Are you looking for something like a checklist of all accounts where you check off the ones you want and then can post to all of them with one button-push? I think I could probably implement that sometime soon.

Right now, the way I use asLJ, I have the "After Posting" checkbox in the "Clear Post" area unchecked so that I can write an entry, post it to one account, select another account, pick the userpics, post it there, etc.

[aslj_client]

Entry preview is on my to-do list for the 0.5a major version.

I'll add one-click crossposting to the 0.5a list, though it may end up in a 0.4a.x release or it may have to wait until 0.6b. How do userpics and moods behave in Semagic when using the one-click crossposting? That is, does it just use the default userpic on each account or does it try to match up the same userpic across accounts (and similarly for mood/moodid)?

[aslj_client]

Moods aren't guaranteed to match across servers (though as far as I know, there are few if any differences in moods between servers), but if they mostly match, it should be doable [actually, the text can be anything, it's matching up the mood id numbers that may or may not be possible]. Implementing the userpics as you described shouldn't be a problem.
