RHYME & REASON.
Graphics and character development. There's a concept! All icon posts will be f-locked. My personal posts regarding RL or role play is generally filtered, so no need to worry about me spamming your f-list. :)




GRAPHICS GUIDELINES.
Do not hotlink. Or I'm-a cut you.
After having grabbed a couple icons? A comment should be close behind.
Credit would be fantastic.
→As far as role play characters go, this doesn't have to be in the comment. Go ahead and put it in your character's info, but make sure I'm mentioned somewhere.
ADD THIS JOURNAL. Call me anal, but for some reason I just like having the numbers of my Friends and Friends Of match up. ... Yeah, don't judge me.




WRITER'S RIGHTS.
Any and all renderings of characters, whether derived from those created by JK Rowling or of my own invention, belong to dalekk. Dunsteel.

BANNED LIST

I've finally got around to it, so here's presenting my "God, no, I will never icon these people for you, evereverEVER" list, so that in the event that I do take requests, you know what not to ask for. :D
The reasoning for the following? Uh, actually, it has nothing to do with me being a cruel celebutante/scenester h8er, y0. I just feel that they really have no place in most role plays, except maybe celeb RPs. And I don't exactly endorse those. Scenesters are fine in my books, just not at Hogwarts.

For the many and sundry passerby who wonder what it is I'm capable of. It's roughly a lot of cropping, sharpening, and levelling for your convenience, but don't take my word for it. Here are a hella lot of samples so you can see for yourself. :D

( we all know there is nothing we like more than watching the wizards rocking out like this! )

My 30 gig iPod Video has been acting up lately (skipping songs, randomly spazzing out and not responding when I try to go to the menu/switch songs/pause, etc.), so I finally gave in and went to restore it.

And now I'm getting the fucking 1418 error, with the annoying Autoplay window and all that jazz.

Tried everything I could find on Teh Netz (updating the USB drivers, re-registering the .dll files, and unplugging/replugging the USB during the restore), but nothing works. Don't really have the time to take it into Apple, and apparently a couple people have also been having this issue recently, as well.

Ideas? :/ I NEED MY MUSIC, YO.

Hey, guys! I just wanted to let you all know that I will be continuing to make icons, but I'll be posting them over at dalek @ insanejournal. All of my old icons will continue to be archived here, but all of my new icons will be posted there.

Happy Christmas!

To quote Harrison, THIS IS AN OUTRAGE.

But I'm over it. Since my other public post didn't go through, my CDJ is now going to be over at IJ via ~heyjude. Haven't decided if I'm going to repost all of my icons over there or not, but I'll try and keep everyone updated.

My computer finally died, so I've hooked up my room one to the internet in the living room. Sigh.

To that end, could anyone send me PSP? I don't have it on this computer (I think I originally got it from .. Marie. Whoa, that was a long time ago), and otherwise I think I'm going to have to stop making icons. Gah.

On a lighter note, I'm going to Disneyland tomorrow! WHOOOOOOO.

( computer halp )

EDIT: also, i really miss my brigid wenlock (angly), despite ... y'know, never having actually played her. but i really got into writing her up and blah.

DOUBLE EDIT: okay, it's looking like the problem is firefox. i've tried downloading stuff on IE, and it works just fine. but i've tried uninstalling and reinstalling firefox, and it's still being problematic. thoughts?

-- I think I'm officially obsessed with ATU.
-- Which I am seeing again tomorrow morning.
-- It is extremely good. Weak writing and a little choppy at the beginning, but it's a Beatles musical with an exceptional cast. How can I not like that?
-- I also made 50+ Jim Sturgess icons, even though he basically has the same expression in all of them.
-- I can't wait until the DVD comes out so I can make some of Joe Anderson.
-- Marilyn Manson, for the record, still scares me.
-- I should probably go to bed now.

dear jim and joe,

y'all can cross my universe whenever you want.

love, jen.

PS, 5000+ hits. whooooo!
sunni, i hope you documented the actual number.

OKAY, I really need to stop with the YAY CHARACTER OVERLOAD! thing. screwthemod is due to start soon, so I'm going to be preoccupied with that, plus my usual Aude/VP activities and keeping up with iconning. Which means it's time for yet another round of Character List Clean Up.

- Unfortunately, that means no Trix for the time being (silly rabbit!). As much as I'd like to do another Doctor Who RP, it's just silly to pick up more characters when I have more on my plate than I really have time for. I'll probably try again in a couple weeks, if I'm still really itching to play her.
- I think I'm still apping for Lisa at compitum, if only because I've been dying to join that game forever.
- I'm not so sure about Edgar anymore, even though I was so fired up about playing him at first; for whatever reason, I'm having trouble thinking of stuff for him to do. I'll have to keep thinking about that one.
- DEFINITELY keeping Tonks, Abbie, Sophie, and Crystal. Rhia's going to shoot me in the face, but Jos is a maybe for the moment. I've kind of gotten out of touch playing him, much as I love him.
- If/when unconquered comes back, I'm not sure I'm going to want to keep Keiran. If Brigid gets accepted, I might want to play her and just see what that's like, though it'll be weird having two Irina PBs at once.
- I'm tentative about keeping Loki at STU. I haven't even necessarily finished his profile yet, so I have to mull that one over.

Thoughts, suggestions, etc.? Input's always a good thing to have.

screwthemod

I am now officially a co-mod! Hurray! Essentially a mythology game with a twist (in the vein of omg_ess, but with some plot tweaking), I am REALLY looking forward to this. Lynn, Kas, and Shay are all FANTASTIC players, to say nothing of their respective mod abilities, so it's going to be awesome. I'd love for everyone to go ahead and take a look.

PEE ESS: I just noticed that out of the held/taken characters, I'm playing the only girl. Every girl in the Greek, Egyptian, and Norse pantheons is open (save Psyche and Hathor, but Hathor's turned into a girl), so. Obvsly you should all look into Athena/a Valkyrie/Isis, etc. :D

213 icons of Sherri Dupree thisaways! So much thanks to pronto, without whom I would've never gotten all those pictures.

Jos is going to go batshit crazy, if only because of the "I CAN HAS FOODS NAO?!?!?!" jumping on couches Tom Cruise style he will be doing. If someone gives him a Vespa, he will drive it into a hotel.

There are also three alternatives as to what direction his life will be taking. Either he can continue with his music and become super famous (as little indie bands are wont to do these days?), stick with the music and go down with the ship, or just say "Screw it" altogether and be a lazy ass in Vegas with Tony & Co. Whatever way he goes, there will be a lot of rofls on my part.

Rhiana, Juliette needs to come to Aude now, kthnx.

As for Crystal, she needs to have a really pathetic crush on someone right about .. now. Probably unrequited, because actually getting into a relationship would make her head explode. Kind of like if she ever saw a donkey show. She kind of reminds me of Charlotte in regard to her reluctance to be exposed to Teh Inappropriateness, except she's generally smarter. And not Catholic.

( geek fest! daleks, star wars, and heroes, oh my! )

i also saw andy samberg, the blue power ranger, and noel clarke, but no pics. damn people move too fast. D:

isalowe for VP!
