So, this extra icons for long-time paid members thing. About as wise as handing me a jar of peanut butter and a spoon :)

First off, I dug out two old icons of mine that I'd loved but had to consign to the nether reaches of my hard drive:

and

The first was a gift from [livejournal.com profile] bear, because I was AngstGirl and my angst was 95% Rey-flavoured, and the second was a gift from [livejournal.com profile] tobiascharity, from back when I was exsanguinating courtesy of a massive fibroid.

Then I downloaded a kinder, gentler GIF animation program, and finally managed to get this icon in under 40K! Happiness.



Celebrated by watching it go over and over and over and over again, and picturing my fandom-love fellow Sr. Editor as the target. I think I may have anger issues.

Then, using the handy-dandy new animation program, I made another animated icon with text by [livejournal.com profile] mistful, from her mockumentary of Harry Potter Goblet of Fire:



Incidentally, that's the same lady who wrote the mocksummary of Troy that resulted in my "But baby" icon, a few months ago:



Filmockery of Goblet of Fire
Filmockery of Troy
Filmockery of Prisoner of Azkaban, while we're at it ;)

Deciding two HP icons were too few, I went and made some more:



That last was actually mostly done by Daniel. My baby's first icon. ::sniff::

Having had enough of the Potterverse, I turned to another obsession of mine, despair.com. Decided that two despair.com icons,

and

were too paltry a sampling of the hopeless beauty, and added

, , and .


::happy sigh::

BTW, not that I figure anybody will be interested, but if anybody does want any of the above icons, just drop me a line and go ahead and use 'em. Knock yourselves out ;)

I've missed your Rey icon! That was from when I first posted to T100+ and you were the first to comment.

ah, memories :)

I love the Hermione one, and the "What the f*** is going on?" Harry Potter one, but the animation is a titch too fast. May want to reduce the frame rate. Also if your art editing program has font anti-aliasing capabilities, you may want to use it, as the Potter font is very hard to read (especially at the speed it goes by).

I hadn't realized that with the Hermione one I'd actually uploaded the wrong GIF. Slowed the WTF is going on icon a bit. After having read it myself a hundred times while making the icon, I'm no longer a good judge of how long people need to read the words, especially with the wonky HP font.

Thanks!
