Comment on this post. I will choose seven userpics from your profile and you will explain what they mean and why you are using them. Post this along with your answers in your own journal so others can play along.
Here are mine!
Wash! This is from one of the opening scenes in the pilot, when he's playing with his dinosaurs (YouTube link!) and waiting for them to finish a job. Wash is my favorite character, and this is one of many icons I use when I'm either feeling dorky or am in a Firefly mood. I think it was my first Firefly icon, back when I only had six icons. XD;
George from Dead Like Me - I really liked this episode, where she had to reap a boy who could actually sense gravelings; it was a really bittersweet episode, and I liked this shot of her against the stained glass window. The text is a paraphrased quote she says in the episode: "We all create in our heads who we are and who we want others to be." I guess it kind of sounded cool, and also very true. It's one of my more rarely-used icons for when I'm feeling pensive, I guess? I actually worked really hard to photoshop this one (because I lose at photoshopping) to try to make the text somewhat readable.
XD This was a picture that came up once on a one-a-day space photo calendar I had, probably back in high school. It just cracked me up, and I never forgot it, so one day I did a websearch and found it and decided to make it an icon. Another one for dorky moods, because astronauts are just big dorks at heart (sometimes).
Wilbur Robinson, from Meet the Robinsons (possibly one of the best movies ever known to man). XD I love Wilbur, and he's just so... suave in that picture. XD This is my "You are awesome" icon. :D;
This one is from a fanart I found of (I think!) manga-style Takumi and Akira from Mai-HiME, where he's the Dark Prince or whatever his title is and she's his ninja~ They were my Mai-HiME OTP, I love them soooo much~ And they're so cute in this picture. It's kind of a sweet icon for when going ":D" is not quite right.
Screenshot of Ezri Dax from the seventh-season DS9 episode "Badda-Bing, Badda-Bang." It was this totally awesome episode where they had to get Vic Fontaine's casino back under his management in order to keep his program from ending (or something alone those lines). In any case, it was basically the crew of DS9 pulling an old-fashioned bank heist, which was absolutely fantastic. Ezri was playing the part of a waitress, so this is her in her sixties Vegas waitress garb, and I think she's adorable~ It's an icon I like to use when I'm feeling dorky, happy, or something along those lines. :D;; [/lame]
Screenshot of Tom Paris from the Voyager season three episode "The Q and the Grey." There's a civil war going on in the Q continuum, and the regular Q and a female Q end up on Voyager. The female Q is trying to get Voyager into the continuum, and she comes out onto the bridge and goes, "Hey you, Helm Boy." The look on his face was too priceless not to inconify. XD I guess I use this one when I'm feeling Star Trek dorky, or just plain silly. :D;
Whew, okay, I'm bad at explaining things so that was lame. Apologies. ^^;
