So I thought that, with all the upgrades non-Premium Xanga users have been getting, I could get away with not paying for Premium membership ever again. Except for additional picture space, which I don’t need, non-Premium and Premium are almost the same thing.
Almost.
The perk that isn’t mentioned is that Premium members get to customize their Xanga skin without being reduced to using a plain picture in the back. And for some reason, having a customized skin tailored to my own needs is really important to me. $25 a year important.
And I didn’t realize this until my Premium membership expired and my Xanga skin was deleted. I tried my best to recreate it again, but as you can see–it really looks like crap.
So now that I know that as long as I am obsessed with the aesthetic beauty of my page, I will keep paying for Premium.
And that means I am going to write more. About anything. Even shit that I would never write about. Like this topic.

So that’s why your xanga is so fancy. Cheater =)
Me too, it’s a sad addiction, but what can we do? Give in, that’s all. LOL
RYC: ohh weird, it’s like the reviews don’t want to show up with the new skin at all… i even tried playing with the link to see if something slightly different would work, no luck =( if i find a solution i’ll let you know
