Here are some icons from a crapload of fandoms. Some have been hanging around for a while, some were the result of my last grasp of freedom this week. Yep, it's school time again, which means the slow reader gets to read at least 1 1/2 novels a week. Nose, say hi to your old friend, Grindstone.

So hope you like these. If you haven't heard of any of these shows, I highly recommend any of them without reservation. Go forth. Be entertained.

033-046 . Dexter
047-060 . Arrested Development
061-070 . Friday Night Lights

Anyway, here's a TON of icons that have been piling up in their designated folder. They're nearly all from various LIMS contests, most of which I was very lucky to do rather well in. As usual, there are many alternates

What's this? I'm still alive? And making an actual post? Yeah, it's been a while. School is, as they say, kicking my ass. I'm in a momentary lull between several soul-crushing projects, so I'm taking the opportunity to post some of the stuff I've been making sporadically over the last few months. Lots of flotsam and jetsam from icontests and such.

P.S. My kitty owns your SOUL!! (#101-103)

I know. Not new icons. School just started and my schedule just imploded into negative free time. But I thought I'd use the little I do have to do an instructional post.

Warning! This is especially for images that are overall too much of a dull yellow. Made mostly to get a semi-realistic skin tone. It's gonna look really odd with normal caps...like an explosion of neon blue. Examples of caps in the cut.

Go from this:

Made with CS2. NO SELECTIVE COLORING. Presumably translatable. 7 steps.

( No hablo French. )

Also made with this tut:

I've been a bit lax with the updating lately...getting a second part-time job while taking classes will do that to one's energy levels/time to do stuff. I just haven't been too creative lately. Anyway, here's a big, old fashioned icon dump, all for TV shows. Most of the misc ones are from various LIMS contests, some aren't. I'm also trying out a new layout system; I got bored of the old one. Let me know if there are any problems with it.

54 . Ugly Betty
26 . Misc TV
