Posts on valo_daily that include multiple images, heavy wording, reviews, and things of those sort should to be put behind a lj-cut with the exception of one single image of Ville Valo for the front page.

From the LiveJournal FAQ #75: How do I hide part of my entry behind a link? What is an lj-cut or lj-spoiler tag?


Detailed tutorial on how to create an LJ-Cut while in Visual Editor Mode

Step One: Make sure you are in visual editor mode.

Step Two: Highlight/select the images/text you want behind your Cut.


Step Three: Click on the LJ-Cut icon, if you hover over it, a little box will pop up and say "Insert Cut"


Step Four: Customize the text for your cut, or leave as is. Click Insert when done. Highlighted area will turn grey.


And you're done! Your post should end up looking a bit like the image below prior to posting.



Double check to make sure everything's alright by previewing your post entry first.

Please note that images on the front page should not exceed more than 600px in width.
