Gen Bingo - Wild Card - The Sentinel

[stargatesg1971]

I made this so I could convert it into an icon but it just looks crap in tiny format so I'm posting it as my wild card for this round. It's smaller than what I'd normally post but enlarging it is out of the question 'cause the source pic for the background distorts if try to, oh well...

This is cool!! Pity it doesn't work as an icon, but it's fun as it is! :D

Thanks!! I must admit I was rather taken with it too. It's a shame it won't work as an icon but, so be it, at least I got to post it here instead. :D

Great vivid colours - and Blair explaining with his hands. *g*


(And when I try to enlarge it on my computer it works .... )

Thanks! I'm glad you it. The colours are what drew me to the background imagine the first place, I only tweaked with them a smidge. I adore Blair talking with his hands too, I do that a lot as well LOL.

Aww, that was really sweet of yoy. *hugs* You're right, it does enlarge and still stay in proportion but if I try and alter it to (what I class as) a reasonable size the quality on the image drops drastically and it distorts the overall look of it. On reflection I probably should have worded my whine a little differently and given a more detailed account of the distortion.

I like it, very vivid.
You could frame it and make it a component of a larger wall. Nice bright vivid for st. Patrick's day or Easter themed wall

Thanks! The brightness and clarity are what pulled me into the background image. :D

Oh yes a frame, I didn't consider that as an option. Thanks, Cimmie!

I love both of the boys in this one, but the background is stunning. So gorgeous. Great job.

I was rather taken with the background image too, so bright and vivid I couldn't resist playing with it (and the boys LOL). Thanks for commenting! I'm glad you liked it.

Gorgeous colours. I particularly like Jim's stance, and I like how you've placed Blair at an angle to him. Great work! :)).

I was drawn to the colours too, as you say, they're gorgeous. I'm glad you liked the stance/placement etc. for Jim and Blair in this one and I'd love to take credit for that, but all I did (on this occasion) was cut them out as is and then decide where to place them in the background and tweak with the lighting/filters etc. Thanks for the lovely feedback, hon!!

Ooh, this is pretty! I love how vivid the colours are. It also makes me think of The Wizard of Oz.

"See, Jim, we follow the yellow brick road and it'll lead us straight to the Wizard of Oz."

"I don't know, Chief, it sounds hinky to me. Those munchkins were too keen to get rid of us after we landed the house on top of that witch. I'm sure this would count as leaving the scene of an accident."

"Well, you could try collect calling Simon, but I don't think he'd accept the charges from Oz."

"I think those munchkins were on drugs. I think the mayor is in on it too. Maybe I should just go back and arrest them all."

:oD

Thanks! I was looking for a background image with greens and yellows for the current challenge on ts_icontest to icon up something and stumbled across this one and was immediately won over, it's a shame it won't work as an icon but I kinda like having this version so all is good.

The Wizard of Oz eh, never even crossed my mind at the time but after reviewing it again and bearing that in mind, I can see what you mean now. *grins*

I totally ADORE the drabble you wrote, it's so cute and fun!! I'm touched that it inspired you into writing and feel honoured to have something written specifically by you for this piece. Thank you. ♥

\o/ I'm glad you like it so much. Seriously, I was worried posting it. So, yay! :oD

The Wizard of Oz popped instantly into my mind. And I'm sure Jim would disapprove of all of them.

[stargatesg1971.livejournal.com]

I did, I did. It was great and a lovely surprise too. You should never worry about posting your work, it's always entertaining, excellent and a great read. ♥

LOL, I'm sure Jim would disapprove of them all too. *grins*
