Live Journal layouts
Does anyone know how to make them? I am totally lost >_< I want one with like a sidebar, or something O_O

It took me like 2 months to figure out how to monify my Livejournal, it can be a little confusing, and it also depends on what system you are using (S1 or S2). When using S2, there are pictures of the different layouts you can use and there are a few that have the sidebar you mentioned (Haven, Digital Multiplex (OSWD), Component, A Sturdy Gesture, etc.) Looking at the FAQ page can be pretty helpful, I modify mine regularly so if you have any questions or want a background I could probably be of some use ^__^ I would be more than happy to give you any help I can feel free to IM me. Here's some helpful links How to customize (general questions) Customizing using S2 Customizing using S1 Hope this helped ^__^

Thank you so much your so nice, I might have to IM you sometime this week about it.

No problem! I'd be glad to help ^__^ Here's a link to my Livejournal so you can see what I did with mine, maybe get some idea's for yours?

Oh it is beautiful, I want something like that but on the oposite side.

Okay, thats pretty simple. 1. choose the Variable Flow theme for S2 (there might be other themes that give you the option of changing right/left/center layout, that one is just the one I'm using now) 2. click the edit customizations under change individual settings. 3. There will be 5 tabs at the top (colors, layout, presentation, option and text). Choose layout 4. The top two drop down menus control the margins on wither side of the page. For a the journal to be on the right choose "tiny" for the page left margin and "massive" for the page right margin. 5. Click save To add a background image: 1. Same as above, click the edit customizations button. 2. Choose the Presentation tab. 3. Scroll down to where it says Page Background Image URL. Enter the URL for the image. 4. Click save. Other things about customizations: List of available customizations for different themes (using S2), can be found here Depending on what you want, I would just play around with the different styles/themes/colors/etc until you get it the way you want it. It takes might take a little while, but its pretty fun screwing it up in the process ^__^

Ahh thank you so much ! :glomps: Now it doesnt look so ugly anymore

You're welcome, glad I could help ^__^

Well here is the finished product of your wonderful tutorial there. http://www.livejournal.com/users/doux_madame/ (Hope I did ok)

Looks good to me. Awwww! Ayumi is so cute! n_n Except... sometimes... her eyes scare me... they are just way too big at times. XD Is it true she had eye surgery? In her older pictures, her eyes do seem a little bit smaller, but I dunno. I'm not a huge fan of hers, so I have no clue. >_>;;;

Ooo...I love it! Who is the girl? Shes adorable. You did a winderful job ^__^

I am not sure about the eye surgery, can you get a surgery to make your eyes bigger? The girl is Ayumi Hamasaki. I have been into her music a lot lately. I have been editing it for about a half hour. Its pretty fun actually. I had Gackt on there, but I didnt like it so much.

The Gackt one was pretty cool, but then again I like dark backgrounds ^_^ Desktops make the best LJ backgrounds since there big enough so they don't repeat. I'm out of idea's for mine, I changed it again yesterday but I don't like it >_< gtoo boring...I think I shall go make a new background for it...Im so rambling...

I like dark backgrounds too, I am in the process of making one of Toshiya.

I am not sure about the eye surgery, can you get a surgery to make your eyes bigger? Yup, it's supposed to be pretty popular in Japan. There's a rumor Gackt got it done too, but once again, I dunno. >_>;;; I hope neither of them did, I hate plastic surgery. >_<;;; Wah, everyone's is so pretty... n_n;;;
