Week 132: Challenge

[eggdrpsoup]

Theme Challenge

This week's theme:
The Solar System

You must have the name of any of the eight planets (we still love you, Pluto D:) or their moons in your icon. The Sun is okay too. But try to be more creative and use something else other than Sun, Earth, Moon or the "Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus" quote. Best if you could leave a little note too, something like, "Io is one of Jupiter's moons." Dwarf planets, asteroids and certain asteroids are alright to use too. Helpful links?
There are only three rules for these icons:

1. You must use an image from the 1982 animated film The Last Unicorn
   
2. The icon must somehow emphasize the theme.
   
3. If you're confused by anything, or have any questions, just ask. My contact info can be found in the community's info page.

Other notes: Any text is acceptable, though quotes from The Last Unicorn, either the movie or the novel, are preferable. Brushes, borders, etc. are perfectly fine. Also, it is perfectly acceptable for the text and/or brushes etc. in the icon convey the theme. Of course, all the usual rules also apply (you can't show your icon to anyone until after the winners have been announced, icons must be up to lj's standards, no animation, etc.).
