Really lovely work! I really like 11 and 18, great colouring and composition. 31 is also lovely, very artistic. 26 is sort of funny, but also sad, poor donkey, poor man. Is it WWI?

Yep, WWI. That's the only picture I've ever seen of an animal in a gas mask...
Thanks so much! I really appreciate your detailed comment!

: D Thank you very much!

Very pretty! :) I particularly like #11, #21-22, #25, #28, and #32. Also, the last sig is quite nice---what's the quote on it from? It seems very familiar to me, but I can't place it. ;))

(And nice new layout---I like it! :) )

Thanks! I made that sig for Lady Haleth on NWeb originally - I'm not sure where she got the quote from. It is lovely.

Thanks for mentioning the layout - it's still under construction, but I am pretty happy with it. : D

Ah, okay, that's probably why it sounded familiar. ;)) For what it's worth, Google didn't quite know, but sent me to Goodreads, which told me that it's a quote by Galileo (http://www.goodreads.com/author/quotes/14190.Galileo_Galilei). ;))

Mmhmm! It's very clean and crisp. :) Which reminds me that I should probably redo my layout. XD

Alternatively, it's apparently from a poem? http://forum.narniaweb.com/viewtopic.php?p=206590#p206590
Now I'm curious if it's in the poem because Galileo said it, or if it was credited to Galileo because it was in a poem about him. ;))

My favorites are 5, 14, 25 and I like the cropping on 1 and 24. I really like the first signature too. :)

ladyadeone February 19 2012, 01:20:34 UTC

Thank you for saying so! : D

These are all gorgeous! :D The cropping and coloring work together to create a mood for each icon.

I saved, oh... lots, actually. 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 10, 11 and 16 from the Narnian ones, and 27, 29 and 31 from the stock.

I can't decide which mini banner is my favourite; and I particularly like the shine you've captured/created on Peter's gauntlet. :D

I'm also curious as to what the quote is from, because it looks like there's more to it than the final line which I think is all I'm familiar with. ?

I'm so glad you like them!
I'm not aware of where the quote is from, but Lady Haleth on NWeb was requesting a sig with that text. : )
Thank you for the splendid comment!

I think I saw her answer the same question on NWeb, so now I know! :)

You're very welcome!
