I've been making these off and on. They started off meaning to be more Press Gang, or Children's Lit and ended up totally random.

Want, take, credit. Not hotlinking. Comments always appreciated! Most of the backgrounds are mine but texture credits as follows: 4 (Shabby Princess),8 (?) & 11 (leilax@the preamble), 28/27 (crazykira_resources).

I laughed at #23 and #27!

[thisbluespirit]

:-) Thanks!

23 - Space directives rarely fail to be funny. I should do more some time.

27 - one of my fave B7 exchanges (must do Avon's line, too):

Avon: I've never understood why it should be considered necessary to become illogical to prove you care.
Vila: Was that an insult, or did I miss something?
Cally: You missed something.

[persiflage-1.livejournal.com]

LOL Poor Vila!

Many good ones, and I only have passing familiarity with some of these shows.

[thisbluespirit]

Heh, thanks! I like to think a good random quote is just as fun out of context, but of course, you can't guarantee that when you do know the context. :-)

I'm ridiculously jealous of your pretty fonts and textures.

[thisbluespirit]

Aw, thanks!

As you can probably see, a lot of them are just me playing around with backgrounds, but the extra bits and bobs, including a lot of the fonts, I found via this blog so you needn't be jealous - you can have them, too.

I joined icon_tutorial and I am picking up some hints - and links like that one. (And learning that I do not have the patience to achieve some effects, ever. :lol: I would rather write than spend that amount of time layering a 100x100 image!)

How did I miss these? LOL ROS.

I love some of the Carry On ones too. Am a sucker for a pun *g*

[thisbluespirit]

:-)

Thanks! I'm sure there will be more. I love quotes!

Taking #23 and #29. (POCKET STUFF EPICS YES. ;D)

[thisbluespirit]

Wow, you are really going through my icon posts!! :-) Eek, the Chesterton one could do with redoing to make it actually, well, readable. And, aw, Red Dwarf.

[justice-turtle.livejournal.com]

...it could, yeah. XD Please let me know if you do that?

[thisbluespirit]

Yes, I don't know why I uploaded it, I can see it was a lot older than even the rest of this batch. Here, try this - at least it's a tad more legible:

And then I took 6, 11, and 15 as well. :D

And 13 and 14. :D
