• Themes Thursday

  Wow, it's already Thursday! This week is flying by!
  

  meganalissa left a comment on last week's Themes Thursday post that matched our sentiments exactly: "With all these great themes I'm tempted to change my site every week."
  

  With the new themes directory, we hope the hunt for cool new themes will easier and that you change your themes as often as you like. Don't forget, if you come across a theme you like but don't want to commit to just then, you can save that theme and use it at a later time. The themes are saved in "your themes" in the edit themes menu.
  

  This week's featured designer, jdncl2, was discovered when we were tagging themes for the directory. We kept coming across her fun designs and were impressed with each new one we found. Here are a few of our favorites below. For more, check them out here

  Here's one for St. Patrick's Day
  

  
  

  X: How long have you been a Xanga user and how did you find xanga?
  

  I have been a Xangan since 2006. My best friend used it, and when my husband pipelined and we traveled a lot, it was the easiest way for us to keep in touch.
  

  X: Do you have a design background or any previous experience in making layouts?
  

  I started making xanga themes because I was bored. After I got the hang of it, I really had fun doing it, but prior to that day, I had no real experience making backgrounds or themes.
  

  X: How do you come up with your themes? What’s your inspiration?
  

  I think of upcoming events, and look for ideas that are theme friendly. I put the two together, use my imagination, and wala! New themes =) I've asked around to my xanga friends, and used what they've told me they would like to make themes also.
  

  X: What’s your favorite theme, out of the ones you made so far?
  

  I love all of my themes, and as long as I've thought of it, I can't decide my favorite. I never share a theme until it's perfect in my eyes, so I end up loving them all!
  

  X: What do you like most about themes?
  

  I like that u can customize themes differently. You can use the same background 20 times and have a unique theme each time.
  

  X: What’s your favorite xanga feature?
  

  My favorite xanga feature would have to be that you can check only your friends profiles that have posted new info. I love that you can see everyone or just one person, and the different blogrings are awesome!
  

  X: What do you like most about xanga?
  I love how easy xanga is to use. Learning themes was difficult at first, but very simple after only a little practice.
  

  X: What do you like to do in your spare time- hobbies? interests?
  I love scrap booking and crafts. I love to crochet blankets and pillow covers. I play with my 2 puppies a lot, and I love babysitting!
  

  Thanks so much to jdncl2 for being our featured themes designer of the week! Keep the great designs coming!
