A Different Look

[ravencallscrows]

So, after last night's announcement about no pointless posts, of course, i'm bound to make a post which amounts to much ado about very little.

I've done some overhauling of my journal's presentation layer. Gone are the tangerine and dusty grape colours; in is a nighttime Seattle skyline image with sky, water and light colours selected from the image- slate and dark water blues, reflected mercury vapor light, dusk skies.

I'm going to do a bit more smoothing of the seams in the image tomorrow, because they're still a little more visible than i'd like them, but all in all, i like the look. Your input- especially if there are things which are significantly difficult to read on your monitors- is most appreciated.

Beautiful skyline! But if this is from West Seattle, isn't the image flipped?

Nevermind -- obviously from Lake Union around Gasworks Park. *d'oh*

Yup. This is from the secondary summit at Gasworks- not that they're really 'summitish', but i can't come up with any other terms to reflect hilltops at present, so this'll have to do.

Looks nice, very soothing :)

I didn't even notice the seams in the image until you pointed them out. I like the new color scheme.

Nice job!

And a beautiful skyline.
I look forward to continuing to hear about how your life is going.

My computer gave up on loading the picture. It just took too long and stopped after just the top half loaded. But I am on dialup, and I think before too much longer there will be very little on the net that someone on dialup can load, lol. :) I will just keep you on my default friends page with little graphics. It loads fast and I can read without getting frustrated. I'm sure it looks good though!

It's pretty.
