TUTORIAL APPRECIATION: April 8th
Do you have a great tutorial you want to share with others? Know of someone who writes amazing tutorials but doesn't get nearly enough love for them? This is your chance to share them with the world rest of Live Journal!
ICON CONFESSIONS BOOTH: April 10th
An anonymous confessions booth where everyone is welcome to confess their deepest, darkest iconing secrets. Be it about a trend, a technique, something you loathe to admit having done, or something you wish you could do. Share your secret with the world, and see how many others are like you.
Q&A: April 15th
This is your chance to ask the questions you've always wanted to ask - and have a myriad of other makers respond with their own answer. Anyone is welcome to ask a question, and everyone is welcome to give their answer!
UNDER-THE-RADAR ICON MAKER APPRECIATION: April 17th
Do you know of an amazing icon maker who constantly flies under the radar? Someone who hasn't been mentioned in every other praise post, but produces icons that constantly make you go WOW? Now is the time to share them with everyone else - give them the love they deserve!
BONUS POST: INSPIRE ME: April 19th
Inspired by any particular icon makers? What about icons themselves? Have a collection you browse through every time you feel as though your icon muse has deserted you? Here is your chance to share them with everyone on Live Journal.
COMMUNITY PROMOTION: 22nd
Promote away! Icon communities, resource communities, texture communities - you name it! Feel free to pimp away as much as you would like!
ICON PRAISE MEME: April 24th
We started out the month with constructive criticism, but we're finishing out the month with love! Ask people to tell you (or show you) what they love about your icons. Spread the love, and hopefully, appreciate the icon!
NOTES:
1. You do not have to be a watcher of this community to participate. I had an idea, I ran with it, and needed somewhere to host it. That is all.
2. PROMOTION IS LOVE. The only way this will work is if this thing is promoted like WOAH. Start promoting now - promote when each meme is posted - I don't mind. But the more people who know about this, the better.
3. While this has been in the works since January, this post at icon_talk certainly didn't hurt the cause. Icon appreciation and love definitely needs to happen! Awesome sauce comm that one :)
4. If you have any suggestions or potential improvements to the schedule, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO SHARE THEM WITH ME. There is always room for more love, especially when we're trying to put the love back into the iconing world on Live Journal!
5. PIMP AWAY
