Activity #97 - Love Is In The Air

[tinny]

I've watched a lot of romances lately, and I thought, why not turn this into a theme this month?

Icon things that you associate with love or romance! Any interpretation is fine, this is a free inspirational challenge.

Oh this looks like fun. I may have to join. LOVE inspo posts, I do them once in a while for my 20in20's.

Do we signup and do we put our icons here in a comment? New to joining so want to make sure I understand correctly.

[tinny]

Thanks for asking!

We're a very low-stress comm. You just post your icons as a comment to this post, no sign-ups, no voting. The deadline is usually soft, too, a day or two too late doesn't worry me.

Of course commenting on other people's icons (either here or on the results post that I will make after the deadline has passed) is appreciated.

[chocolatefrogs]

Awesome, thank you. Wanted to be completely sure I read that right, with my headcold and daily headaches I may misread or miss something. Is it all couples? Like straight, gay, lebian, canon, non-canon?

Of course. Even when my old post never got comments, I still strived o try and post on others when I was able to. :)

Great set! I love the textures and croppings you used. My personal favorites are 1, 2, and 4! ♥

[chocolatefrogs]

Thank you. ♥ That second texture just screamed my favorite non-canon couple that I had to use it.

[tinny]

Is it all couples? Like straight, gay, lebian, canon, non-canon?

Yes of course, all couples are okay. It doesn't even have to be couples at all. In our inspirational challenges, anything you associate with the theme - here romance or love - is fine. You could just make icons of roses or of sunsets, if you wanted. :D

I saw you already posted. That's fine!

[tinny]

Gorgeous! I love how you used the provided textures! They're all really beautiful - and Joey and Pacey, Spock and Kirk, awwwwwww. <3

[chocolatefrogs]

Awesome, thank you. When I started making one I completely finished all real fast and posted, forgot I had asked lol.

[chocolatefrogs]

Thank you. I was never into Dawson's Creek a whole lot, but figured it be fun to icon them. And that texture you had just screamed Kirk/Spock to me.

Thank you, the text were text textures I used, otherwise I suck at text lol.

[breyzyyin]

Thank you so much! ♥

[tinny]

Thank you! I find close crops really easy, I should make them more.

[tinny]

Thank you so much! <3

[tinny]

Oh I missed to comment on this. /o\

I really love the coloring here. And the combination of your colored shadows with the background textures looks really cool! My fave is 4, but really they're all great.

[breyzyyin]

Thank you so much! ♥
