Oooh, I'd like one pretty pleease!

I. Here's the image: http://www.dbmagazine.com.au/341/iv-ShaunMicallef.jpg

If you don't like that one, then any at www.shaunmicallef.com/Galleries/ (most of the good quality ones aren't accessible, so if you don't like the one I've linked to, I'll be happy to search for another myself).

II. I like pretty much all the icon styles on your second page at the moment (Empire Strikes Back, Latin, U2, Coffee, Final Fantasy & Kingdom Hearts...) but I'm not a big fan of the fonts used in the recent Empire Strikes Back and Placebo icons. Otherwise... not too fussy, really. :]

Light textures, borders, or whatever else you'd like to use are fine. I'm also a big fan of transparency but if you don't like working with it then don't worry about it.

III. Hmmm! I would very much like it if the icon looks spiffy without any text. Just "Shaun Micallef" might be a bit boring, but you can try that out if you like. ...And if ( ... )

Hahaha, it's fantastic! Thanks so much! :]

I'll make sure to link you from my own icon journal - and if there's anything else I can do for you please let me know.

Oh I'm so glad you like it. XD And thank you for the thought! (I love your Rove icons, I keep thinking that I should do a couple and figure that no one would use them but maybe I'll have to rethink that XD)

You? You are wonderful <333 *grins*

I want an icon of Richard from Rammstein, so here is the image I selected :o)

Do whatever you like with it, I'm sure I'm going to love it <3 Ummm as for text on the icon, perhaps you could write something like "guilty pleasure" :o) A little bit of unreadable text for decoration is OK!

Also yes, please put my user name on the icon. If you can't fit "minyafalas" in, then put "minya" as everyone calls me that anyway :o)

I eagerly await the result! <3 Thank you sweetie!! :o)

Mmmm. Rammstein. :D I was listening to Sehnsucht earlier actually. L'anyhoodle, I gave it a shot, but if you don't like it, I'll try again. :3

I'm brain dead..and can never figure out what to request anyway ;_;, but I would like to see a font-reference post and some tutorials, please! =D ♥♥♥

You, my dear, are always allowed to request anyway. *hugs*

And I think people can expect the tutorials et font references sometime during the next week or so. :D

Righto, I came up with this, but will understand if you don't like it. :3 In which case, I'll give it another shot.
