I'm moving to a brand new address so all my latest updates will be found in one place.


Please re-join/watch when you get there. Not only will I be posting graphics, but also fanfiction and other cool things.

Thank you all! ♥

In all randomness, to celebrate the fact that I have pretty blonde hair now (squee!), I'm in the mood to make some random icons! So, here's the deal: First 15 people who comment will get 3 icons each and you must give me 3 images (don't let me choose, I go off on tangents). Choose any image/screencap you'd like and I'll make it up into icon form.

And yes, I realise I have large batch requests from waaaaay back when which I haven't done - those ones will be done soon. I've lost some links thanks to my computer having a spack attack. Sorry! All shall be fixed soon.

88 icons (from 1x01 & 1x02)

Just doing a bit of personal pimping here, but I do have a separate screencapping livejournal -- xcaptura -- and if you would like to see updates on my media posted there, please join or watch the community. I've already posted some Hex, Dark Angel and various music videos. This is my latest addition to the gallery:

Sarah Connor Chronicles - Ep 1 AVI -- 624x352 1,639 caps

A brand new layout featuring none other than the beautiful Billie Piper! Come and check it out. Also, feedback is love.

With the current success of my brushes (thanks everyone!), I thought I should branch out into other things and if the feedback is good, I'll continue with some tutorials every now and then. My first tutorial will be one from my recent icon batch and was made in Photoshop CS3 (but is probably workable through all versions of Photoshop). And now, without further ado, you can learn how to get the colouring on the following icons (and yes, they're the same technique):

( Tutorial #1 )

10 pushing daisies
10 hex
15 catch & release
10 national treasure
