	^_^ I suggested a link to it for this week's Tardis Times (doctor who fandom specific newsletter) I might make some banner/icons today for it! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Thank you! I'm trying to stagger the info the newsletters that I know, but I don't know many, like the Tardis Times. g That would be so very awesome. I might try and make some myself, but the text fonts I have on GIMP are terrible. Think I could make some and have you write the text for me? bats her eyes (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh, that's lovely! Very beautiful. Hmm, how about "because Tosh deserves some love!" or "because Tosh is awesome!" I'll try and make a few for other fandoms later today. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

:-) Thanks.

I made one with the text because Tosh needs love. (because she does! her actress is the only actress/actor on Torchwood who doesn't have her own fansite, :-( )

And a playful Martha Jones banner (for Doctor Who)

	She doesn't have a fansite? :/ The Tosh banner has the same text as before. Ha, the Martha one! XD (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Torchwood specific banner. dani_meows 2011-02-17 03:11 am UTC (link)
	Nope. For a recent challenge for a torchwood icontest that I play with sometimes we had to use pictures of the actors/actresses out of character and Naoko Mori was the only one without at least one. :-( Which is a shame because she is lovely. It would help if I uploaded the right one: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v73/danirosealoise/chromaticbannertosh2.png (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Re: Doctor Who specific bridgetmkennitt 2011-02-17 02:12 am UTC (link)
	Just as gorgeous! The font is divine and I love the simplistic wording. I made a basic Star Trek banner, but I couldn't recolor that part by Sulu. I don't know why. If you could fix it and make it purdy, that'd be awesome. ^^ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	loads and plays around with a few variations :-) It's one of my favorite fonts. It's called Fancy pens and I adore it, sadly it doesn't do well on icons though! (It only looks good in the larger pixels) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I like banners 4 & 3! Especially number 3. Wow, that's just gorgeous.

I'll collect a bunch of your banners and save them onto my website so the bandwidth being used is mine instead of yours, kind of like how I did it for the previous banners. Should there also be some multifandom ish banners? Like X from fandom A, Y from fandom B, and Z from fandom C? I'll try to make a backbone banner for that.

	^_^ Glad you like them. Multifandom banners would be good. Now to figure out who I want to claim. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I feel like I'm just repeating myself, but gorgeous! I found some pictures for some other multifandom banners. After seeing your multifandom banner, I didn't know how to rearrange them that would work for you.

	Yay, more beautiful banners! (Who is that next to Martha in the first banner and next to Camille in the other?) You are amazing, my dear. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: multifandom dani_meows 2011-02-19 11:07 pm UTC (link)
	I'm not sure of the actresses name but her character name is Tish. She's Martha's sister. In the other banner that's Kate Freelander (from Sanctuary) who is played by the lovely Agram Darshi. (She's also in my icon). Her character is a very mercenary rouge type. Thanks. (Reply to this) (Parent)
