Site schemes and stuff

Thanks to [personal profile] melannen there's a discussion about alternative site schemes here. Go and have some input!

I have a question for those of you who changed from the default red and white site scheme - does it keep resetting for you when you log in and out? I can't believe it's meant to do this, but every time I log in it's back to red and white. Ow. And yes, I hit the save button after changing to Lynx. I must be doing something wrong...?

ETA: I *think* the problem has been fixed by logging in manually instead of through LJLogin, but I'll keep an eye on it.

ETA: And to remind myself, as well as let anyone else know that might need it: there's a setting in LJLogin (Preferences, Site Scheme). Phew.

Please ignore the irrelevant icon, it's the only one I have uploaded so far!

Not really connected with the LJ issue of the moment, more general time-wasting. I was writing HP fic, got stuck and ended up writing original f/f (don't ask me where it came from, but there's plot so I'm not arguing right now) and now I need a break, so... I'm trying to get this journal usable as I've said I would ages ago, but I have eye-hurty issues. This is the least painful layout I could find but I'm still going to have to change a lot, including the font, to make it pleasant for me to use. I think I've messed up part of it already *g* No, apparently it's intentional that the edit/reply stuff is invisible black on black and I can't change it. Fuck that for a game of soldiers. *changes it*

My main problem right now is the Dreamwidth background red on white parts *fails to come up with a proper name for it*. Is there a way to change the appearance of that I haven't found yet? It only takes a few seconds before the headache starts descending, the red is too much for me really.

ETA: Fixed the site scheme (I looked, but apparently not hard enough!) and it's much less painful now. Phew. Thank you [personal profile] jackandahat.
