[Call Me Wesley]

6. Huh?

[LSK]

7. yeah, havnt seen it before.

[Call Me Wesley]

8. Oh,

I think I posted it once, or even twice or so ... :P

[LSK]

9. if those picture threads have over 100 posts i give up on them

I hate finding them late!

[Call Me Wesley]

10. The only one

I started once got over 400 posts and I asked a mod to lock it. With all the pics, it was around 4 MB of download. ;)

12. I really like your journal especially your module interview!

I have no idea how to customize the appearance. I'll have to wait for admins to add the Journal FAQs.

[LSK]

13. customizing looks like you need some HTML skills and time

[CottonBear]

17. No kidding! Unfortunately, I have zero HTML skills at this point.

I can learn though!

Hey! We chose the same journal skin! I went for the large print look because I figured it was easier on the eyes and easier to read. ;) I love the random journal link. I've been having fun clicking on it and finding all of the new journals!

14. Thank you!

:hi:

If you click on 'Edit Journal'. scroll a bit down until you see the 'Custom Module'. If you then click on 'Edit Module', you get a box where you can fill in a title and a larger box for the text, where you can put in text and pictures like you do in normal posts. Make sure you have the setting in front of the 'Edit Module' on 'On', otherwise it won't be viewable.

16. Thanks!

I've managed to post pictures and links in my modules. What I really want to do is change the background color from white to pink. It looks like I'll have to study some html to do that.

I love how you have pictures above the DU info at the top of your journal page. :)

2. I was expecting more like a blog

I rarely TLP these days so you kinda need to read an entire thread to figure out what I'm going on about.

Why can't we create our own entries?

[LSK]

5. you can, just post in a forum

[CottonBear]

18. You can create anything you want in your modules.

Also, you can change the modules whenever you wish. CAll Me Wesly has an interview with another DUer in one of his modules. I posted quotes, pictures of my horse and fave links in mine.

3. Nice.

[Orsino]

11. I'm already tailoring my reponses so that they'll make sense...

...on my journal. The nekkid nature of journal entries necessitates repetition.

[Whoa_Nelly]

15. Like'em

Already changed out a couple of archived posts there to update.

Am hoping that as the journals "mature", Skinner et al. will be able to add a diary feature.
(Hmmmm...wonder if there would have to be Diary Mods....)
