My Header

Is it just me, or is my page very, very boring looking?

I don't know what the deal is but everything on my page is boring, almost like I need to do a few touch-ups to make my page look awesome.  One of those touch-ups being CSS journals.  Now, I like the look of them very much, but I can't code, nor do I have a clue to code anything besides some knowledge in Visual basic.  In other words, could some point towards an extremely simple tutorial, or would someone be willing to give me some sample code?

Additionally, I'd like to make a shoutboard with some stuff in it (monthly feature?), as well as a better looking I.D.  Following this same trend, is it about time I put up that "My friends" list?  Personally, I don't like how it only shows your recent watchers, rather than a myspace-esque "top 10."

As for the I.D., well, what do you guys think of my current one?  Would I be better off going for a more "artistic" I.D., or more of a "showcase" style I.D.?

Some new features are out there, maybe I should make a couple wishlist items?  How about favorite articles?  Anyway, what I'm trying to say is, what do you (my watchers/visitors) want to see on my page?

#Apophysis is not dead...just, taking a little nap.

I don't code, I enslaved a friend to do it for me. ;)

As for your friends list, uncheck everyone but your top 20 friends, then hit update. Then they're all that will show. It's only cycling through your most recent because it's default to add everyone to your friends list, but in the friends manager you can fix that. Each time you watch someone new, uncheck the friends box once they're in your list and update it. That should fix it.

Good idea, I'll have to give that a go.

[link] It's the beginner level and there's a link to an evolution. I haven't tried it yet but I've heard good things so I've kept it fav'ed for when I have time.

Oh thank you, that looks somewhat easy to follow, the advanced one is a blur though. =D

Good, I'm glad it helped. I haven't looked at the advanced one. I would expect it to be gibberish until you've finally done one.

For me your journal is just fine. My dA time is limited and I can't do all the fancy journals justice :D

Yeah, the journal system looks quite good, maybe it's how I have to make my header button and I.D. look like the dA color scheme. :|
