This is a static copy of In the Rose Garden, which existed as the center of the western Utena fandom for years. Enjoy. :)

Re: Le SKU LiveJournal (and IRG!) Icons.
I just wanted to let everyone know that I have been using icons in this thread mercilessly and sometimes without proper credit. So, thank you, and sorry for being a dumbass about it.

Re: Le SKU LiveJournal (and IRG!) Icons.
Been a while, but I made a few new icons recently! Some are remakes of old icons, and some are entirely new.

Re: Le SKU LiveJournal (and IRG!) Icons.
Is there an icon topic anywhere else in the forums? I have some icons but none of them are Utena related.

Re: Le SKU LiveJournal (and IRG!) Icons.
Looks like there's an old one here, so you'd probably be good to either reply to that one or start a new one!

Eryn, your icons are always so lovely. 
I may snag the first one on the third row for my LJ.

Re: Le SKU LiveJournal (and IRG!) Icons.
Thank you! And go right ahead! 
I forgot, but I have a version of that one that's ideal for Plurk and other sites with larger avatars as well:

Re: Le SKU LiveJournal (and IRG!) Icons.
I have icons too, but as they're both fairly large batches you can check them out here and here. Of course, I plan on making plenty more Utena icons so I'll link you guys to them once I have them posted.
...I would be endlessly happy if someone used one of my icons. :'D
(Probably because they're .png, they have a fairly big size, so you can upload them to Picnik and convert them to .jpg.)
Andddd, have a sneak peek from the batch I'm currently working on. They look so much better than my older ones, orz.

Wish granted! I had been wanting to switch to an Utena icon for some time now, and this one was too pretty to resist. Thank you!
How would you like to be credited? Would a line in my signature would be okay?

Re: Le SKU LiveJournal (and IRG!) Icons.
I really like your icons Luute! Some of the fanart ones are especially cool. I might use them on my LJ but I'm curious to know the original artist. Could you link me to them?

If someone asks me about it, I'll make sure to point them to your post, then. I saved a few of your icons from the batches on LJ, and I'm currently using one with credit in my LJ account. Thank you again!

Thank you so much! And sure, here they are! All the others are official art.
Number six and seven, number eight, number nine, and finally number ten.

My Photoshop is back, so I decided to show some love for the shadowplayers.

Re: Le SKU LiveJournal (and IRG!) Icons.
Of course you can! 
And thanks a lot for leaving a comment. It's my second time posting icons not in my cosy Russian-speaking SKU community where we prefer 120x120 icons and where everybody has got accustomed to my experiments.

I've recently converted my girlfriend to Utenaism and she's been noticing that a ton of Emilie Autumn's songs really fit Utena characters. Emilie Autumn is a not too well-known singer, I think, but she's brilliant. She plays the violin and was a child prodigy at it, and all of her songs contain a lot of dark fairytale themes. I had to make some Akio icons with "Dead is the new alive" and I want to make some more EA lyric Utena icons.
http://img524.imageshack.us/img524/9548 … ivemc0.jpg http://img508.imageshack.us/img508/8060 … ivedt0.jpg
Indeed, there are similarities between RGU and Emilie Autumn, both stylistic and lyrical. Emilie's concerts even include shadow theatre! I had the pleasure to see her performing in two Finnish cities last week, and she has a smart number of fans around here. In fact, the line in front of the venue in Helsinki was the longest line I have ever seen for any club concert! It's understandable, though. Emilie's current tour, The Asylum "Fight Like a Girl", is absolutely orgasmic. Both raw and delicate.
Those are some nice icons you made, SleepDebtFairy!
