1. You bought a premium account just so you could have more icons.
No, but it was an appreciated bonus.
2. You spent a long time picking the design for your “Friends Only” banner.
Never was friends only.
3. You either adored or loathed rating communities – there was no middle ground
Yes. Guess which...
4. Before you committed to Livejournal, you flirted with Deadjournal and Xanga
Uh... those came later.
5. You remember the glory days of “Hot Fashion” and “Off Hot Fashion”
Don't recall that name.
6. Surveys were your game
No, but my friends did. I'm sure I did a few.
7. How are you feeling? What are you listening to?
At first I thought the current music field was pretty cool but I soon stopped using it. I think because I felt it might detract my what I wanted to say. I used current mood occasionally for a long time.
8. You had a love/hate relationship with image hosting sites
Not really. Before there were image hosting sites, I used my own site to host. Then LJ started its own image hosting.
9. You were forced to learn some coding
The plus side is that now I can list “basic html skills” on your resume. ;-)
10. Your LJ friends became real friends
Yes!
