I've got so many of these, that I thought it would be easier to just do them in installments. Here is Batch 2 -- this time with Henry, as requested. ;-) I have been experimenting with my style, so comments are very welcome!

As usual, do not steal, these are not bases, credit and comment if taking, and enjoy. :-)

Lovely icons, as always!

I forgot to mention to you but have you ever tried Gimp (http://gimp.org/)? I've also used Paint.NET but I prefer Gimp much better, as it has more features and it's free!

Thanks! And to answer your question, no, I have not tried Gimp. I will certainly look into it though! Thanks for the suggestion! May I ask what it does that Paint.NET doesn't?

It has more effects you can do with layers (ie burn, multiply, and others). It also has curves and saturation features I don't think Paint.NET has and you can do animation...which I don't think it can do either.

Paint.NET has a layers option that has burn and multiply features, among others. I use it occaisionally. Now animation is one thing I've yet to learn how to do -- I thought you had to have some special program??

BTW -- All these "brushes" I hear about on resource lists, do you know if they're compatable with Paint.NET?

Sorry if I was being unclear. What I meant by multiply and burn is that I believe Gimp has more of those types of features than Paint.NET...I know they both have multiply but Gimp has 20 different options for layers like multiply while I think Paint has less.

As for animation, Gimp has everything you need. When you download it animation comes with it. Paint.NET doesn't yet have this option.

Brushes are great little tools to use. I use them off and on. It's like text already made for you or a design that you can just "stamp" onto your icon, graphic, etc. Paint.NET also does not yet have this option. I downloaded Gimp after visiting this site which has a ton of tutorials, textures, and brushes I found very useful.

Oh -- now I understand. I think it was rather my own ignorance rather than your being unclear. ;-) Thanks so much for the links! *trots off to download*
