Please can you choose foreground and background colors that actually contrast with other a reasonable amount? Some of the journals on my friends list are getting offputtingly hard to read.
I've just been playing with the S2 layout - it can make for a very shiny journal. But there is an option there to keep the old comments style. I'm faffing and faffing....
Keep the old comments style! Mind you, I think LJ's styles stuff is fundamentally wrong-headed; I want to be able to affect the styles for the stuff I read, not the stuff I write - my friends page and _other people's_ journal and comment pages.
I don't think we'll ever see this for journals because too many people would protest that their supposed design was being suppressed by nasty people who, er, don't want to see it; but I think there's still a chance to win the battle for comments pages.
Well, I have for now (although it imposes the new one by default). I'm prettying it up (dafting it up) for *me* - so it's the bits I see that count.
I can understand making your *journal* a certain style. Although for me it's more important that the wording scattered about is reflective of my kitten-based plotting than how it actually looks. But imposing that on other people is definitely not right. But anything else just makes it harder for people to read. If comments pages jump style every time you click - it's disconcerting and harder, therefore, to follow.
