Non-fic stuff

Argh! LJ has changed its stupid header thing at the top, and now I have this REALLY ANNOYING white dialogue bubble at the top of my friend's page giving me the option of picking one of my flist filters. I CAN'T GET RID OF IT. There's no 'x' out thing, and it's big and hides a chunk of text there.

How can I go back to what I had before? The whole thing is ugly and I want it back to what it was!

:::ETA:::

We also appear have comment notification delays once more. Woo.

I don't know. I liked the navigation strip, but had it set to custom colors, and now it's black.

*scowls*

Mine was custom and the new one appeared black until I returned to it some time later and now it's back to custom....

Damn that thing is really frakking ugly!
Awesome that I went to the trouble of learning a bit of custom css to make my journal less horrendous and now i get that ugly piece of crap right in the middle of my friends page >:(

I'm having similar issues...though, I kinda like the new layout on the header that is all weird and confusing to me right now. But all my other settings (link titles & the links themselves) as well as the layout itself is all changed and won't change back!

...so frustrating to come do a quick check of my f-list and find everything all crazy crazy! I feel your pain.

I can see this is going to eat the next few hours of my afternoon, chaning things back and all. Maybe I should just wait and hope it all straightens itself out, though I doubt it.

Profile>Journal>Journal Style>Customize Selected Theme>Display, Navigation Strip, uncheck both "Always show on my journal/community" and "Always show on any journal or community I view"

Gone on your journal and everywhere you go in lj

eta: whelp, that seems to no longer work. >:|

Weird….

*kicks LJ*

Why fix things that weren't broken? GRR!

I had that bubble too, but it's gone now, and I don't know what I did to make it go away.

Same here. So confusing.

OMG it's hideous! Luckily I'm not getting the dialogue bubble (maybe b/c I have Firefox??), but the header is so ugly. AND notification delays again? Is LJ ever again gonna not suck?

Whaaaaat. My header just, as I clicked on your LJ. turned from the new black back to the old header again. LJ is so weird lately.

I didn't notice the change at all until you pointed it out. At which point I went "excuse to redesign!"

I also never got the dialog bubble, so that probably helped the positive outlook on it. . . .

Oh LJ, when will you learn? We don't like change!

What the heck are these changes?! It was fine before!
How do I filter out communities from my friend's page now?! I have to go through countless comm updates to see new journal posts?! This is not awesome!
sorry I can't help with your problem though!
