Crediting policy: I'd enjoy knowing which one(s) you take; and I'd appreciate credit. So, if you forget who made these, fine; if you remember, please credit me. Oh, and no taking the "no icon" Pomeranian! You want a Pomeranian icon, you tell me and I'll make one for you; or make one yourself.

Random comments by me go here.
2: I had to use the 'skew' tool to get it vaguely-rotated; I HATE MSPaint! And it's a stupid face Sanzo's making.
49: Okay, I am NEVER "fading" an icon out at the edges again, unless it's really simple. That took ages.
51: For some reason, this is the icon everyone seems to like the most.
57: It's supposed to be the Hulk's line, but I'm not sure if I got it right.
The 'no icon' icon: Took me like five minutes to make this one. I needed an icon for it, and I like Pomeranians.
60: Today I found out that the more blank space I have to fill, the harder it is.
12: I invented like eight million different screens to get the effect I wanted; then finally discovered a new way of using the first one.
61: This was so easy I was almost scared.
63: Dedicated to our beloved ORLY owl.
17: First icon made on my laptop!
64: So easy.... but I couldn't resist that face!
65-69: Icons entitled "backlash". Don't really know why, but it kinda fits.
10: Got the idea for this one while listening to a Metallica song on the radio.
77: Lyrics from "Just Like You" by Three Days' Grace.
9: First Saiyuki icon made with Paint dot Net. Love that program.

Who's in what icon, by alphabetical order.
Chin Isou: 17
Gojyo: 31, 49, 61, 68, 80 (sort of)
Goku: 12, 25, 56, 59, 64, 66, 9
Hakkai: 46, 55, 57, 58, 60, 65, 72
Hakuryu: 10, 23, 53, 75
Kamisama: 18
Kanan: 41
Konzen: 73, 9
Kougaiji: 38, 52, 69, 77
Lirin: 54
Nii Jyeni (evil b**tard!): 71
Sanzo: 2, 33, 51, 63, 67, 70, 78, 79 (sort of)
Shuei: 22

I also feel like providing my bases; but, however, posting the images here is a heckload of time, and I don't feel like doing that. So, I'll give the link to my photobucket album where you can find them. There aren't all the bases on there, because something went wrong with the original file, but a good bunch, and not just on Saiyuki.

How about a Gojyo/Sanzo?

I'm not big into yaoi (look deeper into my journal and you'll find evidence of it in my only Saiyuki fanfic), but I could try and get them both in the same icon.

...but I DO have the "ass monk" and "ass kappa" icons.... (this is the ass monk, the other isn't polished yet)

It doesn't have to be yaoi.....I was thinking something along the lines of their rivalry, funny texts, etc...but it's really up to you!!

I can't make icons at all! LOL

(Sorry I just assumed yaoi; one, you tend to see things you hate, and two, that's often what people mean.)

Ah, making icons is easy. Try it some time.

But, Sanzo and Gojyo.... Me, I'm big into Hakkai. He's my love. I haven't tried icons with two or more people... but I can do this.

What about Hakuryu? Everyone LIKES him, but do you LOVE him?

...I need to make some HakHak icons. That's with both of them.

Since it's 1.44 in the morning and I really should be getting to bed, I'm starting to work on it now.

Question: You can't make icons, but can you make AMVs? Because if you can, I've a bunch of fleshed-out requests. And if you can't, I'll save it until either a) I find someone who can and will or b) we get the right software. Or c) when Hell freezes over, which is more probable than b).

I can't do either......I'm really new to all this and have no idea about this stuff yet....I didn't even know how to work LJ or change the LJ layout until recently.

Yeah, well, LJ is completely different.

Hey, I'm making a HakHak icon right now, especially for you. Just you wait a bit.

OMG! YAY! *claps hands happily*

I wish I could do something for you too, but I've only written Full Metal Alchemist fanfics and I wouldn't even say that they are that good LOL.

I haven't tried writing Gensomaden Saiyuki fanfics yet :)

FMA? I like FMA.

And the icon I've done isn't that great, so I'm saving it into my other photobucket account, but I hope it'll be okay for now. You can fix up the heart yourself if you'd like, just save it into Paint or something. When my brain is actually awake.... then I'll make it into a proper icon.

Thanks. Any you liked in particular? And was it because of the subject, text, or art style? Sorry, I'm just trying to figure out WHAT I do right when I get something right.
