So, Liz posted a link to this tutorial by cooldecade, with a fab gradient technique thingy for Photoshop. So I tried it out, making a Frodo icon... and it looked fab. So I made a few more. Here they are! (If there are mistakes, please email me - it's nearly 3am now and names are hard to spell at a time like this.)
Welcome to Pink Design. Basically this is a little project run by me, Beth, in which I create designs when I get bored, put them up here, and then people can use them to decorate their diaries if they want to. If you're having problems getting a template to work, check out the FAQ/Help page to see if it answers your question.
Thanks to Zut for hosting me, Francey for creating (and helping me understand and install) the crappymatic, Joanna for making a fabulous guestbook script, and all the people at Beautify/PMB for helping me to design better. Fonts used are Georgia, and Carpenter ICG. Powered by Movable Type. Seen by me in Firefox. Check at the W3C Validator.
