Ha! So in the post http://community.livejournal.com/paidmembers/22012.html they explained how to force all pages to display the way you want.

1. All colors - gone. Background = white, text = black, bars = gray. When I'm at work looking at LJ, it looks the same as work (mostly).
2. Art has been eliminated in the name of efficiency. No matter how much you think it's neety-keen that your LJ has light green text on yellow screens, all my views are now black times new roman text on a white background. Cute to you is just annoyingly hard to read to me. Want a pretty page with no substance? Go to myspace.
3. ALL PICTURES ARE BANNED unless I click on them. All your pictures, large and small, ten in a row or just one 2000x4000 pixel - gone. My f-list jumping left and right based on big picture posts? No longer.
4. All youtube and video ebeds are gone. Sure you have a right to embed instead of do links like polite people. I banned your bullshit - not that I, or anyone else, ever clicked on them anyway.
5. Mood icons = gone. Made your own pic your icon? Bye bye, I have no idea how silly you look.

If I could only figure out how to kill the side bar and make everything default to left justify...but wiping this stuff out even when I look at your pages? Wonderful.

I'm not sure I got it...I don't see that option under either style or customize style.

Editing post to make it "friendlier"

oh, crow away...

Good lord, man, I haven't even done most of these things. You're so cranky these last couple of days. ;)

sorry I misunderstood you at first. There might be a different style with the user icons on the right. OR you could pay off someone who knows CSS well and have them do an override for you.

Really? I'm actually in a good mood - perhaps when things are going well I'm less apt to censor myself. When I feel like I just lost my job in the mall food court, I tend to watch how I act a lot more closely.

Today my f-view was wacked most of the day by someone who posted pictures so you had to scroll a full screen over to see what the other 50 people wrote...

Eep not sure why your post showed up as screened?

on my style the following options are listed:
Show Userpics on Entries on your Friends Page
Show Userpic on the Entry page
Show Userpics on Comments

So that would mean only the buttons would be on the left... almost but not quite what you wanted.

Thanks for for some reason my view doesn't have those options, even using this link. It does show
Customize Your Theme

Display
Mood Themes Navigation Strip PresentationStyle
Colors
Fonts
Images
Text
Components
Links List
Custom CSS

and that doesn't appear afte rthose. BUT, that's ok - LJ is being really slow (must be a wave of customizing going on after that post) so I'm going to get back to work-work :)

Yea, I hate that, too. I have the settings so that pictures over a certain size won't load. Decreases the possibility of unexpected porn, too.

I'm glad to note that crankiness actually denotes good humor. :)

mine is on the "Display" tab when you scroll down to the "Advanced Options"

Ah! Got it - many thanks!
Er, edited...didn't get it, my options are similar but different.
Show link underline
Display your userpic with your entries
Display the edit, memory, next/previous, etc icons on the entry view
Toggle to show the memory, edit, etc icons on the Entry View page.
Use custom form elements

but now that I think about it, I do kinda need/use icons. Hmm.

Hmm. This post does not seem to address how to add a "remove this friend from my default view" button. Darn.

If you're serious and IT'S NOT ME I can show you how to do that, puddin'

(actually I can't - you have to do filters for that sort of thing)
