Outside Resource: Medieval, Renaissance, & Fantasy (or passably so) Icons
This is just a resource for whoever wants to use it. There have been a lot of period rpgs out lately and I know finding icons is always a bitch. So I am in the process of scavenging the various icon journals I know of and picking out anything where the pb is in a costume. I'll do several of these so there's one for each period, the first is medieval and fantasy, there will also be a few in here that are just from various other ancient cultures (Rome, Greece, China, India, etc). If anyone knows of any other icons out there and would like to have them added to the list just comment below and I'll link it up. Let me know if the journal is friends only though so that I can mark it accordingly. That said any post which is friends only will be marked with an asterisk. Enjoy!

I was on here looking for a PB idea, and clicked on the Sam Worthington link in order to see who also did a Clash of the Titans set, and you wouldn't believe my incredibly overjoyed reaction to see that it was a link to my set.

I'm completely speechless that it and my Gemma set were included on the list, and wanted to thank you so much for archiving them. This is a great resource, and one that I've used/recced since December of last year. I'm still flailing in an IM window with two of my friends, and just wanted to say: "Thank you, thank you!"

I'll be sure to link this list in my profile.
