A new icon post over at my graphics journal:

55 SG-1
05 Babylon 5

PLEASE NOTE: Some of the icons on the page are made from promo photos released by MGM for the upcoming movies. There is a possible spoiler in the first row of icons. Personally, I don't think it counts since it's taken from a promo photo but I know some folks are allergic to anything that has a whiff of spoiler.

(Post of 69 icons, total)

I've posted 112 icons in celebration of International Blog Against Racism Week at my icons LJ, here:

http://community.livejournal.com/isapiens/5911.html

54 of them are new; the rest are ones I made in the past.

The point of the post was to cover as many fandoms as possible rather than cover any fandom outside of my own (Stargate, Dark Angel) well. Fandoms represented: Andromeda, Babylon 5, Battlestar Galactica, Criminal Minds, CSI, CSI: NY, Dark Angel, Doctor Who, Dresden Files, Eureka, Firefly, Heroes, Lost, SG-1, SGA, Torchwood, Witchblade, Sin City, and Will Smith. Yes, Will Smith is a fandom unto himself.

(I've included several icons made for challenges but then rejected in favor of "better" icons using the same cap. I like seeing how an icon maker "thinks" by looking at process. If this is annoyingly repetitive let me know and I will limit future posts to just the better ones.)

The loss of my Photoshop hard drive slowed me down but since I had backups of my most often used stuff and a detailed list of resources, I was able to get back the stuff I most needed. I'm still missing my screen cap collection like mad. My older collection of SG-1 caps were stored on a separate HD that didn't fail. Thus? Lots of SG-1 icons and icons made from caps provided by various challenges.

Some of the SG-1 icons have been inspired by conversations with my LJ friends. The Daniel icons probably won't be overly popular this time around but after a discussion over at riverfox's LJ about the way that his glasses frame our perception, pardon the pun, of the character, I wanted to celebrate his glasses. Or lack thereof. Also likely to lack an audience are the Daniel/Sam icons but after moonshayde wrote about getting flames for writing incest because she posted a Daniel/Sam story...well, I started seeing it again in some of my caps so I went with it.

50 Stargate - mostly SG-1, a couple of SGA

06 Battlestar Galactica

30 SG-1
20 Dr. Who
14 Torchwood (Spoilers through all of Season 1)
05 John Barrowman

I loved the penultimate episode of Torchwood. *sigh* It's Captain Jack Harkness who keeps me watching even when the show fails to live up to its potential; John Barrowman has magnetism to spare. This wasn't meant as a, "I ♥ John Barrowman," post, but I now realize that's what it has become.

There's a joke, "The last thing I learned in college was bridge," and I'm thinking that bridge:college :: selective color:Photoshop. It's just so much damned fun to play with, though getting too wild with it degrades image clarity, making the pic go grainy. I'm fully aware of the frequent abuse of this nifty keen feature; hopefully I've limited the radioactive abominations to just a few. Perhaps some day soon my honeymoon with selective color will be over but until then, consider yourself warned.

My well of icon-fu was dry for the longest time. I'd open Photoshop, crop a pic, and mutilate it into the ugliest damned square possible before throwing my hands up in disgust, closing everything, and wandering off to do something less annoying. Like listen to talk radio. *grin*

I have no idea why a bunch of Jessica Alba promo pics got me back in the groove...but they did. *shrug* They were fun to play around with and a couple even placed in the stillness community where I got the pics. Go me. Anyhow, my need to jump start my lagging icon-fu led me to looking far and wide for inspirational caps -- thus the smörgåsbord of fandoms here.

Lots of experiments in this batch -- many are a departure from my usual style but lately I've been playing. I wanted to get this posted before I leave town in a week. Thus, it isn't well-balanced amongst characters/shows or very many icons. *shrug*

Comments are treasured. Credit is nice but I don't really care; just don't be a dork and claim you made them, please. I keep my icons in my LJ Scrapbook if you want to browse by character/show.

One final icon, though it is not shareable:
Made for jalabert's brilliant SGA AU slash story, My Fair Liar.
It has a movie poster, too, which was original artwork done by deani_bean.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, paddies! Looking at your work always gives me a smile, which explains why you dominate my user pics. I hope your birthday has been an excellent one.

As a Stargate fan, I've learned that homage is the sincerest form of flattery, thus the rest of this post. I've been teaching myself more about Photoshop via tutorials and making icons. Here are some of the results.

The usual thing is to ask for comments and credit. I don't much care about credit so long as nobody claims them as their own work. Use as you see fit otherwise. Constructive criticism is welcome since that's the only way I'll improve.

I have a lot more icons but posting this table was a pain because I kept changing my mind and added to the table after it was generated. I doubt I'll be posting this way again. If you're bored, I stashed my icons in my LJ Scrapbook. I had a lot of fun with Teal'c's Tally of Dead, False Gods. He strikes me as a guy who would keep count.

Not everything in my Scrapbook is snag-able as I made many for jalabert only. Those galleries/icons are labeled as, "not shareable," so please respect that. Otherwise, they're fair game.
