icon meme

so [livejournal.com profile] master_kogane has this fabulous icon meme going, and i love so very much to talk about my babies!

01. Reply to this post, tell me if you want to participate in the meme and I will pick six of your icons.
02. Make a post and talk about the icons I chose.
03. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
04. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon squee. Whoo!




in your bathroom - so i saw several versions of "i'm whatting your what in your whatever" going round and thought, 'neat', took the pictues of my (then) Wet Tiny Green Monster in my bathroom, sensed through the force that i would soon be in a serious hot water crisis ... et voĆ­la!

otp - so i was on that blindingly beautiful beach in queensland, australia, the only thing that spoiled the fun being not being allowed to go into the water because of the stupid jelly fish whose mating ritual is so ferocious that no human can survive it. and yet, there was something exceedingly sweet about the depiction of a jelly fish making love to a human that i declared jellyfish/human to the otp of my (second) australian summer (the only thing i added to the sign were the letters o, t, and p.)

so it's like in those old skool black-and-white si-fi movies where they have like a light bulb which is like the coolest thing ever since the invention of the bottle opener...

last summer so i was fooling around with that picture and one setting of the texture totally freaked me out. looks like there's blood running down dumbledore's face and remembering that he died near summer time... (he knew [and seemed to be the only one at that point] who did what exactly. AND HE STILL DIIIIED!!)

so a long time ago i was going to see how hard i can push that picture of luke without breaking it. i was quite pleased with the outcome. also, i still have a teenage crush on luke the size of a universe.

- so i ganked the picture of the that darling little puppy that was pretty cute on itself, but boring. and i came up with this. sirius' animagus being a dog and all. get it? yeah, well.

OMG YOUR JOURNAL HEADLINE. IT'S KILLING ME. I'M GIGGLING CRAZILY NOW, THANK YOU!

1. I love that flauschy little thing. I love my hot water more though D:

2. I've never been to Australia, but that sure makes me want to. I feel the need to write some jellyfish/human porn. Clearly, I should not be allowed to the internet!

3. It makes me think of Mystery Science Theater 3000, alas it is awesome. And though I'm normally not very fond of pink, I think it's really fitting for the icon.

4. That's actually a texture? Wow, that's scary! I like fooling around with my photoshop too (friend gave it to me not so long ago, so I'm still a noob, lol). alas, I know what you did last summer~

5. Welcome to the Crushing on a Star Wars Character Club. Here is your welcome basket. I like the colors and every time I look at it, I notice something new!

6. Funny icon is very funny. And I like the little thing above the mini text. *words elude me in the moment*

very sorry for taking so long to reply. Stuff Happened the last days! and good stuff too. :)

oh thank you! you said something to every icon!

what, after my sekrit identity was revealed in our conversation i thought there's no sense in hiding anymore. and i FEEL SO FREE NOW! ::wiggles::

usually i set a texture to overlay or screen, depending on how bright/how much contrast i need it, and then take it from there. go on playing around with your ps! it's great to see how you get better and better. and then some betterer. ;)

Good stuff happening is good :D

(Well, I like your style, so I like them all, so yeah, I had to comment on them all~)

Stop wiggling around, you are distracting me from reading my pronz! ;P

I'm still fighting with the layers option lol, I think they don't like me!

I <3 Darth Vader (but only if he keeps the helmet on!!), I can haz my own fraction noa, yes? :D

oh how could i forget darth vader??! i shall emo-cut myself with my light saber and accidentally cut off MY ENTIRE ARM!!

what's the issue with the layers? maybe they just didn't read the manual?

LOL there was a fanficrants a few days later with that XD (well, at least they won't bleed to death right? :D)

They aren't doing what I want! Or maybe I'm just too stupid to get it right, lol x)

[identity profile] coffeestudies.livejournal.com 2008-04-19 11:28 am (UTC)(link)
that was the rant i was thinking of! :D

have you tried online tutorials? they can be very useful and every time i follow one of them i learn something new because everyone has their personal style and magic tricks.

Stop wiggling around, you are distracting me from reading my pronz!
i might even have a toothy end with which i smile a wicket smile right before i EAT YOU OUT!

you hate me for begging you on my knees in my new post to write jellyfish/human, don't you?

[identity profile] master-kogane.livejournal.com 2008-04-19 03:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Heh, I had that suspicion! :D

That would be an option but I have to find one for the Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended Portable, I think they are differently aufgebaut (brian haz the dumb :D)!

OM NOM NOM NOM? D: *crosses legs*

lkjlkjl, I just saw that post~ and was busy reading the Mcshep tentacle prons until now
