I guess I forgot to clear out my pending icons folder for a while. *g* Here's a big batch of six dozen classic icons, including James Cagney [18]; Henry Fonda [12]; Spencer Tracy [9]; Lana Turner [8]; Gregory Peck [8]; Charles Boyer [6]; Jean Simmons [3]; Joan Blondell [2]; Frank Capra [2]; Cary Grant [1]; and 3 different icons from Dracula, including an animation.

Basically a little bit of everything... )

These icons have appeared as usage examples for my texture sets, but I'm displaying them here in a separate icon post. It includes Grace Kelly [8]; Lauren Bacall [8]; Louise Brooks [8]; Cary Grant [4]; Lana Turner [4]; Fredric March [4]; Joan Blondell [3]; Olivia de Havilland [3]; and Gene Tierney [3].

Too sleepy for a humorous cutline... )
jordannamorgan: Danny Kaye and Virginia Mayo as Walter Mitty and Rosalind Van Horn, "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty". (Southern Belle)

Two small texture sets: a very pretty pastel one, and a rather bright noisy one. :)

Forty-two icons this month, starring: Cary Grant [10--also including Kate Hepburn and Grace Kelly]; Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers [8]; Dick Powell [8--also including Ruby Keeler]; Alice Faye [6]; Joan Blondell [5]; Abbott and Costello [1]; Danny Kaye [1]; Fredric March/Clara Bow [1]; William Powell/Myrna Loy [1]; Errol Flynn/Olivia de Havilland [1].

Sweetness and sass )

By the way, I thought I should give notice that my iconage for this month may be less prolific. I've lately been feeling an urge to write instead of playing around in PaintShop, so hopefully I can put some time toward striking at my literary aspirations while the iron is hot. *g*

Yet another little Christmas gift, for [livejournal.com profile] wabbitseason: a wallpaper featuring Cary Grant and Rosalind Russell in His Girl Friday.

Get back in there, you mock turtle! )

I've hit a stride with my icons; out of the thirty-eight in this selection that were entered in icontests, roughly half of them placed. The award banners are now on display in my trophy case. Including some previously unreleased extras, there are a total of 53 icons here: 40 classics and 13 X-Men. Enjoy!

Classics: 9 Grace Kelly, 6 Humphrey Bogart, 4 Gary Cooper, 4 Olivia De Havilland, 4 My Man Godfrey, 3 James Cagney, 2 Cary Grant, 2 Barry Fitzgerald, 2 Anna May Wong, 1 Fredric March, 1 Danny Kaye, 1 Pat O'Brien, 1 Audrey Hepburn )

X-Men: 7 Wolverine, 2 Beast, 1 Cyclops, 1 Magneto, 1 Storm, 1 Angel )

I've only done a handful of icons so far this month, but I can tell you already that my next assortment will include Bud Abbott and Lou Costello, the subjects of a current icontest challenge. Wish me luck with them! *g*

On the last Sunday of every month, I will be posting the month's roundup of challenge icons, along with "challenge rejects" that I made for icontests but chose not to submit (and perhaps any other loose icons I have on hand). Most of them will probably be classic film-related in the foreseeable future, but just about anything might turn up.

Since this is the first such post, all of the icons I've made for [livejournal.com profile] classicicontest are here, as well as some recent strays that I missed in my backposting. But amidst all of the old news (at least for some of you), there are a few icons here that have never been displayed before.

25 icons: James Cagney, Danny Kaye, Frank McHugh, and many more )
jordannamorgan: Leslie Howard as Professor Horatio Smith, "Pimpernel Smith". (Frozen Light)

As promised, this batch contains more and better icons--twenty in all.

By request, here is my first batch of icons from His Girl Friday, starring Cary Grant, Rosalind Russell, and Ralph Bellamy. There are fifteen here, and if I use all of the bases I made, there will ultimately be more than thirty.

Sorry, no witty cutline. I haven't seen the film in a while. )

The next batch may have somewhat more clever captions. And a bit more of Cary by himself.
