My sister-in-law is now *out* of her FEMA trailer, and into a nice shiny new apartment!

Oh, good! I worked for a nonprofit working in the Katrina aftermath, and I heard my share of stories. So glad for her.

I LOVE your icon!

I'm new here to livejournal... so I don't know the courtesy rules. Would it be ok if I stole/borrowed/copied (yeah, that's the best word!) it? I can copy your name to give you credit if it's yours.

Well, none of my icons are *made* by me - just found by me. This particular one was made by [livejournal.com profile] juno_magic; her icon journal is juno_icons. You can find this particular icon here. And her "rules" are pretty standard:

1. No hotlinking. That means don't just point to the URL where she has it hosted. Actually save it to your computer and upload it to LJ.

2. Comment to tell her which one you're taking. Just like writers, artists love feedback.

3. Credit her.

And of course: 4. Enjoy!

Thanks! I found a lot of other cool/cute icons there as well.

Just one more question - how do I go about crediting her when I take one?

Sorry for being so full of questions... just don't want to offend anyone!

Not a problem. I usually comment on the entry where I took the icon from, and put her name in the "comments" space when I upload the userpic at http://www.livejournal.com/editpics.bml. Specifically I say something like: "By [lj user=juno_icons]" (replacing [ with < and ] with >). That's how you credit someone.

I know you said you're new to LJ, but I am assuming you know how to add a picture. The "comments" thing is one of the spaces you can fill in when you upload a userpic, right below keywords. If you're lost let me know and I'll go more slowly. ;-)

Thanks for all your help, Marta!

It took a few tries, but I'm able to do it now.

Go you! I'm proud you did it, too - new computer skills are not always easy to learn. ;-)

That's great to hear. How are things with you? Did you get things straightened out about your hubby's check?

What great news!!! What a long time to be in a trailer like that!

Congrats to her! I can't imagine living unsettled for so long!

By the way - what is GMA? I see you often have that as your music and try as I might, I can't think of what it might be.
