A bit weird out of context

Made this for miriel, partly because she posted a request to her livejournal for a ninja!Miko icon to this effect, and partly because she was having a rough night and I wanted to make her feel better.

Here's the original.



The women in the icon are as follows:

Women 1-4: Manami Hara, first as herself, and then as Dr. Miko Kusanagi on Stargate: Atlantis--the screencaps are from Episode 1x17: Letters From Pegasus.
Woman 5: Hello Kitty.
Woman 6: A performer in costume as Tomoe-gozen, a legendary female samurai.
Woman 7: Aya Ueto, as Azumi in the film "Azumi" (or perhaps "Azumi 2: Death or Love"--the screencap wasn't clear as to which film)
Woman 8: an unknown woman from this website.
Woman 9: Kelly Hu, as Lady Deathstrike in the film "X2: X-Men United".




And now, here's the one that can be used on Livejournal.




Save it to your computer, then upload it from a file--it can't be uploaded from a URL.

Anyway, if you take it, please credit it to me.
