I don't really have any advice on posting long fic to LJ beyond saving it as a text document and posting the clean text copy because word inserts so much junk coding into its documents. It really makes a difference in how much you can post.

*bounces* a long fic? Cool!!

As for the icon, I can take no credit for it. I've snurched it from somewhere. But yes, Daniel is so pretty ;-)

I do love yours. I've not seen a lot of icons with John Wincherster!
