revdorothyl: What Else Are We Gonna Do? (Hellbound)

The case of the lost icon

The Angel-and-Spike "What else are we gonna do?" AtS "Hellbound" icon that [livejournal.com profile] keswindhover made for my birthday in 2005 (commemorating the title of my "Slayage" conference paper presentation in 2004) is missing.

It's still listed among my choices on LJ, but the picture is missing.

Has anyone else experienced a disappearing icon picture? Or does anyone have an idea of why only this one userpic might've been altered against my wishes?

Failing that, I'll have to beg [livejournal.com profile] keswindhover and [livejournal.com profile] missmurchison to search their old computer files and see if either of them has a copy that I could re-upload (Kes made the icon, but my 'thank you' entry from January of '05 noted that Miss M had helped to downsize it a bit to fit LJ's limits).

Darn! I really liked that icon, and it's not as if I'm anywhere close to exceeding the number of userpics I'm allowed here on LJ.

I've had that happen a few times. I just changed my default to one that worked, and a couple days later my pic was back, and I re-defaulted. Sorry I can't be of more help.

I guess I'll just have to wait and hope for the 'Second Coming of the Lost Icon' (which really sounds like something Dan Brown would try to turn into a badly written novel or an interminable movie, but never mind!).

Thanks for the reassurance. :)
