Would you be interested in learning how this works? I could write up a small tutorial It's pretty easy.

The change in lj tos has been prompeting me to check out my dreamwidth account. I have't posted in over a year. But honestly, it wasn't even a consious decision.

How is everyone doing? What are you doing about the tos?

ps: I updated my style with google fonts . Variety is awesome :D I also changed quite a bit of other stuff on my css styles. I like it.
ps2: lj crossposting does not work anymore. Any solutions?

Today is the day! This after noon I will see the new Star Wars movie with some friends. I really look forward to it. There are no movies I have seen more often than the old Stwar Wars movies. It's been such a huge part of my childhood and my life.

Anyways, I added some of you from this meme. So welcome here. I hope I won't bore you aore drift back into inactiveness again. It's so funny, a week ago I was complaining that it was so quiet and just a few days later and two new people on my flist, I could hardly keep up ;)

I'm in my mid 30ties, have been in fandoms for most of my life. I'm a dancing, reading, snuggling graphic designer and I love design and art and basically beautiful stuff. I usually post what i feel like posting or what I feel might interest you although I've fallen out of that habit a bit in the past few years.

I have several fandom related websites, such as ex-posed.com, parisnights.de and an icon journal at http://onlion.livejournal.com/ It's been ages since I updated any of these though.

Anyways welcome everyone, let's get to know one another.




This is the multi-fandom friending meme going on. Check it out.

Day 03

I'm a bit behind again. I guess this was bound to happen. I have a load of work and responsibilities, christmas presents to buy and create. Just a lot of stuff to do.

Hi, has anyone any idea what happened with icalynn? Has shee been hacked? Can anyone contact her?

It is quite shocking to me that my last post was in may. May! That is more then half a year. Before that when I went weeks without posting, I've been thinking of posting but didn't manage becasue of time, life, well countless reasons. But I always thought about it. This journal was my happy place. The place where I share things and also deal with stuff.

But I think with the decrease of activity in general, my enthusiasm also waned. So many people who I admired and/or were close with left that it just doesn't feel like the same safe space and I feel that I don't know many of the new people as well as those that have left.

I do realize that is my own doing. I have not been cultivating relationships here. It might have to do with not having something I'm really fannish about. And I also realize that filling this place up with stories and images is what does create a home.

I also noticed that just reading and listening to english stuff and not writing things on my own has lead to my english deteriorating and I don't like that.

Seems like my lj style is damaged. The whole css is not being used at all.

Also happy birthday halt_lit_world and book232!! I hope you have wonderfully amazing, relaxing and finnish day :)

First of all, thank you very much for the Halloween cookies. Those made me really happy.

I could not reciprocate to all of you because lj didn't let me. I think I was a little to late and my transaction crashed in the middle and lj told me I could not do any more. It didn't let me buy them via paypal either. Maybe it was somethig to do with the changes they are making for paid accounts?

Anyways, I hope you all had a wonderful weekend.

As a part of me iconing again, I have set up an icon journal for myself to seperate the private stuff and the icon stuff and to give the option to people to see the art only if they choose to. I’ve made a really cool CSS stylesheet for it that I’m quite proud of using Flexible Squares and then all the lj changes the friends page look crap happened and I started to think more seriously about moving it to dreamwidth completely, so I migrated the Flexible Squares to dreamwidth with a tutorial and advanced customization, which then gave me the not so brilliant idea to create a style layer on my own complete in HTML5. And thus I became a bit obsessed with it.

However even though I made progress, I’ve shelved the project for now, because I seriously lack php and perl knowledge here and the documentation is seriously lacking for me. So I’m keeping the customizations in css for now. Do any of you have knowledge of the S2 style system? Is there an idiot guide ;)

Also I’m still trying to figure out if and how I should post old content on my icon journal. Do I post all the icons, or just the ones I like best? Do I post all the masterials in an archive post? What about the artworks and the tutorials and the downloads. I have been thinking about that for a bit and cannot make a decision.

My dreamwidth already has the css stylesheet changes. What do you think?

If you get a random youtube video in the comments, DO NOT CLICK on said video. It contains a nasty virus!

thanks to meret and nrrrdy-grrrl for the heads up.

I'm back. Lj is finally letting me post again. Using this occasion to spam you with cute gifs ;)

Livejournal has been under a DDoS Attack again on tuesday night. Thank god I'm not feeling it that much this time. I missed checking back here. I missed you guys.

Anyways, since none of us know what will happen, maybe it's not a bad thing to have a journal backup. So if any of you guys need dreamwidth invites, I have 11 invite codes.

Anyways, sometime in january I decided I needed a new userinfo and thus revamped my livejournal style as well.

The userinfo cost me a lot of my patience because livejournal doesn't play by normal html and css rules. The intention was to have a sort of alternate universe including some of my favorite shows. And I do think the new userinfo has sensible information. What do you think?


Anyways, what good is the carnival season if I don't use it for something good. I finished the layout this weekend! Now it works in ie6 as well. If you still find glitches or see them... if you could check it I'd be very grateful. I've cleaned the whole lj css and tweaked a lot of the base style. Would anyone be interested in using it? Because I would share it.

I've incorperated the rotating script into this layout and so far I have 7 headers so far:

• SGA: Sheppard, Vegas
• Terminator the Sarah Connor Chronicles
• Merlin: Merlin/Arthur
• Lost: Daniel and Sayid
• Lost: Ben and Jack
• Verbotene Liebe: Ollian
• ASWT: Luke

And will still make some others for Supernatural, SGA, Ollian, the Mentalist, How I met your mother and a few other shows I love. Maybe even Smallville and Star Trek Voyager. So comments, suggestions and critisism are welcome. Or maybe just feedback :)

Check out my brilliant present by animotus here.

ETA: wohoot! There's a new Terminator: the sarah Connor Chronicles!!

So Rene and I will head home early today to catch Lost. We had originally planned it for friday night but rally cannot wait for it at all. So We started work really early today so we could see it.

*isabundlyofnerves*

That said, I hate livejournal styles. You know why? Because the programming is so shoddy. OMG bad. I want to hurt whoever created this style I'm using for not adhering to some basic rules of HTML. My stale is still kind of wonky because of that. But look, alternating headers.

What do you think of the changes so far, do you have any ideas? the thing is, if I work my posts with HTML and not Auto Formatting it works so well, but my flist is all screwed u, because a lot of you don't. And I do understand that.

Hey guys, I'm making myself scarce again but I do have my reasons. Mainly RL both work and privately. Hopefully next weekend I will catch up woth my shows and read all the fanfiction I've bookmarked.

Anyways, I'm making a few changes to my lj, so this is a test entry for me.

Maj. John Sheppard: Rodney, you're drooling over a Wraith!
Dr. Rodney McKay: I know, I... disgust myself sometimes.

Happy belated birthday beet and mamoru22. And yes, I realize it's long ago!

View the icons here.

ETA: how about we do this meme thing where you ask me questions and I'll try answer them as best as I can. I'm sure there is a lot you guys don't know about me and I need to watch the comment threads to design them. So if you do have questions, fire away.

You know this morning when I first checked, I only had one complaint. At work, where I am right now, I have to be very particular at what I view online.

That means explicit materials and youtube vids are totally off limits.

The only thing that helps me is reading the cut tags, or a describtion. You are about to view content that may only be appropriate for adults. Does not do that at all, because some of the content behind that had nothing mature or explicit about it and it largely means that to not get in trouble I will need to avoid any post labeled as such.

ETA: Via cerri and frogspace: How to avoid that adult content warning.

But the thing is, what if I have an innocent post with pic spam... and in comments we start making comments about the hotness of some ass and then it gets more explicit... Does it then need to be flagged?

I mean, I am pretty sure there are underage people on my flist but I don'T think anyone needs to be censored, I want to have fun here!!!!

And the major thing is, as I started reading fanfic, I was still underage and really, I did not care about the labels and the warnings and the, click only if you are over 18 tags. I pressed those buttons anyways. So how hard is it for a teen to just klick that button and do just that?

I haven't been very posty, and the truth is, I cannot keep up. I just cannot at this moment. I have a million emails to answer, a million lj things, just rushed by me and every day I wonder, wtf, this show aired already?

I finally watched the Prison Break S2 premiere. Which rocked. And more X-Files.

But that's that. Grandpa's birthday was as expected. And the *other* new piggies are there. Spent sunday brunching *g*.


Anyways, I revamped my lj to something simpler. Let's see how long that will hold. I'm sure there are still some bugs too. anyways, I like what happened to the tags page. And the layout is sort of meant to put focus on the content :)

... have trouble with their userpics? some of mine aren't loading at all. I wonder why.

It Seems the Livejournal Cusomization section has been revamped. Looks a lot better. So I'm now gonna play with it a bit while I wait for a phone call. If you want to check it out, it's here.
