Just curious

You may or may not have noticed, but I let my paid account expire on LJ. I’ve been blogging on LJ for forever (2003!) and have had a paid account for the majority of that time. But I realized that I had been mostly using it for the userpics – and even then I wasn’t utilizing all of them. And I hadn’t been happy with some of the decisions that the business overlords had made recently, so I let it die. I’m missing it sometimes only a little, sometimes a lot – I get really bored with just 6 icons (and no, I’m not going sponsored) and I discovered that my header and friends-only banners are hosted on the LJ gallery which I can’t access as a freebie, so I have no pretty Anne banner anymore. And that makes me sad. While I may have difficulty keeping my house straightened, I really like having my blog space aesthetically pleasing.

Anyway, in my quest to decide whether or not I should go back, it would be helpful to understand how you all read and access my blog.

How do you follow and read my blog?

    Despite the tickyboxes, it said I could only pick one :(. (Okay, I just wanted to add “ticky!” to my response.) Had I not followed the link, I’d have missed your duck icon! Did you make it?

    The thing I like about reading on LJ is that I know I’ll be notified if you respond to my comment. Here, I think not, even though I provided my email address?

      Hmm. I doubled-checked the poll, it says you should be able to pick more than one. I have no idea how to fix it.

      I have no idea where I got that icon, but I love it. Having my own blog has meant that I have access to as many userpics as I want – I think I’m up to 300+, more than I’d ever be able to use in a year! I just can’t use them in comments.

      You should be able to get my response. I spent a long time working on getting threaded comments working!

    • 2025 – Quilts! 01/07/2026
      For Christmas, my sister and I made National Park quilts for my parents, sister and brother-in-law, and niblings. 6 of them were small lap quilts, with a simple print, batting, and a backing that we sewed. The last was a queen size quilt for my sister’s camping trailer – it was a challenge putting it […]
