Erm.

Anybody know how people get those nice narrow columns of text in the normal (unformatted) lj entry style? CSS doesn't work in the entry of course, and preformatted font with a width value thing isn't working.

Is it inline CSS? Margin or something? Does inline CSS even work in lj (not in the journal styles, I mean, but in the actual entries)? Or maybe tables? Or maybe I've dreamed up the whole thing. Hmm.

ETA: Answered! [livejournal.com profile] wintermute_lj is fantastic!!

I did some levels and brightness/contrast adjustment and hue/sat but the effect to get the soft kind of texture is paint.net's surface blur, which when I found it made me quite happy.

You are very welcome - I am just so very pleased about the table, I'm gonna be smiling for a long time :)

oooh I'll have to check that place out! thx!

lol... the table trick is something most people overlook when looking for solutions, but most of the time simple is best!
