The Phantom of the Opera icons and wallpapers
A batch of The Phantom of the Opera icontest entries for
poto_stillness. All are from the movie with Emmy Rossum and Gerard Butler, and I've included two wallpapers as well because I just couldn't resist. ;-)
As always, never alter my graphics, comment, credit, and enjoy! (and if I catch you stealing, I'll sick the Opera Ghost on you!!)
Teasers:

Please, if you take anything, be so kind as to take note of the numbers of the icon(s) you're saving, since I am always experimenting with my styles and I would like to know what people like best. (This helps me so I can make more!) The numbers are above the icons.

1024x768
1280x1024

1200x800
#1 won 1st place @

#2 won 2nd place @

#7 won 1st place @

#8 won 2nd place @

#13 won 1st place @

#14 won 2nd place @

The wallpapers are all uploaded to my deviantART account. I've started doing my wallpapers there rather than Photobucket because they allow larger resolutions for wallpapers, and I think it uploads faster. ;-)

I like 13 and 14 especially. Not taking any right now, though.
I've left a few other comments on your LJ using this username as well as my icon journal,

May I ask where you got your scribble textures, and what fonts you used on numbers 9, 10, 15, 17, 18, and the first wallpaper? I know that's a lot, but they're really striking.
Again, great work. :D

Oh, of course! Let me see...the scribbles were brought to my attention by a friend and are made by
9 -- 28 Days Later
10 -- Velvet and the tiny text is Times New Yorker
15 & 17 -- Felix Titling
18 -- the tiny text is Felix Titling again, and the gothic font is XiBeronne.
There! I think that's all...;-)

I've made a ton of wallpapers that I haven't posted here on LJ yet at my deviantART account (linked on my sidebar). I haven't made too many widescreens, but a lot of what I've done has a lot of extra black space around it. Setting the wallpaper on center might still work out nicely, you know what I mean? :-)
