Comedy icons + SGA Mckay/Weir event + Awards

I've been joining in the challenges at [livejournal.com profile] britcomicontest and wheee I won mod's choice for the Blackadder Queenie one! It's my first ever award for an icon. :massive grin: I know I'm not the best icon maker, still got plenty of practice before I master GIMP but yay, obviously doing something right with cropping at the very least.




Challenge #1 - Monty Python

Yes, I know the last one sucks. I did a much better version I was really proud of and got a crash on saving. :/

Challenge #3 - Blackadder: Queenie




Also, check out my few 4400 graphical efforts recently. There's some Jacqui McKenzie headers/banners in this folder that were intended for the Jacqui community but didn't get used. And...

Made as av requests, which included my deciding the promo picture they request didn't have the two quite close enough. Here's the manip link: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v230/missyvortexdv/myicons/TDotp.jpg

I also got my banner for my McKay/Weir 2007 Isis Award. :) I could never decide if that fic should have had more chapters. I had two more planned but hey people like it as is.



Also, spread the word (and/or join in, if you feel inclined) - McKay/Weir Love Fest

Congratulations on your icon mod choice :D I thought that one was pretty fab, I have to say! I can't wait for the Red Dwarf ones ;) And isn't it a fab Isis banner? Some of them have been very beautiful, yours is one of the best, congrats again on that win.
Excellent Diana/Tom manip.

I don't think I'll have time to do the red dwarf one this week sadly, plus I'm not overly inspired by the screenshots - or rather I have ideas for icons where I can't find the right way to do it to fit the concept in my head.

Yeah, the Isis banners are pretty. And congrats on your multiple wins, you did really well once again! :D
