This journal is Friends Only. Please comment if you would like to be added as a friend. As a rule, I do not friend people whose usernames I do not recognize.
This journal used to be a mirror of my main journal on dreamWidth, Laura Palmer, but LJ disabled crossposting. So if you would like to friend me (and I hope you do!), please do so there.
For my next layout (dreamWidth), do I want a Honeydukes theme or a Madam Puddifoot's theme? IRL, I would hate and avoid Madam Puddifoot's, but Valentine's Day is coming, after all (and I did find a heart confetti gif instead of snow for the background...)
So, flist, what will it be: sweets or tea?
Also, if anyone has a copy of an animated HP mood theme they can upload for me, I will love you forever!
After more than a day of trying to upload the images, here (finally) are my entries for the Quotables challenge at tv_universe: +[1] Twin Peaks +[1] Parks & Rec +[1] Game of Thrones +[1] Orphan Black +[1] Star Trek: Deep Space Nine

This week has been very bad for me (oh dear God, it's only Monday!). Beside my regular mental illness, I'm now fairly sure I have at least a mild case of PTSD. I'm not one for triggers, but given what's been going on with Trump, keep reading at your own risk.
Character Name: Lucretia Griswold TV Show:Penny Dreadful ====
Lucretia Griswold, a new character on Penny Dreadful played by Lucy Griffiths
» WHY I CHOSE LUCY: To me, this name brought to mind a character that is not necessarily modern, and since Lucy played Marian on Robin Hood so absolutely flawlessly she was my first choice for Lucretia. Also, full disclosure, she's my first choice for everything because I love her and she's perfect. She can play sweet and innocent but also incredibly strong and independent, and I think her look is perfect for a show like Penny DreadfulI'm saying she's pale, okay?
» ON THE CHARACTER: Lucretia Griswold was never content to stand still and look pretty like her contemporaries, and after a disastrous meeting with the man her father would have her marry, she ran off and away from her priviledged and sheltered life. On her adventures (which, amazingly for a single girl in Victorian London, do NOT involve prositution) she meets and befriends John Clare, an interesting man whose physical deformities mask a sweet and tender soul.
So, sanalith asked how to make animated sig tags, and I told her I would PM her details on how to use the program I use. But as I started typing, I knew it was way too much for a PM. So I ended up making a full-blown (I think) tutorial. Hopefully this will help someone.
PS- Click on the images for full size. PPS- I hope this doesn't come off as condescending. Shannon mentioned using terms a 5yr old could understand, so I hope this works...
I hope that helped. If it didn't but you think the program looks good, here's a Youtube tutorial. I didn't watch it, but hey, it was the first result when I Googled the program, so it must be pretty good.
