[DW-only] Help?

[thefourthvine]

I feel pathetic posting about this, but: you guys, my DW friends page (whatever, reading page, circle page, We're Happy and We Love Each Other and We Have Big Snuggles page - I am not up on the terminology, okay?) is so ugly I can't read it. I have tried and tried. (Because when something doesn't work, try again to make sure it doesn't work has always been my motto. Yes, this works fine. No, really. NO, REALLY.)

All that black behind all that white gives me a shrieking headache. And I have clicked around some, but I cannot figure out how to make it less painful. Are there simple steps I can take? Ideally that will only take a few minutes, because that's all the time I have right now? Ideally ones that will also put the names of the people posting back under the icons, where I am used to them being? (I need a big clear label, maybe on a t-shirt or something, that says: Does not handle change well. Or indeed at all. Still pretty upset about the transition to walking.)

*whines helplessly*

Dreamwidth, you are shiny and I want to love you, but right now we just can't see each other, okay? Or, to be more specific, I can't see you and still see.

Uh, "me too" on the Just Change The Colors in Negatives Style suggestion. That's what I did. I tried the two other styles available and found that I actually liked "negatives" (the default style) best, I just wanted different colors. Then on the Customize Style page I actually had fun plugging in different color codes to get a pretty look.

There's lots of advice in the getting_started community. They even have a tag called Your Journal's Appearance, so you can only see posts about that.
