debris4spike1. Comment to this entry saying 'ICONS!' and I will pick 6 of your icons.
2. Make an entry in your own journal and talk about the icons I picked!
I have done this meme a few times now - but I do love my icons, and like reading why other people use the ones they do. Behind the cut are 6 icons that
fenchurche picked for me - and amazingly, one of them is one that always gets chosen!! This one was made especially for me by
alwaysjbj when I asked for a couple of icons to use when I do a post/comment about work. She adapted the Australian Chiropractic Association logo - and I love this image. Using the actual title, as well as the image of what my profession represents - treating the whole body. This is the one everyone asks about - one of the few I have made for myself. It is a viw taken through the damaged walls of Tintagel Castle (about 1/2 hours drive from me), and shows the cliffs, and the Atlantic ... the view that I actually have around me all the time I am in Bude.
Jiffy is Mum and Dad's West Highland terrier- who is now 3 1/2, and has regular pic scams filling up your LJ's.
jaded_jamie keeps threatening to steal him, as he thinks he is a cutie - but instead he made me 3 beautiful icons, showing "sir" - This is the first of the set. This is now my default icon and was especially made for me by
kazzy_cee who has made quite a few of my specialist icons. She made me one a couple of years ago, where the colours changed - and I love that effect, as it is quite unusual to all those I see. So, I asked if she could update the last one - which she did, using a photograph that O took of James at Union Chapel this May. My default used to be a Spike one - but since my first concert 2 years ago, it is James!
This one is one I actually "designed" but
snowgrouse made for me. It is from a BBC TV series called Blakes 7 - and was on from 1978 - 1982. A sci-fi series, with great characters, reasonable plots, wobbly scenery - and the most amazing one liners ... This is one near the start of season 1, by a person called Vila. My favourite character (an anti0hero who wore a lot of balck leather ...!!!), had some great lines - My favourite of his is :- "Regret is part of being alive, but make it a small part" Another specialist one made by
kazzy_cee I play a clarinet in an orchestra - and asked her for an icon ... its hard to get a long instrument into a square ... but this is lovely. Sorry - I can't get the cut to work - my brain must be fried in the shock of the sunshine we have had over the last couple of days!!
As ever, I do offer if anyone wants to know about any others of my icons - you only have to ask.

Date: 2009-09-18 07:13 am (UTC)1: I wanted an icon to show when I was happy, it's as simple as that LOL So I made that one. I use this con for posts or comment where I am happy :)
2: I am a Christian and her name is Faith and saying "Have Faith" (as her name is faith) Has other connotations that I thought were funny so I made that. I don't use this icon for anything specific, I let the random icon chooser pick it randomly...
3: This is my favourite advert for season 4 of Doctor Who and so when I saw this icon on a comm, I gakked it and used it. It's the Doctor, I don't need a better reason than that to has the icon X-D I don't use this icon for anything specific, I let the random icon chooser pick it randomly...
4: I saw this screencap of Spike and instantly thought of the MWA kissy noise. So I made that icon hehe I don't use this icon for anything specific, I let the random icon chooser pick it randomly...
5&6: Okay, I met
There you go chuck X-D
