Oh my - you're most certainly welcome. It's darned hard to make still gate icons that aren't boring. So much of its beauty comes, I think, from its motion. I tried for months to make gate icons but I'd never been satisfied and had given up. I made this one because I was organizing my icons in my LJ Scrapbook and I wanted a generic image of the gate to represent the SG-1 gallery. I grabbed my favorite screen cap of the Milky Way Gate and figured I'd doll it up slightly and slap it up.

I was pleasantly surprised when this image came out so that I liked it -- and that's the only reason I posted it! I never really intended it as an "icon" but as a placeholder. I'm very glad, now, that I posted it because you're right: good icons of the gate are rare. I'm pleased that you found this one worthy.

Thank you for letting me know you like it; I appreciate that you took the time to comment!
