What do you think...

[reviews_and_ramblings]

of my new layout? I'm a bit of an ego, am I not? But well, other than an aesthetic opinion, I'd like also to know if it's clear and if you all see it without problem.

Very nice -- easy to read and uncluttered. I love the "E" monogram.

It's a bit regal, isn't it? I worried it was too "almighty", but sometime I'm a bit vainglory!

[fiona-glass.livejournal.com]

It's great - simple, clean, clear, and very easy to read. :)

[elisa-rolle.livejournal.com]

Good, this is what I tried to achieve. Elisa

Love it!

[author-aghoward.livejournal.com]

Hey Elisa! I love the new layout. And the "E" is so elegant. ;-P Very pretty...

Re: Love it!

[elisa-rolle.livejournal.com]

Good, elegant is always good! Elisa

[princesslanie.livejournal.com]

Thanks Lanie. Elisa

[sydmcginley.livejournal.com]

I like it.
Very clear. The background is elegant but not obtrusive.
Queen Elisa!

[elisa-rolle.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I feel a bit like a roayl person... it's not too much? Elisa

[sydmcginley.livejournal.com]

No, not too much. It's lovely.

[elisa-rolle.livejournal.com]

Thanks :-)

[zamaxfield.livejournal.com]

Oh, it's lovely and elegant! It reads very well. I think I actually like it better.

[elisa-rolle.livejournal.com]

Oh good, it is always hard to leave a path for another, and I was pretty fond of my pink background, but probably it was not so clear.

I like it, too. And I don't think the monogram is too much. It's quite nice.

I have to work over my own layout, too, but I am quite busy at work right now. Is it much work?

[elisa-rolle.livejournal.com]

To know how to do I made a lot of errors :-) Using a custom layout is not simple, but if you know how to modify the code, outside the LJ customization, you then can cut and paste it on LJ... but it's not simple to explain for me since it's not my field. Elisa

[rbm00.livejournal.com]

It's no work at all. I don't think Elisa wrote it anywhere, but this layout is from thefulcrum by grrliz. The previous pink one was by the same person too. That site has a lot of really good layouts and I sometimes use her simpler looking ones. If you want even more, you should go to freelayouts or premade_ljs. They have tons of layouts that you can use. All you do is copy/paste the CSS codes and some of them ask for credit somewhere, but for the most part, no work at all!

[elisa-rolle.livejournal.com]

I'd like to give the credit, but in the code there aren't... I would like to put at the end of the page but I'm not very good with changing the code. You are right the layout is from thefulcrum and then I change a bit the width and the sidebar (I learn how to do that made a lot of errors!)

How very lovely, Elisa!

[elisa-rolle.livejournal.com]

Thank you Zoe. Apparently my new layout gains a bit of consense :-) Elisa

[shiawmeimei.livejournal.com]

I love it! Very elegant!

[elisa-rolle.livejournal.com]

Thanks Shayla! Elisa

[muroku.livejournal.com]

I like the "E" banner on top but I also liked the pink color of the layout too.
Your new format looks very neoclassical!

[elisa-rolle.livejournal.com]

Yes, it's a layout that recall a bit Mount Olympo :-)

[luscious-words.livejournal.com]

It's easy to read and elegant, too.

[elisa-rolle.livejournal.com]

Thanks, it's what I wanted to reach. Elisa

[snowmore.livejournal.com]

Elisa,
I really like the layout. It is regal, and also romantic, which is the basic content of your journal.

I hope you like the layout and will keep it.

Robin

[elisa-rolle.livejournal.com]

Ahah Robin, you know mw and my moody behaviour... but yes, I think I will keep this one! Elisa

[lee-rowan.livejournal.com]

It's beautiful, the "E" is for Elegant - the print could be darker, but that may be just a combination of my monitor and eyesight.

[elisa-rolle.livejournal.com]

Thanks Lee. I like it very much, but the E is also for Ego... it's a bit of a grandeur layout and I wouldn't like to give a wrong impression. Elisa

[lee-rowan.livejournal.com]

Well, you are a Leo, after all--so is my baby sister. Grandeur is your nature!

[elisa-rolle.livejournal.com]

Yes, right! We are the kings of the zodiac. Elisa

[mychael-black2.livejournal.com]

Wow! LOVE the new look, hun! :D

[elisa-rolle.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I'm starting to like it also... I'm always cautious with changing. Elisa

[rbm00.livejournal.com]

I prefer this layout to the other pink one! It's very nice to look at. I agree with everyone else: very elegant!

[elisa-rolle.livejournal.com]

Very good! Seems that I made a right choice. Elisa

[debbie1701.livejournal.com]

Your layout is feminine and easy to read. Very nice!

[elisa-rolle.livejournal.com]

Thanks Debbie, it's what I'd like to reach. Elisa

[leeteng.livejournal.com]

Great layout and easy to read with the page summary and tags. Way to go, Elisa.

[elisa-rolle.livejournal.com]

Thanks. I tried to make the way easier for all. Elisa
