I redid my journal's layout last night; a few people on my friends' list have done it in the last couple days, and I've had my old design up since January, so I felt like changing things.

But when I got up this morning and started to check livejournal, I was so confused. Why is everything yellow! Am I logged into someone else's journal? And then I remember that uh, no, this is mine. I'm going senile.

Also, have an mp3 of An Angry Blade - Iron & Wine, the song I used lyrics from. It's the best Konzen-to-Sanzo song ever.

Oooh, it's really, really pretty! *_*

(I really need to find a copy of Photoshop. I've found a few images that I'd love to try and tweak for layouts, and I have the time now, too.)

Thank you!

Would you like me to send you a copy? I have a hacked Photoshop, so it's shareable.

!!

You do? Um, that would be really wonderful. *cough* Thank you! ♥

Ta-da! Photoshop 8 (http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=download&ufid=1401D7AC21BA4F91). Look at the Read Me file to get it to work, but it's fairly self-explanatory.

You are unbelievably awesome. <3 (Graphics of any kind are not my thing at all, so at least this time I'll have longer than a month to try and figure out what I'm doing. *coughs* ¬_¬)

No worries! And hey, I don't know how good I am at graphics, either. Nice thing about photoshop is that playing around with it for a while tends to make everyone look good. *grins*

Um. I feel so silly for asking this, but, uh, I have everything downloaded and unzipped, but I'm not sure which files to copy and what to overwrite, and I'm sort of cringing from how inept I am at this...

Date: 2006-06-30 08:25 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] wordsofastory.livejournal.com
Oh, no worries! Take the two files in the "crack" folder, and drop them into the 'Photoshop CS' folder. (You can find it by going to "My Computer" -> Local Disk: C -> Program Files -> Adobe -> Photoshop CD). They should automatically overwrite the right files; if it asks you "Are you sure you want to overwrite" or something similiar, just say yes.

Did that make sense?

Date: 2006-06-30 08:29 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] wordsofastory.livejournal.com
Oh, wait- you need Photoshop installed first to drop the files into the folder. If you haven't don't that yet, just click the 'setup.exe' file, and it'll do the rest.

Yup, it did! Or at least it did if it means the "you have 29 days left to avtivate this" warning disappeared. XD

Thank you! I swear, sometimes I wonder how I go through life at all.

*goes off to fiddle with things*

Good!

And hee, no worries. Computers are confusing; sometimes I get confused by the smallest details.

Looks good! I like the yellow.

From: [identity profile] wordsofastory.livejournal.com
Thank you! I'm pretty fond of it, too. Though less so in clothes than in web designs. *grins*

Ugh. I have never seen anyone over 5'4" pull off a yellow top. I don't think I have ever even owned anything yellow.

Date: 2006-06-29 02:59 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] wordsofastory.livejournal.com
Yeah. I'm down with orange or gold or beige, but yellow... not so much. It looks like an escapee from a circus or something.

One of my co-workers has a pastel yellow suit and looks wonderful in it. I'm slightly jealous, even though I'd never wear pastel anything anyway.

Date: 2006-06-30 08:27 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] wordsofastory.livejournal.com
Yeah, I'm not big on pastel.

She's in her sixties so she's allowed.

Hee. It took me a few days to get used to my new layout when I first put it up a few months ago. Why is there this huge picture on the side? My LJ is brown! Why is my LJ red?

I should redo my layout. Bored now!

From: [identity profile] wordsofastory.livejournal.com
I like your layout, though! It has pretty dancers. But I know what you mean; I tend to only use mine for a few months, and then get bored of them.

From: [identity profile] b-hallward.livejournal.com
Oh, I like. Feels very warm and summery. Plus, Konzen Sanzo looking *makes vague mix-them-together motion* how can you go wrong?

Date: 2006-06-28 10:59 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] wordsofastory.livejournal.com
Thank you! And I adore that picture; I've been wanting to use it for something since I first saw it. And since I couldn't fit the pretty swirly hair into an icon, this is the next best thing.

Oh, yes. That's beautiful.

::weeps with incompetence to tweak layout::

Thank you!

Oh, man. I tried to fix Rune's layout last night, but S2 defeats me. I couldn't even figure out where to begin.

Mine should not be that difficult, and yet I can't figure it out. LJ code is so very bizarre.

Date: 2006-06-30 01:57 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] mistressrenet.livejournal.com
Lovely-- and I keep doing the same thing. "What's this green?"

Date: 2006-06-30 08:27 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] wordsofastory.livejournal.com
Thank you! And hee, yes. It's funny how accustomed you can become to something as simple as an LJ layout.
