Speaking of loooove, I really like your ever-changing backgrounds for this journal. Such great pictures! How do you a put in a background like that?
:::sigh::: I remember the days when html was easy, when the web wasn't run by all of this java-cgi-stuff, and I could just type in the damn code, upload it, and voila!, without having to worry about templates or overriding code or anything like that. Of course, back then I walked to school barefoot, uphill both ways through three feet of snow.
Thank you ever so much! I'm going to stick with this one for a while, I think! I loved my old one, but when I hit the six month mark I went nuts and wanted a change. LOL. Found tons of dragon pictures, and had a new friend change the size of this one so it would SHOW instead of just getting a wee corner of sky to show! lol.
Anyway, I just followed the FAQ directions for backgrounds, just copy and paste one of these two codes under "Modify Journal" - I used the second one so that the boxes scroll over the picture and I can see the 'hidden' parts as the word boxes move.
You can also change your style under the Modify Journal, if the one you're using now uses up too much space. Also, you can make your own color scheme. My sis found a really good site for finding colors and codes, I'll send it to you if you end up wanting it. :o)
Also, you'd have to have your background on some website that allows you to link to it from the LJ. If you don't have one, I'd be happy to keep one under my AOL site for you. (i.e. I don't think backgrounds posted to angelfire or geocities would show up, at least not from what other people have said....)
