I don't really know anyone on LJ who has my LoA ~feels~ so I can't see these being very popular, but that's fine... It made me happy to make them, because it was an excuse to look through photos. I am so excited about the blu-ray release.

We've had a final burst of summer here in the UK, but I notice that many of my friends are thinking fondly of autumn days ahead. So I have made a few icons.

Samples:

I also thought it might interest you to see what the images I start out with look like... I'm not a very fancy icon maker, but I am learning a few things as I go along. Anyway, below I have two of the base images for these icons.

As usual, comments and credit are lovely... If you're interested in more autumn icons, check out these posts!

I wanted to make a work related icon to reflect what I'm currently up to... And since I wasn't sure exactly what I wanted, I made a few. Caffeine and the paraphernalia of an academic working life. Enjoy!

(And if you like those, you might like these.)

In response to requests from a few of you... ladybird97, I tried with the Tyrion icon, but I am really not very good with text. But here it is anyway. Some gin and tonics, some sleeping people, some rain, some ruins, some cream tea.

Experimenting with colour a bit, influenced by my ongoing enjoyment of plastic lofi cameras and their coloursplashing/vignetting/soft focusing sort of look. I think this has worked to greater and lesser success in this batch. Let me know what you think.

In this batch: lipstick (including men in lipstick - equal opps icon making, yo), icecream, peanut butter products, rain/umbrellas (to celebrate our "lovely" summer...!), telephones.

Been a while since I made any icons! A small, feeble clutch from Game of Thrones 201, a small selection from The Wire with quotations, and a batch of stock icons related to food, Easter and miscellaneous stuff I like.

You know how these things work! If you friend me, drop me a line here and I'll probably friend you back.

I've done a bit of friends list cutting today - just trying to streamline my lj experience, so I've removed dead journals and taken off people with whom I don't interact or who don't particularly engage with my journal. Which isn't to make anyone feel guilty! I just enjoy a certain degree of reciprocity in my journalling, so if we don't really talk then it doesn't make too much sense for us to stay friends. Drop me a line if you think I've removed you in error!

Two important things:

1. It is apparently Pie Day in America;
2. It is apple_pathways's birthday!

So: some pie icons and some Amy-inspired icons (gardening and fairytales) - plus a couple of macarons, just cos I like 'em. And the pie icons let me made a little nod to a favourite programme of mine!
