not quite a GIP just yet...

[ratcreature]

Utilizing public transit time, I've made some drawings I want to turn into icons, but two of them kind of need some text to really work, and I can't quite decide what text would work best. So if you have any suggestions for these, I'd be grateful to hear them.

*snorting* The first one made me laugh and the second one made me go OH NOES!!!!!!

I can only think of basic text like "Sock!Creature" and "Creatures in Refridgerators" though. Maybe Fridge Creature if that's too long? ^_^

[ratcreature]

Well, I think my problem with the sockpuppet one is that I'm not entirely sure in which direction I want to take it. I could imagine a text along the lines of "Not a sockpuppet, really." to kind of mock the whole "OMG! It's a cautionary tale to never trust anyone on the net to be for real EVER!" reaction to the mess. I had a vague idea that it could also turn into a kind of "Not a BNF. It's just too much work." icon, or something like that, just maybe funnier, or shorter, or something.

I want to use the fridge one as a geeky feminist icon, but I'm not sure whether it would work as it is, or whether maybe I ought to maybe add a cross-out over the image, or maybe add text to achieve something similar, but I kind of blank on what the text ought to be.

I totally got that Ratcreature In Fridge was supposed to be geeky-feminist. (This is my geekfeminist icon.) *G* Hmm, maybe "Not AGAIN!" for the caption?

One Sock to Rule Them All

[ratcreature]

That's a fun caption, but I have no idea for what situations (besides the somewhat rare actual sockpuppet drama) I could use the icon with that text when posting or commenting.

I think the first one should be Master of the Sockpuppets. In the spirit of mockery of sockpuppeting.

The second one, I haven't a clue. But it's funny. *g*

Wait, I do have an idea for the second one:

Jenny Craig will never find me in here!

Substituting the name of your favorite diet personality for Jenny Craig.

I have never even heard of Jenny Craig. I have never tried any diets so I don't have any clue or particular opinion about any of them, except in the sense that I eat lacto-vegetarian and tried going for fully vegan a couple of times, but that's just an ethical choice for me. I think I want to keep the fridge one closer to the "women in refrigerators" theme of feminism and comics.
