Scenario: You can't find an icon that fits you. The forum avatars are basic, the Create-Your-Own avatars are less than appealing, and none of your uploads turn out right. The links you find on Google are completely useless. You need an icon.
There's a thread for that.
I've been editing... for about as long as I've had a computer with GIMP. It's a minimum of 5 years. I love to make edits: it's a lot of fun, it's relaxing, and it's rewarding when they turn out good. I actually created a blog called symbols-for-kin with the express purpose of editing or creating symbols for fictionkin and otherkin.
So, you need an icon, right? Maybe you have an idea, but you can't execute it? Maybe you're completely clueless as to what you want? That's okay! If you don't have an idea, just tell me your kintypes/timelines. If you have multiple, pick a few (the ones that are most important.) We can figure something out from there. If you need some inspiration, browse the requests tag of symbols-for-kin. I've picked my best examples and displayed them below.

I can also create "contact cards": edits with your kintype, an image, pronouns, and blog URL. Of course, if you don't have a Tumblr, the contact information could be something like your email, Skype, or other chat messenger. Here's one I made for myself last year, though the information (the blog URL) is out of date. [Image.] If you want one, just ask! You can use it on or off the forums - no credit needed, though if you'd like to give credit, I'm crowboy-mswordstomach on Tumblr.
