I made no X-Men icons during the very busy month of October, but I did manage to eke out forty classic film icons. Coming from me, you can be sure there's plenty of leftover Halloween candy in this batch. *g*

Contents: [8] Mary Pickford; [3] Myrna Loy; [4] Deborah Kerr; [6] Tyrone Power; [9] Boris Karloff; [4] Frankenstein; [2] Bela Lugosi ( ( Read more... )

My monthly random assortment of icons should be posted soon. In the meantime, here are two movie-specific batches: twelve from Here Comes the Navy (1934), and fourteen from Libeled Lady (1936). The latter are by request; I apologize for taking so long, and that the quality of them is not nearly as good as I'd like. It was actually quite hard to dig ( Read more... )

Here we have forty icons--thirty classic stars and ten X-Men. Most of them were made for icontests, although not all were entered. There are a few award winners here that I'm reasonably proud of. *g*

Standard rules: please credit, comment, yada yada.

( The Classics: Cagney, Bogart, Stewart, Howard, Bogart/Bacall, March/Shearer, Powell/Loy )

Well, here it is--the whole heap of general icons I turned out during the month of March. Some of these will have been seen as entries in icontests such as classicicontest or classics_stills--but the majority of them are completely new.

beloved_tree has inspired me with the idea of making humorous presidential-campaign icons featuring classic film characters. Here are my first ten, from her suggestions and my own ideas. They include James Cagney and friends, Danny Kaye, William Powell/Myrna Loy, and Claude Rains.

On the last Sunday of every month, I will be posting the month's roundup of challenge icons, along with "challenge rejects" that I made for icontests but chose not to submit (and perhaps any other loose icons I have on hand). Most of them will probably be classic film-related in the foreseeable future, but just about anything might turn up ( Read more... )

More Thin Man wallpapers, although none are as elaborate as the one I did last week. True Love is my favorite of these three; I just love that picture. Perfect Couple turned out better than I expected at first. Powell & Loy is what it is--I'm actually getting a bit bored with starrysparkle stuff, even though it always works well.

Twelve icons starring William Powell and Myrna Loy as Nick and Nora Charles in The Thin Man.

I was going to be a good girl and settle down to write... but then hildy suggested I try my hand at some Thin Man icons. (Which was timely, since I just watched part of the TCM marathon of all six films two nights ago.) The pictures I turned up weren't entirely cooperative with my efforts, but I think I managed a few decent items.
