I have moodthemes!

Now that the DVDs are out and there are lots of OT screencaps, if one can find them, I have updated my Luke and Leia moodthemes:-

All the preview pics are exanimate, geeky, giggly, mellow, pensive and tired, in that order.

   

luketheme.zip (687 KB)


 

leiatheme.zip (638 KB)


Also I have a Natalie Portman theme:

    

nattheme.zip (582 KB)



Only available for paid users.

1. Download the ZIP files, extract all the images and upload them to your own server. It must be one that allows remote linking.

2. Go to http://livejournal.com/admin/console and type in 'moodtheme_create "anyname" "foo" ' It doesn't matter what anyname and foo are, you just have to have two variables. It helps later if anyname is something that you can easily identify the moodtheme by. Hit Execute.

3. The console hopefully should say, Success! Your new moodid is [number]

4. Open the codes.txt file from the ZIP file, and do a search and replace "yoursite.com" with the name of wherever you uploaded the pics.

5. Do another search and replace, this time changing ##### for [number], ie the moodid the console gave you in step 3.

6. Copy and paste the entire file into the console. Make sure that wordwrap is off, so that every line ends in 60 (the width of the images). The console takes a linebreak as the start of a new command. Hit Execute again.

7. Hopefully you now see lots of succeeded commands and no red, failed ones. If it all looks okay, go to http://livejournal.com/modify.bml. Under the dropdown menu to choose your moodtheme, scroll down to the bottom, and you should see "anyname", the name you gave to your theme in step 2. Click on it, and voila! Custom moodtheme.



Comment, credit me in your userinfo, don't bother hotlinking unless you can make a theme out of the only 6 pics on the server. Some of the moods have alternative pics for them inside the ZIP file. You can choose which ones to use and upload. If the server goes down down me an email for the ZIPs.

Heh. Top marks for your translation!

I have a little button I got at NJCL convention which says "Cave Magistram." Useful phrase, I think.

I attended my district's NJCL con recently. They were selling buttons that said "flaci non flacio." I woulda bought one, but I had no money. Mind if I friend you? It's so rare, finding someone who gets this sort of thing, a fellow rare avis.
