Betty bet a bit of better beta
Apr. 22nd, 2009 01:33 amOkay, so I imported my LJ to DW. This has created a duplicate of my last post, which was cross-posted pre-import - logical! - but also has inexplicably swapped around my embedded videos. Viz this entry which on livejournal had a video right at the end with dancing zombie and plant cartoons. As you can see, Dreamwidth has randomly replaced it with a cool guitar video I posted some time last year. Also this layout I'm trying out, which is much more legible than the default black one, sticks the page title up next to the journal subheading which seems confusing/redundant.
I am however impressed that all the code has been fiddled with so that lj-usernames still link to lj! Also, I seem to have missed out on the reported bug which shows up when you import your userpics later than your entries. The reason for my tardiness was that I had already uploaded six userpics before I found the import feature. Oh hey, it hasn't even duplicated the ones I had uploaded on both sites! It just merged the tags. Awesome! Ohh it's going to be such a pain working out which ones to delete once open beta starts and my account goes back down to the regular free-account icon-load. I had reached an equilibrium on LJ! I had fifteen icons that covered pretty much anything I had cause to post about! And then I went to upload icons to DW, and I didn't have all my LJ icons on this hard drive, so I just picked some from the folders I do have, and those are all good ones too! Argh. Okay, what do I use more often... I can merge some snark icons... *sweats*
