My first official batch of icons from the new Sense & Sensibility. :-) Do I need yet another subject to icon? Not really, but oh well. ;-P It's too pretty to pass up.

Twenty icons of the Dashwood sisters, mostly Elinor. Sorry, no heroes this time around! ;-P

As always, my icons are not bases so do not alter, please credit/comment with the numbers if taking, and enjoy!

5 - the crop, 6 - the b&w and text and red--but the contrast is a little severe, 7 - crop! so pretty!, 11 - crop and color, 10 - texture and text and heart, 14 - color and crop! I really like this one for some reason, 17 and 18 - crop and color, 19 - pretty eyeball! , 20 - like your Lizzy icon, aye? :) Very nice.

Several of them are a little over exposed... But I'm sure you know that. ;)

Edit: Well, I decided perhaps I should push back the laptop screen and make sure it wasn't the laptop's fault, and now the icons aren't so bright. :) The first couple are still kinda bright but the rest look great. :D

just curious... is the new sense & sensibility any good because i was very disappointed in the old one. Icons are beautiful.

*bows* Thank you, ma'am! :-D I am glad several of them, at least, meet your approval. ;-P And yes, like my Lizzy icon. Exactly! (if it ain't broke, don't fix it...)

Do you really think they are? Because I knew they were bright and "sunny" looking, but maybe I went a little overboard. :-/

Do laptops really make everything look freaky?

I like it, but then again I love the old one, too. They both have their faults and virtues, IMO. I would say that this new one is perhaps a little "younger" and "fresher" than the '95 version, if for no other reason than the cast is younger. If you like the Kiera Knightley P&P then I would wager you will like this S&S because it "borrowed" some elements from P&P. ;-)

Thank you. :-)

Thank you!

It certainly was very pretty to look at, wasn't it? :-)

I'd like to see this adaption...

I have to say that you have great taste in music! "Deliver Me" is an awesome song. I really like it. Have you heard Sarah's other song, "Beautiful"?

Date: 2008-04-14 11:43 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] olde-fashioned.livejournal.com
It's pretty good.

Haha, thank you! ;-D No, I have not heard that song. We just bought her albums Symphony and Diva. So far I like the latter best, with Deliver Me, Tu Quieres Volver, A Whiter Shade of Pale, and of course PotO. ;-D Which album is Beautiful on?

Haha. :D

Just a bit. :) I still like them, but I tend to shy from icons that are washed out... :/

Well, it's just that if the screen it perfectly straight it makes the picture lighter and if you lean it back it gets darker, and such.

From: [identity profile] olde-fashioned.livejournal.com
Well, I have noticed your preference for gritty/grungy darker icons. ;-) I like both kinds, but I do have a tendency to go overboard. ;-P

Oh. Our monitor does that.

Date: 2008-04-15 03:02 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] midenianscholar.livejournal.com
Yes, I do. :)

Yeah. :P It stinks when your making graphics on a dark screen and then you change computers and all the mistakes are totally obvious.

;-)

Oi! That's no fun. (and I'll confess to what I do when I'm iconing, even if you might think I'm weird for doing it. I kind of bob up and down and move my head around to check it from different angles, zoom it, etc. 8-/ I'm sure I look like a pigeon...)
