Layout, icons, some room to BREATHE!
Well, I sort of revamped my page again. :)
The biggest thing is that my introduction page was all rewritten and is a lot more personal. I don't know whotf is going to read all of that, but at least it's there for the curious person or two.
Thing two: In five years, I have used but one icon that wasn't my own artwork/photography related to one of my stories, and it was getting a little old. At first it was fun because I had that whole organization thing going, but I don't think it's really necessary anymore since I'm not juggling millions of stories. I think it's pretty clear while reading what it is I'm talking about. I also didn't feel like my story-specific icons were expressive of my situation while I was writing. In general, I don't think my journal is very expressive. Mostly it's a lot of "I'm working on this", "I should be working on that", and to-do lists.
So! After much longing, I gave myself a bunch of pretty icons that have particular meaning to me creatively. Some things that capture my feelings, some Phantom, some Kingdom Hearts... I'm excited to use them.
Also have a new layout. (Surprise, surprise - you all know I'm a layout nutter.)
