Six Icon Meme
I finally got this to work. Finally.
This is ganked from azriona, who ganked it from wiggiemomsi. Here's how it works:
1. Reply to this post, and I will pick six of your icons.
2. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon glee.
(azriona got a little excited and picked eight, so -- what the hell -- I did all of them.)
redscharlach is one of my favorite iconers for her twisted sense of humor. When I saw her take on the horrifying Torchwood episode "Countrycide" -- bug-eyed Ianto as Doctor Who's Bad Wolf? -- I had to have it.
I love the subtlety and depth of this one, by blackicons -- the black-and-white coloring, and the softness, contrasting with the playfulness of the words and the basketball hoop in the background. It's comforting as well, a depiction of Torchwood in happier times.
hexiva iconed this after it was posted at fanficrants. Yes, somebody actually wrote that :) Although, as I sit here typing this in MS Word, those "annoying red lines" are everywhere. What do you mean, "iconed" isn't a word?
I'm a fan of both Coupling and Doctor Who, and this icon, by skadi-snowshoe, combines the two. (Appropriately, since Steven Moffat created the first and has written for, and now become showrunner of, the second.) I really like the coloring, too.
I liked the randomness of this quote from Martha Jones' MySpace blog, iconed by la_esmeralda_. (But I can't help wondering who writes blogs for fictional characters.)
Burn Gorman's not a bad-looking guy, but apparently he's really hard to icon well. I looked at a lot of them, trying to find one that did Owen justice, before coming across this one by miss_jaffacake, which is also beautifully colored.
Another from fanficrants . rainbowpubes responded to my request for an icon of this quote in which a reviewer completely missed the point of slashfic. And it's such a lovely shade of purple, too!
And with this one we've come full circle, back to redscharlach . Torchwood's Captain John, by way of Amy Winehouse.
So, would anyone else like to do this?
