![Challenge Entry: Icon mini challenge [challenge entry]](/images/board_posticon_c.gif)
I did more icons for the mini challenge:
= Magnet
= Zebedee
= Pretty flower
= Have a b3ta day (not that keen on this one but I've made it now so have it)
BTW does anyone know is it possible to view the ones others have done as I can't find a way and it means I may be making ones others have already done better.
Also any requests as all mine so far are fairly self indulgent 'What I want' ones but I've got a good method and set up going now so can knock these out fairly easily (tho not everything makes a good icon I tried doing VINCENT last night and I just can't get him to look recognisable in the 15x13 px format due to his portrait aspect ratio: VINCENT =
tho I guess chopping off his 'legs' is an option but width is still an issue as his eyes really dictate the scale).

Toasty,
This is officially the ace-est thing I've ever seen from you
and it makes me kind of miserable that I am not capable of creating anything anywhere near as clever or technically brilliant.
On the other hand I am completely in awe of your talents and thankful
that I know you and count you amongst one of my pretend friends.
If they ever make a flesh and blood version of you, it would be a creation to behold. I'm blathering on here, because I'm speed typing and I
don't really know what it is that I'm saying.
Suffice it to say that I think this is woo and I have duly clicked
It may even also be a tad yay, and a smidgeon hoopla.
If you'd ramped up the Specular a bit more on the cup, I might have even added a Panowie,
but such is life.
Goodbye for now.
