Slapshot 2 - 10 Icons

Nov 13, 2009 14:25

This is my personal icon challenge with roadrunner1896. It's our second trial. And I really need more practice, it's obvious. It's not that hard to crop some pics but to find the right perspective and to do something in addition. Especially if you don't have any ideas. Even though I like #7, I'm not happy with all of them.

Thank you. ;) I've tried to make anything unusual, to avoid my usual style. The ideas came while went through my folder with funny pics. I was more desperate than inspired. :D

Your icons are cool. I like they way you cropped the pics. Especially #1,#3,#6 and #9. The 10th is the best IMHO. I didn't even think about to use his name.

Thanks. 10 - and to a certain degree 6 - are the only ones I'd consider icons, but I am still very lazy and didn't want to strain my brain for ideas. ;p

Number 3 is the only one I would consider using.

So, you wanna do another round?

I thought this is why we do this. To improve our skills and make good icons. ;P

Same here with my #7. It's already uploaded.

Of course, I'm in! It's up to you now to decide which pics. :D

You will be better and I hope, me too. ;) Callum and his hair *sigh* I know what you mean... Also his ears, I do love his ears, sooo cute! <3

Okay, it's settled. The next object of our desire is Gray. :D

His ears are very cute. But not sexy. The one flaw in Callum. ;) *has an ear fetish*

I'll be gone next weekend, so you can take your time. I mean, more time. ;)

They are not a flaw. Not at all. ;P

Enjoy your stay! :D

They are not sexy ears. But I think God only gave him cute ears so I wouldn't combust simply by looking at him. :D

I'll try, thanks.

I think they are. There's nothing unsexy or just cute but I still haven't seen every parts of his body so.... ;)

Hey, I thought you were gone this week as well. :D I finished the Gimp tutorial and posted it last Sunday. It's here.

Well, they aren't unsexy. They are just not sexy. It is hard to explain (I'll try in one of those "requested posts", if I should ever get that far down the list), I just have a thing for ears. It is the first thing I look at in guys and Callum doesn't have ears that would make me all hot and bothered. The rest of him (as far as I have seen ;)) does, though. And the ears are cute, which is great. :D

I will be gone this weekend. Why did I miss the post with the tut? It looks amazing. I did check the main filter of LJ. Argh. Well, thanks for linking me there. I think all the drama about our goalie and some things that got triggered by that kind of ate away from my brain. :(

I have a thing for ears too. That's why I love them. I have seen many male ears and the most of them are looking weird...kinda limp. LOL

I see. It seems I did misunderstand you. And I thought you might be deeply grieved about what has happened. I mean he's been the goalie of your home team. *hearts* It's such a tragedy and affected the entire country. :(

Maybe it was because I posted it already on Saturday, just for me personal to see how it looks and to insert the picture links. I unlocked it on Sunday. ;)

You probably have a different ear type then. ;p

Yes, he was. And there are other things I won't discuss here in public, which intensify that grieve and confusion and all the weird feelings I am feeling.

Yes, posting on Saturday but only unlocking on Sunday would make me miss posts. Unless I take you off my reading filter. Then I would eventually see them when I decide I want to catch up with you. That might be 6 months later, though. ;p

I have to make a Robbie Williams birthday graphic for a friend tomorrow. I will try and use your tutorial for that. :D

It seems so. ;)

I'm so sorry to hear that! *pets* I can imagine how you must feel. I just hope you will get over it soon. *sends positive vibes*

Ha, then I was right. But thankfully I was here to point you at this entry. ;)

Good luck then & Happy Birthday to your friend. :D
