Eeeeeeeh! I will come back later and suck your brains out ask you how did it go and such :D
One thing I'd like is the name of the user under the userpic (metadata, is that it)? My memory is mostly visual, so I remember the icons/name, as it is, separated, makes my head spin, lol
I imported my IJ and my LJ. I did them one at a time and it worked out okay. The most recent import will overwrite your default icon, though. You can set it back pretty easily and, I think this is so, I haven't checked, because dw identifies icons by their name not by status as default, it won't overwrite your icon choices for the different journals.
I haven't checked what's happened where I had the same name for different icons on different journals. The second named icon has been re-named by DW. I'd advise checking you don't have duplicate icon names, first.
TY for the info!! I am pondering hanging out until the import stuff is more stable... I have such a huge volume of stuff, it'd be impossible to find any glitches!
OHAI! I was sorry not to have a code to send you a few days back! I'm happy to see you here. *clings*
also, I want to import multiple LJs and clone-journals into one, but I haven't done it yet; 'm waiting on progress done on the importer front, personally.
Right now if you try to import multiple $othersite journals into a single DW journal, it will pick up all entries from one account and some-or-none of the entries from the other account. (This is a bug, and we're working on fixing it!)
You can import your journal multiple times, though -- I re-import my personal journal once a week or so. So if you import, then make another post to your $othersite journal or get more comments to your $othersite journal, you can re-import it and just the new stuff will come over.

Ooooh. Now THAT is good to know!
So I can import one LJ now (and in future as many more times as I want), and just hold off on the second one until it's more stable later.
