moodtheme, ahoy!

I made a Pushing Daisies Ned/Chuck moodtheme! Ftw, y/y? Y/y! This was made mostly just to amuse myself and [livejournal.com profile] andsheloves (enaaaabler, you are ;) but i thought i might as well make it public on the off chance that anyone outside of my flist wants to use it. I'm not totally happy with it, but i'm at the point where it's going to break my brain if i spend any more time on it. So ... *tada!*



download .zip / full preview

(If you're not sure how to install a custom moodtheme, go and read the dandy instructions over at crackified - but make sure you use the adminconsolecodes.txt included in the zip file for this this particular theme, because the sizes are different - and if you have any problems please comment here, not over there ;)

The images are a bit larger than most, but thanks to my super screen resolution i nearly went blind making this, so. *blinks* I tried to keep it as Ned/Chuck (as opposed to Ned, Chuck) as i could, and for the most part even if they're not both in the cap, they're reacting to each other, or whathaveyou. Also, i tried to make it literal - i don't like picking a mood in the drop-down and then having to change it to something else because the picture that goes with it isn't a literal match. I'm picky, sue me ;)

I used all my own caps for this, hence the lame re-colouring effort. *fail* The zip file has all 132 mood images in .jpg format, as well as the adminconsolecodes.txt file - if you have any other questions, just ask. And if you do take this, please comment/credit :)

HA! ICON-SNAP!

I'm going to stop replying to myself now. COME BACK FROM HOLIDAYS OMG. I'M SO LONELY.

Of course you can steal it! And OMG, someone who actually knows who she is! *falls over* I haven't seen her on stage, which is ridiculously pathetic since she does a lot for the MTC and... well, I live here. *headdesk*

Gone-to-Hollywood (i.e. they've done work OS, they're famous in the US, whatever... I basically seperate my favourites into local and international - TV shows included!) for me would be Cate Blanchett, Toni Collette and Rachel Griffiths. Love them to bits. I'm a bit of a sucker for Nicole Kidman too, admittedly.

Long conversation? Gah. I just rambled for waaaay too long. :P

Cup-pies!! *stuffs face* I'm so tempted to actually make those, you know. They looked so good. *lol*

Thanks! And enjoy! :D

Oh, this is lovely and wonderful. I'll probably be using this sometime soon. Thanks for making it up for us! :)

[identity profile] bertiebob.livejournal.com 2007-12-23 07:33 am (UTC)(link)
Aww, thank you so much! It was fun to make, though i'd think twice about doing another mood theme - i got a little obsessed ;)

[identity profile] oceaneyed8.livejournal.com 2007-12-23 11:11 pm (UTC)(link)
My roomie actually makes them...and was making them long before that episode aired! They are sooooo good. If I can get the recipe, do you want?

[identity profile] bertiebob.livejournal.com 2007-12-24 04:35 am (UTC)(link)
I would absolutely love the recipe! I was going to try and wing it for our post-christmas-christmas party in a few weeks, but i'd much prefer a recipe to follow ;)

YOU WIN THE INTERNETS.

I've had my current mood theme for ages, and it's time for a change, but I decided I was only going to roll over for a really good Ned/Chuck one, and you've gone sooo far beyond that. It's perfect. ♥♥♥

Memming, using and crediting. Thanks so much! :D

[identity profile] bertiebob.livejournal.com 2008-01-25 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh my gosh, what a lovely lovely comment! Thank you so much, you totally made my day.

[identity profile] endlesswonder.livejournal.com 2008-01-28 02:31 am (UTC)(link)
No problem. And trust me, the feeling's totally mutual.

I really love mood themes that work fine in an objective way, but when you know the show well and understand what's happening in the scene in each picture, the matching of the image to the mood takes on a special significance (like Ned at the window for "jealous" or the end of 1x07 for "loved"). This is definitely one of those mood themes.

I'm uploading it to my LJ right now. :D

OMG! I think I've fallen in love!! I'm totally snagging and totally using right now so that I can have the wonderful excuse of re-doing my layout. As if I ever need one. :P

Muchas gracias!

I took the liberty of getting this theme without asking you first. You are properly credited.
I really liked the expressions you picked. I hope it's ok with you too.

Thank you so much! These are beautiful! Using and will credit! :-)

*beams* Thank you so much!

(hah. i currently have two assessments overdue, so, obviously i'm sitting here answering old comments and considering making a new moodtheme *lol*)
