I suddenly have 250 MB at hotmail. 0_0

To say I'm pleased would be an understatement. To say I'm perplexed would be an understatement. To say that I'm baffled... well, no. That would not be an understatement. But yes; very pleased. Now I have two lovely accounts (though for some reason, I cannot reply to livejournal comments from hotmail anymore. *frowns*)

I'm doodling with names for the Akito Fanfic contest. We basically have a vote for the Akito site. But the contest is giving me hives because I want to keep it 'whole', since I want both genfic AND romantically-inclined fic. Though I suppose trying to assign Akito to a category is something I shall fail miserably at.

Yay for too many choices.

Icons

EDIT: For some reason, I was thinking cheloya and then I typed tokoyami 0_0 Yeah, I have no idea. So HUGE apologies to the two for that! cheloya was the kindly goddess who helped me on the stroke function.

Yay! Thanks to cheloya and flamika, I've learned the 'stroke' function. AND IT WORKS. *is in awe*

So three new icons! (though one of them doesn't employ the function)

2 - Naruto (Sakura)
1 - Angel Sanctuary (Yue)

( I am walking the path of icon-making. I shall never escape. )

More Questions:

1. How do I make text vertical so it's not just sideways?
2. Is animated icons a huge pain to make? I have some vague ideas regarding that.
3. Like *cough* this icon? The one where just the middle is animated? That looks a leetle bit beyond me.
4. Different fonts? I'm getting tired of my old ones.
5. Where can I download brushes?
6. I love you all =)
