Icon excite!
Jan. 6th, 2012 12:50 amOh my god!
I did something nearly clever with a graphics package!
I have wanted a Lester/Becker icon for AGES and finally had a browse through screencaps, but it's hard to find ones of them close. Anyhoo, I found a couple of caps by Emma-Jane where they were standing opposite each other and I cut the best Becker and Lester from the two images and put them together, taking out all the background that was originally separating them in the scene.
I used layers and everything!!!! And the join isn't even that easy to see!
This won't sound like much to you clever people who's graphics skills I admire and covet so much, but, I have never managed owt like this before. Very chuffed with self and new icon.
PS. I struggled with it for, like an hour, and when it came out right I have no idea what I actually did different from all my failed attempts, so will never be able to replicate it...
