Green: It's the new black. (DCU icons, part II)

[buggery]

So DC-comics-fandom zeitgeist seems to be headed in greenish directions. The assorted Green Lanterns past and present; the Green Arrow family, with its long associations with the GL and Flash families (not to mention plenty of incestuous-ish subtext); the Martian Manhunk Manhunter; Gar Logan is even back with the latest incarnation of the Titans.

And that's not remotely all.

I'd been feeling the need to have icons for a bunch of these folks, and these relationships. Several other people around LJ were good enough to share icons of various DCU characters in green, but I needed more. In the process of finding images I liked for my own use, I wound up with... rather more than I needed, or indeed could possibly use on my own.

So now it's my turn to share. These are all .gif format, which is both smaller than a .jpg and animation-ready. If you're planning to make an animated icon, you may share up to five bases (but not claim for exclusive use more than two). Please indicate in comments whether you want dibs on your choice(s) or are willing to share -- if you don't specify otherwise, it will be marked as shareable.

Shared icons marked in green, claimed icons in red.

Yes, Jade's code name is Cheshire, and Jenny-Lynn's is Jade. Thanks for not confusing us, DC.

part I with Green Lanterns & Martian Manhunter


The sources for most of these are right in the filenames; "Gar-TT11.gif" is a picture of Gar (Logan) taken from Teen Titans #11, and "ConnorOllie-GASF1.gif" is Connor and Oliver from Green Arrow Secret Files #1.

If you know the source of the asterisked* icon's base image, please comment below, and I'll update the filename.

oh my. can I have or share 72?

[buggery.livejournal.com]

Certainly! I'll mark it as shareable, unless and until you come back and say you want exclusive use -- provided nobody else comes along and shares it in the meantime.

She's not evil, she's just drawn that way! Or something...

[zing_och.livejournal.com]

Wow. That is a lot of green. Since I have icon slots to fill (yay!) I'd like to take 69 and 79 all for myself. Connor's just so pretty, and I really like Piper.

[buggery.livejournal.com]

You have excellent taste in pretty men. Enjoy your new icons -- and I think ratcreature still has some Piper icons, if you (or anyone else) want more.

[thawrecka]

These icons are so cool. Really pretty and I may have to come back later to get one.

[buggery.livejournal.com]

Thanks, and please do!

Sweet! Gar avatars!

[ladytimedramon.livejournal.com]

Might I put the icons of Gar up on my homepage, "It's Not Easy Being Green" (http://MysticManor.tripod.com/garfieldlogan )

BTW, I'm always looking for avatars, icons, wallpapers, art - anything to do with Gar.

I think I currently have the only Beast Boy screensavers on the net :)

Re: Sweet! Gar avatars!

[buggery.livejournal.com]

I've marked #76 and #77 as shareable, so that anyone coming across them at your Gar site needn't come over here and ask before using them. Since #78 has already been claimed, though (by liviapenn -- look what she did with it!) I'd rather you only linked to it.

Speaking of your site, though... would it be all right if I used some of the scans you have up there for a future set of Gar icons? As you can see, I didn't have much on hand in the way of source images for Gar when I did these. I'd credit you, of course.

Re: Sweet! Gar avatars!

[ladytimedramon.livejournal.com]

That's OK. I tend to prefer solo pics for the site (note the fanart section).

You can use any of my scans, so long as I can put the avatars up on my site. Anyone else can borrow, and if they want to edit, that's fine... so long as I can put them up.

It's the only way I get anything for my site besides what I do myself ^^;

May I have 55 & 64, pretty please?

[buggery.livejournal.com]

Mm-hm. That is a lovely cover painting, isn't it? Ollie and Connor are awfully pretty -- and I generally don't go for blonds!

[badficwriter.livejournal.com]

Oooo. I'd like to claim 51, please? And share 44.

Ollie looks like a James Bond villain.:)

[vaguarity.livejournal.com]

That's Mister Queen to you. Well, I was gonna ask for that one...but looks like I got beat to it.

Good stuff though.

[buggery.livejournal.com]

Well, there are plenty of lovely Ollie -- er, Mr Queen -- no, that just sounds wrong -- icons left unclaimed. Was it just the evening wear that did it for you?

[vaguarity.livejournal.com]

Yah, the rest I could live without...but that one was beyond cool. *shrugs* No biggie. I'll just be faster next time!

[buggery.livejournal.com]

He looks good enough to eat in that tux, for certain. All yours, now (unless you want to share with lunaticflute -- oh, the pain of arriving too late to claim an icon).

Thanks for leaving the One True Threesome of Ollie/Barry/Hal available for others' use. Anything that gets more people writing that OT3 is of the good, if you ask me...

[badficwriter.livejournal.com]

All yours, now (unless you want to share with lunaticflute -- oh, the pain of arriving too late to claim an icon).

I-er-I kinda wanted to have it all for my very own. I don't have that many....:(

I'd probably give it up for a really good one of Hal, but none of the ones I've seen grab me.

Well, that was obviously a public service!

[vaguarity.livejournal.com]

I'd probably give it up for a really good one of Hal

If you find a good Hal one, let me know. *nods sagely* I just seriously wish that they let you have more than 3 icons. Yar, Kilowog!

[clannadlvr.livejournal.com]

Oh, man, I LOVE the Arrow family in #43. Can I gank that one? Of course, will credit in the keywords...thanks so much for pointing me in this direction!!

[buggery.livejournal.com]

Ollie and his boys are all yours. Don't forget to feed and water them, and keep them well stocked with missile weapons and lube.

[basingstoke.livejournal.com]

I am ALL over #62. And that's a claim, not s share. *grin*

[buggery.livejournal.com]

Excellent choice -- something Green Arrow AND a badass armed woman, all in one icon.

[rinkhals.livejournal.com]

You pointed me over here ages ago on titans_together, and I just found the comment again and came to take a look. Goldmine! I think I'm going to share 46 and 58, if that's all right. Hooray for icon bases!

[buggery.livejournal.com]

Absolutely all right. Enjoy!

[mariko-azrael.livejournal.com]

If nobody else has claimed them, I'd like 45 and 52. I'm willing to share!

[buggery.livejournal.com]

They are now noted as shared/shareable.

[buggery.livejournal.com]

It's yours! And an excellent choice. Mmm, Dinah.

[floridapeaches.livejournal.com]

I'm grabbing #68. *is shocked that no one claimed shirtless!Conner yet* *but happy*
All so pretty.
