Fantastic artwork, esp being a Buffy fan.

Beautiful! I think 6 is my favorite, but it's really hard to choose. Depends on the situation and the mood, I'd think. :)

Thank you hon! I made several versions of #6, including the textless one that's Gabrielle's favorite.

Beautiful work. I may end up consulting you for ideas/tips regarding a banner for a Joyce fic of my own.

Okay, here goes.

A few years ago, I had … what? one story banner, maybe two. Loved them, but still it only made me hungry for what I knew was possible. Then suddenly things changed, through luck and generosity and fortuitous parenting (my daughter sroni has done over a dozen banners for me). Now, bolstered by three banners from the Spike-happy comlodge and four fantastic ones from blondebitz, over a third of my Buffyfic output is represented, with more to come as sroni continues to address the backlog.

The problem just now is one particular story. “ All Ye Who Enter” seems to call for precisely the kind of blend in images and backgrounds and textures that you turned out for velvetwhip, and that kind of thing just isn’t in my daughter’s skill-set. Except, of course, that this is Joyce and Angelus, which makes for something of a different mix.

Anything you could offer would be deeply appreciated.

Sroni's your daughter? Cool, I did not know that.

So you'd like me to produce a banner? I may be able to do that. I will read the story and then let you know.

You already know how powerfully effective and magical I think these banners and icons are, but I'm saying it again, because I can't express in too many words how extraordinary your work is and how grateful I am that you put your talent in the service of illustrating my writing!

"in service" is the perfect phrase Gabrielle; consider me your humble handmaiden! Your prose moved and inspired me and your feedback constantly encourages and challenges me, I can't begin to show my gratitude for your friendship sufficiently. A few pictures seems a small gift in exchange.
