I found out that making LiveJournal layouts are a bit addictive.
It all started when I got bored of my old layout and decided to look over the net for a new one. It so happens that I didn't know anything about custom styling of livejournal, so I studied and found some very good sources for codes and info on how to make them. There is this very good and useful tool for firefox users called Web Developer Toolbar that basically thought me everything. So I picked a layout that I liked over a comm on LJ and decided to change the colors. I changed the colors slightly from the layout made by![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
mailerose , then made some cute little gifs for ljuser, ljcommunity, locked and private entries and decided to create a custom set of smilies using the creations from Gilles Nuytens, Zuz, Camello, Myn and me. It looks so cute now!
After all that trouble, I decided to go to a new level and started making layouts on my own and I'm really liking doing it. I took a request fromfirefly_827347 and she really liked it. Now, I'll just post here the other layouts that I worked on over the holiday. To have a look of one of my layouts being used, go over to this other account I made for myself, it's the betasite . I wanted to name it Alpha Site, but the name was already taken, darn, instead I chose the AU name from There But The Grace of God. The layout over there will keep changing depending on what I'm working on.
