Icons meme!
Sorry it took so long, kirke_novak! Livejournal didn't send me the comment notification, and I only remembered to check back today. :( Here tis now!
Comment and I'll pick seven of your icons, and then you will explain why you love/are using the icon (who doesn't love talking about their icons, seriously) and then post your explanation/this meme in your journal for other people to squee about their icons, and basically it will be a huge squeefest of love and 100x100 square pixels.
courage
This is Shakespeare from Meerkat Manor, to which my housemate introduced me. I needed a generic icon and this guy was such a fighter. *sniff*
untitled
This is, unbelievably, a Simple Plan song. It's about drink driving and is very sad. I like multifandom icons, because they take less space, and this one even has Sirius from Shoebox Project! Also, Carson from Atlantis, Sam from TWW, Greg from CSI, Jonas from SG and Speed from CSI: M. (I've just realised that only one of those characters is still alive/on the show. Oh dear.)
modern dalek
I made this icon after watching 'Dalek', and my friend was whining that even Doctor Who is post-modern. I like using this as my touchy-feely icon, though it's also qutie funny.
cutie pie
Aww, yay, Cutie Pie! This is a series of pictures I took at Wolf SG11, where Peter Flemming was a delightful con virgin. So, when the questions fell off, I popped up to the mike and asked him to sing. Which he did. Then he started hiking up his shirt. My friends called on him to strip. So he took off his shirt. (He also danced with me and serenaded me before our photograph.)
That was a good convention.
hold me
Ah, Savage Garden's 'Hold Me'. I always wanted to write a Clark/Lex futurefic to this song, but I made an icon instead. I used conflict pairings in the beginning - Bruce/Dick, Clark/Lex and Lee/Kara - and comfort pairings at the end - Sam/Daniel, Jack/Stephen and Horatio/Archie.
monitor duty
I took up monitor_duty at the beginning of the year and was struggling to find an appropriate icon. One of my friends uses Oracle but my fave, Nightwing, doesn't really monitor. However, Ted does and I found this great picture of him on monitor duty, obviously working hard.
wanna play
Jack being cheeky is always fun. I made a set of Torchwood icons to Muse's 'Time is Running Out'. This is the one I chose to use full time, because it is perfectly Jack and I really love that scene. It's been all my slash senses started screaming and I stared and started, thinking 'There is actually no innocent way to interpret this. Oh. My. Life.'
