Pixylated Goodness

How about a site tweaking over here at Munuviana? I was talking [e-mail] to Pixy earlier today and he has agreed to let me do a few site tweaks to our group blog.

Now everyone knows that we will never agree on any one thing over here. Hell, we couldn't agree on what color the little logo button should be. So, I don't think I want to go that route and end up in the middle of a big argument.

What I have in mind is this: I want to skin this site with stylesheets from all the MuNuvians. There are some really good designs out there that would look neat in this site everyonce in a while. In order to do that, you will have to e-mail me your stylesheet or favorite skin from your site. Then, I will do the dealy that makes it all work real pretty and everything.

Plus I want to add the show comment script from Scripty Goddess so we don't have to wait for the stupid comment window to pull up so we can read the comments. And I wanted to add a little color to this main page so it doesn't look so... "templatey". Maybe do a rotating tagline/quote at the top of the page. Send me some ideas for that too.

I'll be able to start working on that as soon as I help Linda get up and running at Civilzation Calls, so you have some time to send me your stuff.

If you want to put your stylesheet in the skins, mail it to: MadfishWillie [at] hotmail.com It would be best if it is saved as a .doc file attachment as my e-mail does weird stuff sometimes to .txt files and will not allow code in the message body.

I'm looking forward to doing this for the group blog and giving it a bit of a facelift.

1 I was messing around in one of my images programs and decided to try my hand at some buttons for the sidebar. Go over HERE to see them.

Tell me what you think... really... don't hold back... you haven't so far....

3 Mr Pixy:

Do you have a little Pixy Misa button other than the South Park Pixy button on your site? I put that one on the site credits on the SAPSA site but it looks too funny... I'm laughing out lous just thinking about it. Anyway just wondering if you had something else maybe I could use. thnaks

4 Hey, Bartender--we already have rotating taglines!!! Pixy changes 'em every month or so. We've had "we took both pills," and the current "We spat out the pills because they tasted nasty." There was one about welcoming the alien overlords..dang! my memory is not what it used to be! There must've been at least a half dozen very funny taglines. See if His Landlordness has a copy somewhere for posterity....

5 Quick question (as I have not intention of changing mine):
Where is the linker to all of the tiny MuNu buttons we had a while ago???

6 I'm going to have to learn how to make a style sheet first.
No, that would be second. But it's a lovely idea, to personalize the groupy place.

8 Leave one skin without all the bells and whistles. My connection at work times out on your site before anything loads.

9 LeeAnn,
you don't "make" a stylesheet; you "email" it. You already have one, silly!!
Isn't caring too much for yer own good about stuff just *shiver* wonderful?

10 See, there ya go.... wouldn't know my own stylesheet if it crept up my drawers and bit me.
But now that I've poked about a bit (about a bit, about a bit... sounds rhyme-y) I discovered it.
Ah, the things you learn by pokeage.
