[Edit] Dear entire rest of universe: All of these are stealable (with normal LJ icon-stealing conditions), unless noted otherwise. [/Edit]

This is partly for me, because I want somewhere to keep a semi-organised showcase of icons I'm reasonably fond of. Some appear in multiple categories, but that's because that's where they go and your browser's still only going to load them once. So:

Marvin

I think September Marvin stands out pretty easily. :)

Llama Song

Australian Politics

Iron Chef

Børk børk børk.

Alternative Popes

Firefly/Serenity/Whedon Icons

Star Wars(-esque)

Once again, the original icon for Lumberjack!Vader was by ebilsoki.

Miscellany

I tried to make a Nethack icon. I'll probably have another go at it sometime; we'll see.

Random Use Of An Odd Ad From A mock_the_stupid Link

metaicons

A note on spelling: that was from the metacomment. I know how to spell potus, but that wouldn't have been quite as fun.

icons_at_random Entries

Star Wars

So I got a bit Shakespearean about it. Happens. All the other entries were jokes.

Technology

Wait for the animation on the first one. It's (deliberately) easy to miss. 00100100 is Bender's apartment number, and ASCII for $.

Polaroid Photos

The flashy effect on the first one was a complete accident, but turned out to be a likeable one. Like post-it notes, really.

Food!

The middle one is made using the cheapest font ever. No, seriously. It was written by hand, twice, then liquefied. The chocolate one was made in 5 minutes.

1977

'Tis the Golden Record, from Voyager 1 and/or 2, with the text from... um... some famous person who I remembered the name of a few weeks ago.

Ewan McGregor

See the Scientology expression? Be thankful he's a Jedi Knight. According to the last census, I am too. The bad pun in the other icon is made worse by the fact that menfolk traditionally aren't my thing, especially not the ones in uniform.

Dinosaurs

Let's say I was inspired by the head being missing from the picture, and the mods not having found a decent stegosaurus with a head.

Deadly Sins

This one was sneaky. She qualifies for all of them, strictly according to the definitions used for that contest. It was mildly tricky to get it to loop, and the green ticks are slightly edited radical signs.

Black and White

Unfortunately, Sepia!Jayne didn't qualify as being strictly black and white, which makes for a mildly upsetting rule. The B&W Jayne icon should probably have been adjusted with a very small bit of blue, which oddly looks more like B&W than pure greyscale.

Clothes

I like using Very Odd interpretations. It makes things fun. And the spelling on the dress icon: The shooting scripts say so.

Google Search

This one was very fun to make, but somewhat tricky. This is the Contest Version, and is my second-most complex animated icon yet.

Icons for Others (NOT stealable without owner's permission)

lesslikeyou

Yes, I really do handwrite icons before typing them. What? It's not that strange.

And so ends the icons. For now, at least. Not all of them are there, but these things happen.

I own no digital camera, and my parents needed theirs back, so I had a few minutes to try to take pictures and copy them onto my PC to sift through later.

Turns out there's some not focused, some of the walls, some of out-of-focus walls, one in-focus shot of my eye, and someone forgot to turn sepia mode back off. Namely, me.

Psh! You need a digital camera!

::giggle:: Well, I guess those weird sepia toned eye shots will have to do.

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

I rather prefer film.

Well, that and I want a digital camera that can use the lenses from my film SLR, which means I'm currently looking at about 1800AUD of camera, less if I can buy one without the starter lens kit. And even then, that's pretty useless for quick, fun self-portrait photos, but lovely for all other digital photography. And I don't like taking photos of myself, so all is well.

The other one I've got my eye on is a 30AUD one that's smaller than credit card sized (but somewhat thicker), and probably has a pretty pathetic picture quality. Still, it'd be a lot more portable.

[eighthcloud.livejournal.com]

But the 30AUD camera could come in handy when you need to do random silly little photoposts (or take photos of body parts for icon communities).

The 1800AUD camera sounds like it'd be a wonderful thing to have. You should buy this one also.

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

The $30 camera would be fun for all kinds of things.

Like getting a photo of the shop window for, of all things, the "Woden Christian Bookshop". Spot the amusement value in that one.

The $1800 camera would sit neatly in the other pocket of my camera bag. That'd neatly make two camera bodies, two fantastically versatile lenses, a small assortment of lens filters (which reminds me, I must get another circular-polarising one), and miscellaneous extras.

[eighthcloud.livejournal.com]

neatness is essential.

Oh you must take a picture of your Christian Woody's.

I saw a sign yesterday that read "Your Mother". I believe it was a restaurant. I had to giggle at it though.

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

Woden, as in Odin, as in pagan deity. :)

bah. It's Wooden.

..although yours is funny too
