Happy New Year


Hope you all had a very good start into 2009! :)

I bring you something I made while I was trying out some brushes and blending options in PS. I hope someone likes it. As always, I couldn't delete it.

Have fun reading! :)

It's been a while since I posted my last set of icons. I've been in a pretty creative mood lately, and made some icons, mostly stock ones because I love those, which I want to share. :) I'm quite proud of #1, #3, #7 and #13. I love the way they came out. Especially the coloring.
Btw, I snagged the "Tonight You" text for the Edward Norton icon from the LJ community capslock_spn. I don't know, but every time I see it it cracks me up like whoa.

Okay, now on to the goodies:

[01-15] Stock (pigs, big cats, kitten, wolves etc.)
[16-18] Jared Leto
[19-20] Miscell (1xAlan Rickman, 1xEdward Norton)

Teaser:

We	aim to	tease. :)

I was bored and made 3 new texture sets. Hope you like them!

Ooookay, righto, here I am back with another rather small set of Bleach icons. This time it's a mostly Grimmjow themed set, because - well yeah I love my evil arrogant Grimmkitty! :)

I promised kishirepantera a Grimmjow put the sex into Sexta icon, but I haven't got around to make one yet. All I came up with so far is a 149x112 animated gif that can be put on the user info or on the sidebar of one's layout. I hope you like it!

I also wanted to welcome all the new people on my flist! *waves* And my little sister, reinanii, who joined LJ a few weeks ago. :)

But now, on to the icons:

Bleach icons:

Whoohoo I finally finished working on my new Grimmjow themed layout! Har har. This time I used basic codes by minty_peach. In other words I took this particular layout and modified it to my wishes.

The biggest problem I had to work out, was how to get some of my backgrounds transparent. I tried it with opacity, but it didn't quite work out the way I wanted it to. That was where the LJ community s2flexisquares came in handy. I searched through it and found a helpful entry.

How to reach transparency on entry backgrounds:
Basically you can reach transparency by creating a color filled image in PS, setting it to 80% opacity and then lay it on top of a transparent background. Merge the layers, save it and upload it to an image hosting site and then use that image as a background. That's it. Really simple, ne?!

I only tested the layout in Firefox, my sister told me it looked fine in Opera too. I don't know what it looks like in other browsers though. That's why I'm asking you, if you use a different browser, could you please tell me if the layout looks like this or somehow wonky? That would be absolutely lovely of you!

Oh and I also made my very first wallpaper/background. I always wanted a Grimmjow layout and I loved that sexy silhouette!Grimm image ever since I first saw it, so I thought why not make a background from it.

I like to share:

Here are 3 new sets I made. Hope you enjoy!

Today, after months of lurking around deviantart I finally got myself an account there. I don't know why I'm always so hesitant to join a site I really like. It has been the same with last.fm actually or livejournal. Before I got myself an account there, I spent months using and searching through those sites.

Whenever I frequent a site more than three times a week it's usually clear that I will join it in the end. So I can't understand why I always wait months before I do it. *lol* Strange me!

However, the reason to finally join deviantart was a piece of art I came up with while experimenting a bit with PS yesterday. I wanted to try out a few brushes and some colors and filters and the result I ended up with was rather pretty in my opinion, I really couldn't delete it (which I originally intended). I showed it to only_gremo and she said she liked it as well and she could imagine someone wanting to use it as a header or something. So I thought I could use my deviantart account (I'm also reijamira over there, I know I'm very inventive when it comes to names, heh) to share it.

I named it "Discovery" (Hah, again with the names) because Gremo said one can discover many things in it.

On another matter, I finally finished watching all episodes of Bleach there are so far (that makes 161). And I can only say if you are into anime and don't know Bleach yet, then you should consider watching it! I highly recommend it. It's awesome! Such an interesting plot! And so many sexy as hell characters! My two number one favorite charas are Kurosaki Ichigo, the main character, and Grimmjow Jaegerjaques an evil arrogant bastard. :) Those are just two characters I love but there are so many more. Have I mentioned that Bleach is my new fandom? Have I? I'm sure I have.

In case you are now curious as hell, here you can find more information on Bleach:

+ Wiki article about Bleach
+ bleachfan.de (German) Very good German site.
+ bleachportal.net (English) For everything Bleach related

I'm sure there are more sites out there but so far I've only checked out these ones. If you know one that I should know, please do tell me!

Yesterday I changed my layout. I really needed a change and I was in the mood for a darkish layout. So I made myself one. I'm pretty satisfied with it. For the background I wanted to have some sort of texture and after fiddling around with the PS filters I came up with something that looked fancy enough for my liking. I was a bit sad that I couldn't use the black font color for my entries because when I tested it it was really difficult to read people's posts. So I had to change it to a lighter grey that is much better on the eye and I really like it that way. If you took a look tell me what you think, would you? :)

Today I made some animated icons. I always wanted to learn how to make those. It was really fun working on the gif's. I intend to make more in the future. This time there are only three of them and all are from Bleach. Bleach is such an icon-able anime. I remembered those two scenes from the earlier episodes where Renji and Ichigo had those awesome slashy moments (Well they have them quite often in my opinion. *g*) and I always wanted to icon these scenes. I hope you like the results as much as I do.

And last but not least I also want to share my Bleach screencaps from episode 02, 03 and the Opening & Ending caps part 1.

It's Bleach goodie time. ^__^

First of the screencaps.

This is the 100th post! Congrats to - er - myself. To celebrate that meaningful event I bring some icons for presents. :)

I don't know why, but somehow I've been in a tiger-mood when I made these icons, that's why most of them are actually tiger icons.

But on to the goodies.

[01-12] Stock icons: animals (mostly big cats and one wolf)

Teaser:

We've	come	to tease.

( Hear them roaring. )

Today, I bring you the first set of a series of animal/baby animal icons I'm currently working on. I hope you like these as much as I do!

Also, since my little chat with jellybean_slash I've started listening to Christmas music and I also made a few Christmas icons.

[01-07] Stock icons: Christmas, winter
[08-26] Stock icons: animals (kitten, lions, dogs, puppies, pigs, etc.)


Teaser:

We	want	you!

( Wanna have more? )

Ookay, I finally finished my third icon batch I've ever made. I think I have somewhat improved since I've posted my last batch. :) Anyway, this time I not only bring you icons from SPN 3.03 but also my very first stock icons!

You will also notice quite a few icons of that Wayne guy from SPN 3.03. (Remember? The one who had that rather unpleasant encounter with the bbq fork.) I think he's really handsome. (Not as handsome as Jared, mind you, but he has something.) I noticed it when I made some icons of him. :)

So here we go:

[01-32] SPN 3.03 "Bad Day At Black Rock" -- POSSIBLE SPOILERS
[32-41] Stock icons (autumn, winter, animals)


Teaser:

We	wanna	tease

( Show me more. )

Whew, I just made my first animated icon! :)

It's from SPN 3.03 BDABR the I LOST MY SHOE scene.

I put it behind a cut because of possible spoilers.
