TinyGirl's awardicons

This page started out simply as a link for an awardicon I gave that was part of a donation package for an aunction. However, I enjoyed the poem (and awarding it) so much that I decided to give out a poetry awardicon every month. Then, with the approach of St. Patrick's Day, I decided to give awards for 'Irish' items. And the rest just followed.
