I am the Kat that Walks By Itself

Thank you! I spent a couple of days setting it up... it feels Iike I went through a hundred themes to find one that had the kind of look-and-feel that I wanted. And then tweaking and tweaking the config, including uploading all the flower/plant pictures for the header -- they are all photos I've taken myself. The background image is from one of my acrylic pours.

Shame the community isn't really there, particularly for fannish things.

Yeah, I find that LJ & DW are the best I know of for community-building.
