Melinda! Hey, I wasn't aware you had an LJ account also -- I'll have to go and friend you...
You don't have to have an icon, but most people do. In fact, most people have several. You can upload them into your LJ account -- look under your Profile for "Manage Userpics." The file(s) you upload need to be .jpgs at no more than 100 x 100 pixels, I believe.
I just went to your website, snatched the picture you have on the index page, cropped it square and scaled it down to 100 x 100. I'll send it to you via e-mail as an example -- you can use it or not as you wish...
