After wading through all the comments on the latest latest on lj_releases, I'm pretty sure that while they do not plan to get rid of icons quite yet, that is what we're headed for. :(
I'm also quite certain they are planning to expand their new design for the friends list to the whole journal eventually. *headdesk*
[Disclaimer]: Of course this is all just if you're interested in buying dreamwidth points in the first place, but here you go:
I've been lucky enough to have a trusted friend who I send the money to (through paypal *lol*), and she then pays for my paid journal via credit card. That worked like a charm for the last four years! ;)
I' m sure she wouldn't mind helping you out as well! Or you could PayPal the money to me, and I'll send it to her.
I don't know if you have a PayPal account yet, but it's easy (and free!) to sign up. They'll ask you for your bank account details, but you'll have the option to deny them access ( aka, PayPal can NOT draw upon your bank account - I use that!), and all you have to do to verify your account is transfer the equivalent amount of ~0,11 cents € to your PayPal account. After that you can transfer any amount for free *and* transfer it for free to other PayPal users!
...or if you don't trust online payment, mail it to me and I'll paypal it to her. Provided you trust your postal service, and me, that is! *g*
(Here's how much a paid dw account costs: 12 months for 350 points ($35.00 USD~ 7,622.19 HUF or 27,06 € ) = 100 icons 6 months for 175 points ($17.50 USD ~ 3,919.89 HUF or 14 € )) = 100 icons There's also Premium accounts: 12 months : $ 50 USD ~ 10,887.94 HUF or 38.6501 € = 250 icons and 6 months: $25 USD ~ 5,444.62 HUF or 19.3296 €= 250 icons )
