I've seen the "favourite userpic" in three journals so far, slightly different each time :)

Here's how I'll word it:

Comment on this entry, and I will tell you which one of your icons is my favourite. (I may choose more than one if I can't decide which one I like best.) You can comment with the one of mine you like the most, or just with anything.

(Which is a composite of the three I saw.)

As for me, I like to use different userpics in different situations, so it's difficult to pick one favourite of my own. However, I kind of like the 'rgb' icon I'm using on this entry. I suppose it's a geeky kind of thing; at any rate, I can't really put into words why I like it except that the concept seems nifty to me.

Well, you have quite a few I like. A consequence of having a paid account, I guess; my six don't seem to be quite enough.

OMNES ARX VESTRI SUNT NOBIS HABENTUR is fantastic; also the Emma Watson icon, simply because she's got a wonderful smile that goes all the way to her eyes. Julia Roberts is another actress like that; when she smiles, her whole face lights up. As a musician, however, my favourite is probably your "SCORE!!" icon. Music jokes never fail to crack me up.

What do you do with a failing music student?
Give him two sticks and call him a drummer.
What do you do with a failing drumming student?
Take one of the sticks back and call him a conductor.

I think I like the candles one (http://www.livejournal.com/userpic/32733032/4107744) best.

Though the Georgian OrlyOwl (http://www.livejournal.com/userpic/46534223/4107744) is also nifty.

Are you familiar with Neurotically Yours? It's from an episode of that (although it's rather offensive, so I won't give the address unless you really want it).

Thank you! [livejournal.com profile] nazarboncuk said that she once knew a Tushetian who used to say "o martla?" just the way I wrote it (without the first /a/). (I had no idea about that when I created the icon; it was after she saw it that she pointed it out.)

No, I'm not. And from your description, perhaps I'm glad I'm not :)
