Squee hee hee: addendum.

Woohoo! Successfully altered my colors to better suit my world view - or at least my ideas of LJ beauty. This is a bigger deal than you'd think, because I had no idea what I was doing. :-D

That took care of my urge to do a little HTML'ing. Now I'm in an icon kinda mood, so I'll be cruising the net for pics. Or writing! Or reading! Anyway, just a gratuitous LJ re-styling post. Off to play in the traffic of the information superhighway...

Oooh, very nice colors. I like.

Also, this is a cool little thing I use when I want to change colors:

It lets you see how the colors look together, which is nice.

Thanks for the link!

Here's a cool little tool that's handy when you've found a color online and want to know the codes to duplicate it. It's called Csamp. It's a tiny download, about 32K, I think. You click and drag crosshairs over the desired color, and voila! The codes, both rgb and hex, are given.

I love Martha Stewart's product colors (hey! stop laughing!), so I usually go to her site when I'm craving inspiration. The colors are so creamy and deep. Good stuff.

Go download Csamp! You'll love it!

Ooh, that's very cool. Thanks for the link!

I need to change my colors, and maybe this will motivate me to do it.
