NOTE: This entry applies only to my InsaneJournal account. I do not have a fantastic layout on dreamwidth.

Woo~ Fantastic new layout, courtesy of [insanejournal.com profile] cashew! Thanks for letting me use it! I absolutely love the background, and the way links look.
It's actually been over four years since I changed the layout on this thing. Heh.. I really loved the one I had before, so never felt the desire to change it, until this one was made. .^^
Now I kinda want to make a mood theme to go with it, which sounds like so much more fun than cleaning my apartment.


In other news, tomorrow is my last day of work before winter vacation starts. My annual winter trip this year will be to Ise Shrine in Mie prefecture, then a short jaunt down to Kobe (not for any particular reason, I assure you....), then over to Miyajima, to spend New Year's at Itsukushima Shrine, and New Year's Day hiking Mt. Misen. After that, I'll spend a couple days wandering around Hiroshima.

I realize, of course, that I still haven't posted my travel log or pictures from last year's Kyoto/Nara trip. .>_>

Last year I sent a postcard to my family every day or so during my trip, but they never said anything. I don't even know if they ever received them. So I don't think I'll bother this year. Of course, then they'll act like I'm some kind of asshole, as usual, when all I've done or haven't done is the same damn things they do or don't do.



Now, how should I do my mood theme...?

If you're serious about making your own mood theme, I recommend using the hierarchical tree layout (http://www.insanejournal.com/moodlist.bml?moodtheme=131&mode=tree) as a reference. In my experience it's much easier to name the icons according to number rather than mood, which makes the coding easier. Also, keeping the icons all the same size can be very useful.

Next, I would use the admin console (http://www.insanejournal.com/admin/console/) to code in all the mood theme rather than uploading one by one. In my experience, mood themes are where you want a really reliable image hosting source, since it's a pain trying to figure out which one is broken in the future.

And if you don't know the code, I can write up some more instructions. It's just a matter of copy/pasting really. (You can use the reference (http://www.insanejournal.com/admin/console/reference.bml#cmd.moodtheme_create) if you want to try your hand at it.)

In my experience, finding and assigning 100+ mood icons is the more time consuming part. The coding goes fast once you've decided.
