A Community Celebrating the Lives and Times of Kara "Starbuck" Thrace

And a goooooorgeous new header by cosetteferaud!! So come click through to the comm and tell her how stunning it is!!

Also...feel free to weigh in on the comments about what things you might like to see at the comm in the future, if you have a preference! I was thinking recently about seeing if there was any interest from y'all about writing some guest posts/essays about why you love Kara Thrace (like the one rayruz posted here)--or just exploring some aspect of her character since she has so many layers. Any interest?

--more than 50% of your userpics/photobuckets/tumblrs feature our favorite fighter pilot ;)
--you own a device/vehicle/pet/object that you've named "Starbuck"
--you've thought about or actually gone through with cutting your hair like Kara's (bonus points if you've brought a picture of Kara to your hairdresser!)
--you've thought about or taken up shooting/target practice and/or flying lessons
--you've thought about or gotten a tattoo like or inspired by hers
--her picture from Final Cut is taped to a surface in your house for "Fitspiration"
--you have Kara dogtags and have worn them out. In public.
--you've cosplayed as Starbuck
--you've told people they can call you God. ;)
--you've bought an army jacket and a black sports bra....just because. 
--you've made vid/graphics/artwork/fic featuring our fair-haired heroine.
--in a crowd, you like to yell, Make a Hole!
--you've bought a Top Gun mug, artwork, a t-shirt/sweathshirt or other Kara-related memorabilia.
--you're not so fond of Kat either. ;)
--you know every Kara scene in BSG and can identify the episode it's from in less than 30 seconds. 
--you have an involved backstory of how Kara got her callsign.
--you see the actors who played Socrata or Dreilide on other shows and shout "Kara's mom/dad!" at your TV

Got others? Add your own in the comments! Or talk about how you stack up with these!

(OT: Katee headed up to Montreal today to shoot Riddick! Wheee!)

Comment on this post with your favorite Kara icon! Tell us who made it and why it's your fave!

(Was paging through the Frak-That.com archive when I noticed these caps from Islanded which are kind of interesting since the editors were clearly having a lot of fun with the fade feature! There's several more (that don't contain Kara but are also kind of fun and interesting with Tigh, Caprica, Bill, Lee, Gaius and Helo, you can see them here) 

                                         Kara plots awesomeness...
