choosing icons?

[wembley]

Not sure if this is the place for this, but:

When I got an invite code, I played around with the paid features but then let it lapse once Open Beta started. (I would like to buy a paid account at some point in the future, though!)

When my account lapsed into a Basic Account, my five recently uploaded icons + my default became my six active icons, and the rest became inactive. Is there a way to... pick different icons to get locked into, or do I just have to keep deleting until the icons I'm into hit the bottom rung? (Icons are great for expressing how you feel when you're commenting, and right now all I can express are anger, anger, WTF, and sorrow. *g* At least, visually. :))

Crossposter: editing external accounts

[flick]

I was going to post to ask if there was a way to insert some text at the start (ie, a cut tag) and / or end (ie, a "crossposted from DW" line, which I think must be possible as I've seen people adding things like that, although it may be manually) of a crossposted entry, but then I thought I should probably just check for myself!

However, when I went to the settings page and clicked on "change", it sent me to the page for adding a new external account, not the one for editing an existing one.

So, a question and (I guess) a possible bug: is anyone else seeing the same behaviour? Is it intended?

But I like the "light style"

[treewishes]

Is there any way to default to "light style" all the time?  It's by far the easiest to read, and I find I'm always clicking to it when I get to a pale blue site with slightly less pale blue lettering...

Thanks for any help on this!

Poll markup?

[ct]

I could have sworn that at some point during the closed beta I saw someone mention that one of the bits of LJ-specific markup that was changing was the markup for hand-coding polls - the lj-poll, lj-pi, and lj-pq tags. Now, of course, I can't find that post in my bookmarks, and I'm beginning to wonder if I imagined it. Anyone know if this is true?

I did check the FAQs, but I wasn't able to find any mention of handcoding polls at all, markup changes or no markup changes.
