Ummm.

I logged out. I logged back in. It reset my site scheme from dystopia to the new Xcolibur.

That's really, really annoying. I actually wish you could get a cookie for site scheme on your computer and keep it even while logged out, but at the very least you'd think there would be some way to keep track of what scheme you want whenever you log in, instead of having it go away.

Bleh. It's still pretty, and it's still less than user friendly in a number of ways. At least it let me set it back (but took me a moment to find the link for it - that's at the bottom of the page, where all the other links are informational rather than control links...).

Yes, UI is a hot button of mine. No, I don't like this one, and I didn't like finding out it would come back after I got rid of it, either. Dystopia's so-so for appearance (I like it okay, but it doesn't knock me over, either), but it is still more usable. Thank goodness.

There is a page you can visit to set your scheme prefs. The problem is that your scheme preference was stored as "use default" instead of "use dystopia." Go to http://www.livejournal.com/manage/siteopts.bml, click Dystopia, and you'll always get it when logging in from now on.

No, I know about that page. I used it as soon as this came out, which is why I've had dystopia until now. When I logged out and back in, I had xcolibur again.
