2. When you find out let me know
I want to put a small gif as the background, but I have no idea how.

4. I did some trial and error.
I'll write it up in a blurb and PM you. I don't want the real coders to diss my methods.

I've been doing some random journals shopping and I've found some people with some awesome journal flava.

7. You need to bone up on CSS.
That's how the backgrounds and stuff work. It stands for Cascading Style Sheet. There are numerous guides on the internets for creating and maintaining them. Find one and have fun.

13. Gah!!! I'm an illiterate computer user
I don't know how to do all of this coding stuff, perhaps someone could be kind and PM me on how to do this stuff to my Journal? I would like a Blue Storm theme matching with my SN.

Thanks!

Blue

22. I knew it, I knew it!
Not only I'm a foreigner, but I have a cat in my Journal. No wonder I lost my 5th place on 'Most Viewed.' ;) Where's a good pic of Ren Hoek if I need one?
