Banners Anyone? (request post closed)

[katekat]

Hey guys, I'm feeling a little graph-y at the moment - anybody need/want story/fic banners? 

Number of requests:  5 banners (received)

Estimated time of completion:  3 days

Samples:  My banner archive is here.  My icons/wallpaper archive is here.

Wills & Won'ts:  I work mostly in the Buffy-verse, so if you're looking for something outside of that, I'll need high quality pics from you. I have trouble doing major focus on Connor shipped with anyone. Everything else is totally open (many of the kinky things you can imagine, I probably have source pics for, too!)

Other info: If you don't specify a size, I'll probably do something around 800x400. If you have any specific ideas, let me know - including specific pics, favorite colors, mood, favorite types of text (I may not be able to match perfectly, but I'll try), if you like "busy" or "collage" or "simple", if you'd like nudity or partial nudity, inks to other people's art you've really liked, etc. OR no specs at all! Either way. I tend to use promo pictures, but mix in screencaps too. I will always create at least 1 lj-sized icon for the work - but if you want smaller versions for any reason, ask and I can provide!  I may end up giving you alternates (sometimes different color, etc) because I generally do different versions and then can't decide which I like.

OMG, really truly? I madly love your graphics work, and I would be incredibly thrilled with artwork for After 8:30 (http://malnpudl.livejournal.com/13752.html), if that would interest you.

[katekat]

of course darling!! did you have anything particular in mind? sizes? styles?

[malnpudl.livejournal.com]

Hmmm... it takes place in Giles's apartment, so I suppose that color scheme would make sense. And perhaps there might be a fountain pen in it somewhere? Other than that, I have nothing in particular in mind.

*GLEE*

Feel like doing one for "Blackmail"?

Nudity's fine (it's erotica after all!), but a worksafe variation would be cool if that's where the muse takes you. Simple rather than busy, muted (or b&w) rather than saturated... but if you get an idea that takes you somewhere cool that's not those things, ride that idea!

And you have given me my fannish squee for the day! EEEE!

[katekat]

*grin* I would LOVE to lady! do you have an idea for sizes? would it be ok if i did a larger one for your website but a smaller version for when you're updating/posting fic in the verse to your lj?

[antennapedia.livejournal.com]

That sounds perfect!

[that_mireille]

Do you think you could do one for "Conspiracy Theory"? (Sofy doesn't mind.)

Anywhere the mood takes you would be fine by us. :D

[katekat]

OMG *BOUNCES* HELL YEAH.

:D

[that_mireille]

OH, THANK YOU! :D :D :D

What Happens In Vegas... (http://soft-princess.livejournal.com/383210.html) is *begging* for a banner. :D

Wherever it takes you, darling. :D

[katekat]

um YEAH I CAN! heeee. VEGAS!

(ps - did you get my email about your fic comm banner?)

[soft-princess.livejournal.com]

Hee! We got the email! We even talked about it and decided what to answer you, and then we BOTH THOUGHT THE OTHER HAD EMAILED YOU BACK. And now we're facepalming a lot. Hehe.

*squishes you*

[katekat]

MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! I would really love something tru/faith-y if at all possible. you know what i like. however, i'll likely not post before everyone else does, lol.

<3

~e!

[elizabuffy.livejournal.com]

shit. i was so busy w/ "kate!banner," and trying to jump before all slots were taken, i didn't read the "fine print." *blush*

Anyway, i'll rescind my non-story banner request thing. :">

~e!

[denny-dc.livejournal.com]

hey, I know I'm most likely too late, but I'd love to have you consider a story I'm posting now called "throwing stones at the moon". it's spike/dawn/xander (I know, what?) with some angel/spike and buffy/spike in the mix. It s a futuristic story, and if it crosses your mind to do it, or take a look at the story you can find it by going to my lj...if it doesn't fit the top five, than i'd love to use one of your other banners for my lj...just let me know.

(Your work is fabulous).

[katekat]

hi deny! i kinda didn't think there would be this great a response for my offer, so i feel a little buried at the moment. However, when I do get done with the first five requests I will totally take a look at your fic and see what i can do! and i totally appreciate the compliment - thank you!

[katekat]

hi denny!

first off, i'm really really sorry it's taken me literally forever to get back to you.

second, thank you so much for your totally sweet compliments! i really appreciate the feedback.

third... i had a graphicy urge and made you these:

I hope you like 'em!

Oh, and also, if you ever do want to use one of my other banners you're welcome to! If you want me to customize it with text too, just let me know....

take care,
kate

Oh, god. Clicking through that and seeing all the revisions I had you make for my current banner made me cringe. Thank you so much for being so patient with me. I absolutely adore my banner and, I swear to you, was just looking at it earlier today and thinking about how pretty it is.

[katekat]

lol - it was kind of crazy wasn't it? but not to worry, i'm profoundly grateful we went through that together, especially since it's produced something you like so much! especially if you can still stand it after these many months and still think good things about it.

*hugs*

[entrenous88.livejournal.com]

Oh, what a cool thing -- anyone who gets a banner from you is extremely lucky!

[katekat]

awww! you're sweet to say so darling!

[mary5958.livejournal.com]

I'm not in the market for a new banner, but I just wanted to say how much I love your work. I have it all collected in a file to look at and enjoy from time to time.

Thanks so much for sharing your talent with us. :-)

[katekat]

omg - you are TOO SWEET! especially since I have a file of YOUR work on my computer and i stare at it longingly when i want to get inspiration for manips. the mutual admiration society must instantly be founded!

all kidding aside, thank you so much for saying such lovely things about my artwork!

*hugs*

Me too

I know I'm late but I just have to ask. I am writing this story Compatible (Xangel) and was wishing (on my knees) that you could a header for it. I'm not too much for the nudity, So if you have time for me take a look at my icons I think they rep me well.

Thanks and if you have too many on you plate keep me in mind for next time.
