The Carrot Song - saga continues!

I am so inadequate that I actually looked up the words for the Carrot Song.

They are as follows:

My Girl

Do you miss me? It's carrot!
Do you love me? It's carrot!
I love you. You love me.
Carrot! Carrot! Carrot!

Do you tink of me? It's carrot.
Do you love me? It's carrot.
I love you, You love me.
Carrot! Carrot! ( Read more... )

wtf, music

Icon love! I've changed the title icon for this entry accordingly...

Thank you so much - I'm rubbish at making icons, and really appreciate people who are good at it!

It looks even better now!

I can't take too much credit for fabulousness this time - I just hovered over my keyboard with one finger on the Alt and the other on the Printscreen, trying to quick-capture the scenes I liked. Had to do it a few times. Then I just cropped!!

Now, when I get back...I _might_ be able to do an animated shot with my handy-dandy program. That is, unless by then you are thoroughly sick of carrots talking about carrots (which I have decided this song is about, no human factor At All)

Well, I think they are fantastic - and at my technological level - I've never yet worked out how to make an icon move...

I think you're right - it's about carrots loving carrots - and we should cast off our human-centric perpective and see this love as the beautiful thing it is! Theirloveissocarrot!

Oh, that's a slogan if I ever saw one! I'll have to get working on the animation factor and have that flash at subliminal intervals.

And you're sweet - I consider myself such a novice at iconage, so that means a lot.
I have figured out how to make an icon move! I didn't know for the longest time, then I got a program, and what it is, is _linking_ static pictures together! Like a flipbook, only electronic.
Of course you do need a program. Fortunately there are freebies out there.

These may be annoying, but I made them anyway, hopefully before Carrot!Fever has died out.

They're gorgeous, especially the twirling carrots!

But how do I save them in a way that allows them to continue to move? When I try to save the picture it just appears as a still image...

*is clueless*

Aw, thank you!

But that's bizarre - usually if you right-click and Save, it should be just fine; I assume it would save as a .gif automatically. I think - I think it should be okay, though; it may look like a static image because you don't have the kind of photo software that lets it twirl, or you can open it in a web brower page using File / Open, just to make sure.
If you've loaded it as an icon anyway and it still won't twirl, well - I'll have to see what to do about that! And I can't get to it because they're hosted on photobucket and I can't even _see_ them here, thanks to work's devious powers. *sigh*

You're right - they did save as a gif, and once I added them to my userpics they started to twirl! Look at them go! Dancing carrots!
