Hey everyone! I just wanted to divert your attention to something really cool and unique. DA user and loyal Ballad reader made a shelf with the Ballad characters painted on it!! This is probably one of the coolest and most interesting things that's ever been done for a fanfic I've written XD!! Thanks, Aly!!

You can find the shelf under my favorites, or you can find it at ~QueenAlyssibeth's DA!!



Now, I have a question for those of you that might be a little more fluent in how DA's journal entries work... (more like a few random requests because I've never had good luck with DA's journals).
+ How do I make words bold or italicized, and how do I adjust the size? (is it just standard HTML or bbcode? Because neither of those have worked for me in the past).
+ How do I link to people's profiles using their user icon? I see this done a lot in other people's journals but I have no idea how it's done.
+ How do I put a thumbnail of someone else's work into my journal entries? (This would have been helpful for today's...)

edit:
Okay, well, let it be said that the FAQ can sometimes actually come in handy. I've also discovered that I think I need a premium account to embed thumbnails into my journals. I guess I'd rather save my money and get a premium account for my main account () (my birthday is coming up, and other than reviews for my fanfic CAPES and BALLAD, a trial premium membership for ~ros would be kinda cool...

Now that I know how to link to stuff I am SO gonna abuse it...
