Incroyable! I am impressed all over again with these! And how glad I am that you included AC4. I love that icon dearly!

That's why I made a point to keep it in the set, naturellement. :D

THANK YOU again Gabrielle for everything - I wasn't kidding when I said a few days ago I was ready to drop out, but for your wise Muse-ings.

Wow, great work!
(BTW, the last picture is a kitten with photobucket saying no pic is available....)

Thank you so much! And hello, how are you doing?

That's odd because I can see the photo just fine on mine - maybe refresh your browser?

/And hello, how are you doing?/ - Hello there! *g* Actually, I just woke up half an hour ago and I'm in the middle of getting ready for my English lesson after lunch. - I'm studying to obtain a Certificate in Advanced English and I'm scrambling to complete the couple of assignments the teacher gave us last time (because I'm a procrastinator like that LOL), one of which was finding a good novel (that then became a good movie adaptation) to review. Ridiculously, my problem was that I couldn't come up with anything that fit the criteria (like, it didn't have to be too convoluted like The Lord of the Rings, which as a Tolkien fangirl was my first thought). Last night I was about to ask for help to my Anglophone friendlist when I settled on Interview with the Vampire - what can I say, I love me some vampires... :D Ah, decisions, decisions... :D

/That's odd because I can see the photo just fine on mine - maybe refresh your browser?/ - I've tried, still no luck... Mah...

I saw the kitten this morning (weird, huh, I didn't move the icon.) But it's all fixed now.

Good luck with your exam! Is it for spoken English, written or both? Because your written English is excellent as far as I can see.

Interesting choice of film/book - I don't know that I'd call either one "good" (the movie is unintentionally hilarious and OTT). But, each is engaging in their own way. (The Vampire Lestat is the better book and elements of it were borrowed for the movie interview with a vampire, such as the girl's hair growing back immediately after it was cut.)

But I'd be hard pressed to think of a movie/book pairing in which they are both good, or at least similar quality *ponders* the Godfather, the English Patient, and To Kill a Mockingbird spring to my mind.

I think your set is incredible! I'm rooting for you to do well in this round of 20in20. :D

ALL THE CLOSE CROPS ON BUFFY FACE. ALL OF THEM!

Basically all the icons from 15 to 21, especially 19, I think, because I just adore strong coloring, but 18 is also so beautiful and it's incredible how much I like 20 so basically ALL OF THEM. Thanks! I also really love the screencap you used because SMG looks so beautiful and her face is perfect. This woman is so attractive, help me.

Other faves: close crop + two, lips (obviously) Cat1, Cat5, AC5 and basically all its variants (Tara looks stunning in that scene with her hair slightly wavy. Why the made it so straight during S6? WHY?)

Also 13 is very painful to look but I adore the coloring and the clarity of the image. And the Dru icon is such a sexual innuendo. XD

THANK YOU sweetie! (Would you believe I have MORE alts of that image that I didn't post?
http://s133.photobucket.com/user/RedSatinDoll/library/BUFFY/Buffy%20ICONS/Btvsats20in20/Round%209?sort=6&page=1

And I probably have some on my harddrive that I didn't even put into the folder. That's a classic example of me going berserk with color and light variations. :D I LOVE playing with Sarah's face. TRY AND STOP ME.

This woman is so attractive, help me.Yes, attractive is the right word - not "candy box pretty" in a conventional sense although she comes close to "conventionally pretty" in season 5(kudos to her stylists that year!). She was still little-girlish in S4 but in S5 - she becomes very elegant and womanly ( ... )

And now I'm even more confused! Which one should I pick as default icon? Should I stick with this one with bright colors? Or should I use a b&w one? Or maybe a more natural one? I like them all! I really, really like this image and all the close crops. I don't anything anymore.

Also I wouldn't be interested if she had a "cute little button nose" for instance. I think that has a lot to do with it (and her luminous eyes...stopping now.)

She's just super attractive. Lots of it has to do with the fact that I really love her character, Buffy, so I'm attracted also emotionally - which makes the attraction stronger - but she looks so touchable and I'm in love. Send help.

Very happy that you ( ... )

Truly stunning work .... half and half, and shocking are my favourites. Although I could have listed most of them.

Your cat set is lovely ... and I like how they run in the set.

Oh thank you so much Deb! The ones you named aren't my very favorites but I'm glad you like shocking especially - I almost entered the plainer alt version but I thought, gosh darn it I did all that work on the layered version, why not put it out there? *lol*

I seem to be obsessed with the Buffy & Joyce relationship. I thought about you when I made the Joyce icons - I am FINALLY making Joyce icons! Took me long enough.

(I miss having you participate in these rounds you should know, but RL comes first.)

Your cat set is lovely ... and I like how they run in the set.

Oh thank you! I'm pleased with the set but I put it and the AC set together at literally the last minute - I had NO plan or concept for them because the only guideline for the Cat set was "textless icons". I switched the two icons of Joyce around at the very last so I think the entire cat set has a nice softness to it.
