Let's see how I can post a photo from Photobucket here. Ugh, I have the same problem as I've recently had on LJ - when I use the embed code none the editing on Photobcuket shows here, so I have to use "Insert image" instead to make at least the size bearable.

If anybody is looking at this entry, can you see the bug in the photo? :)

LOL hello, Tia. I haven't quite figured out yet how things work here. Do I have to both subscribe to you and grant you access to achieve the equivalent of "mutual friends" on LJ? I don't know if I'm going to post anything with limited access here, but we'd better be connected just in case.

P.S. I love your kitty icon.

i gotta say that's something that has always sort of befuddled me too!! so i do both---subscribe AND grant access!! why do you have limited access on DW?

thanks! i have quite a few kitty icons, feel free to steal any icon of mine!

From:

By "limited access" I meant that I haven't posted anything friends-only here yet, to use the LJ jargon. :)

I'll find out how this subscription/whatever thing works. Just give me a little time. :D

Thank you for the offer of icons, but I'll first see how many of my LJ Icons I'm going to use here and how many more I'll have left to upload.

ah, okay, i understand what you mean by limited access now! i know if you post from DW, you can cross post to LJ (that's how i post all my entries....) and if you post friends only DW it should be your default on LJ too....

on DW it's called a reading page instead of friend's page, but it's except for a few other things being named different it's really the same....you can use LJ codes in DW too....

I'm still studying the differences. I even learned how to post links to LJ profiles from here: http://www.dreamwidth.org/support/faqbrowse?faqid=87

It's like in this example: you type the LJ username instead of "news" in this example (without the extra interval I added after the "<"):
< user name=news site=livejournal.com>

From:

Yes, you have to do both: http://www.dreamwidth.org/support/faqbrowse?faqid=124

I understand the logic of it, but it's going to be a little difficult to remember which function does what.

Looks like a little green stinkbug. We get those guys here. So pretty, as long as you don't wind up getting sprayed by one.

And I hope you don't HAVE to move anything to DW that you don't want to... I'll keep crossposting to LJ, and I know Alex will, too. But it's a good idea to snag the username, just in case. <3

It does look like a stinkbug (we have them too).

We'll see how things go on LJ, but we'd better be connected here too, just in case. <3 I'll be reading you all on LJ for now and just studying how this place works.
