MOD POST: layout

Sun, 29 Jul 2007 04:42:46 GMT

The layout of this journal is a bit whack at the moment - sorry for the eye-bleeding uglyness of it all.
Things will be back on track asap ♥

ICONS: tv - as time goes by: s1, eps 1-3

Mon, 09 Jul 2007 01:04:34 GMT

SCREENCAPS: tv - as time goes by: s1 ep1

I'm going to start posting screencaps on this journal as well. I do them for my own icons, so there's no reason not to share them, right?

The first lot is of "As Time Goes By" - Series 1, Episode 1.

MOD POST: name change - essoicons = peacebloomings

Thu, 21 Jun 2007 08:34:59 GMT

Hi all - don't be confused by this apparrent new user on your flist.
I just changed my personaljournal from esso to peace_bloom, so I decided that is was only logical to change my icon journal from essoicons to peacebloomings.
Nothing else has changed, all the posts are still there and you don't need to re-friend the journal or anything. I'm just posting so you don't get confused and think you friended some random journal and forgot about it (that's what I would do!).

In other news, my laptop is broken, so that's why I haven't posted in the last couple of weeks. Hopefully things will be back on track in that department soon.

Stay tuned for new icons and a new layout ♥

Sun, 20 May 2007 11:41:24 GMT

{17} Orchids

Lots of people requested 'sleep, relaxation, resting' icons so I've made a few.

ICONS: stock - the language of flowers

Wed, 28 Feb 2007 13:43:23 GMT

{74} The language of flowers

I've been doing some reading about the old fashioned 'language of flowers' and I think it's such a charming, old fashioned concept.
This is an icon set using that idea. I've got a textless icon, and then one with the flowers meaning like so:

ICONS: requests filled

Sun, 14 Jan 2007 07:29:18 GMT

Requests filled!

These icons are for general sharing.
They have been requesed by specific people but they are not for their exclusive use.
You can feel free to keep making requests HERE, but here are the ones I've done so far...

♥

etherealshores requested "Pinwheels..."
I'd never have thought of that as a theme, but it was fun to make them!
Preview:

shadowkitten87 requested "Icons with classic arts influeneces..."
It's a bit of a hodgepodge of artists, from Turner to Ingres, but I hope they suffice.
Preview:

ever_obsessed requested "Greece. The Acropolis, rich blue beaches, scattered ruins, maybe a nice smattering of god or goddess statuary...">
I've never been to Greece - I hope I've done it justice...
Preview:

cat_chase requested "Feminine, flowers, corsets, or baubles; all things vintage."
This request instantly made me think of Marie Antoinette, so I made a couple using details of the costumes etc., but I made some other ones as well.
Preview:

agguss requested "Paris related icons..."
Makin these ones certianly captured my imagination - and made me pine to go there!
Preview:

I have made some tea themed icon for my own amusement.
Mmmm... teeeea... *lol*
