Just posting some icons made from the art of those I've admired for a long, long time. Please visit their websites and give them support; I believe support is what artists lack most of these days (aside from food, shelter, etc). Again, I have not used any resources on these icons; however, please do not use them as bases. Furthermore, please

Lol. I'm assuming you're referring to 23 and 24? She drew that image a long time ago when as an illustration of the Neutral Milk Hotel song, "Two-Headed Boy." The song's chorus contains the lyrics, "And they'll be placing fingers through the notches in your spine." And she did a literal picture of that which was interesting to see!

Thanks for looking!

I think 1 and 2 were illustrations for a Japanese maternity magazine [I'm taking a class on Japanese female writers and let's just say, in the course of my research for a paper, the Japanese society is absolutely crazy about babies!]. Jinyoung Shin's style is very exaggerated and her figures are always very emaciated; however, because she loves her figures to be long, long, long with legs that go forever, it's really difficult to capture her characters in icons! Also, she's a great line artist so the shrinking did her art no favors; hence, I could only get 4 icons I really enjoyed out of her art :(.

Maybe you should try your hand at her work? I'm sure you'll find more ways to make it work than I can!

I'm not sure if it's just my computer or what, but all of you icons are coming up as little boxes with the red x's. I'm not sure if something needs fixed or it's just my computer, but I'd appreciate it, if you could tell me. :)

I think it might be photobucket being wonky. The site is difficult logging into, etc. It also seems like commenter before you--and I think she commented like 2 minutes before you--can see the images fine. Ah...let's all wait an hour and see if photobucket gets its act together?

Of course now it's working... sorry about that. My computer is always doing something odd.

I'm snagging number 6. Thank you!
