Homecoming "Pictures"

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

So I was thinking that it would be fun is someone or several someones that are graphically talented (ie NOT me) did "homecoming pictures" for the couples attending the dance.

I know that it would be fairly labor intensive, but perhaps if each character provided the picture for you to use, it would help?

I dunno if anyone would be willing to do this or not - just thought it might be a fun idea to throw out.

I think if we divvied up the labour, I could do some. I was going to do one on CJ's request for the two of us.

I could definitely do a few, getting pics in advance from both parties would make it a lot easier. :)

Should we decide on one backdrop though? Did you want to find one?

I have a dress picked, but not sure how easy it'd be to stick Paige's head on the body

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

That might be an idea... I know we have a lot of talented icon makers around...

I am honestly the most graphically challenged person in the universe... so I wouldn't even know what type of background to chose... I do think that would be the way to go though aesthetically speaking.

Hmm... I was planning to do a google search for Kristen Bell and find an appropriate pic of her dressed up... I'm completely graphically challenged.

If someone got me pictures to blend I could do the actual blending.

I could do two or three. It's basically what I do for a living. The only thing is if I don't have good photographs to work from, the quality of the manip can suffer.

[the4thsister.livejournal.com]

Yeah I looked for a pic of paige in medieval wear without much luck and have made a bit of a thing about the dress now, I was planning on just assuming there were pictures, refering to them etc

[deadlikegeorge.livejournal.com]

Sorry. I should add that I'm a perfectionist, so photo quality is a preference, not a requirement. ;P

[drgrissom.livejournal.com]

That kind of stuff might be a bit more difficult, do you have a link to the dress pic?

Also, check out this for a backdrop

Ha ha or not. It made me laugh though. I'll see if I can't come up with something 80s/tacky enough, but if someone beats me to it, I won't cry.

Did you do an image search on Rose McGowan? She may have done something medieval that wasn't Charmed...

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

Have I mentioned lately that you rock :)

*blows kisses*

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

Cool!

I guess I'll start a list of volunteers :)

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

Cool!

I'm going to start a list of volunteers.

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

I'll start a list of volunteers and go from there.

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

I'll start a list of volunteers.

[the4thsister.livejournal.com]

I think so, but it might have just be Charmed realated as I thought she'd worn some that would work in an ep. Will check tomorrow cos I'm in the UK and it's very late!

[the4thsister.livejournal.com]

can get a link tomorrow no problem

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

Do you have an email address so I can send you the pics?

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

rhiannonrevolts at gmail.

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

Can I have an email addy so I can send you pics at some point?

[lizzy-turner.livejournal.com]

Yes. But I must stress that the pictures should, if at all possible, be whole pictures of the person, not trying to paste head on bodies. That, I can't do :*(

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

I'll *post flyers* about the pics and explain that sending the pics ahead of time is best and that they should google their character/actor/actress for a suitable picture.

Then I'll divvy up the assignments & email you guys the pics that go together :)

Sure!

Well, she's got red hair and a trident, but....



There's this one, but it's not high res:



Not very medieval but close. ;)

I have no photoshop skills, but I will adore forever anyone who manages this. What's a school dance without pictures to capture the moment: bad hair, braces, embarrassing fashion, bad skin and all?

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

my thoughts exactly :)

I have several volunteers already - I'll put up *flyers* tomorrow :)

[marieann-d.livejournal.com]

I was planning on doing something similar for Rogue and her date, so I can certainly do a few. Not a ton, tho. :)

Heh. One of the benefits of going as a canon couple. *g*

Here's the link, http://www.thedarkangel.co.uk/catalogue2.php?p=52 if it's no good I'd take any of the white dress from the site
