another for the Hall of Fame

[leelastarsky]

OK, here's another one for the Hall of Fame. Admittedly not anywhere near the class of the last two but it's irritating the crap out of me, so what the hell. And it's been an awful long time between entries! ;~P

This was a review for "Fire and Ice" over at Artistic Alley. A pic I had CLEARLY marked as coverart for an existing story. A Ron & Hermione story.

The drawing is real realistic and the color tones are wonderful. But then, when you suggest Fire and Ice, D/G would be more appropriate, after all, they are clearly linked to cold and hot, right?

Oh, of course!! Cos I'm totally gonna put Draco and Ginny on the cover of a Ron/Hermione story! Especially one that has Harry/Ginny on the side! *WACKS*



I feel so much better now. :~D

after all, they are clearly linked to cold and hot, right?

Though it's my OTP, even I would cringe at that comment :P

[leelastarsky.livejournal.com]

D/G are my 'sekrit otp' too, but I'm hardly going to put them on the cover of a R/Hr story. ;~P That was the bit that ticked me off the most.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_____faith/]

Totally understandable :) If only people would actually peruse through the clear descriptions before running off with assumptions and such...

And I had no idea D/G was your "sekrit otp" (Well, of course -- it's secret, haha)! Very interesting! You should draw them some time ;)

[leelastarsky.livejournal.com]

I have drawn them once - as a gift art for lysel, but I just don't have the time to draw for myself very often. But I really do enjoy a good D/G fic from time to time. Probably because I prefer Ginny's characterisation in those to the Ginny that is generally found the the H/G fics. *flees rotten vegies thrown by the H/G crowd* ;~)

[http://users.livejournal.com/_____faith/]

Hahaha, very nice! I think I've seen your giftart on Lysel's site, if I remember correctly, but I could be just hallucinating XD;

*Protects leelastarsky from rotten veggies*

As long as you keep chugging out more gorgeous HP art, we'll still love it despite the topic, I'm sure ^^

[neledarina.livejournal.com]

Do you have a link to that D/G picture? I would love to see your imagination of the two together (my OTP after R/Hr)!
That would be awesome. =)

[hardticket.livejournal.com]

personally I think the "real realistic" part show totally and utter intelligence on the reviewers part. *snort*. Sometimes reviewers make entirely no sense. And I hope you don't mind but I friended you :)

[leelastarsky.livejournal.com]

I know, but it was just one of those things that really irritated me. The sort of review you can't stop stewing over even though you know you should just forget it and move on. ;~)

And welcome! :~)

[hardticket.livejournal.com]

thanks for understanding my not quite there attempt at english in that post. It's been a long week. :s

Icon Love!! "Carrots!"

[atlanta06.livejournal.com]

My family and I are totally "Anne girl" fanpoodles. =D That's one of my favorite scenes ever.

Re: Icon Love!! "Carrots!"

[hardticket.livejournal.com]

Glad you like it. I love Anne and this is the pivotal scene. Yay! Carrots!

Re: Icon Love!! "Carrots!"

[atlanta06.livejournal.com]

And Gil was smitten with her ever since. It was so cute...

[leelastarsky.livejournal.com]

Yeah, me too; LOVE the icon! :~)

[hardticket.livejournal.com]

Thanks. crymeariver_ made it. She has some really pretty Anne Icons but this one was my fav.

[chickadilly.livejournal.com]

*can't stop staring at icon*

Love it! :D

[hardticket.livejournal.com]

Hee hee! I was the same way when I first got it. :)

[cariad2.livejournal.com]

There are a lot of stupid people in the world.

[leelastarsky.livejournal.com]

Sadly, this is true. ;~)

[belovedranger.livejournal.com]

I'm always amazed with the "criticism" people come up with - without understanding any of the context. *sigh*

[leelastarsky.livejournal.com]

I know. Most of the time I can just laugh it off, but this one caught me in the wrong mood and irritated the crap out of me. ;~P

[gryffinclaw.livejournal.com]

Somone is obviously clueless!

I have read that fic and love it!

Where is the art work if I may ask...I missed it...

[leelastarsky.livejournal.com]

:~)

[gryffinclaw.livejournal.com]

OMG...Your Ron is...damn.

You are really talented! Well done!

[leelastarsky.livejournal.com]

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. ;~)

[gryffinclaw.livejournal.com]

I am just glad your good talent supports my ships!

[junesrose.livejournal.com]

Ok, even this delusional Harmonian can put two knuts together and figure out why D/G should NOT be on the cover of a R/Hr fic!!!! (even if R/Hr is wrong!!! *snerk*) Ok, sorry, you know I'm taking the mickey out of you! But, uh... 'DOH!!!!

[leelastarsky.livejournal.com]

I know. ;~D If the fic had been H/Hr I would have drawn H/Hr! That's what irritated me the most - the fact that he bothered to comment and tell me what I should have drawn without reading what the pic was FOR. Grrr!

[atlanta06.livejournal.com]

Heeeeeere's your sign...

Plz to be not making my sister ship look stupid...

[chickadilly.livejournal.com]

*shakes head* It's kind of funny in a total WTF kinda way. The reviews some people leave really amaze me.

[lunadeath02.livejournal.com]

*facepalms*

dear commenter: You are so wrong. Open the window and let some of the wrong out.

[laverinth.livejournal.com]

The best review I ever got on a pic simply said "i hate this ship" X)

[leelastarsky.livejournal.com]

Argh! You just want to wack them over the head and say "Well why did you look at the picture then?! Do you like inflicting PAIN on yourself?!"
*stabs*

[hannio24.livejournal.com]

hmmm..... that would defeat the point of a Ron/Hermione, Harry/Ginny story.... makes me giggle people do!

[leelastarsky.livejournal.com]

Yes, people are bewildering!

[shocolate.livejournal.com]

No one would have noticed if you'd made it Ginny/Draco - and it would have made this bloke happy - he's right!

*snigger*

[leelastarsky.livejournal.com]

*cackles* you shit-stirrer you. ;~P

[lissannej.livejournal.com]

How dare you! How dare you not realise that Fire and Ice is copyrighted to Draco and Ginny and cannot be used to portray or describe any other pairing! Anyone would think you're drawing for you, or something.

[leelastarsky.livejournal.com]

Heh. This must be telepathy; I was just thinking about you!!
And, yeah, I know that's where he was coming from but really... doesn't stop me from wanting pull a Basil Faulty on him - wack upside the head! ;~D

[lissannej.livejournal.com]

Just thinking about me, eh? Scary! I was going to email you after I was done with LJ :D

[leelastarsky.livejournal.com]

See, I'm on cos the family are watching Supernatural (which is about to finish!) :~)

[glockgal.livejournal.com]

The idjit!!!! They don't even deserve the proper spelling.

Incidentally, I always associated (wrongly, I'm sure) 'Fire and Ice' as Ron and Draco, har har. Probably because of the R/D archive named such. TAKE THAT SILLY COMMENTER!

[leelastarsky.livejournal.com]

Actually, I think I associate it more with Ron/Draco too. But that's probably because I hang around here in LJ land and not FA. ;~)
*hugs you*
