[livejournal] anniversary and icons

[escritoireazul]

Aww, I missed my anniversary. Three years ago yesterday I started this journal for all my fandom activity. Though sometimes I feel a little split, I'm really glad I did it, because I've had a ton of fun here, and you guys are extremely awesome.

Since then I've posted 692 posts and 2387 comments.

Recently, Nikita bought me more paid time and more icons, and as I've been looking at which ones I want to upload, I've spent a lot of time looking through my various icon folders. It made me wonder how you organize your icons. I do them by fandom, mostly, though there are specific actors who get their own folders (Michelle Rodriguez, Eliza Dushku, and Vin Diesel) which are then broken down by fandom.

I really like icons.

I love icons! To the point where it's probably bordering on addiction. : )

I must admit, at this time all of my icons are of the Supernatural / Jared / Jensen variety. I have them all in one folder. And then I have sub-folders set up for the specific seasons, a few specific episodes I went icon crazy for, the actors, etc. Plus, one for "rare" icons, meaning you rarely see anyone making icons of those pics.

I don't make my own graphics, so I always save icons under the username of the artist, because I'm completely ocd when it comes to giving credit when I use them.

And no matter how much icon space I have in my journal, it never seems like enough. Isn't that the way it goes? ♥

Oh, yeah. I think unlimited icon space wouldn't be enough, especially because it would then become so hard to choose which icon to use when.

Icons are just so lovely and fun to use.
