i'm back in a groove! hooray. i'm sure there will be more of these, perhaps with pictures or something, or at least with better little doodles, because right now i was too lazy to get my tablet out. um.

10 text icons!

( out-of-context spoilers behind the cut. )
bg textures by dearest. quotes (c) j.k. rowling 2007...?

ETA: i found some doctor who icons that i made a while ago when i had a ~48hr. doctor who phase! coolness.

BALLIN'?! as you can see, i've grown no more intelligent in the...35 weeks, a.t. LJ, that i've been ignoring this journal. hooray!

coming soon:
+ superman icons (yes, they're still coming)
+ hollywoodland icons...
+ ...paired with adrien brody icons (adrien brody is the embodiment of sex)
+ redorange fabric textures
+ probably some more textures like this, but different colors.

new journal style. it's brown-er. because i have coffee in my name. i think it's more fitting. probably i'll have to make a new userpic now though, because dark red and dark beige just do not go.

cheers!

coming soon/now: superman icons.
fight club icons abandoned until further notice...i might post them in a miscellaneous batch someday.

cheerio!

not a real update, sorry. my ribbons from my first round of submissions at pickmybest, in round 4. i submitted those x-men icons from a while back.

pickmybest is a really good comm, i highly recommend it, especially if you're an icon-maker. you don't have to make icons to vote, though! check it out, some round 5 submissions could probably still use a vote. go to the userinfo to read the guidelines, which are in abundance.

working on those fight club and superman icons i promised last time. toodles.

i'm back and ready to party.

recently published to deviantart are 8 photos, taken at sissinghurst garden in the south of england. at the suggestion of my good friend hagaren22, i've decided to designate them as usable for stock. you can do whatever you want with them.

( guidelines for this... )

( links to the stock. )

a somewhat half-assed but sort of cool f-o banner: ( <3 )

and now, a list of upcoming items.
1. movie: fight club icons
2. movie: superman returns icons
3. graphic?: a possible random header. something from europe, most likely.
4. textures?: a possible texture set from more europe pictures.

that's all for now. off to work more on those icons i just promised. hm.

i'm leaving town for a few weeks (going to europe!!! squee) and i'll be back on july 13. next up: fight club icons! i love that movie. toodles.

a quick update, just a friends-only banner. i could make a header to go with it, maybe i'll do that sometime. i love this brush set! it's people! it's so cool. that's how i made my default icon and whatnot. 100+ awesome vector brushes, from tiny to huge. i think it was on dA somewhere. if i can find the link, i'll post it.

aight, enough rambling.

( t3h banner )

cheers.

hi! i'm rancid_bean. this is my icon and graphics journal.

the "rules," or something like them:
1. comments are loved.
2. credits are nice.
3. HOWEVER! you don't have to do either, since i often don't comment and am pretty awful at crediting. the golden rule.

because i am pants at crediting, this is a list of all my resources that i ever might possibly use, and generally just good places to get supplies. every time i download a brush, texture, or whatever else, i try to add its creator to this list.

- 100x100_brushes
- icon_extras
- damnicons, or sarah-dipity at deviantart
- chokingonstatic at deviantart
- latexandleather or notfadeaway at deviantart
- neke
- ch_photoshopped
- myrasis
- unmasked_icons
- unfinishedcoke (f/o; dA is goddessoffangirls.)
- wonderland__
- Hybrid-Genesis
- girlboheme
- colorfilter
- _iconographer
- september_icons
- ewanism
- ownthesunshine or sanami276 at deviantart
- icon_goddess
- justmi
- _promenadeicons
- apparating
- FONTS: dafont.com
- PHOTO STOCK: foureyes stock @ dA
- mrs. berry taught me how to use blending options, lollylops.

oh, and probably so many more. i try to add the creator to my resources list every time i grab something, but i am apt to leave things out. also see my uesrinfo and/or my flist to see journals and comms i've friended, on the off chance that, heaven forbid, i forget to post them into here. if you think i used your stuff and missed you, please please e-mail or comment. i don't like stealing. same goes for icons in my userpics - if you think i've miscredited or not credited or something, please, please let me know!!!

FAQ:
i'd be overjoyed to take requests for icons, headers, backgrounds, etc.

i use windows XP, photoshop CS2 and occasionally macromedia flash 8 for clean inks and whatnot.

my deviantart is jerseynoland.

comms where i post: pickmybest || 100x100_brushes

hum-dee-dum. that's all. have a nice time.
