Joyous Stick

Tue, 10 Apr 2007 08:27:39 -0600

Joyous Stick by etherbrian for Mario Kart DS

Ergonimical and multifunctional it ain't, but for many a gamer it's his/her first love. Today it stands as an unassailable cultural icon. Twenty-six bajillion twenty-six hundred fans can't be wrong.

Ronald

Ronald by etherbrian for Mario Kart DS

Clowns are considerably less frightening when they approach with hamburgers, french fries, and milkshakes in hand. However, the boney hand of the Grim Reaper scratching at your bedroom window isn't as unsettling if you've lived a life greatly lengthened by a healthy diet.

Total Eclipse by etherbrian for Mario Kart DS

Transatlantic

Transatlantic by etherbrian for Mario Kart DS

I'd like to get you ... on a slow boat to China ... all to myself alone. But first I have to pack all my stuff into a humungous trunk covered in stickers featuring cities which I've never visited.

Lepidoptera

Wed, 15 Nov 2006 08:01:49 -0600

Lepidoptera by etherbrian for Mario Kart DS

Your metamorphosis was a success! You're now as gorgeous as the day is long! A medium level diffficulty icon because feeling pretty takes a little effort.

lbs.

Wed, 08 Nov 2006 08:25:19 -0600

lbs. by etherbrian for Mario Kart DS

An auto adornment to display your strength. Or your girth. Or both. The level of difficulty weighs in at medium. Heavy, man.

Stormy Weather

Tue, 07 Nov 2006 08:09:33 -0600

Stormy Weather by etherbrian for Mario Kart DS

Don't know why ... there's no sun up in the sky ... stormy weather. Merely medium level difficulty, so it's really no rain on your parade.

Iron Oxide

Iron Oxide by etherbrian for Mario Kart DS

Metal surfaces + watery weathering = rust, my friend. Protect yourself! Medium level difficulty. Low moisture levels.

McDonald's

Thu, 02 Nov 2006 08:40:09 -0600

McDonald's by etherbrian for Mario Kart DS

Whether you love them or hate them they've served over 99 billion. In fact, this very day somebody you know will consume a burger, fries, fish sandwich and/or milkshake at the Mickey D's in your neighborhood. An easy icon. Much easier than exercising away a Big Mac.

Honeycomb

Wed, 01 Nov 2006 08:32:33 -0600

Honeycomb by etherbrian for Mario Kart DS

If I didn't have such an intense sweet tooth I'd feel guilty for enjoying what those buzzing bees worked so long and so hard to concoct. This icon is hard to create, but not nearly as hard as flying from flower to flower day in day out in order to stock the hexagonal sweetness matrix.

Silver Bullet

Fri, 27 Oct 2006 08:16:46 -0600

Silver Bullet by etherbrian for Mario Kart DS

Better use this firearm projectile on him, or he'll rip your lungs out, Jim (with apologies to Warren Zevon). A hard icon to create, but not nearly as hard as getting a werewolf to stand still long enough for you to get a good aim.

Pepsi

Thu, 26 Oct 2006 09:05:30 -0600

Pepsi by etherbrian for Mario Kart DS

It may be the choice of a new generation, but I prefer the pop in the red can with a white stripe. Fully fleshed out to its maximum modelling this icon is a hard one, but it's perfectly acceptable to take the easy route by creating only the first, plain stage. Depends on how much caffiene you've got in your system.

Memento Mori Fishy

Wed, 25 Oct 2006 09:13:49 -0600

Memento Mori Fishy by etherbrian for Mario Kart DS

George catches a fish. The fish dies. George eats the fish. He chokes on a tiny fishbone and dies. (Danse macabre just ain't what it used to be! A medium level difficulty icon. Carfeful with that grouper.)

Triforce

Fri, 20 Oct 2006 14:07:11 -0600

Triforce by etherbrian for Mario Kart DS

It's a big Hyrulean deal to Link, Zelda, et al. But for the denizens of Animal Crossing it's just another bit of home decor. C'est la vie. An easy icon which can be cranked out faster than you can say, "Din, Nayru, and Farore".

Pizza Chef

Fri, 20 Oct 2006 09:18:30 -0600

Pizza Chef by etherbrian for Mario Kart DS

The banana may be nature's most perfect food, but the greatest repast ever humanly concocted in a kitchen is the pizza pie! So, hats off the the fluffy-hatted master of the mozzarella! It may be hard to refuse just one more slice, but creating this icon is very easy. *burp*

Old Spice

Thu, 19 Oct 2006 11:20:11 -0600

Old Spice by etherbrian for Mario Kart DS

No, it's not a term referring to Sporty, Scary, Baby, Posh, or Ginger in the year 2066. It is instead that really strong aftershave once peddled on television by a sailor, with a girl on each arm, who threw a bottle of the stuff to various guys who needed help attracting the opposite sex. It's a medium level difficulty icon, though much easier than actually attracting a member of the opposite sex with scented water.

R2-D2

Wed, 18 Oct 2006 08:02:16 -0600

R2-D2 by etherbrian for Mario Kart DS

Turns out that his name was derived from "Reel 2, Dialog Track 2", which was overheard by Lucas during the production of American Graffiti. Kinda deflates the long-long-time-ago-in-a-galaxy-far-far-away techonological mystique, doesn't it. A medium level difficulty icon ... or, if you prefer, ML-DI.

All Gouda

Tue, 17 Oct 2006 15:24:31 -0600

All Gouda by The IconMaster for Mario Kart DS

Graviera kritis, metsovone, galotyri, kopanisti, thylicotyre. Just a few of the cheeses I am unlikely to ever have a chance to sample. Oh well, at least I'll always have feta. Easier than an American single.

Loot

Tue, 17 Oct 2006 15:18:08 -0600

Loot by The IconMaster for Mario Kart DS

If you really had a big bag of money, would you paint a large green dollar sign on it? I kind of think I would label mine "dirty socks" in the hopes no one would look inside. Let everyone know you're a high-roller with this easy version of riches in a rag.

Oktoberfest

Tue, 17 Oct 2006 15:10:19 -0600

Oktoberfest by The IconMaster for Mario Kart DS

O'zapft is! Break out the sauerkraut and sausage, then wash them down with this pint of malty pixels. Glass effects and a gradient bump the difficulty up to medium, but if you can still see straight you'll be done and back to the beer tent before you can say "käsespätzle." (If you can manage to say it at all.)

Pollution

Wed, 11 Oct 2006 14:22:39 -0600

Pollution by etherbrian for Mario Kart DS

Cough! Cough! Cough! I just don't seem to have the get-up-and-go I did years ago. Hey, look! I'm growing an eleventh finger! A dreadfully easy icon, with the emphasis on dreadful.

Cathedral

Wed, 11 Oct 2006 10:04:01 -0600

Cathedral by etherbrian for Mario Kart DS

Before television there was theater of the mind, and the only thing easier than creating this vintage audio icon is getting hooked on old radio programming. Transcribed.

Zune

Tue, 10 Oct 2006 16:34:02 -0600

Zune by etherbrian for Mario Kart DS

Will it be the iPod killer? Of course not! But competition is a healthy thing (and I, for one, wouldn't mind a nano with a FM tuner). Though it may not look like it, this is a rather difficult icon - yet not nearly as difficult as designing and manufacturing a personal music player that's not obsolete before it even debuts in the marketplace!

Galactic Gazer

Tue, 10 Oct 2006 10:34:08 -0600

Galactic Gazer by etherbrian for Mario Kart DS

He gazes into the heavens. Gazes. Gazes. Gazes. I bet his neck gets tired. A hard icon, but not hard like counting stars.

Peppermint

Tue, 10 Oct 2006 08:49:55 -0600

Peppermint by etherbrian for Mario Kart DS

Grandma's purse must have been a magic bag because there was never, ever a time she couldn't retrieve a peppermint disc from it. Medium difficulty, no magic required.

Starbucks

Thu, 05 Oct 2006 13:38:16 -0600

Starbucks by etherbrian for Mario Kart DS

Named after the fellow aboard the Pequod, who aided Capt. Ahab nail that pesky white whale, and not the Colonial Viper pilot as portrayed by Dirk Benedict. But you probably already knew that. You'd best put off that cup of supercaffeinated java until after you've finished creating this icon because it's almost as tough as a big white whale.

Helm

Thu, 05 Oct 2006 10:03:46 -0600

Helm by etherbrian for Mario Kart DS

Sailing, sailing over the bounding main! This is a slightly difficult icon, Cap'n, but you won't be going down with the ship or anything like that.

Magic Wall Juice

Thu, 05 Oct 2006 07:58:03 -0600

Magic Wall Juice by etherbrian for Mario Kart DS

All the comforts, creature, without which you seemingly cannot survive can only come to life upon sipping the magic wall juice! And even though that nifty DS of yours can be carried about untethered to the wall, when it's dead only the juice will bring it back. Create this easy icon, then, for pete's sake, pay your electric bill!

Maneater by etherbrian for Mario Kart DS

Pretty petals, sweetly scented, and a taste for flesh. Yikes! Mary, Mary, quite contrary, how did this get into your garden?! A hard icon, but perfect for all you beautiful-but-deadly types.
