New journal header: accomplished!
(That was the result of the "every five papers you grade, you get to spend twenty minutes fooling around in Photoshop" bribe I made myself. Worked fairly well, I'd say.)
I still can't figure out what I need to change in the CSS code to make the Previous 20/Next 20 links show up gray rather than blue, but I don't know that I care anymore. Actually, I may go back and make my other links various colors, because while monochrome goes nicely with the header, I'm already missing color. Hmmm.
I will say that CSS seems more intuitive than HTML. I was thinking it was scary, but it's really not that bad. Of course, I was just customizing an existing theme; rewriting one from scratch it probably a lot different. Still, not too bad at all.
