So over at icon_talk I signed up and tor_na_do asked for a tutorial. I'll be explaining how I made this:

You're AWESOME!
Thank you very much for taking your time to make this tutorial, everything's so well explained. As I said before, I'm in love with your GIF icons, they're gorgeous, especially the one you chose here.
Once again ¡muchas, muchas gracias!

[albion1919]

Thank you and you're welcome! I'm glad it was easy to follow :D

Lovely guide to make icons. I might try to do this someday when I have the time.

BTW: have you made icons for Merlin 4x13 yet? I'm just dying for some Gwen & A/G icons!

[albion1919]

Thank you!

I haven't yet, I'm being lazy. I'll try to get them done over the week :)

[ella_rose88]

I can't wait for you to post then :)

This is incredibly informative, thank you!

The few ani .gif icons I've made are all b+w at like 16 colors because that's the way only I could get the file size under 40. I'll have to attempt some of your tricks and see if that makes it any easier :)

Thanks!

I love b+w but as you've noted you have to lose so many colours to get it under 40.
