Re: Ah, lube . . .

Aw, thank you! I'm still just beginning to get the hang of LJ, and I find that my writing's getting a bit more confident as I go. Praise helps!

And as for services . . . I totally crave icon services.

My current icon, the tipsy-kitten-in-a-basket has only just recently been borrowed from [livejournal.com profile] pumpsnail, who happened to have it on hand. And I like the thought of a tipsy kitten icon, as I have a reference to tipsy kittens in one of my posts, in a bit about my umlaut issues (http://snipurl.com/umlautenvy).

But I'd love to have some form of icon that actually played on the concept of "shiny blogs". Especially something animated. Like somebody waxing a big shiny "BLOG" with little "shiny"s sparkling off it. I also wish I had something like this:

but with "shiny" instead of "pretty". (Isn't it cute, though? I don't know who the original creator was, so I don't know who to beg for permission to use it.)

Ooh, or a pack of vegetarian supermodels springing through a window to eat a hapless bygawker as he points and goes "ooh! shiny!" Only that'd be kinda twisted. And tough to make in 40k or less . . .

But, really, if there's anything you spot in my blog that makes you think "Oh, I could make something that'd fit that," I'd be delighted to see it, animated or not.
