I was going to order a paid account here, and then I thought "why"? To get more user pics? GJ offers 1,000 user pics for no extra cost... well, did I want to be able to design my own journal? GJ offers that for free too - so what else is left? Pretty much nothing. I could spend that 25 dollars elsewhere, lol.
Granted, there are more people here at LJ - so the networking is a bit better, but I don't need more user pics or a special journal style to meet people. All I need for that is a sharp wit, and a sense of humor, lol... and those things I already have. :)
GJ is great too, offering their services for absolutely nothing - free accounts are the same as paid accounts. 1,000 users pics, ability to redesign your layouts, mood theme uploads, and image hosting all for free. Sometimes you see some advertising on the profiles - but you can choose to turn those ads off, and even if you couldn't - it would be a small price to pay.
I guess what I'm saying is that both LJ and GJ have their perks. Probably why I use both. :)
