Gaius Shit, I need to get these things out more often.

There's 36 Battlestar Galactica icons (check icon battles for the rest), 84 Eternal Sunshine for the Spotless Mind, 50 Gossip Girl, and a varied assortment of random icons for your viewing pleasure. I tried to organize them in a way that made sense, but right now, I'm as confused as you are. So really, no worries. :)

OH! And I'm working on my very first picspam, the likes of which may break the interwebs. It's bright and happy and is of something that always makes me smile. I'm torn between posting a preview or just surprising you all with the insane amount of caps. In case y'all are STILL wondering, it's Beauty and the Beast. It's also up to 300+ caps that have been colorized and they've only just asked Belle to be the castle's guest. Yeah. I will kill the interwebs. :) [also, i just loaded the picspam. it takes a bit to load at work, but dude. the colors are like..... *flails* i've hugged my computer screen.]

The Good
- comments are love.
- credit if taking is love.
- suggestions are adama/roslin love.
- requests are BSG love.

The Bad
- please, no hot linking.
- please, don't use them as a base UNLESS you ask if it's ok.
- please, don't claim you made them yourself, because really, that makes baby Nicky cry.

OH! And for those who are wondering, I can finally start getting those requests out! :D Happy times!

[ALSO!!!! 9 DAYS!!!!!!!!!]

Ok, so I actually signed up for this CRAZY challenge over at i_episode, where you icon each episode of a show you like. I signed up for BSG, and while I'm no doubt crazy late to submit these, I started them, and thus, wanted to finish them. So there I go. It was FUUUUUUN. Albeit kinda psycho to do. I'd like to thank my BSG Fangirls for giving me some feedback on the first couple of seasons, and particularly wicked_g & xcelianax for icon beta-ing. And a shout-out to far_to_nowhere for cheering me on during the madness. Now, without futher ado, an Icon Maker's View of Battlestar Galactica. <3.

P.S. I tried my very best to not put Adama/Roslin in all of the icons. =P

Feel Free to take!!! :D

So.... I'm not going to lie. I didn't expect for it to take me this long to post these icons that I have made for various icon contets. In truth, I think it was part life getting in the way, part me just not buckling down to do it, but luckily, I was brave enough today! That's right kiddos, today was a good day! Anywho, I apologize for my lameness. Since figuring out about icon contests, I think I've entered an insane number. This particular batch includes those that I made that have already been voted on, or are openly submitted. While I still have some more that I've made that aren't included in this batch, don't worry, there should be another post soon-ish. :)

Also, these icons are split into three tables (BSG, Disney & Misc.). I've included LJ-Cuts on this main post to make it easier to go through. If you decide to take an icon, please just specify which table you got it from. And I ask that you fight the urge to scream it out a la Bingo announcer (BSG 42! BSG 42!). Ok, don't resist the urge. Really, I actually like Bingo. But that's neither here nor there.

Even if you decide not to take any, I'd love to hear feedback on them if you have a moment to give it. Because I find that REALLY helps me improve. Anywho, pardon the ramble. Now on to the icons!!!

P.S. I'm sorry about alien skin coloring on some of these. You've got to blunder a couple of times before you get it right! Also, please note, the ones that start off each contest group are earlier works. So if they're messed up compared to the later stuff, please don't black list me just because of it. THANKS!!! *HUGGLES*

HI!!!!

So this is what happenes when you get bored, and your fandom allows for The Dark Knight Icons.

Would love to hear your opinions!

Examples



( ... here we go! )

i think i got a bit... what's the word? oh yeah. obsessed with this show. *ahem* now, i know that i don't have to point out how awesome this episode is, but i had taken about 150 screencaps, and decided that they would make pretty icons for my batch two. i think i got to cap 60-something last night before i wisely gave into my pillow's advances and let it take me to sleepy land. {a wondrous place, i tell you}

anywho, got a couple of icons here that are out for me to fix the text so you could see them a bit clearer. plenty of variations, more so than last time, because photoshop keeps opening up and showing me all sorts of pretty filters, layers, etc. so please bare with me and my bsg-induced insanity.

now i know there was something else i wanted to say.... OH YEAH!

THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH!!!!

to anyone and everyone that found the time to comment, suggest, request, and all of that good stuff. it's meant sooo much to me, like you don't even know. i know i've ended up with some buddies from the comments, and replies, and comments, and replies {and so on, and so forth}. and now i'm rambling on and on. point is, THANKS SO FRAKKIN' MUCH!!!

*sets up booth with "free hugs!" sign*

now then, zee icons.

( the rest of the ikohns! )

i blame the awesomeness that was "the hub". generally going on an adama/roslin spin. the ones with words on them are horribly corny. also, not done. sadly, it seems that i've decided to make 16 icons out of each screencap. i'd like to apologize in advance. for right now, it's going to be "posted" on my friends list, but open for all to see.

( icons! thanks so much scarecrow1983!!!! *GLOMPS* )


- if you take one, credit would be nice.

- textless ones are icons, not bases.

- let me know what you want it for and you can use it as one if you'd like.

- not done with all.

- yes, i too hope that practice will make perfect and my icons will come out nicer and all that jazz.

Made 24 Crash Into Me Bases. :)

Figured out how to do the cut! Go check them out! :)
Feel free to add text/effects/whatever.
If you think that people might enjoy these "bases", just let them know where you got them. I also posted them at dmb_icons.
