Oh, these are beautiful! Lovely colours. I particularly like the first one.

[kat-lair.livejournal.com]

Aww, thank you so much! I occasionally get pretensions of being an artist and muck about with a graphics programme :D Very glad you liked, feel free to snag of course.

[quoshara.livejournal.com]

Very nice work, all three.

[kat-lair.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much :)

Those are lovely - and might even nudge me into using my photoshop capabilities and finding out how to do things! Thank you for such beautiful examples of wallpapers.

[kat-lair.livejournal.com]

Aww thank you! To be honest, I'm not 100% happy with these but I'm all ficced out for a bit so thought I'd go with graphics this time. I got the whole Acrobat suite including Fireworks free via work so have been using that gleefully. I currently have an urge to make some Rocky Horror Show icons because watched that again this weekend and kept thinking 'oooh that's a nice shot, crop it like that and...' We'll see :D

I adored my old (pirated) copy of Fireworks but to go with my new laptop I got a brand new copy of Photoshop from C for last Christmas. It does some things Fireworks doesn't, but merging pictures is less intuitive and I am going to have to concentrate on the tutorials. Trouble is, they're all in video form and I'm much better with text as a learning medium.

Never tried my hand at Photoshop so of no help... Would they not have written tutorials available online somewhere? I've seen graphic makers on lj do tutorials on how to layer things etc, perhaps worth looking into it?

[moth2fic.livejournal.com]

Yeah - I've found one or two but I'm only just getting to grips with them as they use terminology that I'm not used to. You wouldn't believe - well maybe you would - how many tutorials are video based - and of course you can't actually do it for yourself while watching the vid and listening... Maybe bythis time next year?!

These are gorgeous. The second one leads my mind down so many roads...

[kat-lair.livejournal.com]

Thank you! And intriguing, feel free to follow the roads to wherever they may lead...

P.S. Have your fic on an open tab, been crazy busy but really looking forward to reading what you did with my prompt!

Total and utter LOVE. They are my Crime Drama OTP :D

[kat-lair.livejournal.com]

Aww thank you! Yes, they give me a lot of feelings, Hathaway in particular with his too-smart, too-awkward, too-everything issues.

[milly-gal.livejournal.com]

Too afriad of his own feelings and sometimes his intelligence. I just love him, and I love the dynamic between him and Lewis ♥

I love Sherlock and Merlin and would love to add you to my F List and i write alot about books and sci fi stuff. Love to be added back.

[kat-lair.livejournal.com]

Just added. In the middle of an old Sherlocks drama, The Blind Banker.
