Prompts:

• 10 Themes: Border, Center Crop, Half*, Holidays*, Lyrics*, Plus One/Two*, Rotated*, Stripes, Time*, Yellow
• 5 Category: Tiny Text
• 5 Artist's Choice

*Half: You could do this by having half of a character visible or using roughly half of the available space for the icon (leaving the rest "empty", filled with a texture or so on - similar to negative space)... or even use quotes/text referring to "half"
*Holidays: Something inspired by either Christmas or any other winter holiday.
*Lyrics: There should be at least 3 legible, consecutive words from a songtext.
*Plus One/Two: For those claiming a single person - there should be someone else with them, for everybody else - two (different) persons should be on the icon
*Rotated: There should be a visible rotation to the image
*Time: Anything related to time works - quotes/text, textures/brushes, showing the passing of time by someone aging (or otherwise)...

If you have any questions regarding any of the prompts, please feel free to ask in a comment to this post! :)
