I can see a couple of glitches which we'll try and get fixed, but what do you think of the skin?

So wonderful! I like the more subtle color contrast, and the buttons are so original. Nice choices!

Glad you like it  Of course the next challenge is to adapt it for the fiction pages, but as there's a new version of efiction coming out on 1st November, it's really not worth doing anything to it before then. Might add the background, leave the cream pages but do the red for the headings. That'll do for a while. Brace yourselves. Chapter 13 of Home is going up tonight!!

Thanks for all the help with the skin! I think we've ended up with something that feels cosy and right to most of us. And it's a definite change in feel for the new URL

Hi there  Long time no see - hope you're ok. That was the look we were aiming for and I think we've just about got it right. The picture's a real beauty - based on chapter 12 of 'Carpe Diem' to boot! You can just *see* that Ginny's up to no good

She is - she's done a few bits for me now and is always absolutely amazing. It's quite something to drop into this site and spend the first few minutes grinning at the banner! Glad you like it too

I love the new skin! It's absolutely gorgeous! Especially the colours and the image at the top!  Can't you tell I'm excited?

It really is a beautiful skin. Like Hershey said, it blends really well with the picture, too. Well done!

The picture is just amazing. Can't quite believe it's something from one of my stories! And parchment is just so Hogwarts... I'm really pleased with the end result. Glad you like it as well QUOTE(Jerry @ Oct 29 2005, 11:19 PM) It really is a beautiful skin. Like Hershey said, it blends really well with the picture, too. Well done! REALLY glad everyone approves. It's have been awful to have spent all this time on it and still got it wrong!
