Icon meme (yes, I'm a sheep again)
It's not like I have loads of cool icons. It is, however, very much like I'm still enjoying my expanded userpic space! So I'll do the meme all the cool kids are doing...if I can do this right
I changed a few categories that I didn't like or would be redundant ("used the most" and "favorite" would be my default, or my favorite fandom) or I didn't have (animated):
MAH ICONS.
default oldest newest
saddest happiest most obscure
cutest silliest funniest
most unusual fave fandom fave pet
best quote best textual best stolen idea
cutest favorite
For "best stolen idea": I didn't know how I'd do this one, but then I went to leave a comment on a story and saw that sg_fignewton had exactly the same image! I got a screencap from Gateworld to make it, so I did the work, but I guess I took her idea!
ETA: sg_betty pointed out that aurora_novarum has basically the same shot but with a caption! I'm more of a sheep than I realized! Baaa!
HOW MANY ICONS DO YOU HAVE: 36
OUT OF HOW MANY AVAILABLE ICONS SPACES: 195! Miles to go!
IF YOU COULD BUY SPACE FOR MORE, WOULD YOU: that would be silly since I've used just over a fifth of my spaces!
DO YOUR ICONS MAKE A STATEMENT: I'm a silly person? I watch too much tv? Actually, I think the most coherent statement might be, "I like friendship stories!" Many of my icons show two or three friends (sometimes four); the only one that even shows something like a ship is my Torchwood icon--this one--
--but there was no way I could use it, because while I'm happy with Jack and Ianto slash, I've got Gwen in the picture too, and I'm not shipping her with either of those boys! (Gwen belongs with Rhys!). Obviously, I changed the "ship" category.
WHAT FANDOM DO YOU HAVE THE MOST ICONS OF: Stargate SG-1
AND THE SECOND MOST: I just realized: it's a tie between Doctor Who
and
and Shaun the Sheep!
and
There's something a little wrong with that! (Need more DW!)
WHAT SHIP DO YOU HAVE THE MOST ICONS OF: FRIENDship!
ARE YOUR ICONS MADE MOSTLY BY OTHER PEOPLE: No--I tend to use screencaps other people have done and cut them the way I want them. I find most of my pictures with Google Images. I've snerched a few from other people (with credit), and my husband made my Monk one (after I got the picture the way I wanted it) and the quotation from The Librarian 3.
DO YOU MAKE ICONS: yes
ARE THEY ANY GOOD: I think so (mostly)
ANIMATED ICONS ARE: beyond me at this point
DO THE MEME.
