[identity profile] phibby.livejournal.com posting in [community profile] book_icons
Hey there everyone! I just joined this community a few days ago. This will be my first post, and I've got some icons for you guys. :) After finding some of our old picture books, I thought some of the art was so beautiful (or cute, in some cases) that I couldn't help but make icons out of them. Hope everyone likes them!

I've got 72 icons total - one animated. Feel free to use them for anything you like, and if you'd like to use a textless icon as a base, go ahead. If you use any, please try and credit me if possible. :) All comments are welcome even if you don't take any.

Example:

All icons were made with PSP6, though I also used PSP8 for 42 and Animation Shop 2 for 33. All pictures were scanned directly from the books, and all resizing was done in Microsoft PhotoDraw. :)

I don't know any of these books but these icons look so good I'll have to go look for them. "Strega Nona" and "Stinky Cheeseman" sound like must-have titles. I have a baby boy I can inflict these on. ;)

Your icons make me so happy! Do you happen to remember where you found your images from Strega Nona. I scoured the net and only managed to find cover images. I really love the icon w/ the pasta pot.

I took #10 because everyone needs an icon that conveys embarrassment, hunger, and fear simultaneously.
