I've been playing around at making icons, which has been both interesting and enjoyable. Still got a few to do, so won't be posting just yet. And yes, there are some Gan ones, lol!! Though also other characters, and the Liberator, which is still the best looking sci-fi ship as far as I'm concerned. I've found that I've had to use black/white for some as the colours were bad and I struggled to fix that, and the screencaps vary in quality too (well, it is an old TV show after all).
Anyway, does anyone know if posting icons to AO3 is the done thing or not? I've noticed artwork over there, but not sure if icons are considered appropriate content for the site. I need to get an AO3 account anyway, so that I can leave feedback and kudos on fics. Though I've not actually hit up AO3 for fics much yet, but it's the next source I'll be heading to once I've worked my way through fics I've found/am still finding on DW via the various comms. So much fic, unfortunately so little time to read it. RL, eh? Not always on the side of fannish interests!

Thanks for the link, that looks like a great resource for future iconning! Much better than a Google Images search! :D
