Valentine Book Photos!

[gategrrl]

But they're frelling HUGE, so I'm just going to post the URLs to the photographs themselves instead of hiding them behind an LJ cut.

The book as it looks open

Detail showing the beading

The cover, with a glimpse of the copper paper lining.

Handsewn glass beads at the head of the book.

I'm not sure if the other books are going to have that beading detail up at the top, but, they might.




Thanks for all who helped me figure this pesky Tag problem!

pretty!

Um...*how* do I shorten these URL tags into something managable? I totally don't understand how to do it, even after looking at the info page that tells you all about it.

You either have to use html code, which I totally suck at, or switch to the "rich text" mode when you're posting (it's underneath the text box). When you use that, a row of buttons will appear above the box. One looks like a link in a chain, representing a hyperlink. Type out the text you want to show for your link, highlight it, then click on the hyperlink button. A box will pop asking for the URL -- you can either type it out, or copy and paste it in.

I have yet to get "rich text" to work in Firefox though. The buttons show up, but they no worky. So when I post, I usually use IE instead.

try this:

[a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v635/Gategrrl/Valentine%20Book%202005/P7250002.jpg"]Descriptive name for what this picture is[/a]

Just replace the [ ] with < >.

Ah. Okay.

So. Did you look?

[lovellama.livejournal.com]

Yep! Pretty. Is the new ribbon more of a ribbon and less of a braiding?

[gategrrl.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it's a flat satin ribbon with the beading hanging down. The green strip is braided, and comes apart when I cut it. The green braiding doesn't look very "neat" although it does add more to look at.
