This was interesting to read, even though I have no idea how to make icons (as far as I'm concerned it's pure witchcraft). I', looking forward to your work this year ♥

Talk away, that's what LJ is for!

I get it. I like to talk, too; mostly about myself or my interests :Db

I LOVE THIS ENTIRE POST. Especially because a lot of it reflects how I feel about my own icons too. And maybe because I just like talking and talking about icons in general.

Okay, textures scare me; this needs to be a goal of mine too. I use them all of the time, but most of the time subtly. I'd love to be able to use them boldly! And I have and that didn't work out. So I've kinda steered from that; I'm afraid I'd just fail badly. XD That is why I will probably do just that when the texture prompt comes up at jent_lims, ha. And oh! Speaking of, when I saw your name (when I was creepily checking out the sign-up list like a creeper, shh) it excited me just a bit too much. 8D

Gushing over your admired icon makers list! aslgkh but you need to stop complimenting me. ;n;

(So I counted and my entire 2009 - see 932 icons - doesn't even measure up to your several months at nice_beam. lolol I don't know what that means ( ... )

I do like your use of textures, though: they're subtle, but still noticeable. I feel the same, though, when textures are used boldly or cleverly (like when a pattern is exchanged for a pure white background -- for some reason I can never do this well, but I love the effect) it's really nice.

OH MY GOD YES, confession time: I was humming and ahhing about whether or not to sign up, and I thought, "it's too much hard work :( I don't know :(" but then I saw your name and immediately realised it's a place I wanted to be. !!!

I cannot stop! You are too fantastic not to be raved over.

(haha I think it means I need to quit it with the variations & start with the quality ;) QUALITY > QUANTITY.)

♥ I hope not to disappoint! And am definitely looking forward to seeing (& using!) heaps of your icons in the future :D
