Your icons are so very, very beautiful. So many I see are just stuff that seem like stuff I could do and, well, umm...all I can do is snapshot things and cut the pictures out smaller. (More than I *used* to know how to do but, not quite art.)
Draco is so handsome he makes a lovely subject and quite fitting. : ) Have you ever done Snape or Lucius? I'd love some more icons but everywhere I look is a glut of the trio. And I get burned out looking. : )
Anyway, either way, these are gorgeous. When I do use some I will be sure to credit.
So, I saw this yesterday, but I didn't answer because I didn't know what to say. I still don't, but I figured I never will, so I'll just give it a try. Flattery will get you nowhere with me, unless you're complimenting my art (this isn't all that spectacular, I do other stuff on tumblr as well, but that's not that great either). Dear lovely, kind person, if you want to make more stuff you can start by using gimp (what I use, but I reeeeally want PS), which is free. I don't know where to get the program, I forgot where I got it, but once you have it, you can check out gimp_tutorial (ack I can't make a link). If you have PS, you're already at a level beyond my knowledge/ability. He is pretty great, isn't he? I don't make nearly enough HP graphics. I have done some Snape ones, but only like 2 or 3. One of them is the one I'm using right now. Also, if you check out hp20in20, you can probably find some Snape or Lucius posts. And please, dear Clare, feel welcome to come back and compliment me any time you like :)
I didn't figure I'd get anything. My opinion on fanfic and icons and all that *stuff* is that people who spend time to create quality art or stories don't get any pay. The only type of pay or return they will ever get is a compliment in a comment and it won't hurt me to tell them what I honestly think of their work if I appreciated it
( ... )
See, here's the difference between me and those other people: I don't re-read my homework. :) No, in all seriousness, I don't get that many compliments because I'm not that well known or whatever, so I love it when I do, especially such a long one. And I know that when I fangirl over someone's art, I like it when they answer. Makes me feel less ridiculous. :) Not that I consider myself fangirl-worthy by any means. That was an example. Yeah, GIMP is an image-manipulation program, so it lets you do a lot more stuff than things like Picasa. It seems kind of complicated at first, but once you figure it out, it's quite easy.
