It's been a busy night. You can now edit your own custom color themes.
The color picker comes with no instructions other than these few simple ones.
Open up the custom color control panel by clicking on the color palette icon in your control panel.
To change a color, click on the color in your swatch table.
The color slider widget saves the color into a little palette to grab later, if you want to return to the original color.
Now simple change the slider to change the color. When you have changed enough color you can save your theme.
Image paths such as the background image and hr can both be absolute URLS.
Once you have saved your theme, you can select it from the theme list by clicking on the default face icon in the themes list at the top of the site.
You cannot and will not be able to change the layout, it you wish a different layout, you can use the estrip api.
I will probably update the interface soon but for now it is functional.
Hint: you may need to empty your cache if you find your themes color changes are not taking hold.
Your welcome,
Paul
You can begin butchering my carefully planned designs!

New Feature Prevents Journal MishapsCategory: estrip
I added a feature that asks if you would like to save your journal text when you navigate away from your journal in the middle of writing an entry.
You used to just lose all your text if you left your journal in the middle of writing, now it gives you the option to save it. The data is saved until you come back to publish your entry or 7 days have passed.
You welcome,
Paul

Bumper Stickers OrderedCategory: estrip
The bumper sticker orders went in today. We will be receiving 250 magnetic bumperstickers in approximately 7-10 business days. Thanks to everyone who donated to the fund.

I think it is awesome that you are getting magnetic ones. That way if people change cars they can change bumper stickers and they arn't permanent. Since they are magnetic they can be put on other things that are metal but arn't cars like say mail boxes for example.

Cool - orange? Even better.

Can I choose winter theme to start, then save my changes to it as u_twisted? I'm guessing I can't overwrite a system theme, but I don't want to risk it.
