...Is there an official spelling of that?

Um, hi. (Sounds so much more boring in English). I found this place by accident and was greatly entertained by the baby ficlets and artlets waiting to happen. I replied to a comment where I couldn't resist throwing my own two cents in and... yeah, I eventually gave in to peer pressure, got an LJ, and joined. I am the artist formerly known as the Anonymous who was having a conversation about Pernese Deceptidragons.

I have a few bunnies but I think I'm gonna wait to post them until I have a nice list.

Any useful tips for someone who's never had an LJ before would be very very very welcome. *puppy optics*

Hiya! ^_^ *waves!*

Hmm...lj. Icons, a theme for your journel, cuts...

Blah I'm horrible at explaining things ^^;

Here are a few icon communities for transformers...

[livejournal.com profile] ninja_fuzzy

[livejournal.com profile] tf_icons

and then here's one I just found [livejournal.com profile] icons_delight for random icons. Though if you want to find more you can type in 'icons' in the search for 'interests' and there're a ton of communities for 'em. And in some posts there are things that show you how to credit the icon makers...*shrugs*

I'll stop rambling now, if that was even useful. But if you have any questions or anything I'll be happy to answer them as best I can! ^_^

*goes to bury head in hole* sorry for the long comment...

Success!

Yes, you joined! *cackles evilly* Nah, seriously, I'm glad you joined.

Advice? Hmm... LJ cuts. You'll wanna know how to make one of those - the lj cut is when part of a post is hidden behind a link (sorta thing) within paranthesis (and I could look up the correct spelling for that, but I'm lazy, so...) When you're posting, highlight the part you want behind the cut, then click the button on the bar that has lines to repesent writing with a squiggly type thing at the bottom. (I'm so good at explaining things, aren't I?) When the box comes up, type whatever you wanna say in it, and that'll be what the cut says.

Now for the fake cut - there's a few different ways that I know of to do this, but I've personally always found the rich text version the easiest, so that's the only one I can actually do, and hence the only one I can explain. A fake cut will lead you to an entirely new page.

Example: I want to create a link to, say, youtube, but I don't want to put the dotcom and all that. Instead, I want to say: Link to my video. So, I write 'link to my video', then highlight it. Then I press the button on the bar with the picture of a globe with two connected links (it'll say 'insert/edit link' when you're mouse is over it.) Then put the youtube link in the space provided, click okay or whatever it says, and bah-boom, you have a fake cut.

Sorry if you already knew all that, but it nearly drove me crazy tring to figure out how to do those when I first joined, so I figure other newbies might not wanna go looking all over the place to figure it out.
