John Locke (Lost) Mood Theme

preview - zip file - code


INSTRUCTIONS!
1) Download the zip file and unzip it to your Desktop. (or other such rememberable place).
2) Go to the Admin Console and put the following in the text box: moodtheme_create "Locke" "mood theme by melx". Click 'execute' and you should get a 'Success!' message with a 5 digit number. Remember this number. (Writing it down could help!)
3) Open your FTP client (or other such means) and upload all the images to your server. It is a smart idea to place them in their own directory.
4) Now you need to open the .txt in a text editor and do some search and replace. Where you see #####, you need to replace it with the number from earlier. And where you see http://www.yourdomain.com, you need to replace it with the URL where you uploaded your images.
5) Go back to the Admin Console and paste in the edited .txt. If you did everything correctly, you should see a listing of the moods with 'Data Inserted' and such.
6) Next step is to go to the Modify Journal page and select the 'Locke' mood theme from the drop-down list or go to Custom Mood Theme Editor.
You will need a paid account to use this mood theme. If you're going to use it, please comment and let me know. Credit is a must.

Thanks to the following for screencaps:

This is the first mood theme that made me get off my ass (er, or perhaps more accurately sit on my ass) and do all the fiddly stuff to make it work.

Just letting you know, though... embarrassed.png is typoed as embarassed.png in the zip. *spent five minutes trying to figure out what I'd done wrong*

Oh I'm SO stealing that one! Will credit of course :)
(as soon as I've reactivated my paid account)

Thanks for making it! I was wondering if something like that would ever turn up!

Also, would you mind if I'd link from toq.net to this post?

Oo, a Locke mood theme. Thank you! This would go great with my Locke layout, only I don't have a paid account so I saved for when I do. :D

They're lovely, and I would really like to use them. However, when I attempted Step #2, I got this message:

Failed!

Sorry, your account type doesn't let you create new mood themes.

Help?

Wow, this set gave me the motivation to use a custom mood theme! Only problem is that in step four it says "Now you need to open the .txt in a text editor and do some search and replace." I am assuming that .txt file should be around when I un-zipped, but I can't find it anywhere. What am I missing? If you could help I'd be very grateful, I really want to use this theme!

It APPEARS that you can do this but you have to plug in the url for each yourself. Or you can have some repeat for other moods...which I may do at first just due to time and finish later.

Or maybe it will stop me at some point but hasn't yet (it said Plus could use them so I tried step 2 and didn't get what you say or get denied but got a list where I can . Otherwise, I'm stealing this, this is great! Thank you!
