a good ol' fashioned meme

Snagged from [livejournal.com profile] gigglemonster:
01. Comment to this entry saying 'ICONS!' and I will pick 6 of your icons.
02. Make an entry in your own journal and talk about the icons I picked!

Lafayette! [True Blood] by [livejournal.com profile] wicked_signs
This is actually my most recent icon. I just found it recently. And it is just so perfectly Lafayette from True Blood. I love his character so, so much and am so glad he didn't suffer the same fate as in the books. Couldn't get enough of him in season two. He's so badass and caring and I heart him.

Boomer and Chief [BSG] by [livejournal.com profile] fracturedshapes
I love the coloring and the cropping and the raw emotion. There's just something about those two and those scenes from early season two that are so heartbreaking, especially given what ended up being true. BSG is true fandom love.

Jack/Sawyer [Lost] by me!
Well I made the icon so I'll refrain from commenting on the aesthetics, but I just loved this cap, it's so visceral and angry and heated and they are both really pissed off and I love that they're looking in the same direction, and yum. The end.

Insert Your Life Story Here by [livejournal.com profile] thecandystand
I love this icon. I really have a thing for well-done text icons. The color, the font, etc. very nice. I intend to use this one for life-posts but rarely get around to doing so. Shame.

Claire [LOST] by [livejournal.com profile] navras_rheya
One of my many Claire and/or Emilie icons. I really love this one, I love the coloring and the squinty-eye and the blowy-hair and the blur/brown texture and that she looks really pretty/vulnerable despite all that, and I'm 99% sure that she's talking to Jack in this scene so I love that too.

Cameron [TSCC] by [livejournal.com profile] ana_jo
I think I only have a couple TSCC icons. The love the black and white and the overall composition of this. B&W is sometimes hard to make beautiful but this is beautiful. Not to mention that I adore this scene and all that it suggested, and seeing Derek being moved to tears by her dance. I have to say I pretty much shipped Derek/Cam before, but this scene definitely cemented that.

I ADORE your Jack/Sawyer one. The colors are vivacious and GORGEOUS and I SO SO SO SO miss s1 (s1, eps 1&2, no less) of Sawyer. What a sexy BAMF. ♥

ETA: Yes, I had to edit this post to include a S1 Sawyer icon. I'm that anal about things. :)

Well thank you! You can snag if you like. Can't tell you how much I miss the early days too.

Re: ETA: I do the same thing sometimes.

YAY!
Dude those are pretty much the exact same reasons I chose the icons! lol
Especially #2. God BSG I miss you!

ICONS! Man, I love a good icon meme. And I'm bored. :)

I love #2 and #6. The coloring is just beautiful on 2 and as I've grown to appreciate the 8s this is just a lot of powerful stuff from one tiny picture. And Cameron. *sigh* Who doesn't love her?

[identity profile] crickets.livejournal.com 2009-09-20 01:49 am (UTC)(link)
Me too. *sadface*

I would pick icons for you, but you already did it, lol.

Hahaha that's fine.

I don't know who couldn't love Cameron. Maybe only Cameron herself... ? lol

icons!

That TSCC was just amazing and beautiful, but also so frustrating. Why did he cry? So confusing!

[identity profile] akzseinga.livejournal.com 2009-09-20 03:30 pm (UTC)(link)
I pretty much love all of your icons, these six are no exceptions.

Also, ICONS! Because why not? ;)
