Hm. Well, I'm trying to start using my LJ, but I need helpppp!

*blush*

Yeah. I can't figure out how to add people who select the "friends only" option.. =\ I try to comment them to be added, but it won't let me make a comment.

And I can't figure out how to get a pretty background, either. =[

*is completely computer illiterate*

Help, anyone?

Hey! Welcome to LJ! I think I can help you ...

It looks like you managed to friend me, and a few other people. Sometime when we're both online, I can try to walk you through it. You don't have AIM, do you? That would be the easiest way to help you -- I've helped a few other people that way.

I'm especially confused about the commenting thing. That shouldn't be a problem, although I do know that some people locked all their entries, even their "Friends Only" entries so that no comments could be made -- they did that before DH came out so they wouldn't be spoiled accidentally. Most should have fixed that by now, though ...

And the background thing is a little trickier to explain. My favourite community is premade_ljs. You have to join the community in order to see the posts, and then the mod of the community has to approve you, but she's really fast about that. I'd do that first thing. She's made lots of different LJ layouts, and she gives very straightforward instructions for setting it all up.

I'd also read through the FAQ page on LJ. That's helped me a ton.

Good luck, and PM me any time!

Hey Abs! Thank you so much. =]

I've PMed you back. =] But yeah, I figured out the layouts [I just had to use a different browser.] It's just the comment thing that's confusing me.

I'm off to join the community to see some of the layouts!

*hugs* Thanks so much!
