GIP, plus original pic
Wednesday, February 4th, 2004 05:55 pmOo, I've been waiting for a really good, evocative Angsty Sam portrait. This is the best one I've seen so far, I think.
The original pic showed up on Variety.com. I cleaned it up some - stripped the text, smoothed and played with color, etc.

If you'd like to use the image, that's cool. I'd appreciate a GIP post and credit. :)

...and another GIP
Monday, February 2nd, 2004 04:43 pmCouldn're resist this one, either. This is from today's Hollywood Reporter. It's an FYC ad for the Best Adapted Screenplay award (Fran, Philippa and PJ), and the quote on the ad is:
I'm glad that you are with me, Samwise Gamgee.
Here at the end of all things.
How is it that I can see these films so many times and still get torn up about the goings-on? Do I have some kind of adult brain doo-hicky all out of whack?
P.S. OK, I made some wallpapers of this one, too. Included the original formatting of the quote from the Oscar ad, just moved up a bit to fit.
( 1024x768 here... )
( ...and here's the 800x600 )
Enjoy!

GIP, a Hobbity Gift, and some apologies
Monday, February 2nd, 2004 04:22 pmCouldn't resist this image. It's from Friday's Hollywood Reporter Oscar ad. A two-page spread with the thank-yous from New Line for all the Oscar noms on the other page. I found it fitting and a little eyebrow-raising that they chose a pic of Elijah, the lead ACTOR for this ad. Think New Line might be a bit miffed on that score? ;)
Next up, I thought the icon image would make a great wallpaper, so here it is for you all:
( Here's the 1024x768... )
( ...and here's the 800x600 )
On another note, thank you for all the lovely support I received the other day when I was in a depressed funk. It's really wonderful to know there are such caring folks out there.
karadin, I'm still working on a reply for you. Hope it'll be worth the wait. ;) Hugs to all of you, my friends.
And lastly, apologies going out to
singeaddams,
danachan, and
princessofg. Work has kicked my ass this week, and I've gotten totally behind. But I'm buckling down today and tomorrow (my weekend), and will get stuff out to you. Pagan's honor!
Oh, she will, mistresses. Don't worry. Or there'll be no sausages for dinner.
*chortle* Why, Master Gamgee, you've such a silver tongue on you.
Later, dudes.

Heehee! Check out my new icon!
Thanks are due to The Illustrious Spike for the idea and the quote, and to
green_ghost for actually putting the thing together (as I am completely ignorant about GIFs).
You both rock!! *hugs and kisses and confetti thrown*

That pic of Dom with the eyeliner still gets me mesmerized. There's just something about it - he looks most evil and hot. So I whipped up this icon.
There are two terms the illustrious Spike and I use to describe ideal lovers - fuckbunny and monkeyboy.
A fuckbunny has endless enthusiasm for sex. Usually young (in fact, it's a condition that gets creepier the older a guy is), preferably cute. Gods, yes, very preferably.
Whereas, a monkeyboy has natural talent. Never needs to be guided or prompted. Spike defines him as "a guy who knows exactly what to do with his hands".
Either of these is a wonderful thing. Put 'em together in one guy and well...they'll find you the next day with the top of your head blown off from the fireworks!

Thursday, December 25th, 2003 04:15 amHere's a nice little gift for you: the last of the Angeleno shots. Sorry it took so long to get to this one, but I figure it'll be a sweet surprise to find under your virtual tree...
( Lovely Elijah, all ready for unwrapping... )
Enjoy!

Heehee! I've been waiting for just the right photo on which to put this great classic quote. Dear Bill, your spirit lives on!
Thanks to
goldilocks_took for the great photo of little Elijah. :)

GIP (Gratuitous Icon Post)
Monday, July 7th, 2003 11:24 pmGuess it's my turn initiate myself into this tradition. :D
Spent some intimate time with Tom Waits and his wonderfully ruined and melancholic voice. Nothing like his whiskey-and-cigarette wisdom when one is struggling with one's heart.
So I got inspired, and here you see the result - the first of several icons featuring TW lyrics. He's a treasure trove, really - check him out.
