OK, so I finally set up an account.  But I'm mostly here for the fic and I'm a reader, not a writer.  I honestly never expected to use the journal part.

However, my not-a-creator stance has been a teeny bit stepped on by the requests I've had over the past few days for my current default userpic.  Yes, I had better things to do last Sunday afternoon, but I made the pic anyway.  Rather than type it out again, here's my say:

"use and love, but credit - it's just good manners" ... 350x350 version is here, but I suspect it shows the workings too well - it's not PS standard.  For the record, It's Cillian Murphy's hand on Joe's shoulder and Tom's right lapel is Ken Watanabe's sleeve  ... http://i779.photobucket.com/albums/yy78/we_reflamingos/londoncut.jpg

Despite the above, I have no credit details for the original. The person who sent it to me can't remember where she got it, so I apologise. The original I used is here: http://i779.photobucket.com/albums/yy78/we_reflamingos/londonorig.jpg

Someone seems to have complained about the NSFW Tom Hardy pic - sorry folks, it's no longer available.

Enjoy (the rest) :D

thanks for userpic

even this simple little thing is inspiring to someone who used to write, used to create and has lost the way. maybe i'll try again.
thank you for this: a photo i thought i had missed on the internets turns out to be a fiction. made the brain remember to hop the box, or at least make an attempt. that's a lot!

Wow, I had no idea I could do that! I'm kinda blown away. Thank you. I really like the idea of the pic as a little fic. I made my pic because I wanted to look at it, pure and simple, and it wasn't going to exist unless I did. Don't know what it was about that cast photo, but I knew (pretty instantly) I could do something with it.

You should give your writing another go, and another and another. You'll find your way again. And when (not if) you're ready to share, I'd love to read it. I'm a reader, after all. ;-)

It really was one of those flashes of inspiration. I looked at the source, left at JGL, right at Tom, left at JGL and back to Tom. And I KNEW what it would look like. I'm afraid there are FAR hotter things I could shop with those boys if I only had the skills! ;)
