Playing around

[calime]

This new PC is making me DO things *g*...and not quite the work-related stuff I should be engaged in...Have been playing around with lj styles, and now my lj looks suspiciously like my kitchen*ggg*! Paid account with it's 100 userpics makes for some wonderful icon-drooling time - I bow in front of the talented people who have graciously allowed their icons to be used, especially fabulous beeej (Yay!for Methos' hands...and angsty!Louis!...and Shadowfax) and wonderful mono_borracho! And this nice new machine even enables me to do some weird things with pics on my own - admittedly simple and basic, but, well, one lives and learns...the possibilities are quite enchanting*s*.

Wow, lookit the pretty colors! Very mustard-y and autumnal. :) And nice collection of icons! Is that a bull terrier? Is he yours? Only one tiny thing - the Methos 44 calibre love letter icon is one of mine. :)

Is that a bull terrier? Is he yours?
Yes, so are the cats and the horse...and the white bullie is the daughter of my bullie boy.
Only one tiny thing - the Methos 44 calibre love letter icon is one of mine. :)
Thank you for telling me! I will make the appropriate changes right away! And I just have to say again how much I admire your icons!*coffs* Would you ever consider doing one of the BratPrince!Lestat ones?*sits up and begs*

I wish I could have such a wonderful variety of animals! I love them all. But we live in a house in the 'burbs, and our lifestyle is not conducive to anything that can't be left alone for a good chunk of the day. I have two very spoiled cats. (points at icon) Cleo, the calico, is the love of my life. :)

As for Lestat - do you have a preference for the Tom Cruise version or the Stuart Townsend version? ;)

Cats should definitely be spoiled...and she is so sweet!
I guess that with me having all those creatures great and small has something to do with my job description *g* - if you see a lot of sick animals daily, one tends to want to see some healthy specimens on the time off *ggg*.
And I actually live in suburbian part of town too...in a flat...but the cats keep each other company, and the dog is with me at work (and pretty much goes with me everywhere I go, too.). Otherwise it would be pretty impossible to have him (and this breed is actually perfect for someone like me who some days works for 10 hours and other days wants to go scramble around in the stables or whatnot - very flexible dog, and loves to sleep even longer than I do *g*). And the horse lives out of town, close by...he's a bit too big to fit into the kitchen*bg*.

Tom Cruise, definitely...blonde hair looks weirdly appropriate on him...

It's Halloweeny in here - nice pumpkin colours! Aren't beeej icons lovely?! Without her I wouldn't have pretty Methos icons.

*grins* actually, I have a pumpkin sitting in my kitchen, too..though here in Estonia we do not tend to celebrate Halloween in the same way than in US (here it is much more a quiet time for the dead to come home to visit). But yellow is my favourite colour scheme any time of year.
And beeej is simply fabulous.
