Still catching up, this batch marked a return to icon-making about 6 months ago. I had to reteach myself all the techniques I'd forgotten I knew, resulting in an extremely mixed bag. These 6 icons are made from images of celebrities and models. The really surprising aspect is that only one features text--whether in the image or in my inspiration for the image manipulation.

Feel free to take any of these icons. Please comment and credit.

I've been making icons for a couple of years now. I originally started with GIMP but graduated to Photoshop CS2 after almost a year. Because I am self-taught, it was also nearly a year before I gained enough confidence to begin using or showing my icons to anyone.

In the past year or so, I've enjoyed the challenge of purposefully making icons at the request of--or as gifts for--others. Here are the gift icons I've made. They may not to be used without permission of the recipient.
