I created two sigils yesterday specifically for the purposes of online journalling. This may interest you if you also keep an online journal or blog. The first one is quite particular to my needs, which is to learn more about myself and construct a coherent identity through the process. Furthermore, I can be frivolous with my posting. I have often set up journals and post feverishly for the first month, only to neglect it, if not forget about it altogether, after a couple of months. Thus the first sigil is also combined with the objective to commit to the writing:

Identity and longevity
My next sigil is created to inspire respect in its readers, minimising the chances of receiving visitors who feel the need to offer unsolicited advice or simply act out destructive and offensive behaviour for kicks. It also promotes interest in the journal itself, both enhancing the wit and articulacy of the writer as well as engages the audience. Finally, it secures the privacy of the journal and protects it from unwanted eyes:

Respect, engagement and privacy
If you feel this may be useful for you, feel free to adapt my technique or take my sigils for your own use. I pasted them in the user details section of my Livejournal to activate their effects. Rather than using these large pictures, I drew them as small 50×50px icons. Once again, you are most welcome to take these for your use:

Those look great! How do I use them?
Hemlock, those are wonderful sigils. Since you extended the kind invitation to use them, I have placed them on my blog, and will do a ritual to fire them off into the universe when I get a chance. I think sigils become stronger when used by many people.
Thanks for sharing them!
I have taken these for my new LJ, which I hope will fare better than the last.
Kind regards.
