**VERY IMPORTANT POST OF VERY IMPORTANT POST-NESS**

[trf-chan.livejournal.com]

Well, first of all, several things:

1. The Festival of the Supreme Being was yesterday. Happy late Festival of the Supreme Being, citizens! :D May he smile down upon you in all of your endeavors and grant you a blessed and virtuous year.

2. Our virtuous online republic (aka: this community) turns two years old in two days. Happy early Anniversary of the Community, citizens! :D May we have another fruitful year of discussion and knowledge-sharing and so forth.

So, the main point of this post: our community icon.

WE HAVE NONE. D:

This is serious business, you guys.

What I am doing, then, is charging YOU, yes, YOU, the members of this fine community, with creating one for us. Make us as icon that will inspire all with love for our fair community! Rules, obvious as most of them are:

1. Icons must be French Revolution-related.

2. Icons must follow Livejournal requirements.

3. You can make and enter as many icons as you'd like.

4. Icons must be in before midnight on June 19, 2008. Voting (because we ♥ democracy here, obviously) will then begin the next morning, June 20th, and last until June 22nd. The next day, the results will be announced.

5. Submit your icons in a reply to this post. Comments are screened so that no one knows who made what. If you have any other comments/questions on the contest or any other part of this post, I will unscreen your replies.

...So. Yes. I'm interested to see how many people will actually respond to this! XD

So (and it seems I'm the only one :O), I made a large quantity of different, though fairly standard issue icons. The only thing is, I'm not sure how exactly one goes about featuring them in a comment... So, to be brief, how do you do that?

I do it the same way you put pictures in a post - upload them to somewhere like Photobucket and then copy the address with the little < a href=" " > around it, and ta-da. :D
