Ten Vincent Price icons

[jordannamorgan]

At the request of ztrooper. There might be more forthcoming, as I haven't yet gotten to do a thorough search for pictures.




As always, please comment and credit. You may add text to the blank icons, as long as it isn't crude or disrespectful. (Or you can ask me to add text, if you have a particular caption in mind. I left most of them blank because I haven't watched any of Price's movies in a while, and I wasn't feeling especially witty.)


1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
6. 7. 8. 9. 10.

#1: The Bat
#2: The Raven
#3, #9, #10: The Comedy of Terrors
The rest are either out-of-character stills or of unknown source.

No. 8 is my favourite. I may snatch it. Not sure if or when I'd ever actually *use* it, but 'tis brilliant. :-)

[jordannamorgan]

Really? I was never very satisfied with that one. :Þ

Thanks!

LOL. That's funny... Although people have admired icons I've made too that I didn't like, so I know the feeling.

ROFL... Like my horrible Willie the Whale icon that took second place a couple weeks ago. Derr. I hated that icon... but apparently someone liked it. Or was it a dearth of votes? :-p

Nice. Took #1. Will credit when used. Thanks!

Hello again. I commented on another post about looking through your icon community. Anyway, I've just found this set and I wanted to comment again because I adore Vincent Price. These are terrific and I've taken them all.

#4 is from the play 'Angel Street,' btw. It is the play that propelled him to stardom on the stage here. (It became the basis for the movie 'Gaslight.')

Thanks again for making such wonderful icons and textures!

[jordannamorgan]

Thank you! And thanks for the info. :)

I also made a handful of other, and perhaps better, Vincent Price icons rather recently. I wanted to do more then, and I got a few books about him from the library to scan pictures from, but that was just when my scanner decided to become nearly unusable. :Þ

Oh yes, I found those too, by clicking your tag list. I'm going to send that link to a friend of mine who is a major Abbott and Costello fan. She will be so happy to see them! Have you made any Laurel and Hardy icons? Do you know if anyone has ever screencapped Casablanca? I would like to find (or make) more Captain Renault icons. He is one of my top 10 favorite movie characters.

You may well be able to find "Casablanca" caps at cap_it or dj_capslock, since it is just about the most well-known classic film ever. (I checked the memories at classiccaps, but oddly enough, there was nothing for "Casablanca" there.)

I have not done Laurel and Hardy icons yet, but I'd be interested in doing that sometime. They're cute. *g*

Besides my own favorites, most of the stars I make icons of are the subjects of icontest challenges, either at classicicontest (which I run) or silver_stills. I will quite often do stars I'm not personally interested in at all, if the challenges include a few pictures that I find inspiring.

Ah, thanks. I found the caps at cap_it. The link at dj_capslock is broken, but I asked if they could repost it.

I've had a fan crush on Stan Laurel ever since I can remember. Laurel and Hardy are so hapless and silly. I love them.
