Because I couldn't bear to fail on living up to my "post once a month" resolution, I hesitantly signed myself up for the first activity at bestof-icons, wherein people could choose icons of mine that they wanted to see me remake somehow. I'm really glad I decided to join in cuz I actually ended up getting excited to open PS again, and it afforded me the means

I am ALL over your Matt Bomer icons. Gorgeous.

Edit - I think some of them aren't loading for me. Is it just me? My computer can be like this, so I wouldn't be surprised.

What a fine compliment! Thank you, Heather! :D

It's LJ. I can barely even get it to load a page in under 5 minutes at this point. It's so wonky today!

[queer_theory]

I'll just have to keep coming back to check until I'm able to see everything! I really love the icons I can see. :D

Oh wow, these are all so stunning! I LOVE what you did with my request, taking inspiration for one element (composition) from the original icon but changing everything else from the used image to the color scheme. I especially love that you decided to go from extreme vibrancy and contrast to much more light and muted look. That composition style really works with both styles! :> Oooh is 20 another alt for that icon? Cause it's REALLY stunning too! Such a fun composition and the yellow is so vibrant and pretty. And 23 is all kinds of awesome as well, the composition is so minimal and interesting at the same time

Oh my word, how you do flatter me with your brilliant comments, Tommi! :D

I loved the original icon you gave me, so I knew I had to spin it to give it a fresh look rather than making something too similar. Muted and natural colorings will probably be my major targets of improvement for 2013, so it's wonderful to hear that you enjoyed the softer, subtler coloring in the remake! And yes, #20 is an alt for that remake. I almost went with that version cuz it's completely different from the original piece, but I thought the soft pink one translated the line structure better.

LJ is being weird to everyone but me apparently cuz I'm the only one who can see all the damn icons here! It's so weird! I am over the moon that you like the Kate icon for beatsagain's original requested piece. I kept tweaking the coloring til I got most of the pink and purple out so that it would look more natural. The remake for raiindust's request is probably my fave thing here even if it's quite similar to the original in coloring scheme and texture use. OMG. Trying to make the

Holy fuck. I love all the remakes Kim!

for some reason some of the alternates don't load, but I'll definetely be back later to check those out :)

[library_of_sex]

Awww, thank you SO MUCH, Amaya! <3

For some reason, I'm the only person who the entire page is loading for properly. What the hell is wrong with LJ now?! :P

Oh, and thank you for the v-gift, hon. It's so unexpected!

[neatmonster]

Lj is being so annoying lately...

You're welcome! I was sending some v-gifs after I commented here and you name came to mind in that time so I hope you like it :D

[library_of_sex]

I'm shocked that notifications are actually working properly since everything else is taking forever on LJ for me lately. UGHHHHHH!!!!!!!

You're a true sweetheart, so again, thank you for thinking of me! :D
