My "Grimoire" New Looks

How do you like my grimoire new looks? I was tinkering with the template many days ago. Now it looks more... "bookish", yes?

Indeed. More like a grimoire now

Except that the pages aren't look like a literal page

Give me a break you two. I don't know how to make the content's background looks like an old pages, "yet". *back to readers* Hmm, why not let me walk you through how to create something like this? Should be nice to be able to decorate your blog.

Even though you only changed the background

And also the header's background

And changed the color of the content's background

And changed the font family of header's title and description

Argh! You guys are so noisy! I'm starting this tutorial! *get into a lab coat and put on glasses* I'm going to assume you already have a blogger account and a blog.

First, let's try changing the background.
1. Go to your blogger admin and click on 'Template'.
2. On Template, click on 'Customize'.



This will open a page with title 'Blogger Designer Template'. Now...
1. Click on 'Background', then click on the down arrow beside the current background image, whatever it is. This will pop up a window.
2. Then on the newly popped up window, select 'Upload image', then click on 'Choose File' button. This will pop up another window, where you can pick an image from your computer. Also, if you want to make the image fill the whole background, as recommended, the image dimension should be 1800x1600 pixels(px).
3. Then click 'Done' button and 'Apply to blog' to finish changing your blog's background image.



After applying your image, it's nice to play with these three options (If your image is not around 1800x1600 px).
1. 'Alignment' will position your image depending on your choice.
2. 'Tile' will repeat your image until it fills the screen (To see the effect, use an image that has smaller dimension from 1800x1600 px).
3. 'Scroll with page' will move the image as you scroll down the blog if you tick it and will make the image fixed to your screen if you don't tick it.




That's for putting up custom background, now let's get on to how to change the header background.

First you need to...
1. Go to your blogger admin and click on 'Layout'.
2. Click on the edit link on your blog's header.



A window will pop out. Now you can...
1. Either get the image from your computer, or from the web by pasting the link of the image.
2. Set the position of the image, if it's ready. 'Behind title and description' will place the image behind the title and description on your header, if you have them. 'Instead of title and description' will make the image replace the title and description, so you can't see your set title and description. 'Have description placed after the image' will put your set description under the image.



After that, just hit 'Save' and your image is on the ride.

...Very interesting

...Or not

Yeah, yeah. Like your comments are more interesting.

Graduated!

As the title implies, I have graduated from my university around 6 days ago. (And you just made the post about it now? >w> ) ( <w<" Please... I had quite a schedule...) For someone who never attend a graduation ceremony or have it, this event was quite making me nervous, though I tried not to show it. (... Show it. Show it. Me sexy and me know it~ (~ >w<)~ ) *smacked* So, let me give you a brief description about the graduation ceremony.

There are three sessions for the ceremony because there were quite a lot of students. The attendees are from Binus Regular and Binus International. I myself, were attending the third session, and from Binus International. The students' parents and families are also allowed to attend, but they need to have the invitation cards to enter the hall. (We had our graduation ceremony in a big room called Plenary Hall, at Jakarta Convention Center, or JCC for short.)

Here's the Plenary Hall where the graduation ceremony took place.

The invitation cards were distributed two per students when we had the rehearsal for the real ceremony along with our cap and toga. (I arrived late though.)

Here's me and how the cap and the toga looks like. =3

Additional invitation cards must be purchased. The students don't need the invitation to go in though. (And I thought I need it.) I came with my father, aunt, and uncle. But since there were only two cards with me, only my father and my aunt went in. My uncle was watching from a TV outside the hall.

The ceremony was started with the rector, heads of school, and the staffs entering the hall. The rector gave welcoming speech and declared to start the ceremony. There were some opening songs but I forgot which songs. The ceremony was conducted with respective heads of school in front, giving the congratulation to each students and students of the school queuing to the stage. Their names were called one by one by, let's say the speakers, then the student whose name was called will climb upon the stage, shaking hands with the rector and the heads of school. At the last handshake, the students were given a cylinder case, wrapped with cloth and ribbon, with a little adornment rope on the lid. It's empty though. The diploma will be given around a month after the ceremony. After that, it was another sing a song and a closing statement by the rector. Then the rector, heads of school, and the staffs left the hall.

Me and my friends were taking photos after the ceremony. I also took some before the ceremony. Then I left with my father, aunt, and uncle to eat.

So yeah, I'm now a Bachelor of Computer Science! \(0w0)/

Soul Silver's Unown

Hello again. This time I'm gonna talk about capturing all Unown in Soul Silver. Why write about this? There are a lot of guides about this, aren't there? Well, maybe it's just me but there are only bits and piece of information so I tempted to make a clear one. (Yes, it's kinda late to do this... <w< But I only started to play my SS about 2 weeks ago.) By the way, Heart Gold might have the same setup, so you might be able to use this for HG, but I can't assure you it will work. Let us start.

There are 8 puzzles in Ruins of Alph. 4 unlocks the alphabet Unown, another 4 unlocks the punctuation Unown after you manage to catch all the alphabet Unown and get all the reports from a researcher there. The 4 which unlock the alphabet Unown are picture puzzles. Each puzzle unlocks a group of alphabet Unown. The other 4 which unlock the punctuation Unown are word puzzle. You are required to bring... (Spoilers! \(0w0)/ Not really...) ...a pokemon, 2 items, and a move to open chambers hidden by those puzzles.

There are 4 chambers in Ruins of Alph for these 8 puzzles, each contains a picture puzzle and a word puzzle. 2 of these chambers can be visited from the inside of Ruins of Alph while the other 2 can only be visited by traversing Union Cave.

Now all you have to do are these:

1. Complete all 4 picture puzzles - These will unlock all the alphabet Unown so you can catch them in the chamber underground.
2. Complete all 4 word puzzles - These will help you in unlocking the punctuation Unown. Note that while doing this, you need to go to the hole. Yes, you need to fall down into the hole in each hidden chamber so you can see the writings. (I only took the items and complete the picture puzzles so the punctuation Unown didn't appear... <w< ) This is proved a bit "troublesome" because you need to traverse Union Cave 4 times in order to complete the puzzles. (All those wild encounters...) Well, stock up some Max Repel if you want.
3. Capture all the alphabet Unown - This will take some time. You know the drill, throw those Pokeballs!
4. Go and get the reports from the researcher - I don't need to point out the researcher, right? There are only 3 people inside the house... Once the researcher said that "there are actually other Unown other than the alphabet Unown" then you can...
5. ...Capture the punctuation Unown - Go to the main chamber where the stair to go down is, you will trigger a small event. Now go to the researcher for a bit of texts and now you can find the punctuation Unown in the main chamber before you go down the stair.

I hope that's quite clear step to get all the Unown. d(0w0 )

A bit of trivia, do you know that the name "Ruins of Alph" is actually referring to the Unown? Or more to be specific, the alphabet Unown. 0w<

I hope you manage to get all the Unown. ( ^w^)b
