I defy any cloud to appear in the sky
May. 29th, 2008 06:19 amI have a snazzy new journal header!
I don't normally announce these things these days. But I felt I ought to mention it this time, since the person I got the header off of,
dana_cz, altered it from a full-color version (which she posted in her lj, here) to my specifications so I could match it to my layout colors.
I mean, that's just too kind NOT to mention. Generally speaking, when people have spent hours on a graphic getting the colors and textures and transparencies and blending and so on just so, it's common for them to get tetchy when someone comes along and says, "LOL THATS GRATE BUT KAN I GETZ IT IN EARTHTONES?" At least in my experience.
So yes. Thanks,
dana_cz! (She made this icon too, incidentally.) I'll probably switch back to my black/grey/white/red House layout eventually, but for Series 4, I quite like this.
Also, since my computer (unlike the laptop I originally created an external stylesheet on for my House layout) will NOT open CSS files in ANY way, shape or form, I got to spend some time pouring over the source file for my lj to alter my layout this time. As a result, I think I understand how CSS works a bit better now - certainly not enough to create anything from scratch, but I DID manage to remove the pesky underlining of links in my lj (which has ALWAYS bugged me), as well as fix some padding issues I was having with my sidebar. So. Yay?
I...really don't want to go to work today. I feel like I might actually have creative writing inside me to do. Which is rare, but it's even rarer I can indulge it. It's not going to happen today, either. Oh, well. Actually, maybe I CAN write something before I have to leave for work. I'm just going to pretend that's going to happen, because I'm feeling optimistic. I've gotten in touch with some people I've been meaning to call, reached my dad, etc. Surely, given my current karma, today will be a good day!
I'm still working on an analysis of David Tennant's handwriting, but I'm quite excited about it. I think I need to email someone about some more puzzling traits, though. I don't want to post until I'm more sure about them.
