# Using your own images and icons

## Using `imageconf.pl`

LiveJournal uses a standard set of icons for specific pages that are distributed through the `/img` directory, and handles the configuration for these images in the file: `cgi-bin/imageconf.pl`. Each image is configured as an associative array in perl, setup with attributes for each file. (FIXME - this needs a lot of work.)

`cgi-bin/imageconf.pl` is provided. Don't change that. But go ahead and add a new file, `imageconf-local.txt` beside it in the same format, which `imageconf.pl` will find and use.
