Stupid spew: Site Change

[arrow00]

Anybody out there? I'm feeling tres desole for some reason.

So I changed the colors on my LJ. I feel like I just bought a new pair of shoes. Are they preeeetty? I hope so. But I have a blister on my heel.

I wish I knew how to put a banner across the top. If anyone is more in-the-know with the whole LJ stylesheets thing and wants to give me pointers, I'd appreciate it. The ironic thing is I code/program for a living, but though I write my own style sheets from scratch, LJ's framework confuses me, so I haven't messed with custom ones. (Yes, I know I should RTFM. Feh.)

*****update: apparently you can't *do* banners with this particular style. Oh, well.

In other news...I just finished a mongo 32K wd Sentinel AU, "Somewhere to Be," which the brilliant and talented janedavitt is beta'ing for me. I feel guilty for taking her writing time (especially since she is back to writing Point of Contact segments, wee!) but she is one of those very nice people who actually gives back to the community (crazy kid.)

I hope to be posting it next weekend. This is one of the longest pieces I have written so be assured it is utter crappity-crap.

Hi there - I'm Anna. *g* I've actually been trying to read you all day (really!) so that I can give you some fb, and I keep getting distracted by LJ and RL. Sorry. I really will be getting to it soon. *nodnodnod* I can't remember how I first saw your LJ, but you're writing in two of my newer fandoms, so I friended you to keep up with what you're doing. *g*

As far as your LJ, I do like the colors, but the size of the font used here in your comments? Viciously small. I may go blind...and I've increased the size 25%. Just sayin'.

Banners...well - I think that the level of difficulty may depend on your layout style. From what I can tell, some are quite a bit easier than others. My style - Flexible Squares - appears to be fairly easy to do...although I haven't actually done it. Heh. I'm very so-so in my coding abilities. :( I think, though, that you should give it a shot...what the heck...you can always change it back if you don't like it. Are you using a S1 or S2? Because there is a pretty good tutorial for S2 here. Anyway...

See you around. *g*

And hi again, and welcome to the fandom(s). :) I love both of these fandoms so so much, for very different reasons.

I'll check out the S2 tutorial, many thanks.
