I don't think I have too much to say about this batch, except, I made, like, a bajillion of these yesterday during my break between classes (because I was sick and tired of reading about power relations and politics of the environment)--I made about 50 or so in around an hour, like, how the hell?
I don't mind, I've been really wanting to post icons, or really, just anything, so as to get back into the game (kinda'). I don't have the time like I did in the summer so getting used to that fact has been rather strange for the last few weeks. /GUH
Besides some of the new friends I've made recently through a meme (/WAVES HAPPILY), I would most importantly like to give a ridonkulous amount of x's and o's (and all my SMAP lovin') and THANKS to
honeyswallow for the time and effort she put into scanning most of her SMAP Magazine. I've already done my share of flailing to her, hahah, but seriously; thanks to her, I've made icons from them (OBVIOUSLY). It took every fibre of my being to not make an icon out of every single picture from her scans (I downloaded 'em all, o'course, PSHAW, so now just saving 'em for future batches, MOSTLY INAPPROPRIATE STARING). :DD
/IS VERY VERY GRATEFUL AND HOPES YOU LIKE THE ICONS AND CAN'T BELIEVE SHE DIDN'T RAMBLE LIKE SHE USUALLY DOES--WEIRD--EXCEPT SHE TOTALLY DID HA
P.S. Just credit me as so (credit user:
dictionarysays ) when taking these badboys, yanno, the usual, hahah.
P.S.S. I'm still too curious for my own good, so lemme' know which numbers you end up taking.
P.S.S.S. Not hot-linking would be awesome, please and thanks.
P.S.S.S.S. These badboys aren't bases, so, y'know, don't use 'em as such, hahah.
P.S.S.S.S.S. Like always, feedback is ridiculously appreciated. :)

Thanks! You know how I feel about our love for one another and everything that is SMAP. <4

err, whatever. The spinning Goro makes me happy LOL

Date: 2010-09-24 07:43 pm (UTC)I swear to you, as I was making the icons, I was droooooooling over the AFDHGFDHKDLKL-ness. /URF The fact the scans were so HQ too? Oh man. /A DREAM COME TRUE
Nakai is quite the lovable man! :DD He has that effect on most people, I think (I find myself repeatedly falling for the guy, too--with SMAP in general, just when I think I can't love them anymore I do. It's crazy).
Dood! You must totally buy the SMAP magazine. /DOESN'T THREAT Hahah. Apparently they're mucho easier to find in stores after the initial buzz and all. So I'm sure if you ever go looking for it, you'll find it. Honestly, just for their gorgeous facial structures, you should. xDD
Hahaha, spinning Goro is da bomb. I loved that episode. :)
(It's Ohkura! You're right. :DD It took a lot of smudging and tracing but I love the simplicity to it too.)

Oh man. 'Baru is disgustingly gorgeous (which I love even more because he doesn't try and he still manages to be all ossan & pervert & suchanamazingsinger at the same time, hahah). I'm glad you like the SMAP ones too. They're far too underated on lj (even though they're like the epic and the reason why idols can say they actually use the toilet and started idol variety and just guh, so cute and awesome and is my bias coming off to strong? /FACEPALM).
In sum, thanks! Glad you liked them. :)

Date: 2010-09-24 11:24 pm (UTC)Beautiful icons, as per usual! I'm stealing them all, but uh, I have no icon space and just switched out my icons, so now I have to make hard decisions again. :(
75, 77, 80, 83, 84, 87, 88, 89, 91, 93, and 94 are my favorites........>_> Seriously, though, love them all. Another gorgeous batch, my bb. ^^v I nearly died with happiness when I saw the magazine scans, so I'm super happy to see icons of them. ♥!

Date: 2010-09-28 07:36 pm (UTC)The only problem with new icon batches, I say!
But like actually. /IS FLATTERED BY YOUR KIND WORDS
Hahah, I love how you pretty much listed nearly all the SMAP icons as your favourites. Working with the scans was a double-edged sword, I swear. On the one hand all I wanted to do was: /DROOL, FLAIL AND STAAAAAAAAAAARE but on the other hand I had to: /GET DOWN TO BUSINESS AND DO THESE MEN JUSTICE so I think it kinda' worked out. Hahah.
Thanks again, bb~ <4

Aw, guh. Thanks. Icon-making looks way easier than it actually is, which, I kinda' like on the one hand because I'm told a lot of the time that it looks easy and it's far from it, but, if I can make it look easy, I think that's half the job. And dood! You could totally make icons. I have faith! :DD
/PRODS YOU (JUST A LITTLE BIT) TO MAKE ICONS BECAUSE SHE'S SURE SHE'D FALL IN LOVE WITH 'EM

Date: 2010-09-28 08:11 pm (UTC)I find icons with text are tricky in that they can go really well or just blah. It totally depends on the picture and what you write and so many other little things. At least for me. It's crazy how text can change an icon and so quickly.
Don't worry. Make more icons with text, practice different styles, you'll totally get the hang of it. I'm still nowhere near being an expert, I just play around a lot. It makes an awesome difference.
Thanks again! /APOLOGIZES FOR THE RAMBLE
