The Icons and How to Swing Them
Dec. 7th, 2004 11:48 amWorking on the latest chapter, I came into the sudden realization that I had to have Angel icons. Mmm, Angel. Specifically, Angel and Spike icons. Because these guys are the roadshow which are sorta-kinda taking over my Spuffy fic, just for the moment, and you so gotta run with it when the muse sends you there, yo? Anyway, my icon hunt reminded me of
amavel_bel's marvelous AtS Season 5 icons. Seriouly, these are the bestest fun. I'm sure others have pimped them, but that's hardly a reason not to do it again.
I'm having an odd little crisis over the whole icon thing, actually. To be perfectly honest, I'm not really all that sure how LJ icons work - looks like, from some older entries I've gone back to view, that LJ won't display an icon anymore if it's not in your current folder, which would mean then that the bulk of my fun icons will just show up as blanks when my paid time runs out, sob. Is the only way around this just to change your "default" icon all the time to suit one's mood? I guess I could live with that, although I'm awfully fond of my custom Cordelia that
zerographic made me... or if you choose "no default," does the LJ just pick icons at random? That would be an okay option, except for the not-appropriate for all ages ones. What to do?
