merci

i've wanted to change my comment thing for the longest time, but didn't know how. i think there is something about the whole comment thing in the other lj topic, but i didn't understand it.

Search in the FAQ, it has the answer to the comment thing.

Depending on the template you use, some options aren't available.

actually any lj style can have a background and change the comments .. all free accounts have that option so it's for everyone :nod:

just copy and paste the correct code into your lj override .. i love doing that kind of stuff so if anyone needs help let me know

I used this site http://www.binaryuprising.com/index.htm ... ntsGen.htm to customize my comment links

You know, one day I go to check my LJ and everything looked shitty. My links disappeared, the format of my page changed, and my background picture went away. I was pissed, and I still haven't changed it.

Only if you use the old system.

There's a new system?

Axtech · Post by **Axtech** » 10/15/2003, 5:22 pm

Yeah. You can choose Old System (S1) or New System (S2) when setting it up. You can change later, too.

Whoa.

Axtech · Post by **Axtech** » 10/15/2003, 5:25 pm

The old system's a pain because you have to get the colour codes elsewhere. I used the new system so I could pick my colours there. I don't really mind the comment thing, and the other missing options are fine.

The background can be done on my template (tabular indent), but I don't know about others.

I prefer the old system .. to me it's just more user friendly and not as plain .. I love all the color options :nod:

The old system is if you want to do alot of customizing. If you have refried paper, I don't think you can get very much to change.

i used to have refried paper and i could never figure out why the color schemes i put in didn't work.

Looks good.

I thought the same thing about "refried paper" Damn weird LJ people.

happening fish · Post by **happening fish** » 10/16/2003, 2:19 pm

I still don't get the refried paper thing. Is that like refried beans?
