Re: icons

My least favorite is Jin, probably because I really know nothing about that fandom.

Samurai Champloo is not my favorite anime series ever, but I liked the character of Jin. I especially like this picture because Jin is normally very reserved and wears layers of clothing with his hair back in a tight ponytail. Seeing him this undone had a lot of emotional impact for me, and it serves its duty as an icon for sad posts.

You should totally use the "It's a plot device" one more often

I want to (I love that icon), but usually an obvious plot device is the least of the problems I have with a show/movie. So far, I've only been able to use it for that craptastic episode of Torchwood where Gwen and Rhys got married.

And I don't really know why you have the kaleidescope one, other than it's pretty.

Yeah, that's pretty much it. When I first started uploading icons, I decided I needed at least one icon that was non-fannish. I'd been playing around with Kaleidoscope Painter online and finally figured out how to capture and save my creations, so I spent part of an evening making kaleidoscopes and turning them into icons. I made about 7 of them, but I liked this one the best.
