Wait, wait, screw it, I *just* walked Zarah through this very process...I know I saved those emails...here we go!
I assume you've set up your LJ through Semagic, and that you've probably set it up to be Auto-Login and Remember Password, so that you breeze past the Login screen when you open Semagic. So you just need to repeat the process with your Insane Journal account. So, open Semagic. It'll probably automatically log you in using your LJ username. Go to Journal --> Logout. That should take you back to the login screen. Erase the listed username, type in something like skoosiepants_ij (or your IJ name if it's not skoosiepants), to differentiate the username from your LJ login. For the password, type in your IJ password. Make sure that Auto-Login and Remember Password boxes are both checked. Go to File -->Server Settings. Type www.insanejournal.com in the server box. In the places where it says Username and Password, put in the username and password that you use to login to IJ. So whoever you are on IJ and then whatever your password is.
That means that while your SEMAGIC username for IJ will be skoosiepants_ij, the actual username you use to login will be skoosiepants just like on IJ, and both that username and your IJ password will be saved under the Semagic username that you assign to it. God, I hope that makes sense. Click OK. Click login.
That's it. That should set up the ability to post to Insanejournal on your Semagic account. So if you log out again and go back to the login screen, there should be two usernames in the dropdown menu. Select the one that you want to be your default (probably LJ?) and click Login. It should have your password already saved and stuff. Then, when you want to make a post to both LJ and IJ, do the Journal ---> Post To Multiple Journals option.
