LiveJournal userheads

This is what the standard miniature “ userhead ” (userhead) looks like when using hyperlinks to LiveJournal bloggers:



This head can become non-standard. Many people know, I suppose, that a usogergolovu can be changed for a fee, since alternative heads are sold in the store , for a couple of bucks apiece:

However, apparently, this is not the only source of user recognition.

Over there we see a blogger who, with an insistent request, got himself a Cheburashka, who had not existed before (and even now she is not shown in the store to those logged in users who refused to use “Cyrillic services”).

Also in LiveJournal there is a political community of "blue buckets", opposing the privileges of officials. In the profile of this community , a button is visible, with which each member of the community can replace his user-head with a equipped blue mini bucket:



It is easy to see that this button exists with direct technical support from the LiveJournal administration, as it contains a special code that points to the address of a special script on the LiveJournal server:

<form action="http://www.livejournal.com/tools/endpoints/vederko.bml" method="GET"><button type="submit" class="details_ru_vederko_btn" disabled="disabled"><span>Switch userhead to<i class="details_ru_vederko_vederkouser"></i></span></button><input type="hidden" name="action" value="set" /></form> 

(The line breaks are arranged by me for readability.)

To a certain extent, this technical support is also financial, because non-standard user-language is distributed free of charge only in this case, while all other non-standard user-friendly users cost $ 2.

After that, it would be difficult to say that LiveJournal admins are not at all addicted to politics.

Perhaps taking into account this observation, some sense reappears asking yourself suddenly the question about whether there were any political reasons behind the disconnection of LiveJournal servers on November 4, 2006 on the day of the Russian March.
