14th November 2011 — Finally thought I'd make some of my own codes for this fanlisting, they've had the same ones since Christina had the fanlisting. :P I also added a contact form on the website page. :)
About Icons
Icons (sometimes known as avatars) are small, square shaped graphics, usually 100 pixels in width and height. They can feature almost any subject — from musicians to food to actors and animals and even just text. Icons, more often than not, start as a cropped section of a photograph.
Icons are usually made with a graphics program like Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro. Icons can have effects added to them such as textures, coloured overlays, brushes and text. Some icons are simple while others can be more intricate and detailed. They can even be animated!
Icons are usually used on forums, social networking websites and instant messaging services as a means of identification. People are able to recognise someone with a visual aid when they use an icon to represent themselves.
What is a fanlisting?
What is a fanlisting? A fanlisting is a place for all fans of a particular character, show, movie, actor, singer, etc. to come together and build the biggest listing of people from all around the world who are fans of that subject.
This fanlisting is a part of Eyethief — The Glass Aperture Collective and Georgie.nu. It is run by Georgina and was approved in 2007. Hannah adopted it to me in August 2010.
