Any questions you have about graphics, ask away and hopefully someone can help you out. Makers can also make a comment and people can ask them questions specifically - I&apos;ll set mine up, feel free to follow that example - and I&apos;ll link individual makers as well as question threads in the post when I&apos;m around to edit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Request Fest is still open until the 15th, so &lt;a href=&quot;https://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/189562.html?format=light&quot;&gt;get those requests and fills in&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/193446.html?thread=662950#cmt662950&quot;&gt;goodbyebird&apos;s question thread&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;***&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/193446.html?thread=663206#cmt663206&quot;&gt;How do you do text wrapping in circle around a character?&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=smallbatchicons&amp;ditemid=193446&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

You can also request quote icons, in which case you&apos;d supply quotes instead of images, but keep in mind that the maker only has 100x100 pixels to work with.&lt;br /&gt;  * Preferably high-quality or medium-quality images. Cap/stock resources &lt;a href=&quot;http://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/33887.html&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;  * No hotlinking, upload images to your own server/&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/file/new&quot;&gt;DW Gallery&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;a href=&quot;http://imgur.com/&quot;&gt;Imgur&lt;/a&gt; is also a good option. Link to the images instead of embedding them, to cut down on loading time.&lt;br /&gt;  * You can make requests without filling prompts.&lt;br /&gt;  * Every request must be themed&lt;small&gt;(actor, show, color, character, trope, season, emotion, go wild!)&lt;/small&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;  * Keep in mind that icons don&apos;t go behind a cut, so avoid spoilers and overly sexual/violent images.&lt;br /&gt;  * Requests should have a clear subject line, f.exa. &lt;i&gt;Our Flag Means Death, Leather Daddies&lt;/i&gt; | &lt;i&gt;Stock, joy&lt;/i&gt; | &lt;i&gt;Actress, Tessa Thompson&lt;/i&gt; | &lt;i&gt;Quotes, Dr. Seuss&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;  * All icons will be sharable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;big&gt;&lt;big&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#f29f05&quot;&gt;fills.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/big&gt;&lt;/big&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  * Each request fill goes in a new post to the community, with the theme in the subject line&lt;small&gt;(Yellowjackets, Missy)&lt;/small&gt;. The fill should not be placed as a comment reply, but a new post to the community. &lt;br /&gt;  * Comment to the request thread with the subject line &lt;i&gt;request filled&lt;/i&gt;. Include a link to your post. That way the requester knows where to find his or her icons.&lt;br /&gt;  * Several makers may fill the same request.&lt;br /&gt;  * Tag the posts with &lt;i&gt;!request fest&lt;/i&gt; &lt;s&gt;and &lt;i&gt;threeweeks&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/s&gt;, as well as regular tagging.&lt;br /&gt;  * Prompt fills can have a maximum of five icons.&lt;br /&gt;  * &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/manage/tracking/entry?journal=smallbatchicons&amp;amp;itemid=189562&quot;&gt;Tracking&lt;/a&gt; the post is a handy way to spot new requests (paid account only).&lt;br /&gt;  * It would be appreciated if you could follow the &lt;a href=&quot;http://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/2681.html&quot;&gt;posting template&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;  * Partial fills are more than welcome. We&apos;re all about the small batches ;)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Remember, comments are always appreciated, and credit the maker if you snag one of their icons.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This will be even more fun if you bring your friends, so banner codes for pimping below.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://imgur.com/oGVWf.png&quot;&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;form method=&quot;post&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;textarea name=&quot;comments&quot; cols=&quot;40&quot; rows=&quot;1&quot;&gt;

&lt;/textarea&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/form&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The request fest &lt;b&gt;starts today, and ends on May 15th&lt;/b&gt;. After that requests can still be filled, but not made.&lt;br /&gt;Cap/stock resources &lt;a href=&quot;http://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/33887.html&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. The sites are well indexed, finding what you want isn&apos;t all that hard. Promo pics or screengrabbing streaming video is also a most valid option :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If there&apos;s anything I&apos;ve missed or made unclear, let me know in the &lt;a href=&quot;https://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/189562.html?thread=628602#cmt628602&quot;&gt;COMMENTS/QUESTIONS&lt;/a&gt; thread below. Iconning is a fun fannish activity and we hope more of you will join us. Here&apos;s a recent &lt;a href=&quot;https://oh-crime.dreamwidth.org/38288.html&quot;&gt;Iconning 101&lt;/a&gt; post at &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://oh-crime.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png&apos; alt=&apos;[community profile] &apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://oh-crime.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;oh_crime&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; (links free graphics programs), a small intro on &lt;a href=&quot;https://comicbook-icons.dreamwidth.org/26557.html&quot;&gt;comic book iconning&lt;/a&gt; at &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://comicbook-icons.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png&apos; alt=&apos;[community profile] &apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://comicbook-icons.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;comicbook_icons&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, and the past &lt;a href=&quot;http://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/tag/%21tips+%26+tuts&quot;&gt;Tips &amp; Tuts&lt;/a&gt; posts here at the community.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#f29f05&quot;&gt;♥&lt;/font&gt; This event is specifically for &lt;big&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#f29f05&quot;&gt;#ThreeWeeksForDreamwidth&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/big&gt;, so keeping your creation exclusive to Dreamwidth for the three weeks is highly appreciated &lt;font color=&quot;#f29f05&quot;&gt;♥&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;big&gt;&lt;big&gt;&lt;big&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#f29f05&quot;&gt;closed.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/big&gt;&lt;/big&gt;&lt;/big&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=smallbatchicons&amp;ditemid=189562&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

  <title>✨ Oh look, it&apos;s 2022! ✨</title>
  <link>https://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/182723.html</link>
  <description>Posted by: &lt;span lj:user=&apos;goodbyebird&apos; style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos; class=&apos;ljuser&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://goodbyebird.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png&apos; alt=&apos;[personal profile] &apos; width=&apos;17&apos; height=&apos;17&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://goodbyebird.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;goodbyebird&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&apos;m not going to ask how 2021 went because. Well. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Instead I&apos;m going to suggest a monthly theme, split in two. Iconners&apos; choice. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#f29f05&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;A&lt;/b&gt; &lt;/font&gt;Faves of 2021&lt;br /&gt;Musical artists? Comics? Flavors of ice cream? Fluffy cat ears and fluffy dog tails? The book that got you through it all? A character that inspired and bolstered you?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#f29f05&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;B&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt; Things I Am Hopeful For&lt;br /&gt;Going to the cinema? A parade? The beach? Live show with your favorite artist, or maybe a play? Upcoming movie, game, or book? Hiking, or maybe a convention? The James Webb Space Telescope? &lt;s&gt;The fall of capitalism?&lt;/s&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So that&apos;s the theme, and of course feel free to make more than one post to cover All The Things. I know we&apos;re pretty minimalist here with our batches of five icons, but feel free to add a line or two about why this brought/brings you joy. Looking forwards to seeing your small batches of comfort and cheer ❤️&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also, &lt;font color=&quot;#f29f05&quot;&gt;some other fun icon shenanigans currently happening on dw:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://iconthat.dreamwidth.org/596706.html&quot;&gt;Set the Scene&lt;/a&gt; at &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://iconthat.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png&apos; alt=&apos;[community profile] &apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://iconthat.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;iconthat&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://ic-animated.dreamwidth.org/136418.html&quot;&gt;Winter&lt;/a&gt; at &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://ic-animated.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png&apos; alt=&apos;[community profile] &apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://ic-animated.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;ic_animated&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://fandom-itest.dreamwidth.org/12695.html&quot;&gt;The Wheel of Time&lt;/a&gt; at &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://fandom-itest.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png&apos; alt=&apos;[community profile] &apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://fandom-itest.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;fandom_itest&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://iconcolors.dreamwidth.org/179662.html&quot;&gt;Happy New Beginning&lt;/a&gt; at &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://iconcolors.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png&apos; alt=&apos;[community profile] &apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://iconcolors.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;iconcolors&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://fandom10in30.dreamwidth.org/&quot;&gt;a look back &amp; a look forward&lt;/a&gt; at &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://fandom10in30.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png&apos; alt=&apos;[community profile] &apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://fandom10in30.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;fandom10in30&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;big&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#f29f05&quot;&gt;CLOSED&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/big&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=smallbatchicons&amp;ditemid=182723&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

  <title>More Joy Day</title>
  <link>https://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/153321.html</link>
  <description>Posted by: &lt;span lj:user=&apos;goodbyebird&apos; style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos; class=&apos;ljuser&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://goodbyebird.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png&apos; alt=&apos;[personal profile] &apos; width=&apos;17&apos; height=&apos;17&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://goodbyebird.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;goodbyebird&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In 2008 &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://sdwolfpup.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png&apos; alt=&apos;[personal profile] &apos; width=&apos;17&apos; height=&apos;17&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://sdwolfpup.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;sdwolfpup&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; started More Joy Day to cheer up herself and her friends after a rough year. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Remember, even a small act is all that&apos;s needed. A call to a friend you haven&apos;t talked to in awhile, flowers for a neighbor, letting someone in front of you in line, leaving a happy comment on someone&apos;s fic or vid or podcast or graphic, sharing a pic!spam of joyful moments on your journal, giving someone a compliment, planting a tree, or taking a moment to smile at someone else as you walk by them. It doesn&apos;t have to be expensive or complex, but whatever it is, I love to hear about it, so I&apos;ll do &lt;a href=&quot;http://sdwolfpup.dreamwidth.org/644522.html&quot;&gt;my annual post here for you to tell us what act you performed&lt;/a&gt;, and then we can expand the impact of your joy by vicariously living through your telling! It&apos;s a win-win! :)&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you feel in an iconning mood, why not whip up a batch of icons from the fandoms that are bringing you the most joy recently. Are you head over heels for &lt;i&gt;Agent Carter&lt;/i&gt;? Biting at the nails over one or more series teasers that have come out recently? Reading a wonderful comic or found a new actor you&apos;ll watch in just about anything? Make a batch and spread that enthusiasm around!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope you&apos;ll all join in. See you tomorrow, smallbatchers &amp;hearts;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=smallbatchicons&amp;ditemid=153321&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

If you have some tips of your own, don&apos;t be shy about posting them! &lt;small&gt;(could be general tips, favorite textures/texture makers/a focus on one particular technique like blending or coloring - whatever you feel like)&lt;/small&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The thought had also been a general Q&amp;A post, where people can ask whatever questions they have regarding iconning, and makers could choose to create a personal thread within so you could ask them questions like how they achieve specific icons/looks, etc. This sound like a thing you&apos;d be interested in?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/poll/?id=15472&quot;&gt;View Poll: Q&amp;A thread?&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So far in the &lt;a href=&quot;http://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/138380.html&quot;&gt;Request Post&lt;/a&gt;, we still have several unfilled requests:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/138380.html?thread=427916#cmt427916&quot;&gt;Archer, s5&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/138380.html?thread=428940#cmt428940&quot;&gt;Agents of SHIELD, s1&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/138380.html?thread=431244#cmt431244&quot;&gt;Scott &amp; Bailey: Janet and Rachel&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/138380.html?thread=434060#cmt434060&quot;&gt;Orphan Black, various&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/138380.html?thread=434316#cmt434316&quot;&gt;Femslash: Orphan Black &amp; Xena style&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/138380.html?thread=438412#cmt438412&quot;&gt;Almighty Johnsons: Anders&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/138380.html?thread=438924#cmt438924&quot;&gt;Almighty Johnsons: Dawn/Ty&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/138380.html?thread=440460#cmt440460&quot;&gt;City, Copehnagen&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/138380.html?thread=446348#cmt446348&quot;&gt;The Americans, Elizabeth&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/138380.html?thread=448140#cmt448140&quot;&gt;Teen Wolf, Stiles Stilinski&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Though also several partially filled requests, plus people are always welcome to make second or third fills. The more the merrier :) We have until Sunday before the fest closes, so if you feel like telling people about it, here&apos;s a handy dandy banner to do just that. Hope to see you all around!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;form method=&quot;post&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;textarea name=&quot;comments&quot; rows=&quot;1&quot; cols=&quot;40&quot;&gt;

  <description>Posted by: &lt;span lj:user=&apos;goodbyebird&apos; style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos; class=&apos;ljuser&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://goodbyebird.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png&apos; alt=&apos;[personal profile] &apos; width=&apos;17&apos; height=&apos;17&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://goodbyebird.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;goodbyebird&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/138380.html?format=light&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://imgur.com/Fg5qo.png&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The &lt;a href=&quot;http://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/138380.html&quot;&gt;Request Fest&lt;/a&gt; is up and running, now&apos;s your chance to have some icons of that one scene you just love, or smaller fandoms/minor characters. Or just your favorite character, celebrity, comic, quotes, stock, what have you! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We all truly love icon making, and would love for as many people as possible to join us, not only in making requests but also icons. It&apos;s a super fun fannish activity, and one I wouldn&apos;t want to be without. I&apos;ve always loved it for being a low-stress way to engage with my favorite characters, so I get to zone out while simultaneously enjoying good faces, epic hairporn, and become aware of certain patterns and details I otherwise might have missed. How cool is that?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So to hopefully inspire new people to hop in on icon making here on dw, we&apos;re going to have a few &lt;font color=&quot;#f29f05&quot;&gt;Top Tips &amp; Tricks&lt;/font&gt; posts, plus a &lt;font color=&quot;#f29f05&quot;&gt;Q&amp;A&lt;/font&gt; when you can ask specific makers questions, or just general ones that anyone can reply to. I&apos;ll already be reaching out to some makers for their participation, but if you think this sounds interesting, please sound off in the comments. We&apos;d love to have you all onboard &amp;hearts;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the meantime, we did host the &lt;a href=&quot;http://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/tag/%21psd+exchange&quot;&gt;PSD/tut Exchange&lt;/a&gt; a little while back.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=smallbatchicons&amp;ditemid=138524&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

You can also request quote icons, in which case you&apos;d supply quotes instead of images, but keep in mind that the maker only has 100x100 pixels to work with.&lt;br /&gt;  * Preferably high-quality or medium-quality images. Cap/stock resources &lt;a href=&quot;http://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/33887.html&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;  * No hotlinking, upload images to your own server. &lt;a href=&quot;http://imgur.com/&quot;&gt;Imgur&lt;/a&gt; is a good option. Link to the images instead of embedding them, to cut down on loading time.&lt;br /&gt;  * You can make requests without filling prompts.&lt;br /&gt;  * Every request must be themed&lt;small&gt;(actor, show, color, character, trope, season, emotion, go wild!)&lt;/small&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;  * Keep in mind that icons don&apos;t go behind a cut, so avoid spoilers and overly sexual/violent images.&lt;br /&gt;  * Requests should have a clear subject line, f.exa. &lt;i&gt;Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Willow&lt;/i&gt; | &lt;i&gt;Stock, joy&lt;/i&gt; | &lt;i&gt;Actress, Julianna Margulies&lt;/i&gt; | &lt;i&gt;Quotes, Dr. Seuss&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;  * All icons will be sharable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;big&gt;&lt;big&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#f29f05&quot;&gt;fills.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/big&gt;&lt;/big&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  * Each request fill goes in a new post to the community, with the theme in the subject line&lt;small&gt;(Breaking Bad, Hank)&lt;/small&gt;. The fill should not be placed as a comment reply, but a new post to the community. &lt;br /&gt;  * Comment to the request thread with the subject line &lt;i&gt;request filled&lt;/i&gt;. Include a link to your post. That way the requester knows where to find his or her icons.&lt;br /&gt;  * Several makers may fill the same request.&lt;br /&gt;  * Tag the posts with &lt;i&gt;!request fest&lt;/i&gt;, as well as regular tagging.&lt;br /&gt;  * Prompt fills can have a maximum of five icons.&lt;br /&gt;  _ &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.dreamwidth.org/manage/tracking/entry?journal=smallbatchicons&amp;amp;itemid=138380&quot;&gt;Tracking&lt;/a&gt; the post is a handy way to spot new requests.&lt;br /&gt;  * It would be appreciated if you could follow the &lt;a href=&quot;http://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/2681.html&quot;&gt;posting template&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;  * Partial fills are more than welcome. We&apos;re all about the small batches ;)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Remember, comments are always appreciated, and credit the maker if you snag one of their icons.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This will be even more fun if you bring your friends, so banner codes for pimping below.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://imgur.com/oGVWf.png&quot;&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;form method=&quot;post&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;textarea name=&quot;comments&quot; cols=&quot;40&quot; rows=&quot;1&quot;&gt;

&lt;/textarea&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/form&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The request fest &lt;b&gt;starts today, and ends on Sunday June 8&lt;/b&gt;. After that requests can still be filled, but not made.&lt;br /&gt;Cap/stock resources &lt;a href=&quot;http://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/33887.html&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. The sites are well indexed, finding what you want isn&apos;t all that hard :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If there&apos;s anything I&apos;ve missed or made unclear, let me know in the COMMENTS/QUESTIONS thread below. During the fest we will also be running some Tips &amp; Tricks posts, as well as a Q&amp;A post for people who have any questions about icon making. It&apos;s a fun fannish activity and we hope more of you will join us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;big&gt;&lt;big&gt;&lt;big&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#f29f05&quot;&gt;closed.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/big&gt;&lt;/big&gt;&lt;/big&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=smallbatchicons&amp;ditemid=138380&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

  <title>ICON PRAISE</title>
  <link>https://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/122157.html</link>
  <description>Posted by: &lt;span lj:user=&apos;laisserais&apos; style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos; class=&apos;ljuser&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://laisserais.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png&apos; alt=&apos;[personal profile] &apos; width=&apos;17&apos; height=&apos;17&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://laisserais.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;laisserais&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://i.imgur.com/1hJqmgt.png&quot;&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;OK! We are gonna do one day of icon praise on October 8, 2013. What will happen on that day?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Make a post praising &lt;b&gt;an icon&lt;/b&gt; you have always seen around and loved --or&lt;br /&gt;2. Make a post praising &lt;b&gt;five icons&lt;/b&gt; you love by other makers --or&lt;br /&gt;3. Make a post praising an &lt;b&gt;iconmaker&lt;/b&gt; that you think is just the bee&apos;s knees --or&lt;br /&gt;4. Make a post praising &lt;b&gt;FIVE&lt;/b&gt; iconmakers --or&lt;br /&gt;5. All of the above!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Post early and often! If this goes well, we are looking to make it a regular thing, like with themes and whatnot. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;PIMP&lt;/b&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;textarea&gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;a href=&quot;http://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/122157.html&quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;img src=&quot;http://i.imgur.com/1hJqmgt.png&quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;/textarea&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Questions? ask a mod!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ETA: The praise isn&apos;t limited to just iconmakers @ DW. If you love an icon or a maker who lives on LJ, go for it! (And then tell them how much fun they&apos;re missing by not being on DW)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=smallbatchicons&amp;ditemid=122157&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

I&apos;m going to quote myself:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Seriously, the reason I called this a &apos;fest&apos; or &apos;exchange&apos; is to take the pressure off. &apos;Tut&apos; implies mastery or knowledge, and while none of us--or most of us can&apos;t--claim that, we all have SOME tricks up our sleeves. :D Even if it doesn&apos;t feel like it.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don&apos;t be afraid of showing your psds! We all have techniques that are valuable. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;/mod pep talk&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*\o/*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=smallbatchicons&amp;ditemid=118497&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

In preparation for that, I thought I&apos;d share some icon tutorials that were particularly cool and helpful. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I came across all of these by way of &lt;a href=&quot;http://icon-talk.livejournal.com/&quot;&gt;icon_talk&lt;/a&gt; at LJ. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*&lt;b&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://reflexive-verb.livejournal.com/50370.html&quot;&gt;A Guide to Text by absolutelybatty&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*&lt;a href=&quot;http://bittergraced.livejournal.com/13013.html&quot;&gt;A Guide to Using Textures by bittergraced&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*&lt;a href=&quot;http://accios.livejournal.com/51176.html&quot;&gt;How to Use Sharpening by naginis&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*&lt;a href=&quot;http://split-loyalties.livejournal.com/27477.html&quot;&gt;Use of Negative Space by novindalf&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*&lt;a href=&quot;http://bel-perdente.livejournal.com/45380.html&quot;&gt;Tips for Using Less Than Ideal Caps by wickdshy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And a heads up: After this fest is over, the next one will be an icon praise post, so start thinking about icons you really admire. We&apos;re gonna be spreading the love at the end of September!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/115350.html&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://i.imgur.com/d8zl8CT.png&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;We&apos;re hosting a &lt;big&gt;&lt;big&gt;&lt;big&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#f29f05&quot;&gt;PSD exchange&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/big&gt;&lt;/big&gt;&lt;/big&gt; over at &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png&apos; alt=&apos;[community profile] &apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;smallbatchicons&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;Come play with us!.&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=smallbatchicons&amp;ditemid=116815&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

Come play with us!.&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;/textarea&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a name=&quot;cutid1&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here&apos;s an example to get you in the mood:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://imgur.com/yoCur5f&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://i.imgur.com/yoCur5f.png&quot; title=&quot;step 1&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[I used PS 4 and 5 to make this banner.]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Step 1: The most important part of any icon: Crop choice! In this case, I knew I wanted to get the mirror in the background, a good amount of leg, and their expressions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://imgur.com/q8qn3KA&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://i.imgur.com/q8qn3KA.png&quot; title=&quot;step 2&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Step 2: Do a curves layer, boost saturation of all colors, and do a selective color layer to bring out the yellow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://imgur.com/kJitOMu&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://i.imgur.com/kJitOMu.png&quot; title=&quot;step 3&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Step 3: That left some weird artifacts in the blacks, so now I copy all layers and merge as a new layer (ctrl + alt+ shift + E). Then I do a gaussian blur filter of 1.5 pixels on this layer, and set it to soft light, with 64% opacity. This smooths out the rough edges while saturating the blacks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://imgur.com/7YlwmtI&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://i.imgur.com/7YlwmtI.png&quot; title=&quot;step 4&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Step 4: But now it&apos;s blurry kind of. I do another copy all-merge layer, and this one I do an unsharp mask on, 110%, normal layer at 100% opacity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://imgur.com/xrmCWDY&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://i.imgur.com/xrmCWDY.png&quot; title=&quot;step 5&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Step 5: There&apos;s still not enough depth to the contrasts, and I want to capture the lighting in the mirror behind them, so I do a copy-all merge layer (I don&apos;t usually do so many of these, I don&apos;t know why they show up so much in this) and do a High Pass filter. I set it to Hard Light, opacity 14%. This gives it just a little more clarity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://imgur.com/qaN5RYu&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://i.imgur.com/qaN5RYu.png&quot; title=&quot;step 6&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Step 6: Color fill a rectangle in a new layer. I did a dark navy blue, then set it to exclusion 100%. I knew I wanted to have a different background for the text, so it would pop. I spent quite a bit of time deciding how wide this rectangle would be, and where it would be placed. I settled on lining it up with the bench they are sitting on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://imgur.com/xkUmFYl&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://i.imgur.com/xkUmFYl.png&quot; title=&quot;step 7&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Step 7: exclusion is a neat effect, but the box doesn&apos;t stand out. So I made a clipping mask--meaning that the next adjustment only affects the rectangle--and added a gradient map. I made the gradient a rainbow and set it to exclusion 75%. As you can see, it made the rectangle more vivid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://imgur.com/bgbgwUs&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://i.imgur.com/bgbgwUs.png&quot; title=&quot;step 8&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Step 8: start adding text. I knew I wanted this goofy font because it reminds me of entertainers, like the circus and such. Which I felt went with the image nicely. But all by itself, it didn&apos;t stand out enough against the background. I tried a bunch of different colors, and decided to pick up the dark brown in their outfits.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then I added effects to the layer: I added an inner shadow, outer glow (and changed the glow to turquoise), an inner glow (stayed yellow to brighten it up) and a 1 pixel stroke outline, to sort of tidy it up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://imgur.com/DlHEgwu&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://i.imgur.com/DlHEgwu.png&quot; title=&quot;step 9&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Step 9: more text. I fiddled a lot, as you can see, with the comm name. I&apos;m a sucker for rainbows, but ultimately decided it made the banner too busy. I ended up changing it in the final version. Also, I was using two different versions of PS, so I started out with Helvetica, but then had to change it to Myriad Pro because the other PS doesn&apos;t have Helvetica for some reason. :(&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I went through and kerned the letters, centering them over the eyes and faces of the ladies so no weird parts popped out. Then I rasterized all the text and merged all visible layers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://imgur.com/d8zl8CT&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://i.imgur.com/d8zl8CT.png&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Final product: I took that image and stuck in on a larger square and slapped on the challenge details below. Ta da!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you have any questions about this exchange, please feel free to comment or PM either myself or &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://goodbyebird.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png&apos; alt=&apos;[personal profile] &apos; width=&apos;17&apos; height=&apos;17&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://goodbyebird.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;goodbyebird&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Start saving those psds!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=smallbatchicons&amp;ditemid=115350&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

I have been bugging &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://goodbyebird.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png&apos; alt=&apos;[personal profile] &apos; width=&apos;17&apos; height=&apos;17&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://goodbyebird.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;goodbyebird&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; to let me run some challenges and things in this comm and she is being gracious and letting me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since I am too cheap to have a paid account, there is no poll, BUT! I am looking for feedback from y&apos;all. What kind of icon battles/challenges would be interesting to you? Some ideas I&apos;ve had so far:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;*Show us your psds&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;--This one is totally going to happen, and I&apos;m announcing the details probably tomorrow. It will be a free-for-all where you can post as many psds as you&apos;d like, either a link to your own journal/other journal or in the comm. And everyone can read and comment and ask questions about your techniques.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;*Technical Challenge&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;--You sign up and get tagged to make one icon using a particular technique. Sort of like a round robin, you watch the comm to see when you&apos;ve been tagged, and then have 24 hours to do your icon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;*Team Battle&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;--You sign up and work with another artist, with each one taking a turn at making a layer, and then you post your completed icon (or icon set) on your assigned day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;*Ask the Maker Spotlight&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;--I&apos;d like to do something where we have guest icon makers come and discuss their process.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;--&amp;gt; Question:&lt;/strong&gt; Most of us use some version of Photoshop, I think. Who uses something else? GIMP? Other? A program that cannot produce a layered object? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please let me know in comments if you are interested in these sorts of challenges, and/or if there are other ideas you&apos;d like to see. This is YOUR community! We are one of the most-frequented icon communities on dreamwidth, and I want to hear from you! Everyone gets a vote, even if you&apos;re just watching this comm; even if you don&apos;t make icons.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=smallbatchicons&amp;ditemid=115154&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

  <title>Smallbatchicons Request Fest 2.0</title>
  <link>https://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/86414.html</link>
  <description>Posted by: &lt;span lj:user=&apos;goodbyebird&apos; style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos; class=&apos;ljuser&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://goodbyebird.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png&apos; alt=&apos;[personal profile] &apos; width=&apos;17&apos; height=&apos;17&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://goodbyebird.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;goodbyebird&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a name=&quot;cutid1&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;This is a multi-fandom/stock request fest, and anyone can join in :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;big&gt;&lt;big&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#f29f05&quot;&gt;requests.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/big&gt;&lt;/big&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  * Every person can make up to five requests, with up to five images per request&lt;small&gt;(one request per comment to keep things tidy)&lt;/small&gt;. You can also request quote icons, in which case you&apos;d supply quotes instead of images, but keep in mind that the maker only has 100x100 pixels to work with.&lt;br /&gt;  * Preferably high-quality or medium-quality images. Cap/stock resources &lt;a href=&quot;http://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/33887.html&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;  * No hotlinking, upload images to your own server. Tinypic seems a bit shaky for some users, but &lt;a href=&quot;http://imgur.com/&quot;&gt;imgur&lt;/a&gt; is a good option. Link to the images instead of embedding them, to cut down on loading time.&lt;br /&gt;  * You can make requests without filling prompts.&lt;br /&gt;  * Every request must be themed&lt;small&gt;(actor, show, color, character, season, emotion, go wild!)&lt;/small&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;  * Keep in mind that icons don&apos;t go behind a cut, so avoid spoilers and overly sexual/violent images.&lt;br /&gt;  * Requests should have a clear subject line, f.exa. &lt;i&gt;Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Willow&lt;/i&gt; | &lt;i&gt;Stock, joy&lt;/i&gt; | &lt;i&gt;Actress, Julianna Margulies&lt;/i&gt; | &lt;i&gt;Quotes, Dr. Seuss&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;  * All icons will be sharable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;big&gt;&lt;big&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#f29f05&quot;&gt;fills.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/big&gt;&lt;/big&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  * Each request fill goes in a new post to the community, with the theme in the subject line&lt;small&gt;(Breaking Bad, Hank)&lt;/small&gt;. The fill should not be placed as a comment reply, but a new post to the community. &lt;br /&gt;  * Comment to the request thread with the subject line &lt;i&gt;request filled&lt;/i&gt;. Include a link to your post. That way the requester knows where to find the post.&lt;br /&gt;  * Several makers may fill the same request.&lt;br /&gt;  * Tag the posts with &lt;i&gt;!request fest&lt;/i&gt;, as well as regular tagging.&lt;br /&gt;  * Prompt fills can have a maximum of five icons.&lt;br /&gt;  * Partial fills are more than welcome. We&apos;re all about the small batches ;)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Remember, comments make the community go round, and credit the maker if you snag one of their icons.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This will be even more fun if you bring your friends, so banner codes for pimping below.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://imgur.com/oGVWf.png&quot;&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;form method=&quot;post&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;textarea name=&quot;comments&quot; cols=&quot;40&quot; rows=&quot;1&quot;&gt;

Seems Three Weeks For Dreamwidth has arrived(April 25 - May 16, I believe), and I completely forgot about it! Just wondering if you&apos;d all be up for a new round of the &lt;a href=&quot;http://smallbatchicons.dreamwidth.org/tag/%21request+fest&quot;&gt;Request Fest&lt;/a&gt; to celebrate the occasion. (TWfD means you make content that is Dreamwidth exclusive for three weeks after it&apos;s been posted)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/poll/?id=10304&quot;&gt;View Poll: Request Fest&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, as always, your regular small icon batches are more than welcome during the three weeks &amp;hearts;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=smallbatchicons&amp;ditemid=86010&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

Remember, the batch doesn&apos;t have to consist of five icons, it can be less :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you do want to participate here on the comm, please remember that they&apos;ll have to be made for this festival, dw-exclusive(for three weeks &lt;u&gt;after&lt;/u&gt; the posting date), and use the &apos;threeweeks&apos; tag.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, regular batches are still more than welcome during the three weeks!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://i.imgur.com/3bIM9.png&quot;&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=smallbatchicons&amp;ditemid=60465&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>
