I use transsister mostly on comments elsewhere, not so much on my own entries.
When I first made the Perrine icons I guessed that some people wouldn't like animated icons in general, and the still version was so that I could use a picture of her (and sort of refer to the animated version thereby, for folks who'd already seen the animation) without inflicting animation on everyone every time I wanted. With more icon-slots available than I was ever going to fill, that seemed easy enough...
I'm still trying to make up my mind between my own fondness for the animated version and the desire to not throw animation around too often.
