This is just a test post for now. Have fun with it!

Will be re-importing everything on Jun 2nd.

Youknow what else is really neat about DW? They have little arrows that *expand and contract* entries! :D I absolutely love that feature.

(I jumped ship to DW a while back and while it's quieter MAN do I prefer it to LJ.)

On LJ cuts? I hadn't noticed that before!

Man the more I look around the more stuff I wish LJ had.

[daphnie_1]

Yup! :D One of my favorite things. It's auto set as collapsed but if you want you can set your flist to have them expanded automatically!

Some useful links

Hi, guys! Here are some handy links for making your stay at DW an awesome one :)

Guide to DW

Another nice big guide

And more in an FAQ style

Guide to crossposting (for personal experience - I've been posting on Dreamwidth since December and crossposting to Livejournal all that time without problems - the only hiccup I have is if I have links to specific posts on either LJ or DW, meaning my friends on LJ will get directed to DW, or I'll be directed to LJ for older posts)

Getting an LJ-esque site skin on DW (works almost perfectly, although LJLogin MAY redirect you to Tropospherical Red instead of Purple, meaning you'd get a moment of seeing things in red and the header is still in red)

And some comms -

dreamwidthlayouts (self-explanatory!)
dreamcodes (also aimed at RPers, so there's mysterious things like muselists and CR charts, but there's also a collection of profile codes)

All the guides posted above have links to read further, too. Fandom on DW is pretty small, I'll freely admit that - but that doesn't mean we can't make it bigger!

pretty good. Now I'm trying to work out if it does the new comment thing like LJ (one of my fave thread features)

It does not appear to do it. Nrgn.

DW 2 points, LJ 2 points.

Now to go to work and see how it works on a crappy slow internet (because fuck my work place).

*Checks email now* Thanks for the notic, Techno!

Re: Hello! OpenID testing.

Just making sure the OpenID thing works as it should. Let me know if it does!

Re: Hello! OpenID testing.

Hey Techno, I noticed that I can expand comment long comment threads but I can't collapse them. Any clues on how to?

Checked these, there doesn't seem to be a way. Is it a major issue? (Asking seriously, I honestly never used the collapse function on LJ myself)

[got_swagger]

SO excited for this!

[got_swagger]

Expand/Contract Cut Tags is basically the best! Once I discovered it, I was in love!

Re: Hello! OpenID testing.

[al28894.livejournal.com]

Nah. Not so much, but it does strike me as odd, though. :)

[greenvelvetcake]

Cautious but tentatively hopeful. I like the layout here - it wasn't as jarring a change from LJ as I thought it would be. In fact, all the changes I can spot seem to be for the better. Cheers!

Only thing I miss is the little yellow "new comment" flag. Those were actually really handy. :(

But other than that it's all good.

[jchrys]

Ohhh, I like the colors/comments better already.

*off to try to import some icons*

Thanks :)

Cool, glad they came in handy!

[renegadeinterrupt]

Hoping that F!S moving here reminds me to actually use my own DW account...

I figured you might find this entertaining:

The userinfo has looked like this all day. I have quality friends

[case]

And I just realized "buttmaster" is right above "captainkirksnipples." I love fandom.
