Omg there are so many programmers among icon makers, I love it! :D I WISH I had a proper randomizer for all of this but tbh a lot of this requires manually going through something and only using a basic random number generator to pick an item. I have actual randomizer tools for a couple of there prompts (an image file randomizer that can be used for the inspiration icons and textures, a very simple script that picks a random font I have installed), and some of these sites support randomizing directly (the inspiration word, quote, trope and palette are very easy because of that), but some of these required a ton of effort to randomize anything, so I had to pre-randomize a lot of sets, from which I can just give out a set (of course using a randomizer to pick which one!) when someone asks — that way, I only have to randomize the maker-specific prompts (the remake, screencap pool and character) on the spot.
