This icon batch contains paintings of women from approx. the beginning 1500's to mid 1500's. I found a few paintings on random sites, but I found most of them at The Realm of Venus.
If you love one of the paintings or if you want to know the name/artist just tell me and I'll try and find the exact link :)
Oh and be nice to my icons, I put sweat, ( Read more... )

Opinion on special effects: not bad. apparently you could clearly see Edward's golden contacts but I'm really bad at spotting contact lenses so that was fine with me.

Finally, I've figured out how to make icons! ^^ I use this program that I happened to stumble upon in my programs list, it's called Corel Paint Shop Pro X and it works pretty well so far. I've made 6 icons from one of my favourite movies, Amelie. Of course only in french, though. ;) I quite like how they turned out, especially the first 3.

I recently bought a poetry book, it's called "Poems of the Romantic Revival". Poems from that time period are my favourite...Except for Pablo Neruda, who's a pretty modern poet. Here's an expert from a poem by William Wordsworth that I absolute love:
