Okay, more housekeeping.

The new layout: For those of you just joining us, the goal was to make the layout, particularly the comment posting boxes, more accessible to anyone with visual impairment. I threw "November Day" up here just to have something clean and legible for the Oscar liveblog, but... now I actually like it. I went through every ( Read more... )

I agree to both the purple and the background image. But I don't know where the image would fit in this layout.

I feel oddly proud of myself for making it into your linkspam with my glorious gif. (or rather not mine...just something I randomly found on tumblr)

I like the layout just as it is, but the purple is nice too. (Personally, Im more of a blue person than purple). I hate all the LJ default layouts, however, there are tons of communities out there that give out custom code for layouts. I like using those the best. I can generally find something that is close to what I want and then I tweak the colors and background/header to my liking. Its super easy.

I like the cleaned up side navigation a lot!

Yeah, I think that's what's really drawn me to it. That, and the jaunty calendar. Not thrilled with the entry icon being on the far side of the screen rather than at the beginning of the text, but you can't have everything.

See, I could change these things by tweaking the entire layout in S2.
