This one should be good to go. Tabula Rasa needs to be stripped out of the layout layer, but I think everything else is good. (Except for the part about it winning Most Uninspired Name Ever. But I'm darn proud of that sidebar!)

^_^V It's a bit of a pain in the butt to theme, so I'm kind of happy we have so many theme designers around here! I only got up to two before I gave up.

[musyc]

Yeah, I'll be theming this one a lot. (Seriously, did I mention that I love it?) I've got a wine-purple theme on mine already, and I'm planning greens and blues at minimum. XD

[branchandroot]

Fantastic! I felt a little guilty putting this up with a bare two themes, I have to admit.

[erin_hartley]

Love the wine-purple one a lot!

[dancing_serpent]

*wince* Forgot to log out/into my main account. That was actually me, and of course I couldn't resist creating a theme with my favourite aqua colours already. *g*

[musyc]

:D :D Aquas are always lovely. Is it your "Sea Serpent" colorway? I think your Rose series would look great on this layout, too.

[dancing_serpent]

No, it's the New Ocean I have on my main journal. *g* The Roses might work - will try them out. Sea Serpent has only five different colours - might have to experiment a bit.

[musyc]

I think other than white (well. Just *barely* off-white) and grey, I only used five or six colors in the wines, which I shall have to name once I get to them. (Working on an Elvis-inspired series for Modish). I get a bit twitchy if the shade variations get too widespread. Should hear me sometimes poking themes. ("That color is only used once! For ONE LINE OF TEXT! Whyyyyyyyyyyyy? *makes it match something else*)

[dancing_serpent]

I get a bit twitchy if the shade variations get too widespread.

*g* Same for me!

[dancing_serpent]

Heee...Sea Serpent worked really well for this! *pleased*

[musyc]

Yay! Sea Serpent is one of my favorites of yours so I'm glad it works well for this layout.

[erin_hartley]

Thank you! Take a first look then:

Sea Serpent / Preview

*g*

[branchandroot]

Oh, sweet, that works out really nicely!

[dancing_serpent]

Thank you. *g* If it worked with those colours, some of my others will definitely work, too. Will try them out today...

[musyc]

Oh, yes! That worked great!

And this makes me think it would be nice to have a comm for theme designers to put up examples and get suggestions. dreamscapes tends to be more "here, these are done". I'd like something that's "hey, does this shade of orange work?" or "I've been staring at this so long I can't tell anymore if it's good, halp?".

[branchandroot]

Theoretically, that's what dreamscapes if for too. We do have a "draft" tag. As an embarrassingly-inactive-mod, I'd say, go ahead and throw those entries up here too.

[musyc]

Huh. I never noticed the draft tag. Learn something new! XD (My friends are generally useless for this sort of thing. It's mostly "yes, very nice, Musyc, your enjoyment of layouts is cute" and that's that. Until they break something and need help.)

[dancing_serpent]

Thanks! And yes, as Branch said - this comm is for testing things out, too. I'd love to see your works in progress. *g*
