base meme

[enriana]

Meme closed. Working on all of this, will post results in a new post as well as replying to the comments on this post.One of the cures for my current rut (post-big-project-rut) is a new project. As that icon interest meme has been exhausted (at least for now), and the quote meme ended up being a flop (not enough iconable quotes), I thought I'd try

We could use pictures from here: http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/archivepix.html

They would be lovely!

[enriana]

Yes, they would. :) I'll add them to the list of base ideas when I get a chance, I have a feeling Ty would love them.

Though, if you're participating in the meme, you get to choose the topic, not the picture source. :P

[twilight_echo]

Oh! I think I misread. The topic could be "Space." ^^

[jodifer]

So...do we just comment saying that we'd like one? Or do we give you ideas of the base we want?

[enriana]

You give me the topic, I'll give you the bases. :) Sorry if that wasn't clear - I'm good at rambling and forgetting what my point was in the first place. :P

[jodifer]

tehe...I know that feeling quite well.

my topic:
Anne Frank or anything to do with her inspiring optimism

[spurious]

fashion photography, such as in foto_decadent.

[enriana]

I hope this is what you had in mind. :) Really must use that source more often for pretties.

[spurious]

oooh, those are fabulous!

[effervescent]

Ooh, I love this idea - I just have to see if I can actually choose just one idea for bases. But I have a question - for the quotes meme being a flop, are you referring to the Oscar Wilde quotes you mentioned awhile ago? Because I was really looking forward to those icons, and I'd thought the response to them would be good.

[enriana]

Oh, no. Those are still on, though they might take a bit to get posted - slow progress. Most are better as baseless icons (no images, just texture-y things), and I'm not as used to working with those, so it's harder.

What I was referring to was a post from a while ago; people could choose one quote and we'd make it into an icon for them, only about half got done and it didn't work out so well.

As for choosing one idea, you could wait a bit and see if others' choices narrow it down at all. ;P

[jodifer]

O on the topic of the quote memes...even though they didn't work out perfectly, you still did get in a lot of icons and I was wondering if you were planning on making a post of all of them. I'd loove to be able to see em' all since I'm sure I'd like quotes that other people thought of. But I know you are quite busy, so no worries...just wondering.

[enriana]

The other designers did more of the work in that one... I'll post on the designers' community when I get a chance, and I'll include the ones I did in my next icon post. :)

Women in white dresses, who aren't (obviously) brides.

[enriana]

Hope this is what you had in mind. :)

[sparrow_wings]

Oh yes, those are lovely, especially the second one. Thank you!

[allie_meril]

Pretty!

I took the first one.
