I just watched The Diving Bell & The Butterfly, an extremely beautiful film. Go watch it. Also watch 3:10 to Yuma.
And of course, go see The Dark Knight if you haven't already seen it. Although, judging by its phenomenal numbers, I'm sure you've already seen it at least twice. ;)

Wall-E!!! *flails* Sorry. I'll say something constructive.

The very last icon...is just about the most gorgeous thing I've ever seen. And the last Heath Ledger in the first row is amazing. Of course they're all excellent individually but those were the standouts. I love that you're continually working on your craft and experimenting. That's awesome.

Lol! I need to make more Wall-E icons! Just for you. :D I'll go find some more pictures today. :)

And wow. You have no idea how awesome your comment made me feel! That last icon is one of my favorites from this batch as well! :)

I love your icon btw. Mo was SO CUTE.

Thanks! That's nice to hear, especially since I'm always scared to use text for fear that it might not look good. :D

I know right! And honestly, I usually can't stand text on icons, but you totally made it work. I sorta think 12 would actually make just a fantastic text-only icon.

You have the eye for good word arrangement and colour choice, definitely.

Once again, it's so nice to hear that my text is looking good! :D
I'll have to make a text-only one of #12 and put it in the next post. ;) Maybe I'll do a set of TDK quotes like that...That would be kinda fun!

But anyways, I love your icon! Joker love. :D

Oh my god, I don't believe this. I have tried commenting twice now and both times my comment got deleted!!!! Grrrr, I hate my internet!

Okay, well what I've been trying to say is that I FREAKING LOVE YOUR ICONS!!!

My absolute absolute faves from this batch are : 9, 17, 30, 51, 65, 66, 74, 96, 109 and 111!

@30 - TOTALLY USING THIS ONE! Oh and btw, where do you get your Dark Knight pics from? I'm having a hard time finding good ones...
@51 - Possibly the most gorgeous icon of this cap I have ever seen! You made it look like a watercolour painting or something, just beautiful!
@65 - Your texture use is flawless and so original! Gah, HOW DO YOU DO IT?! :P
@96 - Cutest icon ever!

As always, your icons never fail to amaze :D

I feel you! It is so annoying! I start writing this nice long comment for you and then it all disappears. Here's to time wasted! :D

Anyways, I FREAKING LOVE YOUR ICONS TOO. Like your latest post. You posted like one of my favorite icons ever. That one Joker one is just absolute perfection. :D Well, actually the one that I am currently using. :D

But anyways, I'm glad you like the icons! And your comments put a big grin on my face! It's so nice to know which icons other people like a lot. :D

Oh btw, I'll just upload those Batman pictures for you because I got them off a post on [info]ohnotheydidnt and I would not be able to find it again lol.
Also, for #51, I actually used the watercolor filter, so you were spot on when you said it looked like a watercolor painting! I used that filter for a lot of the Atonement icons in this post, but it's more obvious in some than others.
I'll reply to this post with the pictures for you. :D

OMG. They're all gorgeous. And I especially love the Robbie/Coldplay one. It puts two of my favorite things together beautifully. Great job and I will definitely credit when I use them!!

I'm glad you like the icons! And I love that you noticed the Coldplay lyrics, that made my day. I thought that those lyrics just kinda fit with Atonement in general.
