**11 This style I first saw with [livejournal.com profile] psychofilly. If you like it, I urge you to look through her work, which is stunning and funny and I don't get why I don't see it everywhere. :)

I've wanted to play with it forever but did not because it was identifiably "hers" and she's so much better at it than I. I recently found out she has retired from fanart in favor of original works of art so now I'm indulging my love of circles since she isn't around to indulge me.

Thank you; that means a lot coming from an excellent graphics maker. :)

My one real regret at joining the LIMS is that I spend so much time trying to come up with a single icon for the week that I end up shortchanging Jack. I was fresh out of ideas about the time I started on the LIMS but now I'm actively missing him. I think I'm not much longer for the LIMS as it's down to stiff competition with people whose skills exceed mine.

Hee! Resistance is futile; you shall be assimilated. That cap was golden; the McShep is strong in that one and a lot of people made some excellent icons from it.

Torri would make an excellent superhero! I'd love to see her given the opportunity to cut loose on screen. Maybe she'll get a juicy part on Heroes? I love more than just your dolphin/Atlantis -- your icons are always refreshingly original and make me smile -- but that's the one I mentally bookmarked as MINE. :)

You know what I like about this icon *points*? If you look closely, you can see his appendectomy scar just above his boxers! Just what Jack was hoping to see. ;)

I'll be making more icons for certain -- the source material is just too much fun to play with but everything I was making all kind of looked the same and some of the icons were pretty lousy so I decided to take a break and clear my head. (Or, you know, retrieve my brain puddle from the floor and try to re-solidify it after staring at pics of MS in his knickers.) [livejournal.com profile] magnavox_23 and [livejournal.com profile] paian have played with the images as well and come up with some very hot icons!

I don't know about the others, but I love, love, love the one I snagged from you. *beams* The McShep is strong, indeed. Hee!

Thank you muchly :-*
funny you mentioned that.. i just joined three LIMS comms this week, and i've been staring at the caps since last night and coming blank.. it would be embarrassing for me to get killed from the first round on my very first try on LIMS, lol :)

LIMS has a whole set of pressures that a weekly contest does not. I don't have to choose just one Jack and live or die by that choice. SO much less pressure. My Jack well of ideas had run very, very dry about so I figured a break wouldn't hurt but I had no inkling it would take all of my creative energies. I have no earthly idea how you're taking part in 3 of them at once. One is all that I can handle. :|

I have faith that you'll come up with something brilliant and be spared the embarrassment of being eliminated in the first round, though some of my favorite icon makers, [livejournal.com profile] pumahmistress and [livejournal.com profile] obaona struck out early in this LIMS so I've learned to take it as "this icon isn't for this audience."

May inspiration strike! Best of luck to you! :)

Theres a lot of pics at his website www.danpaynefans.net (http://www.danpaynefans.net) and some at the forum :)

That's incredibly nice of you. Attitudes like that make fandom a wonderful place.

I have found fandom on LJ to be a generally wonderful and happy place. :)

I've finished the tutorial and posted it over at my graphics LJ, here:

If anything is unclear - hey, it makes sense in my head but translating it to writing is an iffy thing - don't hesitate to ask. *hugs*

I have Dan Payne photos from NJ 2006 here:

http://www.mishtopia.com/pics/thumbnails.php?album=105
&
http://www.mishtopia.com/pics/thumbnails.php?album=110

I really need to get back to sorting through my photos and posting them. I have tons from that con that I haven't posted. :|

I meant to go back and get the Dan photos again but since everything was wiped out, literally YEARS of collecting pics, I've only been grabbing caps as I had reason to so I haven't yet gotten back to recollecting Dan's pics. So much to do, so little free time.

[identity profile] wive.livejournal.com 2007-07-11 01:07 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm so sorry to tell you this, but.... I hate you! *pouts*
I the clarity you got on 7, 10 (love the crop too) & 16.
I'm having some problem with getting mine that clear.
They are all lovely, but an extra + for #20, Ronon looks even more gorgeous in that one.

Hugs!

[identity profile] hsapiens.livejournal.com 2007-07-11 02:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Onoz! This cannot be! ;)

7 & 16 were made from an ultra high quality source pic. That makes ALL the difference because you can't manufacture what isn't there and lower-res pics lose detail when you shrink them. I DO spend a lot of time smoothing after I sharpen the reduced image but that level of clarity is possible only with the best quality source material.

*huggles*

I will have to have a look at those photos :P lol
