Certainly haven't lost your skills !

Oma, your challenge sig is beautiful. I love that scene in New Order where they're all shouting Sam's name and there's that music. Sends a tingly feeling down my spine !

*flops into thread and waves tiredly* Why is it that when you have a bad day, everything goes wrong? I've just thrown my dinner all over the floor

*sigh*

Anyway, looking at all the pretty artwork is cheering me up Gorgeous challenge sigs Aveo and Oma, fantastic icons Jas and Aveo again (wow, you're getting very good at iconing Twin!), and welcome back Kitten, and no, you've definitely not lost your gimping skills!

(((Josi))) Bad days suck! But at least you know it can only get better...especially since you've logged into GW

Girls, having a bit of a senior moment here. I'm looking for some clips of both Sam and Jack turning their head and looking past the camera, or raising their head, either way is fine.

Example - Sam in Lost City when Jack tells her she is a national treasure, she drops her head and then we see her raise it again. It looks all angsty, that's kind of the idea I'm going for. I could use this one, but have used it before and as we know, variety is the spice of life

Anyone have any suggestions?? Please?

Sarai the first head duck that comes to mind is the one from Small Victories but that's not Angsty does she do one when they're against the wall in OoM/ItF??

I've tried to make some icons from the cap of Sam from EatG
I kinda wanted to see how many I could make, not convinced

sp for EatG

Oh, great crops. And I think you can pull off a few more.

Welcome back Kitty. Great sig.

Jas, great icons.

And what is a texture?

This is and this and lots of others.

Mostly used as backgrounds but they can give nice effects if you put them on top of everything, and change the blending mode.


Hugs Josi for her bad day.

It is a bit hard to catch up everything yet but I've greened who I could, and for these I couldn't - virtual green Jasmina Your b&w icons reminds me how good the artwork could be even in the simplest colours

And how about the challenges - when does it start and what are the rules?

I think she does but I'm after two individual 'head-ducking' () shots!

hmm...

And how about the challenges - when does it start and what are the rules?

The challenges run Friday to Friday, and Oma posts them each week along with last week's entries. The rules are just whatever is specified in the challenge Then we post our art here (unless we're having a secret week) and PM it to Oma.

Edit: Here's this week's one.

Ok, that sounds cool! Thanks for help josiane

[Blacky Kitten]

Awww, thanks guys! I'm pleasant with myself then Hope to return soon. Mow of to bed Night ((((((art thread)))))

[josiane]

Sarai are any of these any good? Wasn't sure exactly what you're after

Spoilered for length:

Spoiler:

More to come...

[josiane]

And more...

Spoiler:

[Sarai]

They are good. In fact....*snurches*

Sorry I wasn't very clear, looking for clips not stills. Making a vid you see . The idea is introducing the characters, and I like angsty-head-ducking-type clips.

Thanks for the help guys!
