For graphic makers, I found an automated-effects website: http://www.lunapic.com/editor/. Check it out and let me know what you think! Do you know of any other websites like this?
I took what I made on the website, messed around more with PS, and added a BJ pic, to get this:  |

| Anim icon req? |
[Nov. 17th, 2009|10:40 am] |
Hey hey! I am really into making/remaking animated icons with the awesome 100kb limit for Insane Journal. It's so amazing the difference! I totally want to do prom and pride dance moments, and the hot bike scene of S4. And practically every other moment, heh. But I wanted to ask if any of you have something specific you'd like me to tackle. So, anyone? Anyone?
Also, ![[info]](http://www.insanejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) brianslave68 asked me about writing a tutorial for making anim icons, eeep, heee. Would anyone be interested in that?
FYI, here is an lj-icon:
and here is an ij-icon, which is bigger with more frames (I didn't mess as much with lighting and sharpening this morning yet):

I had no idea that IJ icons could be 100kb! I am off to redo all of my animated icons. I'll see you next month! Kisses! Be safe. Check out my newest, where Brian does that sexy lean away, head-tilt, seductive move. Whoooooopppeeee! You can have it if you want it. Thanks, qafmaniac, for letting me know! |

| Qual of anim icon |
[Nov. 15th, 2009|11:18 pm] |

I am trying to make an animated icon, which is pretty straightforward except for trying to get it to fit under the 40kb limit. So, when is it ok to lower the color number from 256 to 200 or even 128? Or is it always imperative to keep the color at 256? TIA! |

* Remember that European-timed marathon is today! \0/ It's so fun to watch with others. Today is episode 104.
* What do you think Justin's birthdays were like in the later seasons? Did Brian throw him a bone and take him out to a nice dinner a week early? Buy him a pair of fancy socks so his feet wouldn't always be cold? Or would he actually buy him a real present and give it without subterfuge?
* I've been feeling kind of wanky about Brian lately, and not in a plaw. I want to write a story where Justin doesn't go back to Brian in S3 because he wants and expects more from a partner than Brian willingly gives. Brian's "won't" attitude just doesn't cut it with Justin anymore. So, Justin moves on and dates others and is genuinely happy most of the time. I want Brian to break though sooner rather than later, and without it involving a medical crisis. But I can't get Brian to that place. He is so stubborn! It kind of reminds me about when I wanted Keith and Veronica from Veronica Mars to just move the hell away from that horrid town, lol. It would ruin the show and the relationship dynamics but would feel so good. I try not to elevate Justin to sainthood but damn, he really did put up with a lot that didn't have to do with tricking. Brian is so broken, why would anyone wish a relationship with him on someone he or she cared about? Although, I have to admit that Brian seemed to stop flaunting tricks in the loft after 206, except for the return-from-Vermont time. Sigh. They are both so complicated.
Happy Sunday! |

What kind of Halloween candy do you think Brian likes? Of course he wouldn't get any for himself, but would sneak some from Gus's stash.
( My answer and a picture of Brian from Halloween (NSFW) )
PS- I made a new icon (my userpic). You can have it if you want. |

For the Fall Challenge Change catergory, I made a graphic and then didn't know what to do with it. Is a header waiting for some extra work? An icon looking to be downsized? I played with it for awhile and never really figured it out, so I didn't submit it. I think the sentiment is cool though and worth checking out. And I'd love suggestions for what I can do with it.
ETA- I made an icon after all (though the people look a bit blurry). Feel free to have it if you want it: 
If you want the file so you can play around with it or make your own creation, I'd be happy to email it to you. |

Stole this from _alicesprings by way of notreallyme. Basically, link to a favorite fic from each of the categories below.
AU: Growing Up Kinney by Myrna
Post 513: Fic by notreallyme. Each chapter has a title, but the whole thing doesn't. I say let's call it "Notreallytheend." Who is with me?

Humor or Crack: In the Palm of His Hand by vamphile
Gapfiller or fic from show's run: Coming in late to fandom, I just don't know what fics are "from the show's run." So, I'll just pick a fic I liked set sometime during the show, ok? OK! Willow Hill, Pa, Pop: 317 by flashfly

Every time Taylor Swift sings about "waiting at the back door" I giggle. QAF has ruined me for maturity. |

Today is when we get the Holiday/Winter Gift Exchange request, right? *tap dances with joy*
And then next week is the Scavenger Hunt Fall fun time (yea, I don't know what it is really called). *jitterbugs*
But in the meantime, um, I don't have anything for in the meantime. *throws love and inspiration at you all* |

A fic rec: If you Needed Me by Myrna, told in four parts. It starts after S2 before Ethan cheats, but is a total BJ story where Justin gets sick. I got this from retread, so some of y'all may have read it before. It made me laugh a ton and cry a little and is just a wonderful must-read.
( For those who have read it ) |

| Screencap question |
[Oct. 15th, 2009|11:42 am] |
Do any of you have downloaded torrents of QAF episodes from which to make screencaps? I have the DVDs, but they don't lend themselves to making good quality caps, but I've heard that the torrents do. I am specifically looking for a cap in 314, as seen in this icon by youbetterwiseup:
( But when I cap the scene, it looks like: ) |
