Thanks to the generosity of time_shark, I now have a presence at DreamWidth: you can find me here . . . although not much of me as yet: just a placeholder entry as proud announcement of my existence.

The red gave it away? That's my usual username unless someone's already taken it :)
I saw the "Customize" link during the "Choose a theme" part of the sign up process & I didn't like any of the default themes. I don't like all red much either, but it was quick & now it's not the same as everyone else's, so it shall do until there are more options offered
You did better than I could. I couldn't work out how to change the colour at all, except to choose the "black" option -- much preferable to the plain bog standard design I had before.

Something I'm resolutely planning to leave for another day.
