Love all the icons. I dunno if it's much of a secret or w/e, but is it possible to tell me how you make your icons..especially the ones of emilie so crisp? Is it jut a screen layer sharpened? Cause i've tried that, and it doesn't turn out right. For instance in your icons her face looks so smooth, however her other features like her eyes and mouth just seem to pop out. I can't seem to get this sort of effect. Any tips you can provide? Or a tutorial? Please, i'm in need of some help!
wow thank you!! I can honestly say that is one of the biggest compliments i've gotten. Hmm I don't really use screen layers that much except when the icon is really dark or if I've added too many colored layers that the icon loses it's life.
I have been thinking of doing a tutorial but haven't decided on which icon to do it on. Any suggestions?
Lmao, you're lucky because I was just about to close the program with the layers pallete on it, but luckily I saw your comment first. I can do a tutorial on #'s 6, 15-20, and 24-26. If you really want to want to know how I did the Emilie ones I can do a tutorial on # 15. =D
GORGEOUS MY SISTER! you're imporving more and more by post i can't wait to you see what you come up with next! :) btw i think you should really apply to elite icon comms because its a good thing one you get accepted yay happy! or you get rejected but can ask for constructive criticsm and give you some pointers and really do help you out! i had to do that for a while till i was finally accepted :) OMG VM WAS SO GOOD TODAY YOU SHOULD OF COME OVER. omg must post icons. and epp i love #4 #2 in the headers the coloring is gorgeous the only thing i suggest sister is to use a different font paparys doesn't look right on graphics but other than that these are really pretty! and sorry if it sounded mean i'm just trying to help you and if you want you can give me some pointers as well :) i really enjoyed this batch good job!
aww, thankies!! it's okay i can take criticism i'd rather you correct me than some random stranger, lol. Grr I know all my fonts suck but that's because I have no clue how to install new ones *headdesk*. I wish I could of seen VM but if I start seeing it now I'll be so confused 0__o. I don't even know which comms to apply to and I'm scared I won't get accepted. I'll still apply but I've no clue where?
Hahaha, I had the freakin' headers foreva I just needed to make some icons to match!
Hey I just got a paid account and REALLY want to make the second banner my lj's banner. But I don't know how to do two things: 1. credit so that your user name comes up and 2. how to actually make it my banner...if you'd let me know how I'd TOTALLY do it!!
As for the other question I really have no clue how to explain that I'm sorry, but I can recommend you go to component_help they helped me with mine! Hope you get these questions answered. =D Good Luck!
