Hey guys, since the icon requests seem to have died down a bit (I have 20/30 spaces left), I'm going to try something new.

I'm now accepting requests for specific icon requests or Interest Icons. Which, as I understand the process, is basically where you comment saying you want icons, and I hunt through the interests listed on your profile and find a few fandoms to play with (Icon-making friends, correct me if I'm wrong!).

The real upside to this is it means you don't need to hunt down screencaps or promo pics, and I still get to explore different fandoms and characters and do something nice for all the lovely people watching my journal and keeping me going in this.

You can request interest icons (or specific icons for that matter) by replying to this post or this post. Doesn't matter which!

ETA: 8/30 spaces left.

sometimes icon posts just seem to get away from you. as in, i had no idea this post would contain icons from doctor who promo pics and secret diary of a call girl, but when i found the caps and pics i couldn't help myself. so hopefully you like those. ; )
also in this post are icons from various episodes of how i met your mother (which i just finished rewatching and adore more than ever), icons from glee (as per the lovely jenepel's request), and icons from buffy season 4.

the downside of icon posts getting away is that you don't have time to get around to certain wonderfalls caps you keep meaning to use. but i will post those icons next time, promise, and to make it up to all i'm up for icon requests of your choice!

FANDOMS: glee, how i met your mother, doctor who, secret diary of a call girl, buffy the vampire slayer

*friends/commenting = love.

*fandom suggestions are always welcome!

Knowing how many awesome fandoms everyone here dabbles in, I'm very excited to see what pics you give me to work with!

The Basic Rules: Give me images, and I will make icons. Two or more images per person would be great, and I'll make between 2-5 icons from those. You can rank images, also, if you have a ton. If you have requests from a fandom I'm familiar with, or say a quote or particular celebrity, I should be able to make icons without caps. But images (and high-quality images) are always better.

Oh, and if you don't want these icons to be made sharable with others, can you please include a note in your request? thanks!

There'll be 30 (eep!) spaces, and feel free to reserve a spot until you've got the caps you want me to use.

my fourth fanvid uses one of my all-time favorite songs to show the doctor remembering rose.



Song: April Come She Will
Artist: Simon + Garfunkel
Characters: Rose + The Doctor (Both Nine and Ten)
Summary: After the events of Doomsday, the Doctor remembers his life with Rose.
Spoilers: Mostly for Doomsday, but other clips used from series 1 and 2.


also, i have jumped on the awesome bandwagon that is whedonland ! come join us with our whedon fandom goodness. i'm on team sunnydale. ; )

i hope everyone is having a lovely summer; i know mine has kept me watching new (and old) tv shows and hanging out with friends and generally enjoying nicer weather. but another thing it's given me time to do is reflect a little more on my icons; as you can see this post contains icons from two "movies" (what do you guys count dr. horrible as?) that i've already iconed, but the difference between these and my last big beauty and the beast post, i think is pretty notable, and this time i made some dr. horrible quote icons and a few icons from the adorable dark horse penny comic, which i highly recommend. also included are a few broadway icons of various natures, icons from btvs season 7, and icons from season 2 of pushing daisies*. yay!

sooo many new fandoms in this post- we're talking arrested development (which i recently rushed through, thank you hulu.com), scrubs (a longtime favorite), star trek tos (i blametoothpasted, mostly, though tree00faeryhelped, too). plus merlin and gossip girl for my icon battle withwildalyss. then some old favorites, like veronica mars, dollhouse, pushing daisies, and so on. plus toy story 2! and buffy wallpaper.

there are infinity fandoms in this post. almost. ; )

wildalyss and i have finished our icon battle! she was kind enough to format and post the results, and i'll give you guys a link in case anyone's interested. which you should be; these are awesome. ; ) there are icons from doctor who, disney movies, pushing daisies, gossip girl and more.

enough talk, here's the link!

p.s. my icons from the battle are steal-able, but i'll also post them here for your convenience in my next icon dump.

a third fanvid...still doctor who. ; )

( this is a brand new problem )

are two (rather cliche) examples of the many, many british things i love. towards the top of that list lie some great tv as well - doctor who, for example, and bbc adaptations of jane austen's novels. oh, and their use of the word "brilliant." this post contains icons from harry potter and the sorcerer's stone, doctor who's christmas special "the runaway bride," and their highly enjoyable (imho) ITV miniseries "lost in austen."

...so yes. enjoy! i had fun making them. ; )

alright, i did say i had another video ready to post, and here it is:

( i've got a little hunch that there is something going on now )

...is still kind of one small step for a fangirl. ah well!

the news, of course, is that i have taken my next step into fanart and begun to create fanvids. these are (and will mostly likely continute to be) doctor who videos, considering that's what footage i have on my computer right now.
i have two already finished, and will be posting the second on youtube shortly. but here is my first!


...all of which beg the questions:

thanks for watching, guys, if you have! ; )


...and in a totally unrelated note, i have an exciting new lj header and some mixed feelings about it. opinions?

oh man. there are SO many fandoms in this post. i cannot list them all. literally; because i didn't recognize some of the fandoms people gave me in their request icon images, heh, but most mostly because there are just so many. so i'm using my usual icon table to post these, but there's a little key i added at the bottom saying who requested what.

thanks everyone who gave me icon requests, i may have gone overboard, but only because i got some very lovely images. all request icons in this post are sharable, too! ; )

Just a quick reminder that there's still a little time to ask for request icons- I'll be posting them in a few days. I originally had planned for only 20 slots, and right now there have been 14 requests. So six more people can request icons here if you want.

Oh, and I'll try to update this post with the current number of slots left. ; )

i spent a long time trying to decide on a favorite scene for picspammy 's new challenge, and finally decided i had to do something from restless. it's one of my favorite buffy episodes of all time, and it's also one of the most visually stunning episodes of tv i've seen overall (okay, except for maybe every episode of pushing daisies. but that show is a glorious exception). i don't think it turned out quite as well as my "reasons to watch firefly" picspam, but such is life.

oh, and there's a challenge to other picspammers at the end there. ; )



( They will find out, you know. )

Guys, this is making my night:



I don't think I ever expected to get 100 friends on lj, and it only seems appropriate I honor all the amazing people supporting me with some request icons of their choice.

Basically, give me images, and I will make icons. Two or more images per person would be great, and I'll make between 2-5 icons from those. You can rank images, also, if you have a ton. If you have requests from a fandom I'm familiar with, or say a quote or particular celebrity, I might be able to make icons without caps. But images (and high-quality images) are always better.

Again, thanks everyone, and I'm excited to see what you give me to work with!

ETA: one last favor? if you don't want these icons to be made sharable with others, can you please include a note in your request? thanks!

ETA: requests now CLOSED. icons can be found here.

...which isn't to say that i don't have other favorite celebrities, but my amazing f-list (and others who posted suggestions!) managed to pick some very cool celebrities for me to icon- neil patrick harris, audrey hepburn, jennifer garner, nathan fillion... you get the idea. so there are a small ton of random celebrity icons, then a few from doctor who 2x02 ("tooth and claw") and a bunch from 4x02 ("fires of pompeii"). plus i threw in some ridiculous season 1 buffy (from 1x03 ("witch")) icons, just for kicks.
ooh, and a firefly wallpaper, a firefly banner, and a jennifer garner banner. becuase i have an addiction to making graphics. ; )
enjoy!

it was only a matter of time, i guess, before i made a picspam. and after seeing collswan 's awesome "9 reasons to re-watch firefly," i really couldn't help but come up with a few more reasons. so, without (much) further ado, here is my first picspam, dedicated to one of my favorite shows of all-time ever. ; )

ALSO here are some river wallpapers, because shah_of_blah requested them, and because river is amazing. ; )

i'm not sure this post could be any geekier (which is not a bad thing, as i love geeky tv). icons are from torchwood 1x13 ("end of days"), the second episode of firefly ("the train job"), alias 1x03 ("parity"), and even a few from buffy 6x12 ("doublemeat palace"). to continue the geekiness shah_of_blah and i just posted a new chapter of our crack!fic "very secret diaries...on the hellmouth!" over at hellmouth_vsds, and it would absolutely make our day if you checked it out. (okay, shameless plug over now- enjoy the icons!)
