Okay, I’m almost done. I’m sure it’s not perfect and there are lots of little things running around the place that need tidying up.
I’m not happy with the last links (rss, xhtml etc) as I haven’t figured out where to remove the underline, but with enough experimenting I will.
It could have probably been a cleaner style sheet and I did intend to have it as such but then I got tired and thank God for Mozilla Firefox extension EditCSS as I just kept copying in each element and adjusting it until I was happy. So hopefully I will find it.
I probably have some more tweaking to do but I’ll copy the test file to the index and see what happens.
If you look, you’ll see only colours have really changed but I liked the nice clean style of the default installation look and changing it was hard.
The dragon in the corner is temporary until I get a new one.

ME — Lilandra @ 12:49 pm
For various reasons I’ve called myself Lily online.
It was almost a natural progression from my name or from Lilandra.
And then one day I complained on DelphiForums that I couldn’t do a quiz because I didn’t have a middle name and my friend Lenny said, well if your name was Lily Marie Thomas you would do this “…” but I had to explain that well I had no Marie equivalent but I did like the sound of that. So I went to one of those name websites (you know numerology, or they give you meanings of names etc) and went through all the Lily sounding names and she looked at them too and we hit upon me being Lylia Marie Thomas. I actually like it. It’s not as good as my name but it’s fun :-)
One day I will find the links for all these posts and websites and put them here.
But that’s not the freaky thing. The Jehovah Witnesses came to call at my door again today. I’m waaaaay too polite and don’t really know how to send people away. Maybe I should’ve just stayed curled up under my covers and ignored them but anywayz.
So she was trying to remember my name (or maybe pronounce it from the mailbox which is another chore and my former/neighbour/*stalker* did that too…which is why I told him he was a stalker) and she came out with Lilia or Lylia or was it Lily? Maybe she really was going from a month old memory because the spelling of my name doesn’t lead to that pronunciation. But either way, it is freaky to have someone knock on your door and call you by one of your online names or two of them. If some how she’d channeled Lilandra I would’ve slammed the door in her face (or froze and said more than I’m happy with my religion). Of course she could be a stalker from online places…
It’s just too weird.
