What do you think...

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

Love it!

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

[identity profile] elisa-rolle.livejournal.com 2008-06-29 03:54 pm (UTC)(link)
It's a bit regal, isn't it? I worried it was too "almighty", but sometime I'm a bit vainglory!

Good, this is what I tried to achieve. Elisa

Good, elegant is always good! Elisa

Thanks Lanie. Elisa

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

[identity profile] elisa-rolle.livejournal.com 2008-06-29 04:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I feel a bit like a roayl person... it's not too much? Elisa

[identity profile] sydmcginley.livejournal.com 2008-06-29 04:10 pm (UTC)(link)
No, not too much. It's lovely.

[identity profile] elisa-rolle.livejournal.com 2008-06-29 04:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks :-)

[identity profile] zamaxfield.livejournal.com 2008-06-29 04:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, it's lovely and elegant! It reads very well. I think I actually like it better.

[identity profile] elisa-rolle.livejournal.com 2008-06-29 04:41 pm (UTC)(link)
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.

Elisa

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?

[identity profile] elisa-rolle.livejournal.com 2008-06-29 05:03 pm (UTC)(link)
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

[identity profile] zoenichols.livejournal.com 2008-06-29 05:17 pm (UTC)(link)
How very lovely, Elisa!

[identity profile] elisa-rolle.livejournal.com 2008-06-29 05:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you Zoe. Apparently my new layout gains a bit of consense :-) Elisa

[identity profile] shiawmeimei.livejournal.com 2008-06-29 06:10 pm (UTC)(link)
I love it! Very elegant!

[identity profile] elisa-rolle.livejournal.com 2008-06-29 06:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks Shayla! Elisa

[identity profile] muroku.livejournal.com 2008-06-29 06:34 pm (UTC)(link)
I like the "E" banner on top but I also liked the pink color of the layout too.
Your new format looks very neoclassical!

[identity profile] elisa-rolle.livejournal.com 2008-06-29 06:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, it's a layout that recall a bit Mount Olympo :-)

[identity profile] luscious-words.livejournal.com 2008-06-29 07:41 pm (UTC)(link)
It's easy to read and elegant, too.

[identity profile] elisa-rolle.livejournal.com 2008-06-29 07:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks, it's what I wanted to reach. Elisa

[identity profile] snowmore.livejournal.com 2008-06-29 08:24 pm (UTC)(link)
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

[identity profile] elisa-rolle.livejournal.com 2008-06-29 08:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Ahah Robin, you know mw and my moody behaviour... but yes, I think I will keep this one! Elisa

[identity profile] lee-rowan.livejournal.com 2008-06-29 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
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.

[identity profile] elisa-rolle.livejournal.com 2008-06-30 05:33 am (UTC)(link)
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

[identity profile] lee-rowan.livejournal.com 2008-06-30 03:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, you are a Leo, after all--so is my baby sister. Grandeur is your nature!

[identity profile] elisa-rolle.livejournal.com 2008-06-30 03:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, right! We are the kings of the zodiac. Elisa

[identity profile] mychael-black2.livejournal.com 2008-06-30 09:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Wow! LOVE the new look, hun! :D

[identity profile] rbm00.livejournal.com 2008-06-30 10:07 pm (UTC)(link)
I prefer this layout to the other pink one! It's very nice to look at. I agree with everyone else: very elegant!

[identity profile] rbm00.livejournal.com 2008-06-30 10:17 pm (UTC)(link)
It's no work at all. I don't think Elisa wrote it anywhere, but this layout is from [livejournal.com profile] thefulcrum by [livejournal.com profile] 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 [livejournal.com profile] freelayouts or [livejournal.com profile] 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!

[identity profile] debbie1701.livejournal.com 2008-07-01 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
Your layout is feminine and easy to read. Very nice!

[identity profile] elisa-rolle.livejournal.com 2008-07-01 07:30 am (UTC)(link)
Thanks! I'm starting to like it also... I'm always cautious with changing. Elisa

[identity profile] elisa-rolle.livejournal.com 2008-07-01 07:30 am (UTC)(link)
Very good! Seems that I made a right choice. Elisa

[identity profile] elisa-rolle.livejournal.com 2008-07-01 07:34 am (UTC)(link)
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!)

Elisa

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

[identity profile] leeteng.livejournal.com 2008-07-04 03:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Great layout and easy to read with the page summary and tags. Way to go, Elisa.

[identity profile] elisa-rolle.livejournal.com 2008-07-04 03:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks. I tried to make the way easier for all. Elisa
