SYNCED AFFAIRS

Made in PS7, but should be translatable to PSP and Gimp, afaik.
Works best on blue and green tinted caps, but the theory can be tweaked for just about any cap.

Relatively image heavy. Includes explanations on each step taken.

And if you're not an icon maker, or don't have the time to sign up, more voters are always much appreciated!


New icons will be posted later this week!

First voting goes up tomorrow (Tue), but you can still sign up and enter right until it's posted. The theme is countries this round, and you get to decide which one.

graven_rose asked for a tutorial on an icon of my latest post. Not all, but many, of these icons are using the same basic coloring, with alterations of course, so a tutorial on them makes a lot of sense.

Lots of these have been lying on my computer unposted for far too long. Other, though, are brandnew, as I tried to fight my migraine with icons (non-thinking work for the most part). I was not succeeding on the migraine end, but at least managed to make several new icons I really like.

I was asked to make a tutorial for the icon below a while back. Here it is at last and I hope it's helpful.

I like writing tutorials, but I can't ever decide for which icons. So here's where you can ask me to write a tutorial for a specific icon of mine (please don't go too far back in my icon posts; I only keep my pds's for so long :P)


Also, I'd love requests for what to icon. That means no specific picture requests but general themes. Give me ideas for what kind of stock icons you'd like to see, which shows, which movies, etc.
You can ask for something I've never iconed before, but if I'm not interested in it at all, then I very probably won't make icons of it. Check my userinfo for everything I definitely will make icons of or just try your luck ;)
