# I told you before
there's nothing special about 'iconers', you just have to donate some money. Some people do it when they've only been here about a week and barely posted anything, let alone pictures.

and i've not really posted any proper pictures.

# Do you think
£26.99 is too much for a Labyrinth poster on ebay?
Noone else has bidded so far, so I'm gonna leave it to the last minute if I do. It is lovely though.
