What can we request from you (tutorials, Q&A, guides etc. .PSDs are not allowed): Anything you need. I don't know if I'll be able to explain much about the older icons, but I can do anything from newer posts or any general Q&A/guides.
Can we hotlink your icons?: Go ahead.

A tut for this icon would be awesome :)

Writing up the tutorial now! :D

[winklevii]

Wasn't able to get *quite* the same result, but I got pretty close. Tutorial is up here. <3

Would you write a tutorial for any of these?

[winklevii]

Absolutely! I actually saved the PSD for the first one so I should be able to get it pretty exact. :)

The second one was largely to do with color normalization (b/c that episode was hella yellow), so do you mind if I incorporate that into a larger guide to normalization? I think that might be more helpful in the long run than just the specific icon coloring, but I could also do it as just a straight-forward tutorial if you like!

Thanks!

No, not at all. Do it as you like - I'm sure it'll be just as helpful. :)
