I read about that somewhere on the site, I think...it seems like basically you can change the font / color / background, but you can't change the actual layout of the diary?
What are CSS codes? I use basic HTML to change the layout of my diary, are CSS codes something similar?
BTW, I like the background on your diary, very pretty.

I've seen some journals that have 'borders' and things like that, but I'm not sure if they are free or paid accounts

Sorry to butt into the thread but...I'm also looking for a live journal code if someone has an extra one and could PM it to me

What kind of layout changes are you trying to do? I have a paid account, but I changed mine by doing it the way you can do it with free accounts because I found it much easier. I moved the text to one side and stuff, but it's still one basic layout style (generator). I have an LJ friend who does a lot of layout stuff, so if you get an account she may be able to help you. Also, I found the community "howto" very helpful, so you may want to check that out sometime. Good luck!!

Summerfest is the greatness, it's more exciting than you have heard. There are also mass quantities of beer mixed with much music.

Oh and don't you know it...

Don't forget Black Eyed Peas and India Arie....

I think G Love and Special Sauce might be there as well.

Has anyone used the downloadable LJ software to update/edit entries?

I'm just curious.... I think I would like to try one for fun, but I don't know which one to use

Yes...I have LJ for Windows, according to the blurb. It's really nice because it's easier to edit things and entries don't get lost when the server goes down. It also simplifies a lot of HTML (bold, italic, links) and makes working with different journals easier.
