What I really hate is when that happens to me on my OWN profile page. I am a member of a lot of prolific communities. They're locked, and I want to see the content, so I can't leave them, but they're not on my default view, so I don't watch them. Mostly they are sales or big-fandom communities (whole-fandom, rather than just one character or pairing, or just fic, or just icons, or just meta). So I can't remember what the name of that comm was, and now, on my profile page, which is where I used to go when I had enough free time to browse these comms...I can't effing find it!!! Annoying! But LJ has always truncated profiles, just not so egregiously as post-new-profile page. It used to be that you couldn't see the creation date stuff for the journal unless you got it to full mode. Here's the fix for the problem. At the end of some list (watch, communities, whatever) you'll see an underlined ellipsis. Click on THAT. That ellipsis will take you from http://ataniell93.livejournal.com/profile to http://ataniell93.livejournal.com/profile?mode=full Like ?style=mine and ?format=light, ?mode=full is your friend. :) Kiri **************************************************************** Azalais Aranxta (~malfoy) ataniell93 on LiveJournal and Vox http://groups.yahoo.com/group/malfoymadness "I know the true world, and you know I do.
