If you want to get rid of that annoying, ugly, navigation strip at the top of your journal, go here:
http://www.livejournal.com/manage/settings/index.bml and look for the section in the middle of the page called "Navigation Strip" and uncheck the two squares that say:
+ Always see the navigation strip when you view any journal or community
+ Always show the navigation strip to anyone who views your journal or community
Usually I wouldn't post things like this here - I'd just save it for Chiffon Wings, but I thought you guys probably are bothered by it as much as I am.
