book_iconsI found this pretty collage of books and objects while doing a Google search. I don’t have fancy programs, so my icons are usually just found images, sized correctly, and rarely manipulated. Hopefully I’ll be able to do cooler things down the line, but for now I offer these as bases, etc.xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /
1.
xml:namespace prefix = v ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml" /
The rest are some details from the same collage:
2.
4.
One with text, because I *do* love books and robots. I would have preferred a cleaner, script text (and the colors blurred when the document saved, but I can’t seem to help that.) Oh, well…
5.
Now, just some random books and stacks photos. One with a lady and a gent in which I imagine they eventually reach for the same book in the stacks, a prelude to marriage and babies, divorce and a lonely turn in separate retirement homes…
6. 7.
8.
And now for some completely random Google finds…
9.
(Had trouble shrinking that one without losing a lot of definition.)
10. 11.
(ooooh, punk rock version.)

Date: 2005-04-06 11:57 pm (UTC)Love the icons 10 and 11. Not taking, but grinning madly at them. I am a librarian myself and love it.

I may come back and take one later.
I love these

Date: 2005-04-07 01:51 pm (UTC)Because many people have slow connections, would you please stick an lj-cut in here, and cut most of your icons? There shouldn't be more than 3 or 4 visible on people's Friends pages.
I will do so next time.

Date: 2005-04-07 06:18 pm (UTC)Don't worry about it. But... out of curiousity, what error message where you getting? (I'm a support volunteer. This stuff gets into your blood and makes you do crazy things, like harass people with errors in the name of "helping" them)
I can't remember.
Date: 2005-04-07 07:28 pm (UTC)But I'd put it right at the end. I tried it in three different places and couldn't get it to close. Also, no worries! I do feel bad about the loading time. I'm usually so good about remembering the cuts!
Re: I can't remember.
Date: 2005-04-07 08:54 pm (UTC)I can't reproduce this error. That means it's probably a glitch. Do me a favor, and submit a support request about it? If I'm reading your comment right, there's no way this should be happening.
I tried again and this is what I get...

Re: I tried again and this is what I get...
Date: 2005-04-07 09:27 pm (UTC)Seriously, open a support request.
Done.
