I am using about half my allotment right now (seed account). Exactly 125 icons. I am pretty good about using my icons on posts, but I almost never change my icon when I comment.
I did hit the limit pretty often on LJ, when it was 15 or 30 icons. Once they introduced the add-on, I was content. Once the icon limit gets into the 100+ range, I stop worrying.
Now that I have 250 icons, I am starting to treat the /icons page a little like a button-covered jacket or bag. I will upload icons I don't really intend to use because they're cool, or representative of my interests or aesthetic.
