This community is for the making, sharing, and help with LiveJournal's mood theme system. It is NOT for begging for someone to make you your own personal theme. Pretty straight-forward, really. If you're not clear on the concept, please read this post. If you want to request a moodtheme (and if you don't see it here), go to moodrequests.

moodmakers is dedicated to the memory of Kelly O'Guinn (kielle/_redpanda_), who passed away suddenly on 22nd September.

Rules

  • If you take a theme, please a) tell the creator and b) credit them in whatever way they request. These are hard work!
  • If you borrow from someone, be it an icon style or a piece of fanart, ask and give credit. Creative theft is not tolerated.
  • Off-topic spam and rules-breaking posts will be delete/banned.
  • Please read our FAQ before making a request:

    • What do I need to have a mood theme?
      You need a paid account, some webspace to store your icon images, possibly a copy of WinZip (depending on the way the set is distributed), and the ability to follow directions.

    • *entitlement whine* But I don't haaaave a paid account! I wanna moodtheme for freeee!
      You're really quite stupid, aren't you? Sorry. "Paid" is a very simple word, and $5 is cheap.

    • Does anyone have a theme about [fill in the blank]?
      Check the tags, the list below, or the memories.

    • Can you make me a theme about [fill in the blank], pleeeez?
      No. We do not take requests. Trades, however, are permissible.

    • What do I need to make a mood theme?
      Google, a graphics program, an animation program (if you plan animation), and patience.

    • Can you teach me to use PhotoShop, MS Paint, etc?
      No. Most of us figured it out on our own -- so can you. However, if you have any specific questions, feel free to ask.

    • Do I need to make an icon for every single mood?
      No, though a good moodset does. You can shortcut by assigning icons to the top level of mood "families."

    • What size should I make my mood icons?
      50x50 pixels is a good standard; use your own discretion. Too big is a pain on the Friendslist.

    • How do I get LJ to make my theme public?
      Your guess is as good as ours. They don't seem to care much. :/

    • Can I add new moods to the list?
      No. You can't.

    • Aww! That sucks!
      Hey, take it to LJ. Nothing we can do about it. :)
