wow  
This journal has not been updated since December 2, 2007. Grad school and various other things (such as issues with getting my brushes to install on PSP on my new-ish computer) have kept me from icon-making.

However, I am hoping to be able to have more time to make icons in the future. :) The Insane Icon Project has essentially been scrapped, due to the fact that I have way too many movies to try to make icons of all of them. However, I will continue going through my movies and making vast amounts of icons from the ones I feel like doing. And yes, the Star Wars episodes 5 and 6 icons WILL be made. I have the caps, I just need to make them into icons.

Anyway, the main point of this post is to inform y'all that I am going through a domain change. All of the graphics posted here are uploaded to my (old) personal domain which will be expiring in a few days. I am in the process of uploading them to my new personal domain, which entails going through all my old posts and replacing the old URLs with the new ones.

So if you go to an entry and the icons are not showing up, do not be panic, they will be up soonish.

Still no Star Wars icons, but! I watched the trilogy over Thanksgiving and capped ESB and RotJ. Once I'm done with finals, I'll start on the icons.

It's been a long time, hasn't it?

These are not the Star Wars icons I promised. I still need to watch and cap the movies.

Instead, a few icons from [info]themed_lims, which I am participating in, and one request. :)

hi!  
Greetings, friends. You probably haven't seen a post here in a long time, save for the one I just posted about the Insane Icon Project. After coming to the realization that it really had been a long time since I'd posted here, I decided to kick myself in the butt and get working again. I will be redoing a few things around here (including the aforementioned re-post of the information about the Insane Icon Project), and hopefully soon I will have more icons to be posted here, including the next two entries in the Insane Icon Project: Star Wars episodes 5 and 6 (The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi).

I just thought I would give you all a heads-up, and let you all know that I'm not dead or anything, and I will be making more icons soon. :) As always, requests are open, though I may re-do that post to make it easier to request icons.

Oh, and finally, every entry in this journal has been tagged for further ease of browsing.

What, you might ask, is the Insane Icon Project?

Well, back in 2004, I was inspired into insanity by an equally insane project that [info]catatonic1242 was undertaking. Hers was to make five icons from each episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel the Series. My idea leaned more towards my own obsession: movies. At the time, I had barely 100 movies on DVD, so I thought that, while insane, this could be a fun, light project.

Presently, I own nearly 200 movies on DVD. Although roughly double the number of movies I had when I'd started, I am still determined to make icons from every single movie I own. That, my friends, is the insane icon project. Some number (there isn't a set number) of icons from every single movie I own. This is the information post on the project, so that you can all see how crazy I am. :)

Movies already done. )

Movie list and requests. )

I am actually alive! Yes, it's a miracle!

Lately, my icon-making tastes have shifted mostly toward RPG PB icons, and I just really wasn't in the mood for making pretty icons. But then I started missing my Insane Icon Project.

So I bring you the long-awaited, promised-long-long-ago Day 14: Star Wars Episode 4! I'll be watching the other two movies in the original trilogy hopefully within the next few days, as well, to make icons from them.

And maybe this'll kick-start me back into non-PB icons, hm?

Without further ado, the icons! 55 in total, including blanks.

Finally, another movie done for the Insane Icon Project! Sorry it's taken so long, lol. And yes, this isn't Star Wars as promised, but rather The Chronicles of Narnia - The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe.

A warning for those of you on dial-up: there are 113 icons behind the cut, including blanks and textless. On the positive side, there's no animated ones this time. :)

This shall also be known as the Many Faces of William Moseley.

These two headers are of the character Christine Daae from the 2004 movie Phantom of the Opera. They are both from the "Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again" sequence, though they each use different pictures and different parts of the lyrics.

This header is of the characters Luna Lovegood, Neville Longbottom, and Trevor the toad from the Harry Potter books / movies. I have two versions here, a simple version that can be used for virtually any kind of layout, and a more complex version that has a specific layout style that came with it, originally shown to me by [info]livetolove. The codes (livejournal and html) for the complex version are included.
