I keep seeing hints that LJ is making major changes in our flists. So what's that about? I can't seem to find anything out about it.

Hey, LJ! I do not like the new scrapbook!

I thought at first I would-- it's much faster uploading. But you seem to have take away the whole purpose of it-- before, I could arrange the pictures and captions right there at the scrapbook, and the pictures would be sized properly for an LJ entry. The whole entry would be ready to go.

Unless I am missing something it won't do any of that anymore. I just get a pageful of gigantic pictures with no captions at all. Bummer!

I did that "LJ personality test" everyone has been posting. (And how does THAT figure into "herdlike"? I'd think number of memes would certainly say something about that!)

So, dreamflower02, your LiveJournal reveals…

You are… 3% unique (blame, for example, your interest in wee hobbits), 17% peculiar, 33% interesting, 32% normal and 14% herdlike (partly because you, like everyone else, enjoy writing). When it comes to friends you are popular. In terms of the way you relate to people, you are wary of trusting strangers. Your writing style (based on a recent public entry) is conventional.

Your overall weirdness is: 24

(The average level of weirdness is: 28.
You are weirder than 55% of other LJers.)

Find out what your weirdness level is!

Just checking to see what's up with my email notifications from LJ. I've had a couple not show up today.

Anyone? Make a little test comment here?

'k thanks?

...first line meme for 2011:

January:OK,everybody, I have never even seen one episode of "Supernatural", but ramblin_rosie has written a hilarious crossover: movie-verse LotR/Supernatural.

February: I've written a drabble that is not hobbits, nor even LotR! It's set in The Children of Húrin by JRRT, and posted at great_tales: Labadal and Túrin: Pity

March:I'm taking part in the SWG's and MPTT's joint Back to Middle-earth Month Challenge, Passport to Middle-earth" My entry for today's challenge is a tribble--

April: Ephesians 4:25-32

May: I've posted a little bit of Mother's Day hobbit-fluff over at hobbit_holidays: A Mother's Work: Adamanta

June: Well, I have finally gotten on a roll with my BB!

July: Here's the story behind one of the Shire's most famous birthday gifts!

August: The Gate to Everywhere by Dreamflower

September: In today's mail was our utility bill for last month: $75 more than we expected it to be. Also in today's mail: an unexpected refund check from our insurance company for an $80 overpayment.

October: pandemonium_213 has just uploaded the latest chapter of our collaboration, "The Prisoner and The Hobbit"! Chapter 4, The Years of the Trees/Riddles in the Dark is up at Many Paths to Tread!

November: We've been having cable trouble off and on for about three days. By "off and on", I mean it has been "off" more time than "on", so I thought I'd jump in with a post in case anyone in my flist wonders why I'm being so inconsistent with commenting.

December: As promised, some pictures of Sophie! There would be more but I need new camera batteries...

Meet Sophie! Here's our Sophie! You can't really see her white chest in this pic.

mattwold wants to know here.

Thanks, rubynye!

Well, I never heard from LJ about my layout problem. I have re-set it, and I hope that it won't revert again. *sigh*

The only problem is the font size. In spite of resetting that on the style page back to what I had, the font is staying the same size. Any ideas?

Last night my layout went wonky again, and was still that way this morning, so I went in and redid it. Except-- now my font is too small.

I went to the style pages and increased the font size, but it seemed to have no effect at all even after I hit "save changes". *sigh*

Any suggestions?

Let me add my voice to most of my flist: I don't like the new LJ feature, and I won't be doing any cross-posting. I don't tweet, and I don't really use my facebook page either. And even if I did, I wouldn't cross-post.

And that little announcement on the navigation bar is REALLY annoying and intrusive!

ETA: Here's a poll: http://www.livejournal.com/poll/?id=1613756

Today I cannot seem to get behind any of the cuts on my flist, or read their comments or get to make a comment from the links on my own friend's page. I get a "page not available". I have to click on *their* LJ first, and *then* I can get in.

Very strange.

Anyone else ever have this problem?
