I just changed the look of my journal.  Still futzing with it.

I need to make some new goddamn icons too.

"Pink Returns" doesn't have quite the same ring to it ;)

Also: I don't think it's 'magenta'. However, the glare screen on my monitor makes everything darker. It still ain't pink though.

Pink Returns?

Images and colours are darker on IBM/Windoze machines than on Macs - thus, at home, this background is a very startling magenta. ;)

Maybe I should change it to yellow?

But yellow hurts...

Why not green?

What kind of green? Seafoam? Mint? I'm-About-To-Hurl?

Oh, I dunno...the ##CC66 greens on this char (http://www.immigration-usa.com/html_colors.html) aren't so bad...

Here's another hex chart. (http://www.webmonkey.com/webmonkey/reference/color_codes/)

And another. (http://www.devguru.com/Technologies/html/quickref/color_chart.html)


Maybe a better one. (http://www.december.com/html/spec/color2.html)


But now that I think of it...are you using hex or a preordained lj colour array?

I can use hex. Some of these color names are hysterical. "New $20 Bill". "Shamrock Shake". "Irish Flag". I may have to go for that last one.

Aren't they, though...? ;)

There's even a green called "Starbucks" (#006633). -rolls eyes-

The only other thing I'd suggest (since it's "Other People Get To Have Opinions About Your LJ Spread Day") is: whatever font you've got going on in light pink right now? Change it to somethink dark (and therefore more visible). Dark green might do the trick?

I had to quit messing with it since I needed to not be Messing About on El Jay at Work for a bit there.

Word.

Bear in mind, by the way, that if you need somethin' done (like an imbedded snazzy graphic like mine or somesuch)*, I can probably help you figure it out/do it for ya if you bat your eyelashes and ask all nice-like. Given, LJ is different code than I'm used to, but I can code me some mean html - which leads me to believe that I can, with some effort, figure most things of this nature out.

So holler if ya needs assistance.
