stalking icons

[certainthings]

What exactly happens when one is "notified" when someone uploads a new icon? Just an email telling you 'so and so has uploaded an icon' or is it more 'here is a link to so and so's new uploaded icon.'?

I used to maybe sort of scoff at the idea of such a thing but since I stalk some of you and your userpics, it might be easier just to be notified. I don't know.

It's an email that says "[user] has uploaded a new icon!" and in the email is the actual icon.

Oh, thanks. I'm assuming you use this feature? Do you enjoy it?

[uglyduckling-me.livejournal.com]

I do use it, and yes I do enjoy it. It's handy for stealing awesome new icons from people :D

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

But what if they don't want people stealing it? Does it come with the keywords? Why am I asking ridiculous questions? I don't know.

[uglyduckling-me.livejournal.com]

The keywords show up for me for like...3 seconds before the pic loads but then I can't see them anymore. But...I don't think there's any way for someone to prevent others from being notified about new icons lol
I suppose if you don't want others to steal your icons, you have to put a note saying so on your userpics page (in the keywords area)

Personally, idc if someone says "don't steal this~!"

You're hardcore

I LOVE YOUR NEW ICON. I laughed so hard! I'm pretty sure you're a genius.

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

Thanks but it's the folks at Old Spice who are the geniuses. Though, I am 98 percent sure Jensen felt that way when he was being photographed that day.

Im always notified when you upload more, actually. haha

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

STALKER! :p

[goodnight.livejournal.com]

youuuu like it.

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

Secretly I do.

[laurondo.livejournal.com]

lmao your icon.

I'm curious! Do you stalk mine?

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

:)

Sometimes

I use the feature. I like it and enjoy it thoroughly.

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

Thanks for letting me know.

I love the icon notification. I don't get an e-mail. When I sign onto LJ I see "Messages" have many updates. When someone totally overhauls their icons it can get a little ridiculous. But I love to see what other people are up to.

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

I'm thinking I might sign up for it.

I always want to steal new icons you make from episodes, like your current default.

*nudges you* I think you should make an icon post. *is a very bad, annoying enabler* :p

<3

(Do you stalk mine?)

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

You can steal the new default.

I kind of want to make an icon post - I just have no icons to make an icon post with. :)

I sometimes do.

*steals*

Do you want me to ninjalike make some icons and then pretend they are yours? :p (p.s. yours would be much better :p)
