New Layout and Lots of Squee

[gothrockrulz]

It's a simpler layout this time. It's amazing how few simple greyscale templates there are out there. Sheesh. But still, I'm happy I finally got a good result.

I spaced out and completely forgot that Epica released a new album in May. *hangs head in shame* It's great, and some moments are so heart-pumping, I nearly had to just sit aside and chill for a bit. Wow. Must save moneyz faster so I can buy this after some GACKT goodies. :D

This is THE BEST fandom/classic crossover fanart. EVER. The only reason I'm not screaming like a banshee and running around in circles is because I'm at work. The original painting, The Accolade by Edmund Blair Leighton, is my favorite piece of artwork of all time. Just look at the lighting there. Look at it. Magnificent, utterly magnificent. Excuse me while I bide my time till my break so I can run outside and squee.

I haven't gotten around to listen to the new Epica album yet. I haven't even bought it yet (nor the anniversary DVD, though I was there, so for that one I have an excure for not wanting it immediatly XD). T___T

Ah, so much to do, so much to buy, and so little time and money. What's a fangirl to do? *hugs* Don't worry, I have a feeling we'll both stock up on goodies sometime soon. :)

Very nice layout! That's some seamless color-matching you've achieved. Well done.

And WOW that fanart!! That actually took me a minute, because I knew I'd seen that picture somewhere, but I couldn't put my finger on why it was so familiar.

ETA: And may I also say thank you for enlarging the font in the comment boxes!

Aww, thank you! My biggest reason for changing the layout was those doggone font sizes I couldn't pinpoint in the old layout. >.<

I'm seriously considering adding that fan art to my long list of Things I Want as an Art Print. :)

Where did you get this layout, by the way?

[gothrockrulz.livejournal.com]

It's called Just Greyt, and the first page of the tut for installing it is here. I tweaked the link colors and font sizes, but otherwise all credit goes to fruitstyle. :)

Great, thanks! I'm having trouble finding layouts that still work these days!

Amen to that! *sighs*
