An icon maker friending meme!

Hello icon_talk!

Yesterday I made a post here at the community where I asked people to give their opinion regarding how quiet the icon community has become, and the reason why people seem to be leaving LJ. I also asked for suggestions on what we could do to make people more interested and engaged again. An icon maker friending meme was one of the

Real name and age: Christina, 23

Where do you live?: USA

Is your personal journal friends-locked or public?: It's public right now, but I'm seriously considering making it semi-friends only.

What do you write about in your personal journal (fandom, real life or both?) A little of each. I mostly post icons, but I also write about real life and sometimes a bit about my fandoms.

Which fandoms are you most active in: Narnia and period dramas (Emma [2009], Pride and Prejudice [1995], Sense and Sensibility [1996 and 2008], Persuasion [movie version], Little Dorrit, Cranford, North and South, Bleak House, The Young Victoria, etc.)and some other miniseries (Sherlock ^^). Some anime (Detective Conan, Oofuri, and Giant Killing especially) and KDramas (Goong [Princess Hours], Beethoven Virus, Dae Jang Geum [Jewel in the Palace], My Princess), also stock and fashion. Oh, yes, and Yu-na Kim! ^^

How long have you been making icons/graphics and where do you post them?: About 6 years. My personal journal wunderkind_lucy

What do you like to make the most (icons, headers, resources, tutorials)?: I like making icons and resources (textures and bases) the best, but I also enjoy doing tutorials.

Who is you favorite graphic artist/icon maker/tutorial writer, who is your biggest inspiration? (you can post examples if you want): probably my sister aravisautarkeia who got me started in graphics making. Another favorite would be elea24, but I tend to go by certain styles rather than by certain makers.

One thing you want any potential friend to know about you: I am very passionate about the things I believe in/like/love. I love most things Asian (being half-Korean).

Anything else?: Not really. ^^

Oh yes! Narnia, and PERIOD DRAMAS.

I love most things Asian, too!!!! ♥!

[aurora_amethyst]

YAY!!!!! It's hard to find people who like period dramas and Asians things too! :D

[incandescent]

I know! But they're both so wonderful! And I can draw some connection between them and why they're similar, though it'd be a stretch. Most people I know only like one or the other and it makes me SAD because they don't understand the joy. ♥!

[aurora_amethyst]

I know what you mean!

I'm glad there's at least one person out there that understands! ^^

[incandescent]

Yes, we understand each other! Friends!

[aurora_amethyst]

Of course! ^^

[aurora_amethyst]

Sure! :D

Love your layout btw! ^^
