Header/Banner Requests  
CLOSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I recently changed my layout (check it out!!) so I had to make a new Banner. I like making them a lot! Because of that I have decided to take 5 header/banner requests. Just copy and paste the request form below and fill it out in a comment. If you don't want the header or banner to be HP related that is fine! I would prefer actors or actresses though if they aren't HP because they are easier to find good pictures of! I will make them as soon as I get the requests. I expect them to be done in a day or two. I will put your lj names on all of them!

 

RULES
-One request per person.
-I will pick the pictures so don't worry about that. 

Requests 
1. [info]brunette2313 -David Beckham  done!!! here (If you want me to put YOUR username on this header, ask!)
2.  [info]chocolate_coins Dave Matthews (band)
3. [info]lotrfreak21 Fred and George (or the Phelps Twins)
4. [info]a_mesmerized Alan Rickman
5. [info]freelancer47 Helena Bonham Carter
+1- [info]simplydivine Alan Rickman
+1- [info]simplyateenager Trio

Tutorial Requests  

If you have any icons that you would like me to make a tutorial for please comment here and ask. I use gimp which means that most of the tuts I make can be made in any program. I will try and make tutorials for any icon that you request, although there will proably be a few I don't remember how I made. (hahaha I have an awful memory!!)

Gimp Basics  

In my recent tutorial (here) I had a lot of questions on how to do things like 'set to screen' and 'duplicate layers' in gimp. I therefore made this walk-through of it which shows the basics for gimp. I do not consider myself an expert in any way but this will be good for those who are just starting out on gimp. This is basically just step by step of my last tutorial which can be seen here.  I hope that someone finds this tut helpful because it took me FOREVER! Feel free to join my journal if you like it and want more updates. This post is VERY IMAGE HEAVY!   If you have ANY questions feel free to ask.

From  to . 

If you already know how to use gimp or you use a differet program follow THIS TUT! I made it last week and it is the exact same thing!

IF YOU HAVE NOT FINISHED DEATHLY HALLOWS YET DO NOT READ!

I finished Deathly Hallows late last night and have just finished mourning. Here are my thoughts on what happened and my bragging about my correct predictions. lol I would LOVE to hear your thoughts on the book. We can discuss the book until cosforums.com opens back up on the 24th. If you have any other topics you want to discuss that aren't below leave a comment about it. I really want to have some great discussions here, we can treat it like a chatroom.

Here are a bunch of icons and banners that I have been meaning to post for a long time. Most of them are from icontests. I hope that all of the icontests they were involved with are over because I have kind of forgotten what I entered where. If you like any of them I would LOVE it if you friended my journal. I am just getting started with icon making and this is only my 3rd icon post. Rules for if you take an icon or banner are at the bottom.
