Happy Birthday to Me!

Jan 16, 2011 01:33

Okay, so it's my birthday (reeeeeeeaaallllllyyyy early on my day) and I just wanted to make sure everyone knew about it because I consider myself that awesome.

KIDDING.

It is my birthday, but my real reason for this post is because I want to squee about a present I will be getting.

My Desk

It is a Glen Eagle Desk, one of those that the front folds down ( Read more... )

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Well, it's not for another 15 minutes here, but still! lol. I looooove those kinds of desks! That is awesome!

As for graphics, I can offer minimal help. There are communities like moodtheme. A lot of the time you just have to search through communities by doing a search for 'mooodthemes' or 'mood themes'. If my brain was on right I could tell you more specific places. lol. As for layouts... I suck balls with that stuff. I don't know how to put them in, generally. Most times I have someone else do it and then change the header around (the only thing I do know how to do). I've yet to see a specific layout for our boys, but you can always make your own header and add it to a pre-made layout, like I did. Anyway, search for them the same way as moodthemes in the lj search. You'll need a free image host site to upload them to. I find for moodthemes that photobucket is the easiest.

Sorry I'm not more help tonight! I'm just kinda... spacey. :)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, AGAIN! :DDDD

Thanks! I'm so glad to get this stuff, and the header thing is what I meant; I have no idea how to make that work.

but yes, I get to sleep in and do nothing and hopefully have red velvet cake (I bought red velvet doughnuts for breakfast yesterday and proceeded to eat 4, screw my diet, and remark on how it's my favorite every single time I took a bite. Do you think that's too obvious? <.<>.>

So with headers once you have the layout in the 'custom css' thing, look for something like this:

.headerimage {
position: relative;
width: 700px; <--- change this to fit your specific
header
height: 350px; <---- this too
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
margin-top: 5px;
padding: 0px;
background-color: transparent;
background-image: url(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v621/abs3/layout/d61bc680.jpg); <--- add direct url here
background-position: center;
background-repeat: repeat;
-moz-border-radius: 4%;
}

Does that make sense? I don't know how to do it with one of the general layouts from lj anymore. But it's pretty simple with ones you put in yourself. And if this makes no sense... Then I suck. lmao. Good luck! And good luck with the cake! <333

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BB!!! That desk looks awesome. :)

As for layouts and graphics and such, I get all my layouts from mintyapple and most of them have the ability to add a header. Also, emiliglia posted an animated J/B mood theme a while back that's here.Hope that helps. ;)
