I think I've finally figured out one of the questions I need to ask in order to work through the next project bit I need to do:
So, you've loaded the update page and you are about to write an entry. What steps, and in what order, do you do it in?
For instance, for me it's:
1. Pick journal to post to.
2. Write entry.
3. Pick subject.
4. Add tags.
5. Change comment settings if necessary.
6. Pick security level if other than default.
7. Preview, if there's anything more complicated than a few links.
8. Hit post.
9. Immediately view entry to make sure it isn't fucked.
(You'll notice the lack of 'pick icon' or 'add mood/music' -- I never do.)
What's yours?

2. Write entry.
3. Tick crossposting tickyboxes.
4. Change security level if other than wide-open.
5. Add mood.
6. Remember that the icons are all the way at the top, scroll back up, pick icon.
7. Hit post.
8. Immediately view to make sure it isn't fucked, as you say.
8b. Look at LJ to make sure something didn't go awry in crosspost.
9. Remember that I didn't add tags; edit entry to do this, fix typos, etc.
