Hi. Wanted to let you know that your links to other people's journals are all going to Dreamwidth accounts (though I don't know if they all have accounts at DW). If you are crossposting from DW to LJ using the rich text editor to write the post, there is a pull down menu under the little "head" icon that let's you chose what site the journal is on --- DW, LJ, InsaneJournal, etc.) If your crossposting from DW to LJ using html code, you'll have to get the special html code off of DW support. The LJ crosspost defaults to the DW account if you type "user name=..." in arrow and, last time I checked, "lj user=..."> in arrow wasn't recognized by DW. There is a way to do it. I know it's in DW's FAQs, but I don't know it off the top of my head.

Unless you were trying to give links to DW accounts on purpose instead of LJ journals, in which case, never mind.

Thank you. Only two are meant to go to DW, the rest aren't. I'll dig through the DW FAQ and fix it.

Oh, and it's not Rich Text Editor that I use when I cross-post. Only HTML.

And there we go. Should be all fixed now.
