Icon-Explaining Meme

[gloriajn]

This is the "Icon-Explaining Meme" (one of many that's been going around). Comment here and I'll pick 7 of your icons; you explain here or in your LJ what they mean to you and why you're using them.

In the meantime, here are my icons that copperwise asked about:

Go! Do me!

Gladly! ;)

How about:

1. 
   
   
2. 
   
   
3. 
   
   
4. 
   
   
5. 
   
   
6. 
   
   
7. 
   

And now that I'm doing better, we should try and arrange that phone call!

That would be wonderful! How about this coming Thursday night at 9 EST (6 PST)?

Thursday night at 9 p.m. EST sounds good. As far as I know, I should be available. I know you have my cell, right?

I'll get to explaining these - but in the meantime, how did you get them to show up in your LJ like that?

(I'm such a dork when it comes to stuff like this.)

Terrific! I'll put it on my calendar. I can't wait!

And yes, I'm pretty sure I have your cell number, because I sent you a text message a couple of weeks ago. If it turns out I don't have it, I'll let you know.

Hey, no problem!

First, I set up an Ordered List1:

< ol >
< li >< img src = " Address (URL) " >
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
< li >< img src = " Address (URL) " >
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
< li >< img src = " Address (URL) " >
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
< li >< img src = " Address (URL) " >
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
< li >< img src = " Address (URL) " >
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
< li >< img src = " Address (URL) " >
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
< li >< img src = " Address (URL) " >
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

To get your userpics, I right-clicked on the icon, left-clicked on "Properties", and brought up this page (as an example):



Then, you highlight the link to the photo, where it says "Address (URL)" in "Properties", copy it, and paste it in between the quotes in img src="". In other words, you'll put the link INSTEAD OF the words "Address (URL)". Oh, and substitute the XXXs for your words that will explain your icons. :)

I hope that makes sense. If not, please let me know.

1Before you paste this into your LJ, take out ALL the spaces in the HTML code. I left the spaces in so the code would show up. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to see what I was talking about! :)
