Awww, thank you so much for the compliments, sweetie! I see what I can do about the icon, but I can't promise anything because I'm going to have much less free time from now on.

no problem :) im feasting on what youve given :)

now, back to the complete fangirling.

The petrelli family ones are especially lovely, the texturing is AMAZING!!! snagged the second wallpaper. It looks so pretty on my laptop wallie ^^

no.16 is my personal favorite though. if im not wrong, you brought the images closer together? the coloring is fantastic and that icon is soon going to be my default ^^

also, 10 &11 are WIN!!! :D

Thank you again! You are making me blush with your fangirling!

Yes. Peter and Emma were seated too far apart to make a proper icon, so I blended two screencaps together.

also, 10 &11 are WIN!!! :D

*refrains from making cheap lip reading jokes...* ;D

Ohh, pretty!

The Peter icons 10 and 11 bring to mind Lauren Bacall's line: "You know how to whistle, don't you? You just put your lips together and blow." :D

Heee, I had to think of these icons when I read what Deanne Bray said about reading Milo's lips... *g*

Wow. Some of those Peter ones from "Hysterical Blindness"...love them. I'm definitely taking the one with Peter kissing Mama P. on the cheek.

And, wow! I feel so flattered that I got my own section in your post *blushes*

I really like what you did with the wallpapers, that gray smokiness. I esp. like icon 47, because there's a huge gap where Nathan should be, and he's not there.

This is wonderful! And of course they're shareable. It would be selfish of me not to want you to share these pretties. *hugs*

I'm glad you like them! I always love requests because they challenge me and I end up doing something, I did not know I could do in the first place. And it is especially fun if my three favorite characters are involved. :) Btw, you are right, 47 works even on a symbolic level.

Thanks for letting me share them, I already have the wallpaper on my desktop and might snag one of the icons as well. *hugs back*

Do you mind if people add text to your icons? (#12 is just begging to say "Emma thinks you're crazy.")...

Taking 12, 13, 16 and 24, (yeah, my Heroes icons need updating) will credit! :)

actually... no, 8 instead of 24. The wide-eyed wonder did me in.

Hee, I'm happy you found a few you like! The Emma icon definitely screams "you are crazy", so feel free to add text. I wanted to post this today or I would probably have played with text on a few of these icons too. But it's always so time consuming to find the right font, size, color, effects etc. For example, I entertained the thought to add "Smells like teen spirit" to icon number 33 which shows Peter's reaction to the smell in Jeremy's house. But yeah, like I said, too time consuming.

These are so beautiful! I love them all, but especially 1-4, 16, 28, 29 & 41. Excellent work!

Thanks, hon! It's always so interesting to me to see which icons people like or consider the best ones. I would have guessed you liked the first few ones because we all liked the scene but I'm surprised by the others. :)

Well I really did like them all :)
But, amongst other things, I liked the sense of the moments suspended in the air in pics 16 & 28. In 29, Emma is looking like I often feel so I liked it for that reason she has such a beautifully expressive face!). 41 is just so beautiful to look it. It reminds of a description I read in a children's book a character meeting an avenging angel and how it was described as having skin of burnished brass. Which was sufficiently striking an idea to stay with me all these years.
