aklsjdfklasjdfklasjfklasf SO sorry that this is late T___T
General: Water
(Current Count: 5)
April showers! 8D It actually rained on Friday, and it never rains here. So, this week's theme is pretty simple: Your icon just has to feature water in some form. It can be waterbending, the ocean, ice, etc. That's your only limit :)!
Image: S1 Location Caps
(Current Count: 9)
These caps are really beautiful *g* These caps were taken by agnikai, and you can find the full zips here. Meanwhile, I've picked 9 caps for you to use; you can find them under the cut.
Feel free to crop them further if you wish. Be creative! :D Remember that these must be the only caps featured in your icon. You may combine these caps, but you may not use caps, etc. that aren't here.

There are so many lovely songs from American Doll Posse, but I think this one is by far the most flexible as far as lyrics are concerned. :) Anyway, without further ado, here are the lyrics~!
We climbed through the canopy
only to find a crack in our gauge
The last thing a look you gave
and then we tumbled out of control
I tried to strike a deal with
the universe me and my
deals with the universe
Smacked upside of the head
with the harsh of daylight
So simple last evening
The beauty of speed
Afraid we've been changing
in a way I wasn't loving
Feel those colors changing
The beauty of speed
I'm coming back for more
out of a black and white world
Past a shooting star
The beauty of speed
See the colors changing
Even still I was built
to tolerate your temperature
It fluctuates so I must break
through the bleak of winter
Through your latest barrier
Your latest barrier
Smacked upside of the head
with the harsh of daylight
So simple last evening
The beauty of speed
Afraid we've been changing
in a way I wasn't loving
Feel those colors changing
The beauty of speed
I'm coming back for more
out of my black and white world
Past a shooting star
The beauty of speed
See the colors changing
Baby. Changing
I see the colors changing
Afraid we've been changin'
in a way I wasn't lovin'
Feel these colors changing
The beauty of speed
