For those of you who've friended me for updates regarding my comics post, here's a heads up that I won't be posting updates regarding that often. My plan is to add at least 5-10 comics daily, so pretty much you can either check back to the post daily (It will always be at the top) or, you can join one or both of my NotifyLists:
Also, I made a mood theme. I got bored of seeing the same person over and over again, so I took a bunch of my favorite mood themes and merged them. This theme features: Jackson Rathbone, Buffy Summers, Buffy/Angel, Angel, Dr. Horrible, Iron Man, Jack Sparrow, Gaspard Ulliel, Gaspard Ulliel/Emily Browning, Ewan Mcgregor, Jake Gyllenhaal, Robert Downey Jr., House MD, Grey's Anatomy, Teen Girl Squad, The Notebook, The Office, Supernatural and Logan/Veronica.

Download Installation Instructions by
crackified 1. Download the zip file, and unzip it in winzip or a similar program.
2. Then upload the 132 mood images to your domain, or an image hosting site like
Photobucket
. If you're using Photobucket, I suggest you download
Flock
, which allows you to upload images in large batches. There are more instructions on it
here. Do not change the file names.
3. Go to the
LJ admin console.
4. Now, in the text box, paste in the following:
moodtheme_create "Title of Theme" "Short Description of Theme"
Of course, replace the "Title of Theme" and "Short Description of Theme" text with the title and description. They can be anything you want, as long as you remember the title, because you'll need it for later. Once you're done, click "execute". If you're successful, the console will give you a number. Copy down this number!
5. Now, back in the zip file, open the "
adminconsolecodes.txt
" file (if you're using someone else's theme, right-click on the file name there and download the .txt file on its own). Using the "replace" tool in your notepad program, replace the 12345 number with the number the console gave you previously. Also replace the "
http://www.hosting.com/
" url with the url to the folder that stores the images on your domain, or the photobucket album.
6. Now, paste in the edited codes into the admin console, and click execute. You should be directed to a page with your accepted codes. If not, go back and re-do the steps again.
7. Now go to your
customize page. If you're using s2 (if you don't know what that means, then you probably are using s2), go to the "Customize Selected Theme" button on the bottom right of the page. There should be a "Mood Theme" section on your new page - underneath it, there is a drop down menu. Use the drop down to find your new theme. Save changes.
If you're using s1, simply scroll down your customize page until you find the "Mood Themes" section. Use the drop down to find your new theme. Save changes.
And you're done! Your theme should now be up on your LJ.
90% of the credit for this mood theme goes to the creators of the original mood themes. All I really did was arrange and crop the images. So, thank you:
