well you may do the same if you don't do exactly the same, i.e. by changing which media you use you're technically not doing the same thus why I allowed the claim ;)

I totally encourage those icon makers who want to use different media, after all isn't the fandom made up of the different media? we don't cut here or there, we mix stuff up and cross lines and then reconstruct the concepts through meta and it all goes on and on switching and mixing. =)
