tiny, whiny post

[krait]

I am all for Dreamwidth and am fairly committed to posting content and expanding fandom here, and all that. Really I am.

It's just -- pink and red? Whyyyyyyy? My two least favourite colours ever. I dread logging in because I have to look at the hideous colour scheme.

[/trivial gripe]

And my own journal is ugly, too, because I haven't found the time to attack experiment on it yet. Anyone out there have too much free time and want to play with DW layouts for me? :D

ETA for latter part: Better! Off to make myself some more icons...

Dude, there's another sitescheme in a colour that in French we'd call caca d'oie (goose shit) :D

For your own journal, you might want to have a look at the 300 styles already available. I can help you with further customisations :)

Haha, that is a hilarious colour name! *cracks up*

I have been tinkering and now my journal is "Peridot", and it looks okay with my icon so I am happy. :D (Aside: yours looks great with it, too!)

I so rarely look at my own journal that it took me this long to get 'round to removing the Drab Standard Grey look. But now my flist is pretty, too! And I'm not quite so intimidated at the prospect of fixing up my tags as I was, since now the entries stand out so much better...

Expect halfway decent tags from me from now on! (Also, a LOT of green icons. Because when I find something I can live with, I tend to stick with it FOREVER.)

It takes one second to get away from the red and pink site scheme...

Link! Awesome! I figured there had to be some way to alter it, but I couldn't figure out where they were hiding that. :D Now it's purple and my retinas are significantly happier.
