You know sometimes at some point in your life you liked something and later it goes away? It's my belief that it all comes in phases. And I'm sometimes so easy in my addictions.

Anyway, here comes trivia, when I was little, my mum used to knit. And while knitting she would watch a lot of TV. TV meaning not only things like McGuyver, Chips and Star Trek but also a whole lot of german and american daytime television. The usual suspects were California Clan, General Hospital and Falcon Chrest as well as Lindenstraße, Unter uns and Verbotene Liebe.

Somehow, we are discussing Smallville ;)

Waaaaazaaa!!! I am the dust bunny destroyer! They are all gone gone gone!!!!! Yes, I'm fine! I finally, after two weeks, decided it was a good idea to pull out the vacuum cleaner. Well actually, the decision was made before, but I kept shoving it off! And now, clean clean clean.

I watched an episode of Smallville last week and I have to say, ( this... )

• There were means to save all your lj entries discussed. Can anyone refer me to something? Also, how do I use several journals on my semagic?
• I'm also considering using wordpress on ex-posed.com just so it's easier to update!
• Also, I got my mom hooked on Jericho! She just agreed to a ten-minute sneak-peek. Well. Three episodes! *cough*
• I read this absolutely brillient fic yesterday (McShep, naturally): Decreasing Radii by cathalin. It's long, it's angsty, and totally awesome!
• 40 amazing free fonts.
• A page curl in photoshop
• Terminator;: The Sarah Connor Chronicles have probabnly been picked up!!!
• Friday Nigh Lights got sort of picked up as well
• charlidos brings Jason and Joe and that picture is so gorgeous. And has possibly been taken by Jasons mom!
• Also, I've been waiting for ages for someone to create a music vid to The Klaxons: Atlanis to interzone and omg, this such a fast frantic song and the vid that was created omg that is just sad, because it totally isn't.

1-39: Stargate Atlantis
40: Michael Rsoenbaum/Smallville
41-42: Supernatural
43-56: Veronica Mars
57: Farscape
58-60: Lucky Luke
61-63: Harry Potter, GoF
64-71: Muse
72: Richard Bona

So, I'm really excited about this icon post cos there are some recent experiments in there I made last and this weekend that I'm really proud of. Then, there are icons I made ages and ages ago, a long time, really. This is ALL the rest I have been sitting on, except for the requests. Some icons are are from request sets.. Signe and Kate might recognize them :)

And as you can see, I'm a bit addicted to SGA. And white space.

( icons )

Well, I've been asked for a tutorial for the Pink Lana aliens and icons. and well, I'm way too lazy ight now too write a full-blown tutorial on this. And considering I was just playing around, it would be damn hard to retrace my steps.

So I'm putting the photoshop file up for download. Might not work under Version 7.0. I don't know... the adjustmentlayers might not appear.
Anyways, the zip includes 2 files which show how different things can be with the same materials. Same layyers you can blend in to see changes... or blend out.

I hope you will have fun with this.



download zip


And comment if you download.

This will be rather random, just because. Every time an email arrives in my inbox, I get totally panicked. Reason is, I sent an email application to a screendesign job I really really want. So wish me luck. Pleeeeaaaaaaase.

My whole sorta almost jobless situation is making me not only cranky, but is stiffling my creativity. Which I hate. I should really post when I have my mind on the topic instead of doing it like this.

I've been meaning to rec a few SGA fics I liked. I did rec 2 the other day, but here's some more I read recently and really liked a lot.

Recs:
Linguistics by stillane
Which wins with this line alone: When John wants something hidden, it’s never there to begin with. And seriously, the whole thing is like this poetic and hinting.

Bell Curve or Ladies Night at the Boom boom Room by rageprufrock
Not just because the title rocks, but because it just is such a fun ride. And it is huge-ass long.

The One And Only Way Rodney Would Actually Let John by raqs
It's sort of pwp and extremely real. And hilarious. At leat I thought so.

Cartography by Touch by rageprufrock This is a wonderful story. About John and rape. I loved it... I just like how she slowly shows you what's realyl going on. But ti's Pru...so it can't really be anythign less than stellar. Please keep in mind that all those recs are slash... and might even be NC-17. And now to some meaningless thoughts about TV-shows. Atlantis!!! I miss you!! I will ahve to recycle you soon.

( Veronica Mars- Wallance anf the White Castle )
( Smallville Vengeance )
( Lost- the charlie ep )

I've also watched ALL of Battlestar Galactica this weekend. I had a huge headache afterwards, but it was so worth it! *grins*

I loooove Starbuck!! And Apollo/Starbuck. And Helo, and Sharon, and the chief and I won't go on.. but whoootooo.... continuety rocks. the only thing missing is that fun of stargate atlantis. It is more an angst than a fun show. Which is cool...it would suck if they were similar. I love scifi. Not healthy.

My mum is constantly gushing about Farscape. My mum and shruuf. You are bad people. I mean..you want me to get stuff done, right?

also remember to participate in svmadelyn's Valentine Secret.

Also, this icon I'm using is all the crative energy I could muster. In that case..it is a waricon.. war against non-creativity or something.

Also, happy belated birthday to violetsmiles, shattered and serafina20. I'm sorry I missed it. I hope you all had great birthdays. Happy birthday sarahjane12!!! I hope you have an awesome day.

Happy birthday kwerkee!!! thanks for brining us all the Michael *squeeee* I hope you have an awesome day.

I decided to play with simple blending for you a bit. Cos I felt like it and I hadn't done it for a while. And of course I overdid it, just like always. Suddenly I had like..20 blends. I'm not posting them all, but I hope you enjoy those. Don't be scared by the Lana and the Pink )

As always, caps by oxoniensis. All from episode Aqua.

ps: I realized I haven't been answering comments...but alas..I felt liek creating more.

Again, happy birthday justabi. This was actually ready back then..but the result was way boring so I went and it mutaded to something..different. I#m not sure how I feel about it yet, but it is quite an experiment.

I hope you enoy :)

You know, me and the habit to always leave things till the last minute. It really sucks.... and I've been sitting on most of these icons for ages. Basically since the episodes aired and stuff. Alas, I hope you enjoy it anyways.

ps: welcome new flisties!!!! eeeeeek :)

Also, happy belated birthday justabi. I've started this wp for you... erm..just not ready yet :)

I'm watching loads of shows and my own laziness keeps me from reviewing them...

For instance, I've yet to comment on the last Veronica Mars and the last Smallville. Wait... I'm not sure I've reviewed the Smallville S5 Pilot even.....

So I'm gonna do a little joint post...

( Smallville Mortal & Arrival )

( Veronica Mars 2x02 )

And here is a little Veronica Mars collage. I played with a texture I just made... I dunno.... it's not spectecular..but I had fun.



Happy belated birthday astrea9562 and evilsushi. I hope you had a great time!!


Also, elsmoka hooked me on House M.D. Bad girl... I love it. Seriously..my three favorite shows are these.

I also watch Prison Break, Gilmore Girls, Lost, Housewives, Arrested Developement cracks me up big time and I love Kitchen Confidental and Supernatural. The OC is extremely bland this season and I stopped watching Alias.

 

Smallville icons for the eps Prodigal, Commencement, Legacy & Hourglass, sorta for SV glee-Week. Caps made by oxoniensis and moi. Inspired by killprettyx, because color rules :) I'm really happy with how these turned out. Commencement icons to get you in tune with the season 5 premiere tonight and I must admit, I'm a wee bit excited.

( icons )

Also, I missed quite a few birthdays.... so happy belated birthday newkidfan, aurora_bee, xnitelite, complicat and happy birthday luvmax1.

ps: thanks to everyone who gave me feedback on my fanfic last night. Hopefully I can see Veronica Mars soon. Oh..and We've got three completed GleeWeek Arts... so the rest, go go!!!

Versions of hell

Summary: Hell was cold...

Thanks to elsmoka for audiencing and beta-reading and to formward from posting a really crappy pwp and never being happy with it. so I'm goign with the original idea that was answer to both the Apocalypse prompt and the warmth prompt and am taking more time... I hope svmadlyn doesn't kill me.

This is also for oxoniensis, violetsmiles and for me new flisties :) Make me continue!!!!

( Part 1 )

ps: I am open to constructive critisism :) Fromward said I'm going too fast and I'm not sure what to do about that.
