I have decided to keep this journal semi locked from now on. I have no plans at the moment to add more friends here, the ones I already have know much of my rambles so far ;-). If you have found this journal on the hunt for my icons all those posts are still visible to see here going back, and from now on I will be posting all of my graphics resources on dreams_of_fancy, so If you want to have updates on my icons and graphics,  join or watch there :-). There are from time to time be friends only posts such as tutorials or larger textures.

Just to say I am back to LJ again, still going to be in a limited capacity till I am all better *hopes that it won't be too long, this has just gone on long enough now....LOL

Looking forward to seeing you around and about again :-) *hugs with flowers*

Here are the wallpapers to go with the headers from yesterday :-)

Themes includes: Jane Austen, Elizabeth Bennet, Becoming Jane, Jane Eyre, North and South, Marie Antoinette and Drew Barrymore.

( The rest are this way...... )

Inspired by the lovely spikesbint  i am going to post my awards in separate posts - it would apear to be a far more organised way or aproching this, and if I had thought back at the beginning of this journal that I would have entered so many contests I may well have done something more sensible from the start.

This post is made up of all my old awards made for my original user name flier_of_kites which I now use as a personal journal.

( on to the awards )

Sorry for my latest update being so delayed..........These are the first icons I have entered into richard_stills for some time, due to art obligations in RL.

     

At last I have gotten round to setting up a separate place to post my graphics resources that I seem to be making for myself constantly.

so here it is.....

dreams_of_fancy  dreams_of_fancy  dreams_of_fancy

First post coming soon!!

MTA - best viewed in firefox for now while i work out some IE teething problems .....

Finally at last I have given the layout of my journal a new look *jumps around with glee*

I have to say a big thanks to  spikesbint  for all your help, and for pointing me in the direction of  refuted  for the code I used.

Thank you so much!!!!!

And another posting....

Icons contests  include:
