You can enable or disable these preview images within your journal at the Viewing Options page. To stop seeing these preview images, click on "Options" in the upper-right corner of any preview. You can then choose to disable previews on "THIS Site" (throughout LiveJournal) or "All Sites" (all websites).
Funny, that setting seemed to affect everything on LJ before. Even if I have misunderstood something about its functioning then or now, IMO that is Right way. I shouldn't have to succumb to it in order to turn it off. Also, this sounds like it is accomplished by a cookie from Snap (how else can this affect "all websites"?) which would mean I have to do it on EVERY COMPUTER I USE which is Wrong. (Not that I won't have to do that anyway, but I mean, it should be an LJ-contained account setting, so I set it once and it holds no matter where I log in.) And you people who delete all your private info every session? Sorry, you'll have to turn it off every time. WTF?
