This palette was suggested by me. Remember, you can (and are encouraged to!) always suggest color palettes for us to use HERE in the suggestion post!
-create 1-3 icons using the colors in the palettes.
-at least one of the colors must be clearly visible in the finished icon.
-you do not have to use the exact colors, you can use similar colors, but using the exact shades makes it more fun/challenging.
-any and all fandoms are allowed (this includes stock).
-icons should be 100x100, 60kb or less.
-post your icons to the community as a new post. tag with round: ##, maker: username. an example post can be found here in the rules post.
-have fun!
Your icons are due by 11:59 p.m. EDT/EST on Sunday March 29! (countdown)

Spring 2026 Most Anticipated?
Mar. 15th, 2026 05:44 amfoxinthestars posting in anime_mangaThe spring season starts in about two-and-a-half weeks. What are y'all looking forward to?
I am very hyped for the new Ascendance of a Bookworm season.
More guardedly looking forward to Witch Hat Atelier. I've heard good things about the manga and it seems likely to be up my alley but I've never read it so I don't know.
I'm also always up for a fun "villainess" show and I'm seeing a couple of those to check out.

Signal boost: survey about wuxia (esp. Jin Yong) novels/media in English translation
Mar. 15th, 2026 11:53 amgrayswandir posting in c_entNot my survey, but I thought I'd share it here since it's on-topic: a researcher from the University of Bristol is looking for participants in an online survey about consuming wuxia media (especially the works of Jin Yong) in English translation.
(It's anonymous, and you don't need to have read or seen any Jin Yong books or adaptations to participate in the survey -- there are also questions about respondents' interest in wuxia more generally, how you tend to consume Chinese media, how much your reading choices are influenced by things like translation quality, prices, formats, illustrations, etc.)
Survey link: Reading Chinese Wuxia (Martial Arts) Fiction in English
I enjoyed filling it out, and the question about book covers has made me interested in reading a Jin Yong novel I hadn't heard much about before! (Which surprised me, since I feel like I'm normally not very influenced by covers.)
