Community Profile

Community Rules:

- This is a community for book icons! If you make icons based on covers, illustrations, or quotes from a book (or poem, or short story), they’re welcome here! So are icons of books, icons about reading, authors, and anything else book-related.

- Move and TV adaptations should go in fandom_icons rather than here. Comic book and graphic novel icons should go in comicbook_icons. Beyond that, use your best judgement! If you want to make icons based on supplementary material for a book or series and think it fits here, go ahead.

- Icons based on fanart of books are allowed only if you have the artist's permission, or if you drew the art yourself.

- If you have an old batch of icons that you would like to post here, feel free! As long as it hasn't been posted to this comm before, it's fine.

- Post up to three icons as a preview, and put the rest either under a cut or behind a link to your journal. Please don’t use a NSFW or spoilery icon in your teaser.

- Comment and credit if you take any icons.
