That is a very striking look and that photo really makes it. I really love the look of the stars shining through a lot. Plus, I think this is the second ever light on dark theme I found comfortable to read.

You might want to have a look a wikimedia commons for panorama photos, lots of them have remix licences. I've gotten things from there before.

I took a quick look at the live preview and I noticed something you likely would never see unless you have a very wide display like I do, the "Powered by Dreamwidth" is way, way over on the right triggering a scroll bar. This seems to happen at very close to 1600 px for me--I opened up my inspect element panel and it popped right back into place.

You've floated it left, but it needs a clear: left on it to make it drop down below the other module for certain.

Thanks! There's always something soothing about blue.

Awesome tip. I found a perfect image easily, and the live preview is now updated with the new version.

Tweaked the CSS issue, too -- can you tell me if it worked?

If you hadn't told me you'd changed the image, I would have never noticed!

The floating module seems all fixed to me, too.
