Introduction and welcome (original) (raw)

meredith44 @ 04:47 pm: Introduction and welcome
As I think I've posted everything that I've made so far, here is the official welcome post.

Welcome to my fanart journal. It mostly consists of my icons, but every once in awhile, I will post something larger like banners or wallpapers. My main fandoms are La Femme Nikita, NCIS, and Without a Trace, but I am a member of icontests that deal with CSI, Disney, Gilmore Girls, and other random subjects, so occasionally there will be icon posts for those fandoms as well.

I have listed all of my resources and awards that I have won, if anyone is interested. I'm working on a tutorial page, but I have so many other things on my plate that I'm not sure if I'm going to ever finish it.

Speaking of tutorials, if anyone (I have no idea why) is interested in knowing how I made any of my icons, feel free to ask. I save all of my PS files, so it would be pretty easy to explain (hopefully). Also, if anyone has any other questions or requests, feel free to ask that as well. I can't guarantee anything, but I'll at least read and comment.

Simple rules apply to all of my icon posts. Do not hotlink. If you do not know what that is, ask. If you take anything, credit (to either meredith44 or mouse_whisperer) is nice but not necessary. I do adore comments, though, even on really old posts, so even if you aren't taking anything, please drop a little note. The more specific the comments, the better. I don't mind concrit, but saying "I took a few" isn't so helpful. I don't make bases, so textless icons are not to be modified. If you would like to have text added (especially for NCIS ones, as I'm in a hush icontest), feel free to ask.

I think I've covered everything. Let me know if you think I forgot something. Enjoy! :)

(P.S. Right now this community is still under construction. I think I have all of the icon links up and working, but the larger artwork isn't up yet. I'll hopefully get to it soon.)

Congrats again on your new community. Actually, apparently you started it a long time ago, but I'm one of those who never heard about it, so I checked it only now. Your WaT icons are pretty new... yes, I still have plenty more of your previous ones in my HD and might post them... so that you know... I'm kidding, I won't, besides they are so pretty that mine can't be considered a threat.

See, I posted in it a long time ago because I wanted to get all of the old stuff out of the way before I posted the tarot card stuff. But when the tarot card stuff fell through, I never finished with the setting-up stuff and didn't open it. Consequently, no one knew about it/checked it until now. I know you have some of my older icons. I thought about it when I only re-uploaded 2 of the "FBI Boys" ones, because I thought you had them all. I'm glad you still think they're pretty; I looked back at the older icons and went, "What was I thinking when I made these?", which even holds true for some of my more recent stuff like the icons100 ones.
