I guess at lot of people have heard about this already, but journal of fanartist has been suspended because of an entry made to a community. Take necessary precautions, people. Be careful of what you post and where you post it, who can view it. You can get done for even if it's on a community, not on your own LJ.

(I thought they said they'll ask people to delete offending entries, before suspending or deleting journals. Maybe my memory is wrong. Or LJ team is not doing what they said they would.)

I wonder if LJArchive can be used on communities. word_games was made back in the days when comm journals still had passwords. I want to back it up just in case.

Speaking of LJ policies, I seem to remember LJ staff (could have been Brad) saying we have JOURNALS here, not BLOGS, mwa-ha na-ha. Not that I know what the difference is. But recently I've noticed that on the LJ front page, if you're not logged in, it says LiveJournal.com - Start a Free Blog / Journal Today in the title bar of the browser. Because, I suppose, everyone knows the word BLOG these days. Oh, commercialisation. orz There should be a "LiveJournal for Dummies" page soon, considering how much they've tarded LJ-up to suit the tards.

Can a kind soul please send me some Tenimyu songs, such as the Petenshi song, Mou Mayoi wa Nai, Dream Maker (Minami & Aiba version), Finalist, Climax, Shaba Daba Dabide, Yuudan Sezu ni Ikou and some random others? I'm sad without myu music here. D:

I FORGOT TO UPLOAD SANADA ICON AGAIN.

The one thing I'm really curious about is that it seems like creative fiction has a lot more room for "forgiveness" than art

That's not an LJ thing but a general attitude I think, since movies do have age restrictions, but books general don't. And it's a lot "easier" to see if a drawn character is underage, as opposed to something written about, because most fan fiction doesn't even state the age of the characters. (Since everyone reading already knows anyway.) Would be a little too time-consuming to check canon for that.

Except when you have characters like Tezuka and Sanada who do not look like 15 year olds >>; (But yes, excellent point. Things like Harry Potter... everyone knows they're kids, even if they haven't read the books or seen the movies. But once you get into anime fandom and such, most people can't be arsed to give a damn, really >_>)

Could it be argued that "I draw this as Harry in Year 13 of school, so he's supposed to be 18"?

Even if Snape's supposed to be dead at that point (maybe, I know nothing about HP, I'm guessing), can it be argued that "I'm not following canon"?

.........but I suppose everything's argueable.

It could be argued as AU, I guess (as Harry is 17 in the last book, and yes, you are correct). But I don't think LJ (or WB) cares if it's AU or not >_>;
