The day I found out how to adblock icons on LJ definitely made my LJ experience better. So I hear you on the whole 'LJ experience greatly improved' OP.

For those who are claiming the OP is being snobbish, elitist, overreacting, shouldn't be bothered by a little 100 x 100 icon, surely they're not *that* annoying, etc etc. None of you know why the OP finds blocking certain icons an improvement of their LJ experience. Maybe there are icons that are triggers for them, maybe they have a phobia. The phobia thing was certainly the case for me, I had to block someone's icon, because it featured an image of something I am severely phobic about - to the point that even seeing a picture will send me into a state of terror filled panic. So yeah, not all of us who appreciate being able to block icons on LJ are doing it to be special little elitist snowflakes.

Yeah, not sure why everyone is jumping on OP for being snobby or picky or elitist. Some people find animated icons extremely distracting, some people find certain images triggering or have a phobia. It's not a big deal. Why is it considered snobby or picky just to block an image that's bothering you?

I'd say it's more elitist or whatevs to ask the person to remove the image. Instead, OP is taking it upon themselves to take care of the problem without bothering anyone else. Pretty cool, if you ask me.

I agree; I think it's pretty empowering to use the tech available to you to make things work better for you! I'm actually considering seeing if the Adblock trick works on DA as well; on LJ, the animations don't distract me too much, but on DA, you get solid BLOCKS of them, and you can't just collapse threads! AUGH.
