[livejournal.com profile] eor's got this new LJ style, and I like it so much, and it allows tags, and ... damn.  I want to use it myself.  But I don't want to be a copycat. :)  And I don't want to be frivolous and inconsistent, tossing out old journal styles.  Of course, he copied my journal style when we first started, only in a different color.  And I am in my fifth year with this journal, and I don't think I've made any changes to the style in all that time. 

ETA: There, what do you think? I think the color scheme ("Grays") keeps enough of the feel of the old style.

Edited once again to add:

I have been wondering about these two options on my "Edit Personal Information" page since I first made my journal, and today I played around with them a bit, but I can't see any difference in comments on my or anybody else's journal if they're turned on:

Add &nc=xx to comment URLs
Check this if you want to append the comment count to URLs to make your browser possibly display the links in a different color.
View comment pages in your journal style?
Check this option to view comment pages in your journal style when following links from your friends page.

If someone can tell me what they're supposed to do... well, I'm just curious. I've seen that some people can get their comments page to display in the style of their journal, and I can't figure out how to do that (or if I really want to - I don't want to confuse the non-LJ-people who read my journal.)

I like the new style and also like the colours, they fit very well with your default icon :) I can't remember the old style though, since I mostly read the flist in the flist, not in their own journals :P

View comment pages in your journal style, means that indeed the comments page does display in the style of your journal, not the style of the journal of the person you're commenting to. I have that set as well, since I sometimes found other layouts confusing.
