lovely icons and wallpapers!!

Thanks!

Dear moulin01,

(I am having to post this msg as a reply. For some reason I cannot send this to your LJ inbox, nor do you have an email address on your profile page. I would have rather sent this msg in one of those fashions, but LJ would not let me do so.)

At any rate, I wanted to let you know that you have some very lovely icons, but it is becoming more and more difficult to view the new ones! :( It would be very helpful for those of us who would like to view, save, and use your icons (with credit of course) if you would think about doing two things to help your users out:

1) When you link to your LJ for a new icon post, just link to the new post, please. Instead, you are just linking to your icon LJ as a whole, and us dial-up users (about half the people in the USA are still on dial-up, as example) have to sit and wait and wait while over 200 icons load. :( That includes all your icons on that first page. It's really not necessary. :) The many other icon makers that I get icons from don't do that; they just link to the new icon post, which makes sense. :) I know that you probably want to have everyone see your icons, but I find that most people, if they like an icon maker's work, they just look through all the other posts and also join the icon maker's LJ for icons. :) No need to worry that LJ users won't see your wonderful work! :)

2) Or if you don't want to link to individual posts one at a time when you make a new icon post (and I'm not sure that I would understand it if you did not, since that's what all other icon makers that I patronize do), please at the very least consider putting each set of icons under an LJ cut. Since you post in various communities, like most icon makers, I am sure that you know that most communities only want a few preview icons to show with each post. Doing this in your icon LJ would also be helpful, as that way, when us LJ users loaded the page, we would only see a handful of icons for each post, and then we could go and click on the (Read more) link and see all the icons in that post. :)

I hope that these suggestions will be of help to you, and to all LJ users who view your icon LJ.

If you are not sure about how to link to a post or how to make an LJ-cut, the LJ FAQ has lots of information on how to do all these things, and more. I've been on LJ for years, and I still look at the FAQ on a regular basis. :)

I look forward to seeing more of your lovely work. :)

thanks in advance,

That really wasn't my intention, I'm sorry!
But I tought that my latest posts were linked to the new icons only...
I'll try to do right next time!
Thanks for telling :)
