Basic Info BioWelcome to my icon journal! All that will be posted here are icons I've made, and possibly icon tutorials, if there's any interest in them. I mostly make fandom icons - House, Battlestar Galactica, Firefly, Lord of the Rings, Venture Bros., Clone High, Futurama, as well as Monty Python, Blackadder, and other British comedies, and various geek-interest subjects like role-playing games, sf/f quotes, and general snarkery.
Credits:
* If you take any icons, please credit either![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif)
curtana or iconsbycurtana in the keyword or comments field when you upload them.
*Comments are always appreciated, but not mandatory.
*If additional credit (such as to an artist or author) is required, I will mention that in the relevant post.
* Do not hotlink. Just don't.
* Do not claim my work as your own.
Requests:
* Please ask if there are changes (such as different text, different colouring) you would like made to an icon rather than doing it yourself. Most of the time I will be able to accommodate such requests.
* If you like my style and would like a custom-made icon, please submit your request as a comment on this post.
* If you wish to know how I made a particular icon, you can request a tutorial at the same place.
Icontests:
* Here are the icontests and challenges I currently participate in regularly:
