Baaa.
Comment and I'll pick seven of your icons. You are to explain why you love/are using this icon; post your explanation/this meme in your journal. From
aeroporto:
Smudger // This is my mad face - Alan Smith, of course, having a bit of a sulk and a scowl over something. (This is in black and white because it looked awful in colour but I liked the cropping too much to scrap it like I normally would.) In theory this should be used when I'm being a bit petulant. Mostly it exists because I love the man.
Gary & Becks // You're my world - Yeah so this is pretty much my favourite photo of them ever. I had the hardest time iconing it and it's not that great, but I lovelovelove this picture. And I desperately needed a Gaz/Becks icon because... dude, it's Gaz/Becks. I can't not have an icon for my OTP. (And they are my OTP because they are the loveliest, most unexpected pair of best friends in the world.) The keyword comes from the lyrics of
Sally Cinnamon because it's a gorgeous song and has United connections.
Ichabod Crane // Autopsy - First of all, I'm probably the only person in the world who doesn't fancy Johnny Depp. That aside, this is his character in Sleepy Hollow cutting open a corpse and getting blood sprayed in his face. =) Used for awkward/uncomfortable things.
Ten // Three-dimensional - I made this, along with two others, for the final of a Doctor Who Last-Icon-Maker-Standing icontest. And won! So I was very pleased with myself. Is the Tenth Doctor, of course. And... yeah, this is mostly just here because I thought it was pretty. Also I fancy David Tennant.
Billy & Michael // *is gay for* - Agh, this is sooo ooold. I don't even use it because I don't like it (it's so oversharpened, ugh) but I've never been able to remake it to my satisfaction. Anyway, it's Michael from Billy Elliot eyeing up the titular character and being tiny and adorable. Historically this has been used when I'm being lame at
bottle_of_smoke.
Renton // The worst toilet in Scotland - The famous bit of Trainspotting, of course! Ewan McGregor going toilet-diving. (Drugs are bad, kids.) I made a set of icons for this movie ages ago and this was one of the ones I liked enough to actually use. Fallen out with it a bit cause it is old but it's not that bad. Generally used for unpleasant things, you will be shocked to learn.
Kuszczak // Name - Poor Tomasz, no one can ever spell his name right.(I love his name. And him. How can you not love someone with three Zs in their name? I was so pleased with myself when I finally managed to spell it right without looking.) A cap from that video Man United released about the new kit, which has such thrilling things as Rooney trying to pants Gaz and all that. This really has no practical use and isn't that great an icon, but it makes me smile. Also
petarrr uses it too and my puny little brain always gets slightly confused when she does.
