Nice. Thankyou. =:o}

Glad you enjoyed - it was tremendously fun to write! :)

(Also, that icon is amazing.)

Glad you like it. =:o} Are you familiar with Gir (from "Invader Zim")?

The first version I did is as you see here: Replacing the Scary Monkey with... a different scary hominid. =:o}

That took a fair bit of manipulation of the inset image to fit the shape and perspective of the screen from the original shot of Gir. Then it occurred to me, if I did the *reverse* manipulation to the shot of Gir, and just blacked out the screen, I'd have a mask into which I could easily drop any screen image I wanted. The plan was to build up a whole set of these icons for all my fandoms, and/or for all the Doctors, and/or to do some animated ones... Alas, that never actually happened (so far...).

Indeed I am! Been meaning to watch more, though.

I'm always fascinated by the icon-making process - so it's neat to know how that was done! Thanks for the info. :)

Very satisfying conclusion. I actually ended up sympathising with Kryl and Larthza, and I especially liked your characterisation of Erimem.

Thanks for writing for me. :)
