Icons: Wrestling 20in20 Round13: Shawn Michaels

[slashburd]

This is the first time I've been brave (or stupid!!) enough to enter an icontest of any sort. The ones over at wrestling20in20 are awesome and what inspired me to take the plunge, join up and have a go. I'm not a fantastic graphic artist but I need a load of new ones so why not make myself do them now and themed on someone I never tire of looking at!!?

Anyway, hit the link and they're there. Honest but not harsh comments welcome - me and Gimp are slowly learning to love each other and I'm a relative noob who's thinking of sticking to writing :)

awww HBK!!! how much do I miss him?!! loving the icons hun!! As some one with noooooo graphic skills at all I think these are great!

I adore the "posterboy" one - so funny and so Shawn.

And AC2 - that's his goodbye night isn't it?!! Goreous icon!!

loving these - hope you do well in the contest <33

I miss Shawn so much its ridiculous, and then for H to go missing too has just made me pouty for the last three months watching WWE lol

Thank you for such kind comments <33 I know they're not the fancy pantsy type of icons (I cheered myself for learning how to make multi coloured sparkles yesterday so I have a long way to go XD) but I tried and I almost like then ;)

The poster boy one is from the last interview he did with WWE magazine before retiring and yeah, AC2 is his farewell night. The pics from that night have been icon-ed to death but I'd never seen one done with that pic so thought I'd make at least one rabid-fangirl one ;)

Thanks again for commenting, I think I've got more chance of meeting Cena in Asda than winning anything but I like to think its the taking part (and gratuitous perving) that counts XD

Awww thank you for the kind comments. I konw they're far from what they could be but its Shawn and I love him and..... yeah. I'll shut up now!!

The Old Dog one makes me laugh because of the long running joke about how he can't use the 'net. I can imagine that to be more than true, he'll not be on twitter any time soon ;)

Hahaha, like the DX Christmas promo where he gets all the video game consoles mixed up, and how Hunter says he can't program a DVD player...

Oh Shawn :-)

And the idea of Shawn on Twitter makes me LOL!
