OK, so what are you doing differently to post your twitter stuff that makes it unfilterable? Not using LoudTwitter, obviously, but what exactly is going on?

It's a custom script, not LoudTwitter or Twittinesis. It's not that it's doing anything to 'make it unfilterable' - it's that your filter isn't a 'Twitter filter' it's a 'LoudTwitter filter'.

Okay, sorry for being imprecise. By not using a CSS class, it becomes impossible to filter it using the 'normal' methods. If it used any class declaration I could use that to hide it (just most of the big ones use loudtwitter by default).

Depending on the power of whatever tool you're using, you could hide the grandparent of the first 'a' tag whose href attribute matches 'http://twitter.com/azurelunatic/statuses/'.

If you wanted to be extra careful, you could check that the grandparent is a ul tag.

The ul tag matches the CSS selector '#content-wrapper ul', if it's any help. You'd still need to check for references to Twitter, though - squashing just '#content-wrapper ul' would kill ANY unordered lists, which probably isn't good.

OTOH, there's exactly two people in the world using this particular Twitter posting script, so you could just live with it. :o)

I think I have you beaten on verbosity - 'The last 121 things I posted to Twitter' appeared on my LJ on Monday. ;o)

I'll look at it if I get a chance tomorrow. I thought it was already selecting a userpic?

Oh, okay. Must have been someone else I set that up for.

It can definitely be done. In fact, I think I'm doing it for my own posts!
