Hi

I make here public posts but I'd like them to becrossposted to LJ with friends-only access. Is it possible or have I fix it manually every time?

There's actually a setting now that lets you control the minimum security level on crossposts. Go to Manage Accounts -> Other Sites, then click on the Details link for your crosspost account. There should be an option there for 'Minimum Security', which you can set to Public, Friends, or Private. If you choose Friends or Private, then that security level will be maintained through edits.

It's kind of hard to find, but it's there. :)

It only showed up in October of last year, so it's not like it's been around forever.
