life in technicolor.
So. The last time I posted icons was March 16. More than 3 months ago.
I am incredibly sorry for that. The end of the school year is always super hectic for me because I'm on the varsity tennis team for my school and then teachers give you research papers and an exceptional amount of work in order to cram everything in. It is a nightmare. However, I managed to make a few icons here and there and so I have a modest post of about 130 icons. :)

Anyways, sorry for neglecting my icon-making duties! I assure you that I will post icons much more frequently this summer. :D

These icons are a little bit weird, probably because I've been experimenting a lot. I'm not sure how I feel about a good percentage of them.

This post contains: Angelina Jolie, Heath Ledger, Iron Man, Tomb Raider, Wanted, The Darjeeling Limited, and assorted movies and celebrities.

	Coldplay is the shit. And Viva La Vida might be their best album yet. :D :D :D :D (Reply to this) (Thread)

	pa_0205 2008-06-26 05:11 am UTC (link)
	Totally agree with both comments. I'm really loving Life in Technicolor. And Strawberry Swing. And every other song on the CD. Viva La Vida is probably my favorite song by them. I'm still debating between that, Swallowed in the Sea, and Don't Panic though. It is something that I will never completely decide upon. ;) (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Miriam! ♥ Your icons, as always, are so beautiful. I love the experimentation and the summery bursts of colour and the subtle touches of text. The Heath batch in particular is so quirky and eye-catching and bold, I love it. Wanted looks pretty cool! James McAvoy is such a cutie. Good luck with school's end and it's to great to hear from you! (Reply to this) (Thread)

Hey! It's great to hear from you as well! Thank you so much for your compliments, I really appreciate you taking the time to comment on my icons! I am extremely flattered by the lovely things you wrote about my icons. *hugs* P.S. I just finished school last week and I'm really enjoying all this relaxation. ;) P.P.S. I agree, James McAvoy is such a cutie. He's one of my favorites. ;) (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I came for the Iron Man icons, but, you know what, I love the Darjeeling Limited ones! I'm glad you posted them. That movie also rekindled my Adrien Brody adoration. ;) Anyway, I'm definitely snagging some of the Darjeeling icons, and of course, I'll credit you. Lovely work! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	pa_0205 2008-06-26 05:04 am UTC (link)
	Awww...thanks! You don't know how happy your comments made me! I really enjoyed the movie and I totally fell back in love with Adrien Brody. I used to have a big thing for him back when King Kong came out... Anyways, thank you so much for the lovely compliments! I'm glad you liked the icons! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Thank you very much! And you know what? I actually did use a watercolor effect in Photoshop on quite a few icons, although it's pretty subtle. You have a good eye. :) I really appreciate your comments, thanks again! :) (Reply to this) (Parent)

	GUH THE COLORING IS GORGEOUS. AS WITH THE CROPPING. AND YES, COLDPLAY'S NEW ALBUM IS FTW AND STRANGELY ADDICTING. i've listened to "yes" and "death and all of his friends" at least three times in a row now. XD (Reply to this) (Thread)

	pa_0205 2008-06-26 01:40 pm UTC (link)
	Thank you so much! You have no idea how much those compliments mean to me! :) And OMG. I agree, Viva La Vida is definitely STRANGELY ADDICTING, so much so that it deserves caps. :) And I love "Yes" and "Death and All His Friends" so much. I love the second part of "Yes" as well, it is so intense. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Thanks for your comments and I'm glad you like the icons! I always try to do something extra to an icon because while I love making simple icons, I always feel like I'm being lazy or something, or not unique enough, you know? P.S. I LOVE YOUR ICON. :D (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Thanks! I think The Darjeeling Limited is the only movie I've seen by Wes Anderson, but I've heard that The Royal Tenanbaums (That's what it's called right?) is also really good. :D I'm going to make more Darjeeling icons, so stop by again. ;) (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)
