Can't believe it's been nearly a year since my last entry. Time flies when you're not really doing anything, lol. Just a few cricket icons for now, they're from England's recent win over New Zealand in their opening Twenty20 match, 26 in total. Enjoy!
This is the first time I've made a batch of icons since about November (yikes!). I pretty much had to re-learn how to make them so please go easy with the comments lol.
Just extraordinarily busy right now. I have so much uni work on right now (I have 4 essays that have to be in by the 26th) that Icon making has had to be put on the back burner for a while. Not to mention that I've been unwell a lot recently (nothing serious, just rather annoying).
I know I said I would post some more icons/banner type things but that's going to have to wait. Hopefully I should have something finished by the beginning of March.
Anyway thanks for all the good wishes that have come my way; once again I'm not dead lol!
This is the first Icon award I've won! Woohoo. It was 3rd place in the David Duchovny stillness community. I'm so hyped by it as I don't usually win anything.
Anyway, that's all for now, will have a massive Criminal Intent icon post around the 10th of December when I've finished all my uni work.
I was originally going to post these about a week ago but some university stuff came up and I didn't get to finish them until about an hour ago.
I was trying to do something a little different with this set, I was intending to go for a slightly darker, dirtier/grungier type of look instead of the usual bright/browny icons I make. I'm not sure it worked, I definitely don’t like the look of some of them and as per usual with me I made far too many :D
Let me know what you think, good or bad, I can take it ;)
So after forever whining that I never make any X-Files icons I finally decided to make some (who needs to be doing university work when you can be making icons lol). I made 14 in total which isn't a great deal, but whatever we all have to start somewhere. They're from verious seasons, though 1 is a publisity shot (so actually it's 13 XF icons and 1 DD Icon if you wanna be pedantic).
Some people seem to be having problems seeing the banners I posted while others can see them fine. I don't know what the problem is so I can only apologise (for that and my atrocious spelling lol) all I can think it to be is too many large images on one page that are making it time out. Or if people have dial up then it might cause it to slow your computer down. Otherwise I'm at a loss sorry.
I made some banners / website header type thingys. It's the first time I've attempted something like this so be please be nice. I followed a tutorial for the first one and followed a small part of a tutorial for the others though I can't remember whose they were sorry (I think it was coexist_love for the second ones, I'll check for the first and credit you later). :)
So finally I finished making some new icons. In the end I made about 94, well less if you exclude the few odd ones that I double posted because I wasn't sure if they looked better with text or without. I just kept finding pictures that I thought would make cool icons. I'm not sure if I like them all, some I'm not happy about, like a few of the black and white ones (too many orange ones) anyway I'll let you all judge.
Most of them are from season 1, 4 and 5 (I actually plan on doing some of season 2 and 3 at a later date, I just haven't gotten around to makeing screen captures yet).
I've almost finished my LO:CI Icons, just need to add text to a few and textures to a few more should have them up by tomorrow (sarcastic sigh) then I can start restoring all of my other icons to my LJ.
I have no way of knowing how the hell that happened, all I know is I lost a ton of posts and a crap load of my icons in the process. It's so frustrating, it's lucky I have them on my hard drive but it means that I'm going to have to spend the next few days re-uploading everything when I could be creating new ones and I have to spend time searching through LJ for the momories I had saved.
I'm so angry right now I can't even explain it!
And to top all that off I got stung on the forehead by a fucking bee over the weekend!
Hopefully by the weekend I should be back to normal and I should have the L&O: Criminal Intent Icons finished.
