sga_talk is a new(ish) community for critical discussion of SGA fanfics. I happen to
love that sort of thing, and
the first discussion seems to be off to a good start, and roaming into tangential discussions of Sheppard's personality and the role of Wraith in the series. Tangents are fun!
On a random side note, I've been messing with my icons lately -- my early icons are pretty blurry, and I've been trying to sharpen them up and make them look better. In the process, I've made some interesting discoveries about how LJ handles icons that might be of interest to those of you out there who haven't already discovered this (and for all I know, 99% of the LJ-going public got there before me *g*).
Most of us have probably noticed that when you delete an icon, it vanishes from all discussions where it was used, and is replaced with your default icon. But here's the interesting part. Based on my experimentation, what LJ apparently uses when it "finds" an icon is the Keyword(s) that you've given it. Therefore, if you delete an icon and re-upload it, all you have to do is give it the same keywords as the old one, and it'll replace the old one in all the places you've used it.
On the flip side (and I tried this, just to see), if you change the keywords, LJ will lose its "link" to that icon in previous discussions where it's been used. This is useful to know if you go changing your keywords around -- you'll end up with your default icon in a lot of old posts. (You can always change them back after-the-fact, though!)
This strikes me as being especially useful for those of us who try to keep our icons under the default limit. (I know at some point I'm going to have to buy more, but I haven't yet.) It means that, as long as your keywords are suitably vague, you can swap out icons at will without it screwing up any journal posts where you've used those icons. For example, you can have a "WTF?" icon and change it to a new fandom when you drop out of your old one. You can have a Christmas icon and keep it on all your Christmas posts while changing it as the mood strikes you.
Or, in my case, you can fix blurry, dull icons and have no one be the wiser ... unless you tell them, of course. *g*
