You're absolutely right; LJ is animated-face friendly. I used to play over there, (Kingdom Hearts, too =D) but I still advertise on that server, since video games and the rest are- well, pretty much the norm. On IJ, god forbid if someone asks to use a rendered faceclaim.
I will make that a priority, and spread the word on LJ as soon as I finish the asylum, and I'll update my original entry as needed.
