HOLY SHIT, you're back!!! And with a spectacular set too!! *__

[tinebrella]

OMG THANK YOU SO SO MUCH!
It means the world coming from you because you've always been one of the most inspiring icon makers out there and your icons make up half of my text inspiration folder <3
So yeah, you appreciating my text use? IT'S A BIG DEAL. *-*
To be honest, I used a looooot of book covers as inspirations, because they have amazing text use xD
For example, I ruthlessly stole the paper scrap thingies of 7 from this one, and got the idea for the knife I in SKIV from this oneI will totally add this tip to my ancient text guide because book covers are a great source of inspiration for text

Awww thank you so much for the compliment <3<3 ;__; It means a lot, I have a lot of reverence for makers like you who were already great when I was just beginning. I still kinda see myself as the new kid on the block, and makers like yourself and longerthanwedo as the true giants of iconmaking. Idk if it's a weird way of thinking, since it has been over 10 years for me too (omg time just flies by), but it's hard to shake off that first impression

[tinebrella]

SHUT. UP. Really?????
I never was a giant of iconmaking, I tricked you all into thinking I was one by getting involved in a lot of comms, writing tuts and stuff, but I never had even half of your creativity and talent - or longerthanwedo's for that matter.
I really doubt anyone thought of you as the new kid on the block even back then, but I'm sure no one but you does now! <3

I missed swearing at the text and why won't IT JUST COOPERATE JESUS. LMAOOOO!!
Still making these tiny squares with such creativity and care. Awww,I feel you!<3
No matter what people say,I love this movie! Loving 2,7 and 9!The crops in 14,16, 17,22 and 32 are awesome!

[tinebrella]

Awwww, thank you! <3
I'm almost scared to ask, but what do people say about this movie? o_O
I enjoyed it a lot, I loved ALL the ladies, and I thought the plot was quite clever!

[abyss_valkyrie]

Aaaah!Well,you know how there's always people comparing it to the previous movies and saying like they're trying to make it appealing to the mass rather than have a cool,complicated story by having an all female cast.

Like, this movie does an all-female cast in a good way,it's not just to bait people in(at least how I felt) and not every movie needs to be super complicated to be enjoyable,right? But I think it's mostly people who liked the older Oceans movies who found this one lackluster.

[tinebrella]

Awwww, really? I don't see how having an all female cast is baiting, like, I wanted awesome ladies and I got awesome ladies - and lots of fun too.
Also, have you seen Rihanna in that red dress? Come on, the old Oceans movie couldn't beat THAT. :>
Well, haters gonna hate, I suppose.

Gosh, these icons are beautiful!! *stares in awe*

And I also would be interested in that program, cause going through screencaps and/or textures takes up soooo much time! XD

[tinebrella]

Thank youuu! <3

I think I'll tweak it a little and then post it then, since a few people seem interested! :>

Wow, what a stunning set! My favorites are 1,5,9,12 and 18. Welcome back! :DD I just got back on LJ too.

[tinebrella]

Thank you! And welcome back to you too, then! <3

Awesome icons! I especially love the coloring on 1 + 4 and the cropping on 14, 15 + 16 is great. Alts 1, 3 and 35 are beautiful compositions as well. :)

[tinebrella]

Thank you! <3
