Eric icon batch.

I wanted to do some more icons focusing on the later part but I am iconed out. Maybe some other time. Most of these are animated, hence it may seem like I've posted the same one twice but it's merely in different sizes (if you want an animatd icon make sure you get the right size if your account only lets you load those going up to 40k).

I know I'm still pretty crap at icons. lol That's why I only post them here and I tend to use the same colours and largely make animated which is bad. But it's fun and I'm learning...slowly.

I enjoyed the second and third books better than the first because Eric was my favourite character as soon as he appeared.

People seem to react with embarassment when they like a vampire show or is it because it's a porny vampire show? I don't think people are embarassed to like Buffy, but they were embarassed to like Moonlight. Most people I talk to say 'I can't believe I like this show'. lol I like vampire mythology when it's done well and I'm glad I'm enjoying this show because I haven't seen a decent vampire offering for a long time.

I think in proximity to Moonlight, this show looks a bazillion times better. The casting has mostly NAILED the characters and the actors are good so that's a bonus. The strong writing for those characters helps a lot too. I felt like the writers on Moonlight weren't sure who the smaller characters were and therefore didn't know how to use them. I think you can tell a show is good by how good the minor characters are so that's probably why book-shows are much stronger because there's a wonderfully rounded minor character and it doesn't take long to establish their voice.

But, yeah, let's admit it the fact there's a good chance there will be near-porn later in the ships we like doesn't hurt this show's chances. lol I decided to watch it because I thought it would probably have a better frame of reference if it started as a book, but even the tweaking changes they've made so far have been pretty impressive. It's good to be able to compare it to the books though definitely. SO get reading!!! I need to be able to talk to someone because most people i know haven't read them and thus can't talk to me. lol

I know they probably won't use all the content past book one and after watching Dexter, I'm used to that and prepared for it. It would just be such a shame for Eric lovers like me. *pouts* I'm glad they cast Stephen Moyer as Bill though because I like him on the show, he has more spirit thus I probably would still like the show if they don't continue to follow the books.
