From ahiru at fandom_wank:

Seriously, the trailers for Brokeback Mountain could just be a blank screen saying "Starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger as hot gay cowboys" and people (including me) would go see it because....hot gay cowboys. Being hot. Together. And this Jared Wilson guy thinks that's going to keep people away from the movie? What is he, new?

Bwahaha. In response to the 'Yuck Factor' review, here.

Yahoo! clip of the Alma/Ennis kitchen scene.

All quiet on the gay western front.

An American Masterpiece.

Gay cowboy love flick faces US challenge.

At close range with Annie Proulx.

GAY-COWBOY HISTRIONICS: A bizarrely passionless film.
(first line: First thing to know about Brokeback Mountain is that it doesn't remotely take place in the real world. He doesn't live in my real world, obviously. Also, another person who seems to have forgotten that sometimes movies are based on books.)

Is America ready for Brokeback Mountain?

Another Boondocks comic.

Also? I hate this 'ghey' or however you spell it thing. YOU ARE STILL SAYING GAY = BAD. I don't care how you spell it, it's bigoted and repulsive. A little boy at after school care said that the BFG movie was 'so gay' the other day and I sent him out of the room immediately.

Brokeback Mountain icons. They're crappy. Sorry. They use caps from the LOGO promo, so don't click if you don't want spoilers.

Teasers:



1. 2. 3. 4.

5. 6. 7. 8.

9. 10. 11. 12.

13. 14. 15. 16.

On an unrelated note, I think I might love this Thomas guy from King Kong. He hugs Adrien Brody and kisses Andy Serkis. Huzzah!

Is it gay cowboy month yet?

I love the 'O RLY?' 'YA RLY.' icons. XD

And OMG, you're like the newly-crowned BBM enabler. : woots :

"Brokeback Mountain icons. They're crappy."

BULLLLSHIITTT these are amazing. I especially love 9 and 10. They all have fantastic cropping, especially 7/8. (Speaking of 7/8, is the border a brush? . 11 and 12 are also super good too--I love the way you used that texturey thing. Yes.

Uhm, basically, I wish I could make icons as good as those that you make. Yay!

From: [identity profile] green-queen.livejournal.com


Okay, since we're mates and all, I'll let you in on a little secret.

I noticed that brush being used a lot but couldn't figure out who had made it or where to get it, so I copy/pasted an icon I saw using it into Photoshop and then (so as not to cheat completely) I opened a new file and fiddled around with the effects until I got a brush that looked almost the same. For that particular one I made a couple of lines and used different brushes as erasers until I got a nice frame sort of effect, then I rotated the image around and used it three more times.

That texturey thing was made by taking a base and then using the eraser tool with a sort of feathery brush and erasing most of the base, then sticking a brown colour layer over the top so it became monochromatic.

Thankyou so much, glad you like them!

THANK YOU SO MUCH for that detailed description regarding the boxy brush. That is incredibly helpful, and I know I'm going to be trying that!

That is incredibly smart about making the texture. You have so many great ideas; I know I have to try variations of them soon!

Your welcome, and you clearly deserve it!

Saved 5, 7, 11, 13, and 15. Lovely icons. I'm dying waiting around for this movie!!! It's gonna be like January before I can see it. But yes, thanks for all the wonderful links and the icons, too! :D

Ooo, much love for 5, Greenie my dear... Why is this movie not out in every single cinema everywhere yet?

You guys better get this one before the astronauts do...

Apparently, what Jared Wilson MEANT to write was: "No straight guys and conservative Christians could find two men kissing to be a turn-on" - or he wouldn't have completely ignored the fact that all of the quotes given directly respond to his contention, without insults, etc.

"Except for gays and fans of gay porn, people find gay sex gross. ;-)"

Well, ummmm.... isn't that basic logic? I mean, if you don't find gay sex gross... then you are more likely to b a fan of gay porn. *L*! Lord... it kills me when people assume that anybody who disagrees with them is faking who they are and what they're opinions are.

Number 11 I so cuddled and snagged to live with me. So pretty! Gay cowboys are ruling my life right now!

From: [identity profile] addictive-lost.livejournal.com


Gorgeous icons. So not crappy. Snagging 11. will credit when i use!

From: [identity profile] truffle-shuffle.livejournal.com


I think the icons are pretty.

I also think Adrien Brody is pretty. Yes, mmm-hmm. I do.

From: [identity profile] green-queen.livejournal.com


See, I never 'got' it before but since the Kong pics emerged I'm finally seeing it. Nice.

From: [identity profile] truffle-shuffle.livejournal.com


I got it way back when I saw Summer of Sam years ago. There's something so beautiful about him. I can't figure out what it is, but he has a presence that draws you in. Plus he's a fantastic actor.

From: [identity profile] randomstyle.livejournal.com


I don't know how I ended up here but I love your 'O RLY' & 'YA RLY' set. Can I take them to make an animated icon?

From: [identity profile] green-queen.livejournal.com


Because I'm not a teacher, I'm just a glorified babysitter, so I generally get to do whatever the hell I want.

Snagged a few. Will credit. Thanks!

From: [identity profile] sooo-sleepy.livejournal.com


Snagged #11. As always, beautiful work!!!

From: [identity profile] neuilly.livejournal.com


So hard to choose one....I think I'm going with number 7. Seriously you just make the most beautiful icons.

In unrelated news, I love Adrien Brody.

From: [identity profile] luckycharm-13.livejournal.com


I took 9 and 11; thank you so much! They're beautiful!

From: [identity profile] thumbaleena.livejournal.com


Any chance you can tell me where I could find the full picture to icon 11/12 please? I've seen it, thought I saved it and cannot for the luife of me remember where I saw it.

From: [identity profile] thumbaleena.livejournal.com
