Icon Meme

[alwaysjbj]

An icon meme, because icon love is always good!

1. Reply to this post, and I will pick five 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.

Snagged from sevvy_o




1. selene2 made this one for me because I am a huge Monty Python and the Holy Grail fan, and this scene with Tim the Enchanter is one of my favourite scenes.



2. This icon is by talesofspike and she gave me permission to use it. I love it because it really does sum it all up...the characters that Joss created, and made us care about so deeply, are the reason why we are compelled to write--at least I know that they are my reason.



3. I made this icon from a photo I took over at Tangalooma resort on Moreton Island...it was taken at sunset, looking back towards Brisbane, or more correctly the Glasshouse Mountains north of Brisbane. The very pretty looking dark lumps jutting out of the water are actually ships that were purposefully sunk to create an artificial reef.



4. I made this one for a competition, it was my first attempt at blending two different pics on such a small canvas, and I was really happy with the result.



5. This fabulous icon is by rahirah and I just love it--it appeals to the Spuffy-lover in me as well as the unsouled-Spike fan. I still love souled Spike, but I like him best pre-soul.




ETA: These ones were picked by dawnofme



This one was made by _tayler and I've had this for almost as long as I've had my LJ. It is just so pretty...so many yummy Spike bits to choose from! lol

This one I snagged from someone on my flist years ago, and it was uncredited so I have never known who made it (if you know, please let me know so I can credit). I love it because, well, he does! lol I'm not a fan of weepy hide in the corner and quiver Spike.

I made this one because I have a habit of dusting Mr Broody pants ocasionally been known to dust Angel. *grin*

selene2 made this icon for our BtVS/AtS writing community good__evil

LOL I have had this icon (in one form or another) since I first got my LJ. I made it because, well...what's not to like? lol And have remade it a couple of times since as my PS skills have improved. The first version was soooo dark.

Lovely icons - I especially love rahirah's, but your sunset picture is just gorgeous.

OK, I'm game. Pick some icons!

[alwaysjbj.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I was quite happy with the sunset shot.

Here you go, I mostly went for non-BtVS icons, although there was one very pretty one that just I couldn't resist.

Very good meme. I like the Giles with the rose you made.
Mine aren't very exciting but...hit me and I'll send it on if I can.

[alwaysjbj.livejournal.com]

LOL Yours is hard because I already know the reasons behind most of them...so I think I shall just pick ones i like.









And one that made me go 'huh?'


And I rather like that King of Swing one too! *grin* How is the boy?

[harlemraine.livejournal.com]

I knew it would be hard finding ones that you didn't get. LOL...I'm glad the Volvo one confused you.
The boy is fine. Thought he had a chance with the girls the other night when they got out. That was until the electric fence fried his sorry ass...ROFLMAO!!! This morning he had taken down the back fence and was munching his way through the weeds...GRRR!!!
BTW I love the King of Swing icon too...**HUGS**

I do love icons and this MEME!

I have been got in the past, but I am quite happy to do it again, if you want to know about any of mine.

btw - I love your icons 4 & 5 in that choice!

[alwaysjbj.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

LOL Here you go...

Ah - I love them all. But especially love the one Tales did, and rahirah's - they really express what we find so irresistible about these characters. The beach scene is lovely - I do love water. :)

They really do, don't they?

Here you go...you have lots of very pretty Spikes

[next_to_normal]

Do me! Do me!

[alwaysjbj.livejournal.com]

It was a hard choice...you have some very funny, and some very pretty icons!

After the hilarious way that David Fury described SMG's runing ability, I just had to pick this one.

[next_to_normal]

Uh... is LJ being funky? That third icon is not one of mine. Also, when I got the email notification of your comment, I could've sworn that icon wasn't there, and it WAS one of mine, but I don't remember which one.

[alwaysjbj.livejournal.com]

Hmm...the third one showing for me is your body outline and "ouch"...but there is an LJ glitch that causes that to happen http://www.livejournal.com/support/

[next_to_normal]

Yeah, must have been glitchy. It showed up wrong on two different computers, but I cleared the cache and it seems to be fixed.

[velvetwhip.livejournal.com]

I can see why you love those icons. Don't pick icons from me, though...

Thank you!

[sevvy-o.livejournal.com]

OH I don't remember anything from the one Monty Python movie I've seen so yeah that icon confused me. =)

[alwaysjbj.livejournal.com]

Hee!...you must see Holy Grail!

Is this an 'official' comment? *grin*

[sevvy-o.livejournal.com]

Hmm, I don't know, I think I'm icon-ed out after 15. =)

[alwaysjbj.livejournal.com]

LOL Fair enough!
