Why am I babbling about this? That's kind of how I feel about icons. Icon makers get bored with things and are out to have something new surprise them. And, well, sometimes what they come up with might be *interesting* and *different* but it's a lousy icon. I think that's why the icons at elite comms and the like tend to all look the same. All the icon makers in the group pat themselves on the back but you don't see people *using* those terribly clever icons. You know what I mean?

Yes, but I've even noticed the same type of icon in this project tend to get the most votes. Similar colouring, similar cropping, I don't know what it is. This is not a hard and fast thing, more of a feeling I get. I'll peruse the icons and think "I'll bet this one will be one of the winners" even if I don't vote for it myself. Heh.

Well, it starts with "Ack" but then it goes on and makes itself cute with the "les" -- reminds me of chuckles. :)

It raises me 'ackles, it does.

Boo, SBG, boo.

I think it was the people that insist on referencing his freckles as "Frackles" that really tipped me over the edge. LOL.
