Over the years I archived over 12000 (TWELVE THOUSAND!!!) images on LiveJournal. Whenever there was a new platform I tried it (I'm BeeLikeJ all over the internet) yet I've never found such a great combination of journaling, community and image archiving as on LJ.
I have a permanent account on LJ (these were only occasionally available; it means I don't have to pay anymore charges and Livejournal shows me no ads). I have a Blogspot, a Twitter, an InsaneJournal (!), a Tumblr, an Instagram, a Pillowfort and a (paid) Dreamwidth account, pretty much from the start. I also moderate a lot of communities on most of these platforms.
I had a Photobucket from before LJ's scrapbook, which I managed to back-up when that site went kablooy.
I've been crossposting from Dreamwidth for years, automatically when available and by hand now that LJ has shut down that option. So I have a back-up of all my posts online, but my images remain linked from LJ only.
When word went around that LJ might be cut off, I tried to find a way to safeguard my images as well. I found two easy methods!
( Turn your journal or blog into a pdf bookCollapse )
( Download your LJ-scrapbook (photo-albums)Collapse )
I feel so relieved to have my own back-up now, hope this helps anyone who was looking for ways to save their journal stuff:)

The most recent changes at LiveJournal made me decide to finally clone my older posts and to be prepared for moving to Dreamwidth should the new lay-out (of the posting page and the friendspage) get on my nerves. So far it's still possible to switch back to the 'old' system, but TPTB have already announced that this won't last forever. I'm still quite loyal to LJ; I did get that permanent account for a reason, but if it starts to make me feel uncomfortable at least I will have a place to post from;)
