Writer's Block: My Userpics

[Error: unknown template qotd]



I'm fairly certain that this is my first default icon, back when Basic accounts existed and we only had three (yes, three) slots for icons. It's a picture of me as a toddler, cuddling with the pitbull boy of the family. I made this icon during a rather low point in my life, and added the text "I am loved." as a reminder that yes, it's true. People do love this crazy, lazy, weirdo pervert.



This is my current default because it's a simple image. I kind of have this belief that defaults should either be "simple and clean" or "very distinctive", and 'A Spark in the Dark' is really just a white burst on a black background. I chose it because I identify with the element of fire, and it also looks like a sparkler...and I was born close to the Fourth of July.



And THIS is my 'every so often I switch back to this one' quasi-default icon. She's my favorite character from the "Soul Edge/Soul Calibur" video game franchise -- Seung Mina. "Heart and Soul" is a reference to her nickname in 'Soul Edge' -- "Heart and Soul Girl". She's always been sort of the tomboy/rebel/independent woman of the game series, and I really like that about her.

Writer's Block: How I got on LJ

[Error: unknown template qotd]

I started out on EasyJournal, but had several friends in the "Mighty Ducks" movie fandom who were on LJ. Several times, they couldn't see my entries. Not sure why. It was either [livejournal.com profile] purpleocharisma or [livejournal.com profile] thestalkycop who gave me a code to start my LJ. Yeah...I've had this thing for a while...
