lots of random icons

[jennickels]

I'm bored.  Should be working on a fic that's due tonight but... I'm watching Lilo & Stitch instead (with my 6yo and 1yo) and updating my icons.  So here's a post with a bunch of icons I've made over the last...whenever.  Most are from oneill_icontest but there are others from various challenges all over LJ.  And some I made just because.

Preview:


there are Stargate SG-1 (14 Sam/Jack, 30 Sam, 29 Jack, 3 Jack & Daniel, 8 other), Stargate Atlantis (12), SGU (8), Farscape (1), Firefly (8), Bones (1), Angel (1), Star Wars (5), general writing (3), random real life (24)

Sam icons I made for colls last summer (not snurchable unless she doesn't care)








lots and lots of Jack icons!









Jack and Daniel icons


Daniel


Cam


other SG-1 icons


random SGA icons




some SGU icons

Feel free to take any you'd like, even the kiddie ones (if they pertain to you).  Credit of course.

Oh these are all so beautiful! I think my favourite has to be 'double your pleasure'! XD

Thanks. I like that one too. Just the thought of two Jacks...mmmmmmm.

What filters are you using? I love the colors on them. I'm curious about your favorite features etc (I use Photoshop, not sure if that's what you're using too)

[jennickels.livejournal.com]

For which ones?

I use Photoshop Elements (I have 7 at the moment). I have two plugins I use most of the time and just started using textures and stuff (thanks to a challenge at a comm).

This is one I use a lot to do coloring: http://www.redpawmedia.com/processfx.html

And this one: http://www.optikvervelabs.com/virtualphotographer.asp I use for a ton of effects.

Those are the two I use on almost every icon I make. Then I use some other techniques I've picked up doing scrapbooking. And now with textures that I either make or download.

*sigh* Yeah, I had a favorite too buuuuut...I'm on a Mac. I wish I knew where to find some really great plug ins for a Mac :P I know they're out there, but I've struggled with finding them. I have Elements 9 - so I've been having to fake my way through icon making, but it hasn't been as much fun without my nifty filters (my PC is craptacular - slow, can't handle graphics and a screen the size of a postage stamp) - Guh.

Maybe you can go to the Adobe site and ask around. Or a message board for Mac and Elements users. I'm sure someone out there knows which plug-ins work for a Mac.
