Community Rules

This comm is open to anyone to post codes, layouts, resources, tutorials, and requests for help and content. Of course, we do have some rules, so please read through them before jumping in; thank you!

Treat others the way you'd like to be treated. This is not a drama comm, and we expect you guys to be awesome and stay civil. If a situation gets out of hand, please contact a mod, and leave comments intact so we can accurately handle the situation.

Please tag your posts and check out the tagging guide if you have any questions!

■ Very long posts or posts formatted with your own div styling for organization should be behind a cut to save people's f-lists.

Work safe above the cut, please!

■ If posting codes, guides, etc. absolutely do not post content that you did not make. That's stealing, and it's super uncool, bro! If you are posting expanded/edited codes made by yourself using another user's coding as well, please be sure you have their permission (You do not need direct permission if they allow edits to be re-posted in their blanket rules.)
■ Do not post tutorials/links to tutorials that show people how to steal codes from other users. Again: Stealing. Not cool.
When asking for help with something, please check the help tags (help: coding, help: graphics, help: icons, help: layouts, help: other) first to see if your question has already been posted and answered to avoid duplicates.

We do not allow game ads to be posted on this comm since there are so many communities specifically for that already; if you're pimping a game as an addition to a regular post, that's fine. (OK: You post an RP code and mention in the post, oh hey, also I'm running this game! NOT OK: Posts dedicated to game promo.)

We do allow other types of community promos if they are related to RP (icon comms, other types of resource comms, etc.) Just shoot us a comment in our dropbox beforehand and we'll let you know if it's cool to post!

I have a renaming question.

I have a journal that is a permanent account that I don't use anymore. I would like to use it for a different journal on which I am very active. Is there anyway to do this without losing everything in the journal I want to give the perm status to?

my idea is, say your perm journal is ~permjournal and your active journal is ~activejournal. what you do is you delete ~permjournal and maybe wait for it to be purged. once that happens, you used a rename ticket on ~activejournal, using the name ~permjournal. then there's an option there to redirect all links of ~activejournal to ~permjournal.

and deleting it won't make it lose it's perm status?

you could buy a perm status for your active journal but it's not on sale all year

right. that's why i was hoping to transfer it to a journal in use. i'll just wait and rename it to something else when i need a new journal!

So I headed over to [info]tradingspaces because that's where I go for renames. They had this to say in one of their guides.

7) Let's say you have a perm account or an early inmate account and you want to transfer the benefits/star status to another account while still holding onto you entries and everything else. This can't be done. There is no way to just transfer your perm account to another journal unless you rename it. To be a little clearer, pretend that ~perm is a perm account and ~cat is your journal with all your entries and everything inside it. Now you want ~cat to be the perm account. This can only happen if you rename ~perm to ~cat. During this process, all your old entries will be left in the ex_account. There is no way around that unless you just decide to go to "upgrade account" and pay to have ~cat turned into a perm account.

Crap! that's what I thought. I'll just rename the perm into a new journal.
