Involuntary Makeover

dolorous_ettChecked my journal this morning, and it's gone from tasetful white with grey trimmings to horrid grey boxes.
I've not been near the page where you modify this thing - I'm not even sure which page it is or how it's done. I certainly wouldn't have done it on purpose. It's drab and ugly this way, and I don't like it. I feel like Trinny and Susannah have snuck into my flat without my leave and thrown out all my favourite clothes.
Has this happened to anyone else? More importantly, can anyone tell me how to fix it?

ETA: With help fromkrislaughs and swythyv, I have found the settings and sent the vile grey boxes packing. I don't much care for this sappy mauve colour - but it'll do till I can find something that's a bit more me. It's not a personal statement, OK?
___________
ETA2: Found a layout that won't give people migraines and doesn't involve blue or mauve! (I have nothing against those colours, but this just isn't a mauve sort of journal). A little pretentious, perhaps, but far more my cup of tea.

Date: 2006-03-16 06:05 pm (UTC)I'd have changed right back to how it was, but they've subtly changed the colours on offer so that the grey one now has a royal blue border - which is absolutely not the way things should be.
Anyway, glad you approve. And thanks for the link - all is now explained, and I can stop grousing!
