The picture never drops

So... I've been sitting on this for the whole month because of hiatuses/financial madness/laziness. BUT NOW THE MONTH IS ABOUT TO END AND WITH THAT THE FREE USERPICS PROMOTION, s-so it's time to make a serious decision.

...

Except I'm super indecisive and so I will let the internet decide for me.*

And now allow me to explain!! Finances are still kind of wacky for me, so logically I should go for the second option. Except... having things paid for for more than two months is relatively cheaper and that's two characters less I'd need to worry about. Not to mention lolol, who knows what's going to happen with the USD next year.

On the other hand, I'm still very 8( at LJ in general and giving them so much money makes me feel like I'm betraying my own principles. NOT TO MENTION... they might still do the a la carte userpics deal sometime before/around March and then all of my issues would be solved. Or... not, because this is LJ we're talking about, BUT I DIGRESS. Also, it'd be more charas for less money.

SO, THIS IS MY DILEMMA. Right now I'm leaning more towards the second option, but like I said, input is appreciated. Help me Obi-Wan CFUD, you are my only hope.
