Recs, anyone?

Hi!

I'm gonna be a demanding wench and say, I WANT SOME NEW ICONS! This makes me very sad to say, but since Lost is over I think a lot of my icons are, well, stale...they're still pretty and I still love them, but since I don't post about Lost much anymore I really don't need 200 Lost icons, huh?

So can some of you direct me to where I can find icons that are either pretty (or beautiful!), or have attitude sayings on them (WTF, M'KAY, HUH?, etc.), or ones that're just randomly appealing...ballet shoes, scenery, girly stuff...I dunno, anything that YOU think is worthy of having in an icon collection. Will anyone help me out? I'm using my special "please!" icon (which I will never part with) as an added incentive. ;) isn't he dreamy, y'all? never forget....nostalgic sigh.

Have you looked at the icons I've made? I think you have... if I make more would you be interested? (you can say "no, go away you bad icon maker you")

[alliecat8.livejournal.com]

You know I love your icons! I've got quite a few in my collection already! But I doubt I've seen all of them. I wouldn't know how to find them...do you keep them at a tag I can go to or something (yes, I'm a lazy-ass slacker, I could just go to your journal and look for myself but then we wouldn't be having a conversation and I like conversations.) ;)

I do have a tag as it happens! http://eponine119.livejournal.com/tag/icons

I probably have more I haven't posted. I'm gonna check out the links you got though... yay pretties.

ps, other icon makers sunlitdays obsessiveicons (fairy tales!!!) collapsingnight thirded roxicons couvade

[alliecat8.livejournal.com]

Yeah, no, I hadn't seen all of 'em, so thanks for the link! I know I saw the ones from our trip to New Orleans, but why on earth I didn't take the Peace Yall one I can't imagine. Of course I need that one in my collection! And the rest brought back memories...sigh.

I'm gonna snag the Peace one tomorrow 'cause I'm drooping tonight and on my way to bed, and I might take a few more. I promise to do the whole comment/credit thing! Nite, sweetie!

Oh wait, I forgot to answer your question. OF COURSE I'd love it if you made more. Pretty please?

I love icon_goddess, iconomicon, collapsingnight, and ummm...oh, jillicons.

[alliecat8.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I'm in an icon kind of mood so I'll go browse them now. ♥

[ozmissage.livejournal.com]

Some of my favorite makers are burgundy_shoes, watered_faith, mirrorskies, onsilverscreens, and orange_corner.

[alliecat8.livejournal.com]

Thank you! They have intriguing names; I will check them out right away! *smooch!*

I get a lot of my stock icons at stocked. There are some awesome icon makers who post there. Also love collapsingnight and colorvary.

[alliecat8.livejournal.com]

Oh, I adore stocked! They are now on my watch list. Coincidentally, rogueapprentice also recommended collapsingnight and I'd already joined, so that must be a popular one, and I love it! And I'm now watching colorvary too. I'm glad you chimed in because you have such marvelous taste in icons and I've ALWAYS wondered where you got them! *snickers - now I know your secret!*

Thanks, luv!

roxicons makes gorgeous icons. A lot of my stock icons are ones she's made.

[alliecat8.livejournal.com]

YES! roxicons was one I was looking for and couldn't think of the name of. I've admired those icons forever but could never remember their source when I wanted one, so thank you! You are my hero. :)

She hasn't made any icons in ages, and to be honest she doesn't have a very big collection, but I adore the style in these and have quite a few stacked away :)

Oh, yes, hers are lovely! I'm going to put her on my icon filter, mainly because of the travel and the Christmas ones...there's nothing wrong with taking icons that're a couple of years old, as long as they're still out there, is there?

[siluria]

Nothing wrong at all I think :) Especially as I have loads I saved years ago that occasionally get uploaded :)
