Ch-ch-ch Changes

Hmmmm...so whaddya think?? I'm not completely sure yet if I'll keep this template or not...I have another that I tried right before this one that I'm considering using too. I do like this one though, and I AM a Sagittarius. Also was pretty cool that it's got my favorite color as the base color.

I don't particularly like the black font. I wish I knew how to change it to maybe a deep purple color that would blend in more with the rest of the template. Anybody know how to help with that?

When I decide for sure which of the two templates I like better, I will get my blogroll and stuff put back in the sidebar. Yes, I backed up my old template...so all I'll have to do is copy the links from there.

Anyway...I'm pretty much over my cold...Yay! MrKB thinks he may have it now though, and Meghan has had a bit of a runny nose....fun stuff. My mood has also been a bit better. Guess not feeling good made me cranky!

love your new face!!! I love the colour! I went into my template ? ... and changed my font colours around. I got the colour #'s and info from help in myspace...lol... Unfortunately, I canna remember the details. Just go to a colour chart, pick your color, copy... then open up your template and scroll through until you can find the font that you want changed. Exchange, preview, save.

That is my uneducated advice... lol...

Royalty and Spirituality: Purple is royalty. A mysterious color, purple is associated with both nobility and spirituality. The opposites of hot red and cool blue combine to create this intriguing color.

Nature of Purple: Purple has a special, almost sacred place in nature: lavender, orchid, lilac, and violet flowers are often delicate and considered precious. Because purple is derived from the mixing of a strong warm and strong cool color it has both warm and cool properties. A purple room can boost a child's imagination or an artist's creativity. Too much purple, like blue, could result in moodiness.

Culture of Purple: The color of mourning for widows in Thailand, purple was the favorite color of Egypt's Cleopatra. It has been traditionally associated with royalty in many cultures. Purple robes were worn by royalty and people of authority or high rank. The Purple Heart is a U.S. Military decoration given to soldiers wounded in battle.

Using Purple: Deep or bright purples suggest riches while lighter purples are more romantic and delicate. Use redder purples for a warmer color scheme or the bluer purples to cool down.

Possum: Yeah, I just need to figure out the number of the color I want...then figure out WHERE in the mess of HTML code to put it! LOL Love the purple facts! It's been my favorite color since I was little, and incidentally, my favorite scent is lavender. :)

Lecram: Thank you! I'm not totally over it yet, but I'm past the make-me-feel-like-crap part! Colds suck, don't they?

Kidd: Thanks, me too...think I'll stick with this one for awhile. :)

Kali: It took me awhile to find this template. And having to go with a free one, it limits the the choices! Wish I could afford to have someone design one tailored to me, but oh well. As for the HTML stuff, yeah...it still confuses me too. I just studied the template code a bit while tinkering with it last night, and once I found where I could change the headings in the sidebar, it made it easier to find where to change the comments part. I'd always wondered how to do that too, but didn't know how. Also, for some cool (free) templates, click on my link to Moodswing Creations...her linkware is the free ones.

Roxi: Heyyyy girl! Good to see you stop by! Yeah, I think it does too, especially since I figured out how to change titles in the sidebar. A little more individual that way, I think.
