Iconoclasm

[jackofallgeeks]

OK, I have a pseudo-dillema. A long while ago, when I created this Journal, I had three varied Icons -- Hiei, Gendo, and Vash. I switched, momentarily, to a few MtG pictures. Not long after, I suppose, I changed over to a Vash-theme, as we can all tell. I, personally, think Vash fits my personality rather well, and a number of people seem to have the same opinion (*waves* Hi Becky and Mel!).

Recently, though, Ms. Chuu herself made me an awesome Icon, and I thought about changing back to a non-theme again. I spent alot of time looking for pics last night, and Leslie's making me a new Innocent Icon (which I expect I will like muchly). I even got permission to use one of Leslie's pieces for my 'shocked' Icon, which I've wanted for a while.

However, I think I really lose something of my continuity if I kill the theme. Having Vash across the board lends personality, I think, to my Journal, and that personaility is lost if one Icon is Jet Black, another is Gendo, and yet another is Neo-and-Leslie (though, admittedly, I giggle whenever I see that pic...).

So, I ask your opinions (and feel free to comment too):

Don't get me wrong. I love your Vash-edness. ^___^ But varieties generally a good thing. =)

variety is good, though I mean when I first got my paid account I had a whole deedlit theme going from my layout to all of my icons. I liked it but after a while I just wanted the randomness factor. My tastes are too varied to stick with one thing *^^* however the theme is kinda clever. Maybe you should keep it awhile longer until you truly feel the need for randomness.

i learned to fly so you, you ran to find the gun to shoot me down before i got too high...

i only picked the other answer because, on the whole, i find that variety is a good thing to have. i know what it's like to be attached, though - when i first started the whole livejournal thing my WHOLE set of icons were of Fuu [from Magic Knight Rayearth ... she's my Anime Idol(tm) ..^___^ ]. when i finally changed them around, it was a little sad.

and then i had all those gillian ones & one of my friends, who happens to be getting married, said her fiance thought that was actually ME in those pictures. mmmkay. enough gillian. ::blushing:: ... anyway.

i do think vash = you, though. or at least, i think it's an awesome online anime projection of yourself. silly & serious, contemplative & goofy. yup. it's you, darling. it's you. ::hugs the andrewvash plushie::

oh yeah. that subject you asked me about, what it was from? fisher's song "paradise" ... and you might wanna try and get "miseryland" if you don't have it already & "strangers" ... i forget now which songs you said you had, so. ^__^;

oh! and try some rosie thomas. in especially the song "wedding day" ... && the cowboy junkies song "river waltz" <-- which i want to be my 'first danceas a married couple' wedding song. mmmhmm. miiiiine. ::snuggles it::

xo.

Well damn. I was the only one to pick Vash. Well fine, all of you! Abandon the adorable broom-headed gunman I so love! I'll just keep him all to myself!


..^__^;; Right. Um..yeah, I wanted to say go with whatever you want, Andrew, but I also thought I should pick an answer in the poll and personally, I just really like your Vash icons (could be biased, though..^__~). But in the end, since you are the one who uses them and sees them the most often, go with what you prefer, ne?
