Feel free to use, and if you have any more ideas, let me know. I've only done a ( Read more... )

How about Lafcadio Hearn since he's recently been on-subject? I'm curious to see what he looked like. He was a famous author, so there must be a photo somewhere :-)

I think I'll add them to the original post as I make them, and alphabetize them. I started with this one. :-)

Oh, sorry. I think it's because LJ changed the URLs. Does it work now?

Stellar! luludi February 4 2006, 00:39:13 UTC

The icons are OK now. To which I have a few more to add:

Camaron de la Isla
Montse Cortez
Saban Bajramovic
Lole Montoya
La Susi

This will be one impressive line-up, maybe others besides Luna & me will make suggestions :-)

Re: Stellar! szenovei February 4 2006, 05:18:22 UTC

There are a few others that I'm not sure about like El Nino Josele and Estrella Morente. Maybe you know better than I? :-)

Re: Stellar! lunar_rainbow February 4 2006, 05:46:20 UTC

Estrella's father is non-Gypsy, (payo, Castillano, etc.)
Her mother is a Gitana.

Not sure bout the other. I'll ask Luludi.

Re: Stellar! lunar_rainbow February 4 2006, 05:57:44 UTC

From Luludi: El Nino Josele's real name is Juan José Heredia Heredia, (yup, 2) and he is a Gitano.

Great Selection! lunar_rainbow February 4 2006, 04:50:54 UTC

Very impressive, and we know this hardly scratches the surface. We've got some talented people, we do!

Thanks!

Re: Great Selection! szenovei February 4 2006, 05:05:51 UTC

Yes, it's quite amazing looking at them like that, isn't it? It makes me smile. :-)
