Icons...

[rian_aphasia]

So when I first created my Dreamwidth account, I uploaded 6 icons, which I was planning to use here. Then, when I imported my lj to my Dreamwidth account, it brought my other 9 icons over too. I knew that 9 of my icons were going to be put down as Inactive, but had no clue which ones; I assumed it would be the ones that were imported.

Turns out, only one of my icons, my default, is one I'd put up here to use on a regular basis; the other 5 are very old. Is there a way to change my Inactive ones? I know the ability to do it multiple times would just give us a regular way to cheat the 6 icon rule, I'm not saying I want that. What I mean is a one-time thing to "fix" which icons we now have access to without deleting them completely. Because I'd prefer my old icons to actually show up on my old (ancient) posts and not change over to my default.

Also not a volunteer or whiz-kid about stuff like this :( but another possible variable -- are the filesizes of your icons over 100KB?

When I first tried uploading an icon, I got an error message that it had to be under 100KB in size. I tweaked it so it was smaller and it was fine. When I tried to upload another icon that was slightly over 100KB (Finder had said it was 100KB), I didn't get that error message, but the Upload button never activated.
(edited to clarify: this was during closed beta)

Good luck! Hope you get an answer/solution soon!
