The Dreamer is a comic by Lora Innes. It is the story of a girl (Bea) who finds herself having recurring, vivid dreams of 1776. It can be quite an adventure to go to bed in 2008 and wake up in the beginnings of the Revolution! The historical cast is composed of real figures in history, including Lt Colonel Thomas Knowlton, General William Howe, and even Nathan Hale (also, there is a guest appearance of George Washington!). I've heartily enjoyed the journey ever since I found Lora Innes's DeviantArt account. I recommend this story to any history buff, romantic or adventure fan.

I was wondering if you could make me a Doctor Who layout?
Alyssa: Shows - Doctor Who[info]midenianscholar on March 22nd, 2009 02:40 pm (UTC)
I'd be delighted to! Please go have a look at the Custom Layouts page and you can see the charges and such. Let me know what you'd like!

First, I'd like to thank you for introducing me to such a wonderful story! I've already gone and shared it with several friends and now they're all readers. Thank you!

Second, I've added this as my layout and it is not displaying properly (see screenshot). All I've done is chosen the "Flexible Squares" layout with the default layout stylesheet disabled and then inputted my own URLs for the images. Is there a step that I've missed? Also, I have checked it in both IE and FireFox and it is the same result, and it looks like the layout is no longer displaying properly on your live preview.

Thank you for any help!

Great! One of the reasons I posted the layout was to recruit new readers. :)

When you upload a large image to Photobucket, Photobucket will shrink it. This is easily fixed. Just upload the header again, but be sure you've changed your Photobucket settings to "Reduce to: 1 Megabyte file size."

Not snagging the layout, but I cannot thank you enough for the rec of the comic. The header image here intrigued me enough, and I ended up reading the entire archives in one sitting. ♥
Alyssa[info]midenianscholar on May 20th, 2009 11:48 pm (UTC)
Great! I love the comics so much. I'm glad to recruit another fan.

Oh, there's a moodtheme?! That's awesome :D I'm snagging that for later use. These are fantastic; you've done a great job.
Alyssa: Dreamer - The Kiss[info]midenianscholar on May 28th, 2009 02:04 pm (UTC)
Thanks! I'm unabashedly proud of that moodtheme... I've been using it for several months, and I am still in love with it. :D

sageleaves[info]sageleaves on October 26th, 2009 05:47 pm (UTC)
hey - I love your layouts, and I am creating a temporary other journal, and love this one. Sadly, I am a total noob at all this. How am I able to download the images and get them onto my profile? (after setting the layout to flexible squares and putting in cleaned CSS in the custom box)
~Thank you for your help, and keep creating awesome designs!
Alyssa: Stock - Man's Long Journey[info]midenianscholar on October 26th, 2009 08:39 pm (UTC)
To download them:
1) Click on the links.
2) When the pictures come up, right click and save-as.
3) After they're saved, go set up an account with photobucket or another image host site (www.photobucket.com). If you don't want an account, you can just use tinypic.com, I think.
4) Upload the picture you saved onto that site. Take the direct link they provide and stick it in the codes where you see it is already there. (i.e. "Header" image would go under .header)

Hope that isn't incredibly confusing... my brain melted at about noon today. :)
