Round 1: Nostalgia

[tinny]

I'm very happy to see so many entries here in our first round already! <3 Thank you all!

Here's my own nostalgic entry! First, two icons of Joe Flanigan and David Hewlett, made from photographs (not mine) that were taken at Fedcon 2010, my one and only con experience. The others are of Dawson's Creek (Pacey and Joey) and Buffy (Buffy and Spike).

It's very sweet that everyone who entered icons also listed the urls. So I guess I'll do it, too. <3

Do you want me to do a roundup post? I haven't thought that far ahead yet. I have now written a script to facilitate creating roundup posts, so I guess we're doing those. :)

Icon 5 looks super cool! And I love that pink-ish (?) coloring for the skin in icon 1 and 2, looks so nice and soft (´▽`ʃ♡ƪ)

Thank you! I'm happy you like the flat coloring! <3 I always think it makes icons look more retro. It definitely fit this challenge. :D

There's a tutorial on how to do it, I've been asked about this technique before. :) Both of these icons use the second method mentioned in this post:
