G! I! P!

[mikkeneko]

Thanks to the majesty of anax, I have sooo much iconspace now. :D I've uploaded all the icons I have that I like, and I still have room for more.

Normally I'd look in the icon posts that pass by fm_alchemist for inspiration, but I realized a while back that the sorts of icons I really want, nobody makes. ;_;

So instead of going hunting for icons, I want icons to come to me. >.>

Here is a challenge for you.

Bring me icons. Either made yourself, or link me (as specifically as possible) to places where they're available. My interest priority list goes like this.

1) A "Menage" icon
2) An Ed/Scieszka icon
3) A really nice Roy/Ed icon
4) An "I am floored by good fic" icon. I don't have one specifically for that. No, it doesn't have to say that. Just adequately express the sentiment.

Please direct me to individual icons when possible... just saying "This person's icons are really good" and sending me to look at hundreds only leaves me confused. I have no eye for art, I can't decide between icons when faced with so many of them.

I'd ask for really funny icons generally, but I've found that while I like looking at them, I don't really use them once I have them. o.o

Now, what will you get for bringing me icons? >.>

1) My eternal gratitude.
2) Ficlet up to 250 words per icon of your choice of subject. Multiple icons can be combined together for longer fics. :D
3) You only get the reward if I like the icon enough to use it. Sorry.

You can also just point me to particularly nice icons that you like or think I'll like, but I'm more likely to take them (and thus give you your fic) if they're one of those four.

People who get fic so far:

Did someone want Icons?

Considering I just did an icon hunt the other day, I'm sure I can help.

I don't know any for 1 and 2 (Though I totally bet you could bribe ask sky_dark to make you one...she's a Roy/Ed fanatic) but I've got a ton for three.....

Roy/Ed

Roy/Ed song set, Billy Joel's Matter of Trust.

Song Set -- Sneaker Pimps' Waterbaby (R/E soundtrack)
moonygirl_icons has a lot of R/E ones. Those are just the one's I'm using and liked the most. She also has premade layouts you can use. Her first entry is also a place for requests, so you could easily ask for something if you had a particular idea in mind.

Number 14 (and 15, without animation) work as R/E icons or just Roy and Ed interaction icons. 4 is a nice one of cosplay!Al too.

celas_grant did fan art for kytyngurl2's fic The Grand Struggle (http://www.livejournal.com/users/kytyngurl2/45500.html#cutid1) sky_dark then colored it and iconized it.

Just some neat FMA icons I've found...

The Roy and Ed emotions.

16 and 21 are really neat here.

8 is a cool 7 sins icon.

http://www.livejournal.com/users/gnicons/3648.html#cutid1
1 is really funny.

http://www.livejournal.com/users/gnicons/2601.html#cutid1
*points to icon* That one comes from here. We've also got a really nice Al one. 1 and 3 respectfully.

http://www.livejournal.com/community/another_icon_lj/10114.html#cutid3
The infamous verb icons.

You can find tunetherainbow's Indiana Ed icon here http://www.livejournal.com/allpics.bml?user=sky_dark

Also, we have sky_dark's A!S, F!S, R!S and HoS icons.

As for 4, the only one I have is a Fruits Basket one. If you see anything else on in my icon list that you want, I'll be glad to link you to that as well.

Oh, and most of those want credit and comments. ^^ Hope this helps!

Re: Did someone want Icons?

[mikkeneko.livejournal.com]

Ooh, finally! A Roy/Ed icon I REALLY REALLY LOVE. What shall you have for your drabble?

Re: Did someone want Icons?

[bard-linn.livejournal.com]

That's a good one. ^^

.........Roy/Ed of some sort? Prefferably on the happy side as opposed to the angsty side?

Though I really did this for your undying gratitude.

[solitude1056.livejournal.com]

Take a look also at some of the ones Incidental posted a day or two ago: http://www.livejournal.com/community/aesthetikons/7298.html ... my favorites are 65 and 71, but 70 just cracks me up.

[mikkeneko.livejournal.com]

Oooh, thanks. ("I'm super, thanks for asking!")

[cephiedvariable.livejournal.com]

??

Also, the "fancy" versions:

[mikkeneko.livejournal.com]

:o What does it say?

[cephiedvariable.livejournal.com]

^___^;; Sorry, I tend to put text on for decoration rather than, uh, saying stuff a lot of the time.

It says: "Perhaps there are some passions which are tempered by the years..." and then Temperance. It's a line from 'Where Are They Now' by Al Stewart, which was the last track on the Roy/Ed FST. o_O

[mikkeneko.livejournal.com]

Oh, good, thought I was going blind. ^^;

[kawaiimae.livejournal.com]

slightly old, but fancied up the plain Helios icon you've got. Also happens to have a quote from devils_devotion's fic Play on Nerds, but it doesn't have to just apply to rabid fans of her fic, so.



If you're intrigued by this (or, indeed, by the one I'm using now), feel free to look into kawaii_no_icons, where I post alongside the piece of lovely known as septem_lucifera.

And, pray tell, how would someone express the idea of 'I am floored by goodfic'?

[mikkeneko.livejournal.com]

Hmm, I'll consider this one. And take a look at your comm when I can.

[saya-aensland.livejournal.com]

Well, my image editing programs suck sweaty donkey balls, but I tried.

[mikkeneko.livejournal.com]

I like it. :D *takes*

[mikkeneko.livejournal.com]

What would you like for your request drabble?

[saya-aensland.livejournal.com]

Anything non-Menage Ed/Sheska would do. =D Thank you.

[mikkeneko.livejournal.com]

Well, that certainly leaves it open. ^_^; *hunts around for ideas*

[saya-aensland.livejournal.com]

Decided to take a stab at an Ed/Sheska icon too, since noone else seemed to be doing it...

[mikkeneko.livejournal.com]

Eee! You rock! *glomps and takes*

[bard-linn.livejournal.com]

Can I take it too? Please? *sparkly eyes*

[saya-aensland.livejournal.com]

Go ahead. ^^

[bard-linn.livejournal.com]

Yay!

[feast.livejournal.com]

Hmm..here's an EdSheska icon. I tried. ^^;

[mikkeneko.livejournal.com]

My icon says it all. What would you like for your drabble?

[feast.livejournal.com]

Hmm..something Ed/Al/Winry.

(I'm amazed that you picked mine. XD Thank you!)

[mikkeneko.livejournal.com]

I'll see what I can do. :D
