I'm totally rooting for you to make a Icon progression post. Just so you know. ;) Meanwhile, I'm trying to be more social . ;) :p Totally agree with you on the itsbattlefield community , just a stress free fun creative community .
Aw thank you! Every time I check the nom post I see like 5 new people and I feel like I have to share. I take way too long to choose and that eats my computer time :P I do have to check to see if I have anything from the months I was only seldom checking LJ (I was focused with my Master's thesis).
I am trying my best to be social too! I just don't like friending people just 'cause. So I'm working on adding more comms to my watch list so I am more exposed to icons.
And yeah, itsabattlefield is so chill. I wish I had entered a few of the longer battles but I often could only get half of them done. I'm too much of a perfectionist, oops :)
Just today I started following 4 new people , icon makers, so that I can see more stuff in my feed and kind of making it a point to kick myself to interact. lol. I make icons super fast . Today I just made 21 icons in 3 and half hours , which makes it 1 icon in 10 minutes. Actually , some of my best icons are those which I've made really fast and those which I dilly dally come out not so good lol.
I've been doing the same. I fear I'll now miss other posts but whatever, haha. I need to find more communities to find other fandom iconmakers.
I used to make them fast and I can still make them if they're simple-is. I just take longer if I have to do some fake background or find a texture. (I suck at finding the texture I want!) But yeah, sometimes the ones you make the fastest look the best! You had an idea and could put it in there. And sometimes, some caps just need some simple coloring :)
I am (v slowly, admittedly) going through all the icons I made this year and I think I love the ones I made for the couple of small/big battles I entered the most. So thank you for having such great themes :)
I don't have much reach but the community deserves all the members it can find! ♥

Well I really appreciate it! I hope to ask other comms if I can post a promotion. We'll see if it works to get more members. :)
