Ooh, I didn't know you were so talented at making graphics, Causmicfire! Some of them are beautiful, and some of them are hilarious! I especially love the recent EdWin ones you made Do you let people use your work if we give you credit for it? I'm soo tempted to use that EdWin as my avvie, but I want your permission first

Oh, I don't mind if they're used at all, I just get a kick out of making them and seeing them be used.

Thank you!

edit:

Might as well share these while I'm here, made from the ost cover

YAY! More goodies!

The 1st EdWin signature: I've heard that quote somewhere before, and now I really want to write and EdWin fic about that. That picture is just too cute!

A great 2 batches! Hope to see some more in the future!

Did some coloring on the back cover for the Let It Out Single, and made a banner/sig:

I don't mind adding text to it if anyone has any requests.

@J.S.- Yeah, it's a lovely quote by Amy Bloom.

I love the Lin/Ran Fan ones! And the detail around the hands in the last two looks great! Nice work ^^

@Aribelle - Thanks!

YAH! More stuff!

I LOVE the LingxRanFan ones with a passion. They're awesome together! "Once upon a time" gave me a small case of the shivers, knowing what comes next. The Buccaneer one was really sad, though. And the Ed ones just rocked.

Great job, as usual!

a little tribute to Looking For Group

Wow, quite the collection this time! Let's see...

--All the Kimblee ones--He creeps me out! Like, big time! (And the Joker icon only made things worse...)

--"With great power comes great responsibility"--No kidding! I love that quote, and it fits perfectly here!

--"NaNoWriMo '09: More important than automail"--Winry's finally getting her priorities straight!

--"Remembering is too hard"--Awwww... This one made me sad! I suppose that was the intended effect, though.

--"Bored prince is bored"--And lovable! I like Ling the same way I like Havoc, I think.

--"You've got a friend in me"--I am going to go listen to that song now!

--"I sense a disturbance in the force"--"As if millions of voices cried out in terror, and were suddenly silenced..." Yeah, I watch too much StarWars. I love it!

--All the Roy ones--pure win.

As usual, great batches! Each and every one is awesome!

lettering in whitehere

@J.S. - Thanks for all the kind words. Sorry to creep you out even more with Kimblee. I think Star Wars is kind of like FMA, you can never watch too much.

Yay! More!

--"Writer, Block"--I think we've all felt like that at one point or another.

--"NaNoWriMo... even the Colonel does it!" --"But Lieutenant, I am doing paperwork! You see? I'm writing a novel... on paper! And for a deadline, for crying out loud!"

--"NaNoWriMo: inspiration strikes in the strangest places"--Boy, I'll say!

--"NaNoWriMo: get your word count on"--"If I stay in here long enough, Lieutenant Hawkeye will find someone else to do my paperwork!"

--"The Emperor's Daughter Strikes Back"--And you'd better watch out--she can be pretty mean, herself!

--"Objection"--OMGPhoenixWrightAceAttorneyFTW!

Keep 'em comin'! I love 'em all!

Also lightened up the Jedi!May one. With text here and textless here

@J.S. - I love your extra commentary on the NaNo icons XD I've been wanting to make an Objection icon for a while, and episode 28 had the perfect scene!

Oooh! More! Gimmegimmegimme!

--"Yummy"--Gotta get your iron somehow, after all! I actually used to just suck on silverware because I liked the metalic tang. I don't do that anymore, though, I promise!

--Ed freaking out--I look like that when I yell at the tv! (Not kidding, either!)

--"Inside this heart..."--Can't read the rest of the text, but it's pretty awesome, nonetheless.

--"I shake my fist at you!"--My friends and I are always using variations of this. I have to say that Ed's far more menacing.

--"Place to hide"--Again, I can't read the small text, but it had me going, "Awwww... she's so cute!" anyway. I feel like I like Mei more in Brotherhood than in the manga for some reason...

--"Panda Kisses"--Not gonna lie, I melted into a big blob of ooze at this one. My mom and I always used to do "eskimo kisses" when I was little. Oh, for the days of childhood...

--"Striving for a better tomorrow"--And he'd better make it! D'ya hear me, Arakawa-sensei? He'd better make it!

--"We can do it"--OMGRosieTheRiveterFTW! I prefer Pinako to Rosie, though.

--"brush off all the dirt, pretend it didn't hurt"/"unshakable"--These are a true testament to RanFan's character. Love it!

@J.S. - I love you, you know that? It's great to see my little references caught.

About yelling at the T.V., it's okay, we all do that at one point or another (with me it was while watching the Angles Yankees games a couple weeks ago...so many extra innings, I kept telling myself I would stop watching, but didn't)

Inside this heart the people of my kingdom lie, cheesy yeah, but it's not really supposed to be readable.

Place to hide...can't remember what the rest of the text is it is.

I shake my fist at you...oh the good old days. My friends and I used to run around saying this, too.

Pinako's eyecatch is perfect for Rosie the Riveter, plus Pinako's just that awesome!

The RanFan one is actually lyrics from Placebo's Battle For The Sun, which is on their latest album. The song is great for the gym XD

Just a couple for now, I'll be back later with more unless something unplanned comes up.

*Lyrics from Slide by The Goo Goo Dolls

some slight color changes:





and May being awesome!

--"So Happy Together"/"You belong with me"--Awww... It's just so CUTE!

--"OMFG!(run)"--Seconded! *runs*

--"Ed, as seen by fangirls"--Only the ones who want his body. Personally, I prefer him NOT Prince-Charming-ified. But that's just me. Still like the icon! Makes me smile.

--Mei's OMG face--Kinda reminds me of some sort of Ancient Greek vase...

--"Here in your arms"--Okay, not gonna lie, I swooned just a little bit, here. (curious tangent: My Girl Scout Troop made up a dance for this song in our 10th/11th grade year. It was awesome!)

--"Slide your arms around me"--OH. EM. GEE. I LOVE THAT SONG! (On a side note, if I recall correctly, he addresses a girl named "May" in the song. Of course, I could just be mis-hearing "Babe", but I like "May" better for this one.)

--"Alchemist in shining armor"--Kinda reminds me of that one episode in anime1 where that guy tries to use Al as armor before they get to Risembool, and he goes, "I am the wormy armor! No... that's not right..." Made me laugh.

--"Revenge of the Ishvalan"--Ummm...Revenge of the Sith? I know Scar's a wildcard... Return of the Jedi? Hmm... Maybe...

--"PMS. It kills"--Indeed it does. I would know.

Yes, I didn't realize until after looking up the lyrics that he does indeed sing May, and then I had to make sure to use that line! And Slide one of my favorite songs...really I just love The Goo Goo Dolls

Maybe I should re-word that Ed one to say crazy fangirls...like May.

As for May being more likeable in the anime, maybe it's because we've gotten to see her attitude more.


Quick edit to throw in some ep 29 icons:

* tiny text: we have tea and cookies


textless here

--"Danger Zone"--I'd argue that anything remotely threatening within about a 50-foot radius of Bradley is in a danger zone. But that could just be me.

--"Join us: we have tea and cookies"--You don't know the power of the Dark Side... the food is AWESOME!

--"who needs sparkles?"--If you had sparkles, Ed, I'd be far less inclined to like you. They're just not... you.

--"Wash away these sins"--Too bad that doesn't work for the homunculi. "Hey! What'd you throw water on me for!" "You mean The Wizard of Oz LIED?"

--"Do you see what I see?"--A star, a star... by the name of Edward Elric. And no, I don't see what you see. Censoring, you know.

--"the pieces have been set"--Yay, chess analogy! Very fitting! (Although "the die has been cast" reflects the many gambles Roy is taking... Ooh! I said something philosophical! *is now rather excited*)

Geez! 4 batches to comment on? Well, we'll see how far I get before I have to dash off to class...

-"Good night"--Awww... she looks so sweet! You'd never know she could kill you!

-"Can I trust You"--Bad of me, but I almost hesitate to say yes. BUT YES YOU CAN, RIZA!

-The GreedLing ones--I like a slightly dangerous man, but he's a bit too dangerous, now.

-"Young Love"--Yeah, pretty much. Nothing says "I love you with all my heart" like smacking the man across the face.

-"Tea: the drink of champions"--Straight up it is! *raises her own cup of tea*

-"Ever had one of those days?"--I think we all have... But we're all still here, and that is what truly counts.

-"*needs a moment to recover*"--I did, too.

-"I get the feeling I'm forgetting something"--Roy was just too cute about the whole thing! I wanted a plushie to hug at that point! (Note to self--buy Roy plushie at SakuraCon this year!)

-"I'll keep my ambitions"--Atta boy, Roy! Show that homunculus who's boss!

-"goin' down swinging"--And we all know who his number one with a bullet is...

-"Knoxzilla"/"venting"--I have days like that, too. It's called PMS.

-The Armstrong/Ishbal ones--This never fails to make me feel brokenhearted.

-"fangirls"--Run, Al, RUN!

One more batch to go, but I have to get ready for (and go to) class. I'll be back to finish this later, I promise!

EDIT: Okay! Back!

-"Keeps us bound together"--That it does, that it does.

-"attack mode"--Who wouldn't be? She just had something sharp thrown at her!

-"say hello to my little friends"--She'd be a LOT more intimidating if she wasn't so tiny... Just sayin'.

-"victims of ourselves"--Makes me wonder how things are going to turn out in the end...

-"pieces in a parlor game"--I can see how you'd feel that way, Ed. *nods consolingly*

-"Got Books?"--O_O Yeah... but I don't use them like that. (Although I probably would if I had to...)

Whew! Majorly awesome work, as always! Looking forward to more! (Possibly with a li'l 101 action in there at some point? *wink*wink*nudge*nudge*cough*cough*)

Yeah, I'll have more chapter 101 icons coming, but holidays are crazy busy for me with work and life. I got some done...but mostly Olivier because she was going to kill me if I didn't...it also helps that she was the focus of the beginning of the chapter...

Well, the first ones are actually from an icontest prompt that hasn't been updated in a month, so I'm posting them.









Text on those are from Avantasia's Another Angel Down





..forgot I had Wrath in there... blood stains XD

Woohoo! More to comment on!

--"Aura to enchant"--Who the heck would be enchanted by that creepy thing, and may I smack them?

--"Mourn Another Angel"--I still am. (Can't read the really small text, though. At least, I'm assuming it's text.)

--The Wrath icons--The blood just makes him that much more bad@$$. (Funny thing is that I didn't really think of him as such until 102. Now, I find his acceptance that he's going down almost noble. Weird. (Tagged just in case...)

--"The Northern Wall"--She is that, indeed. I think I like her a bit better in Brotherhood than in the manga, which doesn't make too much sense until you take into account that all you see in the manga is "snapshots", and those can be quite inconveniently taken sometimes. (Then again, if she's deliberately drawn that way...) She just seems a teeny bit less, well, ice-queen-ish in Brotherhood. A very little, but enough to make me like her just a little more.

--"...?"--And this is what we call a "Dear God I hope whatever that was is friendly" moment.

--"Spoils to the Victor"--I sometimes think another good name for her would be "Victoria" for this reason.

--"Just a flesh wound"--She'd probably say it for as long as the Black Knight does, too.

--The rest of the Olivier icons--I guess she has gotten to be a bit less ice-queen-ish as the manga's progressed, too. I like her quite a bit more than when she was first introduced.

Awesome icons, all of 'em! I hope to see more whenever you get around to them, but real-life stuff definitely comes first, especially during the holidays!

@J.S. -Yes, go ahead and smack Hohenheim...lol. Thanks!

WOOHOO! More icons! Ah, how I've missed them!

--The Ed/Winry one--one of their cutest moments EVER.

--Den and chickens--Um, generally, we hide the Easter eggs other places, but whatever.

--"Here to pull you back"--*sighs* Still gets me every time.

--"We all fall down"--Seems to be a lot of that going around lately. But it's the bad guys who are so going all kinds of down when this is all over!

--Izumi--I think I know where Ed gets a lot of his attitude from. They're more similar than either would probably care to admit.

--"Oh no they didn't!"--Now would be a good time to deny all involvement.

--"I c whut u did thar"--I'm pretty sure he'd say that, actually.

--Young Father--Oh so deliciously creepy, but I was rather reminded of Spiderman 2. I was just waiting for the gravity to start sucking everything in.

Keep 'em coming when you can!

@J.S.Funny thing you should mention Spiderman 2...*points to Scar icon* XD Your comments always crack me up.

WHEEEEE!

--"falling apart"--I can't help but think of Ed's line from the English dub of anime1: "We're really falling apart at the seams, aren't we, Al?" As I recall, Al's response is something to the effect of, "But we're alive." Gives me hope.

--Scar--Well, now that you mention it... *bursts into song*Vindicated! I am selfish, I am wrong! I am right, I swear I'm right, swear I knew it all along and I am flawed! But I am cleaning up so well! I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself... (Would you believe I did that all from memory and I haven't heard that song more than a year?)

--"In her hands..."--Can't read the tiny text, so I'll assume it's poignant, relevant to the story, or both. She looks so suspicious of it, though! I would say it's not going to eat her, but considering how we've seen 2 homunculi possess bodies (and a third almost), I wouldn't put it past the stuff...

--GreedLing--That is an "OH SH--" expression if ever there was one. And he's usually so composed...

--Ed--C'mon, Ed! Fight! You can do it!

--"glomp"/"OTP"--They really are a cute pair! (Unfortunately for Roy, at the moment.) Arakawa would do that in the middle of a really intense scene!

--"spazz tiemz"/other Kimbley one--*shivers* Yup. Still gives me the willies. Just freakin' disappear, Kimbley! (Oh wait...)

--"unbalanced"--Oh, but we already knew that... I really shouldn't be kidding about the poor man at a time like this, but as much as I went "Oh~!" to that, I had to smile.

--"Shooting for the stars"--You can make it, Roy! And you've got lots of people to help! See? Even Izumi's pitching in and she doesn't even know you!

--"Slave 23/Cinderella"--Yeah, but Cinderella's story ended a bit more happily. Then again, Hoho doesn't seem to want his story to end happily... Oh, and he looks a bit like Link here. (Just pointing it out. Nothing wrong with that!)

Thank you for sharing your talents once more! I look forward to even more when you can do them!

--Olivier/"Invictus"--Very, very true.

--"Ice Queen"--Self-proclaimed, no doubt.

--"O RLY?"/"How ya doin'?"--Oh, very well, Havoc, thank you.

--Havoc waving--I'm always wondering what he catches on fire doing that...

--"whut?"--Yeah, we were all thinking that, Havoc.

--"They went that way"--Sure. Because you don't look suspicious in that getup.

--"Shhhhh"--Be vewy, vewy quiet...

--"Ninja tiemz"--Ninjas don't use guns! Shuriken, daggers, nunchucks, katana, maybe even a bow and arrows!... but not guns!

--"bang bang"--...shoot 'em up.

--"I'm too sexy for my mask"--And that's not all you're too sexy for...

--concentrating Havoc--Gah! I just love this guy!

--"Hi thar"--Hello, yourself, gorgeous!

--"Havoc"--Ohhh... Does someone need a massage? I think he does!

--"...?"--I'm sure we all feel that way now and then, but few look so cute making such an expression!

Thanks for all the Havoc icons! He's so awesome!

@JackSparrow589 - Thanks, Havoc deserves the love!

--"Until the end"--Which, unfortunately, is nigh, but it's been a long, hard journey, and everyone deserves a rest now.

--"looking to the future"--Metaphorically? Or maybe, just maybe... Oh, IwishIwishIwish!

--Riza--Yup. Her eyes are still huge. But that's not your issue, so it's okay.

--Denny--Aww! All smiles! He's so cute!

--Maria Ross--I'd wonder if Denny were smiling like that, too, Ross.

--almost everybody--EVERYBOD NOW! *does a crazy dance*

--RanFan and/or Ling--Her expression is adorable! And Ling's... classic Ling. What else?

--"Hahahahahah..."--Oh, Roy... you are so debonair...

--"A King is Born"--Yeah... and look how well that turned out. Props to whoever thought it up. Not.

--"Timeout chair"/"Fuhrer Candidate"--Totally thought this was Selim for a moment. The resemblance is a little uncanny.

--"You want to put WHAT inside me?"--My immediate reaction: College has definitely not done anything for my maturity.

--"Determined"--Can't say I don't admire that.

Great icons for ever and always! Looking forward to more!

@J.S.Yeah, Young!Wrath does indeed look uncannily like Pride...

Yeah, let's just say age doesn't exactly help the mind either...it was too hard to resist making that one...

--"By your side"--D'awwww... *sniffle* Roy said he wanted to see her tears again... Well...

--Den and watermelons--OMNOMNOMNOMNOM!

--"FOUND"--Al's reunions with his body always scare the crap outta me. 107 did not disappoint.

--"whut?"--...But he's just so adorable right there, bony as he is!

--Buccaneer/"smile"--I miss him! He was awesome!

--"IRON CHEF"--Um, Al? We didn't mean literally... (Reminds me of the 4-koma at the end of... whichever volume that was that had Ed grilling burgers on Al. )

--"bitter sweet victory"--I actually felt really bad for her when she got the news. Poor Olivier just kinda took a bit of a beating physically and emotionally. But she'll stand up and keep going.

--"WOAH"/"mind blown"--Yeah, I get that sometimes, too.

--"This Day WE FIGHT"--And tonight... we dine... in HELLLLLLLLLL! (Sorry, but that just had to be done...)

--"DO NOT WANT"--I've had those moments, as well.

--"Extraordinary Measures"--She's an extraordinary woman--I'd expect no less.

--"Diplomatic Relations"--...Ur doin' it wrong.

--Ran Fan--Having a "lightbulb" moment, are we?

Awesome icons, as usual!
