This is a touchy subject, so I just want to remind people to be level-headed when they talk about it.
There's a difference between ethnic profiling for the sake of questioning and rooting out potential threats and beating people on the streets because of racism. You have to be careful that ethnic profiling doesn't become racism, but they aren't necessarily the same thing. Looking at the Muslim community for questioning right after 9/11 was reasonable at the time because the acts of terrorism were from within that group. This does NOT mean that being Muslim makes you a terrorist (I have several Muslim friends, btw). Unfortunately people took it too far and used it as an excuse for exercising racism. And at the risk of sounding rude, it's ridiculous to say it should never be done. You wouldn't start pulling grandmothers aside at the airport simply to avoid racial profiling, right? It's effective when implemented to a certain extent, but people must be careful not to take it too far. This is especially true since we know from history that even if a group of a certain ethnicity commits an act in the name of their group, they aren't necessarily speaking for that entire group... and sometimes people who share their sentiments aren't even the same ethnicity.
Basically, it's not necessarily a bad thing when used wisely and carefully. It should NOT be as an excuse to outright mistreat people, however.

I'm sorry if this sounds dumb, but I still haven't found a way to change my group's skin (I'm a new admin over at Colorfull-Wallies). How do we go about it changing it?

Awesome! I already had a winter wallpaper in mind ^_^

Thanks Davo! That's exactly what I was looking for :)

Anyone know the coding for changing the properties of the lines in the sidebar? (the ones below things like Joined Groups or the anime watchlist).

I may be a purple hippopotamus, but I wouldn't mind a banner contest :)

I will absolutely help! I was actually thinking about that earlier this week. This was one of the first groups I joined here, and it's sad to see it in this condition ;-; Phamthuha hasn't even signed in for several years. I'm pretty active and keep up with things here.

I will try to finish my Modern Art midterm and be a good student.

Maybe it's just me, but CLAMP's approach seems rather hypocritical considering their roots came from making doujinshi. But then pride comes before a fall, so I won't be surprised to see some falling dominoes soon, especially considering popularity wasn't enough to get an ending to X1999 (the manga).

Go with Fireflywishes advice. I've found that approach has helped me, and it doesn't involve being a jerk, like some have suggested.

I love sooooooo many, but I think my top 3 are The Little Mermaid, Alice in Wonderland, and Beauty and the Beast. I always liked the fact that they gave the little mermaid a happy ending to contrast the original story, which was tragically beautiful, but I'm glad to see it end on a lighter note as well :) It's very rare that I don't like the ones that go to the theaters (the only ones coming to mind being Atlantis and Pinocchio,the latetr really only because I never liked the story of Pinocchio to begin with).

I'm having the exact same problem. I didn't even know that clicking the blue area would check them until I read your post just now.

Thank you so much, MapleRose! This is extremely helpful! ^_^
-
Thanks for the codes! Those are extremely helpful :)
I know very little about CSS, so I'm sorry if I ask stupid things. Anyways, I noticed that my menu bar doesn't tile all the way to the end of the page where my username is, instead it stops right before the number of notes. Is there any way to make it stretch farther?
My next question: is there any way at all to make the top image longer?

For me, I have to clear my cache TWICE (hit F5 button on keyboard) in order for it to show the changes that I have made. If it doesn't show after clearing your cache just once, try again a few times before you give up on it.

To be honest, I really, really didn't like the layout when I first saw it. But I spent a nice chunk of today playing with it and now I've become rather fond of it as a whole. I don't think the new one is as easy to customize if you know nothing about CSS, but I'm willing to learn and have fun with the site as it is now. I do miss the look of making transparent tables (I don't know if you can do that or not with CSS, I know very little about it), but I've already figured out how to make the top image on my userpage taller, so that's a definite plus.
Maybe you guys will never end up liking it, and that's your feelings in the end, but I really think you should give it some time and play around with it. Who knows, you might warm up to it : )

Awesome! It's been awhile since I did a scary wallpaper XD I have some ideas though, so I can't wait to work on this!
