Some people want to post everything to their Journal, other people don’t. For example, I only keep my pics in my Journal, I don’t record any other posts there.

If you uncheck the checkbox it will stay unchecked just for that post. If you click “always uncheck” it will remember your setting, and the box will always be unchecked every time you post.

So I have mine set to “always uncheck,” and whenever I post a pic I check the checkbox just for that post.
