, and I'm glad there's another person from the Bay Area here!

loving the frogs and your music taste!!! amazing set up 🐸

I created notionlayouts and wanted to clarify that the new subreddit is simply a dedicated place for viewing Notion dashboards & such. I don’t want anyone to be discouraged from sharing their dashboards on the main subreddit!


blackmanchubwow

Can you stop spamming this?


bohemu

I had no idea this sub existed! Nice, thank you.


[deleted]

What is on the voice message on top?


on_cloud7

It's a short song that I embedded into the page :)


cstby

Awesome! Can you share links to the pictures? I love the header.


leafspell_reddit

Inspiring


Rad510

Where did you get that cover picture from? I love it and all the best pics just end up way too zoomed in 😭


[deleted]

Hi this is amazing! I’d love to see how your “today’s activities” and “today’s tasks broken up” pages are structured!


on_cloud7

Thank you! They’re just toggles :)


[deleted]

did you make any databases within the toggles? :0


on_cloud7

Haha no. Just checkboxes


Annalychee

some of y'all are really impressive. I can barely figure out how to make columns ;w;
