Interest gauging: episode-by-episode thing with screencaps and maybe icons?
(ETA: if any of you are into exchanges, Guardian the TV series is part of the tag set for space_swap – sign-ups end on Sunday!)
So, I've been going through the episodes again for purposes of my dramatis personae thingy, and I've been making notes and screencapping as I go (I'm currently at ep 6). Then I got the idea that maybe I should make icons out of the 20ish-screencaps-per-episode – smallish themed packs! And maybe give the "raws" to the world so that people can use them as they wish! And hey, I'm already making notes on stuff like expressions and what people say, perhaps I should include those as well, and-
Well. I suppose it would be a watchalong thing. Do any of the things mentioned above excite interest in people? Here's some example screencaps; I've generally tried to go for interesting composition or team shots/people interacting over shot #10250345 of Shen Wei Pines Sadly. (Well, after I got enough shots of Shen Wei pining sadly. But surely we all have enough icons of Shen Wei Pining Sadly available for our needs?)

Shen Wei does have some nice pining faces, and I want to document them as a sort of "document all the expressions" thing, but more than 2-3? Boring. (I loathe it in fic, but as images, it can work a bit, provided it's like canon – moments of pining/yearning that punctuate the other stuff.)
