Normally I don't want to change the header because if I make a layout I really like the images I choose for the layout.

No, it doesn't bother me, I would just say ask, worst I could say is no but I am bendable about that because people have different interests and of course the banner is usually where it is expressed.

...it took me forever to load all those images in my photobucket.

Hmm, I need to ask because I am seeing a black background on the mini images in your journal and the sidebar background are odd. Which is weird, I want to know if it is just me.

I mostly write slash, so don't look if your eyes might be burned out of your head or something. LOL.

Ha! You need to pass by my regular journal at livejournal. (scotchsour) Believe me, slash is my default setting. :D
