  • Your making a signature/avatar combo so if your signature is just icons on its own you'll need to show us the icons and the layout of it and then show the avatar separately in that post.

  • Well its a signature isn't it, so if i take yours as an example your layout is three icons centred with text running along the bottom also centred.
    What i'm saying is you can't just say this is what i'm using for my signature, you actually have to make the signature.

    "There is a privacy about it which no other season gives you.... In spring, summer and fall people sort of have an open season on
    each other; only in the winter, in the country, can you have longer, quiet stretches when you can savor belonging to yourself.
    "

    -------------------------------------------

    Basically the theme consists of polar bear cubs (obviously XD). The quote on the bottom is representing winter in a sense that's what the polar bear cubs first come out to when the see the world for the first time. The cubs are born while the mother is hibernating, and they come out to see a thick blanket of snow covering their world. That's why I picked the quote. And that's about it XD

    So, I just pretty much did a icon theme with CSS with the icons being of the northern lights. Something different from animals and such. Words describing the pictures, the first line simply stating what the picture is; second just being imaginative, and third describing the picture. xD; Different fonts used, and a gradient used on 'Northern Lights' since the pictures themselves is a gradient. /yeah i'm not good at explaining..

    also in the case; that it doesn't look right on your computer because of the CSS, I took a screenshot of what it looks like on mine.

    LOVE, THE GIFT OF LIFE


    ---

    Okay! So basically my theme is an icon theme. With swans. because Swans are awesome. The theme is also kind of based around 'love', because Swans are known as the birds of love (or whatever). The text brings the theme of both nature and love together, saying that nature gave us life as a gift, and with life, we're given love. It also shows that within nature there is love, and it's not just with us humans. :)

    ... I hope I explained it right. xD;

  • Is it just me or can nobody else see the icons in AntiZero's theme?
    Try uploading them to imgur.com or tinypic.com instead of using PC albums ;D

    Also, just in case that was a question can't tell D: it doesn't have to be icons ^-^ its just what seems popular right now x]

    Beauty can be found in the simplest of places

    ----
    So this is another icon theme. It has pictures of different aspects of nature, including a tiger, flower, and bird. The meaning is supposed to be "Nature is beautiful" and emphasizing the beauty of nature by showing the different things in nature.

    Again, at least I tried.

    What question? I don't see one. xD

    Anyways, I chose icons because they're easier I'm better at them than tags. 8D;

  • Ok then its now the 17th which means that the first theme is now OVER!
    say goodbye to nature kids because we've got a new theme coming.

    And the new theme is.....









    COLOUR!



    And just a quick note, i don't know if this is what came across in the rules but things like pokemon sprites, dreamworld art, manga renders and such do not come under the must be made by you rule. You can use those if you wish.
    Also if certain textures are to be used as backgrounds that is also allowed.

    So don't be afraid to let them show
    Your true colours, true colours
    Are beautiful like a rainbow
    This time I've used a Polaroid frame for my icons since I actually wanted to try out something different. Basically, my theme represents beauty and vivid colors of the balloons that can brighten up any occasion with a smile on every face and I am pretty sure everybody loves to be surrounded by beautiful and colourful ballons. :)
