Do you think if I renewed my Paid Account, the extra icons would show up again? I'm considering just renewing it for a bit...but if they "expired" when my paid account did (even though they were separate payments), I would be PISSED.
That's what I figured! But then, knowing LJ...I feel like they'd be like, oh wait, those ALREADY EXPIRED because it's been longer than that* since you let your Paid Account expire! If you know what I mean.
...Seriously this is ridiculous, I'm sitting here trying to find an appropriate icon to reply to you with and I'm like...Scary Little Gas Mask Boy? The Boosh Look? Collaged Bryan Ferry and Baby Vince? Vince's Fist Pump? Howard Jumping For Joy? Thom Yorke Riding A Bicycle?
I HAVE TO EXPRESS MY OPINIONS AND EMOTIONS THROUGH ICONS AND I CAN'T.
According to the FAQ, your extra userpics come back if you pay for the account [if you had time left on them], but if that expires, the extra icons go inactive once more.
But see, that seems to imply that my Extra Icons technically expired, even though I wasn't able to use them for the remainder of their allotted time (because my Paid Account expired). And I paid for that allotted time I didn't get to use.
No, it says it *saves* your extra userpic time for when you pay for your account again:
If you have remaining add-on userpic time after your Paid Account expires, LiveJournal saves the number of days remaining before your add-on expires so it will be available with more Paid time.
In any case, you should ask LJ how many days of extra icons you have remaining, and if you'll get them back for sure before you pay anything.
Hmm. Okay. You're totally right. I was reading this:
If you have remaining add-on userpic time after your Paid Account expires, LiveJournal saves the number of days remaining before your add-on expires so it will be available with more Paid time. If your add-on userpic space itself expires, you will need to buy more.
as if the last sentence was continuing with the thought. But yeah, I agree that I should just ask LJ.
