New LJ layout!

[galathea]

You know what the problem with LJ layouts and headers is? Once you started with the whole changing layouts thing, you can't really stop it! It's even worse than with a website layout, since I see it more often and for a longer period of time than my homepage and hence get bored with it a lot faster! *sighs melodramatically* So I made a new header and colour scheme, it's all autumnal now. Let's see how long it lasts! *g*

OO I love the new layout! I also love the words you put in - makes me go "Aww". The coloring is really nice and I just love everything about it!

[galathea-snb.livejournal.com]

Thanks, glad you like it! Since the show refuses to be emo at the moment I need to compensate obviously! *lol*

[winterevanesce.livejournal.com]

Haha, no problem. Well, you've inspired me to do Art. I haven't done a wallpaper in like forever, so I'm going to attempt to make one today, haha

[galathea-snb.livejournal.com]

Ooh cool .. I love to inpire people! I hope it works out! :D

*laughs head off*

First ever-changing banner sets, then ever-changing website layout, and now ever-changing LJ layout, huh?

But see how you're arting more regularly again now! Very beautiful new header, btw. I love autumn colours. That's one of your favoured stocks, no?

[galathea-snb.livejournal.com]

Heh, no I think I only used this stock once in an AtS wallpaper .. so it's a long while ago. But I use these kinds of church arches and archways pretty often if I only want a pretty background, they are easy to work with and always look beautiful. :)

[llywela13.livejournal.com]

That's kinda what I meant - the pretty arches definitely crop up over and over in your work.

[galathea-snb.livejournal.com]

Hehe what can I say, I am lazy, if something works, I am tempted to reuse it. *lol* I do try though to make it always different enough to not become boring, it's prettier than a random texture, so I prefer it to that as background. I actually very rarely use them in wallpapers, mostly in banners, awards and alike.

[llywela13.livejournal.com]

Who said boring? I never said boring. *sticks tongue out*
I said a recognised arches as a theme - you should be happy I remember your work that well! I rarely do. *G*

Awww ♥ *is happy*

Lookin’ good Chris! I love the sentiment you chose for the text. So glad to see you inspired!

[galathea-snb.livejournal.com]

Thanks, hon! ♥ Heh, the images are pretty random though, I just always search for a scene where they look at each other and then add some random background, but yeah, the text makes me all happy in connection with the caps. *g*

[ehlwyen.livejournal.com]

But that can provide some of the best art since those facial expressions were not originally paired together and then create a new type of dynamic. :heart:

[galathea-snb.livejournal.com]

That's very true, like in my new wallpaper that I posted on BF, the way Dean looks back to Sam creates completely new connotations. I am often trying to create these kinds of new constellations, I am always happy if I find 2 character caps that I can put together in a new context. In the case of this layout though the expressions were actually originally paired, they simply just look at each other in that scene from Route666. ;)

Amazing header, Chris! Winchester goodness is always great anyway, especially when it's made by you. ;)

[galathea-snb.livejournal.com]

Aww thank you Marie! *hugs*

Very cool avi btw! ;)

[shaw012145.livejournal.com]

Breathtaking. No harm in playing.

[galathea-snb.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I am so happy everybody seems to love it. :D

Heh, your avi always makes me want to re-watch Life On Mars! :D

It looks great! The colours rock!! I've also been itching to change mine, but I suck at coding, so I've been putting it off. Thought I'd try something this weekend though. You've inspired me too!

[galathea-snb.livejournal.com]

Oh it's always beyond cool if people feel inspired by what I do! :D I am not really good with coding either, but adding a header and changing the colours isn't actually too difficult. :)
