instructions for installing patriciasings' Krycek theme

first of all: you don't have to upload the icons to your own server space. I know a lot of people want to use mood themes who don't have websites, and don't want to mess with opening an account someplace just to upload mood graphics. The coding contains the full URLs to each icon, so it should work fine. *If you do feel like saving and uploading the images to your own server, just change the URLs to your own, of course. :)

* To see all of this theme's icons, click here (opens in a new window)

* You're welcome to use these for any online journal if you know the installation procedure - I'm only familiar with LiveJournal, so that's what these instructions are for
* The following is based on directions by Kyla, and CK/Dreamtrance

  1. you have to have a LiveJournal paid account, otherwise they won't let you use custom mood themes

  2. right-click and save this file: install.txt

  3. you need to be logged in to your journal, then go here: LiveJournal Admin Console
    (it will open in a new window so you can keep following these directions)

  4. in the little box, enter: moodtheme_create "krycek moods" "patriciasings' Krycek theme"
    and then click 'execute'

  5. the following page will say "Success. Your new moodthemeid=a number." That number is really important to remember so write it down somewhere.

  6. do not close this window yet.

  7. open "install.txt" (the file you downloaded in step 2.)

  8. change all the "####" to whatever the number of your mood theme is (the one LiveJournal generated for you).

    for example: moodtheme_setpic #### 2 http://www.nsyncable.com/journalmoods/krycek/angry.jpg 80 50

    #### would be your number (and everything else would stay as it is)

  9. go back to the browser window. In the little box underneath where it gave you your mood icon set number, copy and paste all the codes from install.txt (after you've changed the #### to your own number). Click 'execute'

  10. if it worked, you'll get a page that says 'data inserted' over and over and over. (it if says "Failed! You do not own this theme!," all that means is that you probably didn't change all the codes from #### to your number, so check your .txt file carefully, then try again)

  11. go to Modify Journal

  12. in the drop down menu to select your mood icon set, choose 'Krycek moods' (It should be at the bottom of the list under 'Personal Themes')

  13. click 'Save Changes'

  14. email me at xphile78@gmail.com (with "Krycek theme," or something similar, as the subject) if you're going to use them, so I can keep track of how useful my mood themes are -- and so I can notify those using the theme if anything changes, goes wrong, etc.

Enjoy!! :)
