I was hoping you'd like that one. 8D I tried to make one with the text bouncing around (like actually described in the fic) but it didn't look realistic because I had to make the text too tiny. =/

<3!

The font looks very clear--mind sharing what program and res you used to make them? I'm trying my hand at icon-making too, hopefully. XD

#16 owns my heart, even thought I don't think I will use it. Basic account only allows a meager 6 icons. T_T

I used Adobe Imageready (7?), the version I got with Photoshop 7 when I bootlegged it a while back. Its smaller than Photoshop, so my computer doesn't keel over, but it's got almost all of the things I need to make icons. =) Hope that helps.

And thank you!

No, no--thank YOU. I've only ever used Photoshop and while I have imageready, I had no idea it's a similar graphics program. ^^;;

Imageready is specifically for graphics for web use, I think. It has a bunch of different settings you can jiggle to make your graphics small and neat so they load quickly. It's what I use to make gifs too. It keeps them very small and perfect for use on eljay. 8D That last icon was 50+ frames and was able to be compressed just under eljay's icon limit while keeping the text nice and smooth.

If you want to make icons, I'd take a look at this for ideas: http://iconsbycurtana.livejournal.com/23826.html

...Which I need to take another look at myself because my icons are sucky and I really should do better. D:

hese are lovely! I totally feel the need to go reread her fics now :P Also, I have infected all of my friends with the wonders that are your icons (sadly they do not venture into the realm that is lj, but still!)

8DDD THEY'RE LIKE HERPES, ONLY ICONS. ICON HERPES.

Icon making has given me reason to reread everything multiple times. I love it.
