It was time! I was suddenly gripped by this overwhelming urge to change my LJ/DW layout. I have had the same layouts for years now. And spring demanded out with the old, in with the new. Tadaaa! I hope the new design will make me want to post more. I'm also slowly overhauling my icons. Some of them I haven't used in ages. It's time to change that!
I noticed that when people cross post their DW entries, the user names in their text lead back to DW even if the person they mention does not have a DW account and they actually mean their LJ account. So, I found an interesting gimmick:
Basically: a)![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
katikat and b) ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
katikat.
Rather than < lj user="handle" > it is < user name="handle" >. If you want to mention someone from a different service you can do < user name="handle" site="livejournal.com" > or insanejournal.com or archiveofourown.org. If you're crossposting, the crossposter will render all those options as appropriate html. Link.
Basically: a)
katikat and b) katikat.

Sep. 6th, 2010 10:00 amHey, peeps! I'm trying out DW. I'll keep a paid LJ account and a free one over on DW - I see many of my friends/favorite authors/podficcers moving over to DW and I want to stay in touch with them - so, if you have a DW account and would like me to subscribe or whatever to it, drop me a note?
Of accounts
Aug. 19th, 2010 03:28 pmI received 7 DreamWidth invite codes if someone's interested. I do have a DW account but all I use it for is storage for my old fics. I prefer LJ, it's much simpler to use and I have had it for... *checks* 7 years now - Monday is my 7 year anniversary *throws confetti*
Also, I started using Vox again, if anyone wants to friend me over there. I use it for personal stuff only: what I'm doing, how the weather is, family stuff etc. Personal things that I don't post here or on Twitter anymore.
*off to clean*
