Hmm ... wonder what the policy violation was. I hope bringing attention to it didn't lead to it's downfall...

oh, believe me, it was probably all about the negative attention.

Actually, one of the users found her icon made from pictures of her son there, with some negative comments. She asked them to remove it, and then reported the community to LJ Abuse. I feel bad, as after I saw the metafilter post I linked to worsticons in another icon making community, where the offended party happened to be a member. Oops.
