I haven't heard a good LoM podfic in so long, it'd be nice to see if we could unearth some :)

[talkingtothesky]

I knowwww, right? I've listened to everything on the podfic tag at lifein1973 but maybe there are more lurking somewhere ♥

[milly_gal]

Speaking of LoM, I had the best idea for a fic the other day, but just haven't had chance to jot it down....looks my my LoM muse is rising ;)

I'd really like a few ACD Holmes icons, either Sidney Paget or Granada if you were interested.

[talkingtothesky]

Oooh yes of course! Do you have any favourite illustrations?

[thesmallhobbit]

In their rooms at 221B or there's the classic on the train scene. Thank you.

[talkingtothesky]

And illustrations :D

Do you make animated icons? Because I have some requests for them but I don't want to trouble you if you don't want to make them, haha.

[talkingtothesky]

It would take longer, but I could figure out how to do it :D I know how to make gifs, it's just making that smaller hahaha. I'd really like the practice, to be honest.

[healyg]

Okay then! Here are some of the avatars I want you to animate. Could you animate the sparkly eyes on the monster kid in the striped shirt in the top right-hand corner? If that's too much, then I'd like you to animate the two avatars in the bottom right-hand corner (the one of the dinosaur in glasses) so that it flips between the two. (I'm not sure what you'd call this. Also, you may want to change the backgrounds so they match.) Thank you very much, whatever you choose to do!

Awww, man, I think I misunderstood what you were asking me! I think this is outside my capabilities, I'm really sorry.

I find it intriguing that you're requesting icon prompts so we can get gifts from you. *g*

That said, I requested icons in my Day 2 post, if you've still got the time and inclination. [Robert/Sol (Grace and Frankie), Peter/Chris (Teen Wolf), Ragnar/Athelstan (Vikings), Hansel (or Hansel & Gretel) (Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters), or TJ (Political Animals).]

Full disclosure, someone else has offered to make me some, and I've found some Hansel & Gretel and Political Animals screencaps to send her. Grace and Frankie is a lot harder because it was a Netflix show and it is really difficult to find screencaps, though I have found a very few and some GIFs. Is it possible to create an icon (not necessarily an animated one) from an existing GIF?

[talkingtothesky]

I find it intriguing that you're requesting icon prompts so we can get gifts from you.
Yeah, so I cheated a bit? But I really, *really* enjoy making them. :P

Is it possible to create an icon (not necessarily an animated one) from an existing GIF?
Yes, I should think so! I can import the gif, load the frames and then resize them. Or select just one if you'd like a still icon.

Teen Wolf is the only show on that list I'm familiar with, and it sounds like the only one you don't already have people working on, so can I do that? :D

[spikedluv]

That would be lovely, thank you! I haven't found any Peter/Chris icons. (There have been some interesting Ian/JR tweeted photos - that i saw on Tumblr - if you wanted to use those as well or instead. They make it so easy to slash their characters. *g*)

[talkingtothesky]

Ooooh could you link me? :D

I wish I'd seen this sooner, I actually posted about icons on mine, lol. I don't have any specific urges, just... I posted over here XD

There needs to be more LoM podfic.
