HA! I thought I'd update and freshen up the look for this journal. Does anyone know how to make icons? I'd like to have one made of my daredevil little kitty who keeps on jumping up into really high spots and giving us heart attacks.

Step 1: download an illegal copy of photoshop because you don't want to pay $500 to make LJ icons. Alternatively, you can probably find a free knock-off that isn't nearly as good.
Step 2: Crop the image you want to a square aspect ratio
Step 3: play with effects and add text.
Step 4: Resize the whole thing to 100x100 pixels.
Step 5: if it looks decent and legible, save as... jpg or png, else goto step 2
Step 6: upload. You already know about this part.

Well, if you are talking about just pictures, not the moving, flashy things, I can make those for you. I might even be able to add text and what not. Anything more fancy than that though and I can not. If you want the former, just email me the picture and I can crop and resize it for you.
