There will be no Veronica Mars recap this week as I, uh, kinda slept through the show. (Dammit.) I've pretty much given up on doing last week's as well. Really, I think it's the stress--and the school stress should be totally over in a week, so just hang on for a little while.

(So many more people read the Lost recaps that I'll see if I can't manage that one.)

So. Trying to empty out my head and do something relatively mindless--which icon style do you like better: Flare (left) or Caslon (right)?

ETA (or rather FYI): You may not be able to tell the difference, but Flare is a cleaner, bolder font that reads better. Caslon is a little quirkier, and is actually one of the fonts (or very close to one of the fonts) used for the Lemony Snicket books, so it's sort of apropos. It's also sort of... harder to read at this size. So... yeah, I think we're going with Flare.

Left. And ooh, spiffy new HA icons!

[kaytethinks.livejournal.com]

Hee. There isn't much of a difference to my eye, but I think I prefer the ones on the left.

Left.

BTW, you do what you need to do. We can cope without recaps, believe me. :) For heaven's sake, YOU'VE BEEN SICK!!!

*hug*

Flare ;-)

[bikutoria.livejournal.com]

Flare, left.

[lylassandra.livejournal.com]

I'm going to rock the boat and say RIGHT!

And seriously, calm down. We will be ok without recaps. Personally, being so deprived might actually force me to finish my work tonight.

I was looking at the pic before your fyi, didn't notice the text first time.
To me, the left sans serif Flare is cleaner than the serif Caslon, which looks a little more jagged at this size. Actually Flare is probably a little serifed it appears.

[vampychick.livejournal.com]

Definitely left.

[maramala.livejournal.com]

I'd like to go against the flow, but the left one just looks so much better. ;)

[chenpion.livejournal.com]

Flare. Didja really need to ask this one? =P

[kittygopounce.livejournal.com]

Flare. It seems to alter the balance of the overall image, for the better.

[24-centuries.livejournal.com]

I like the Flare one as the Caslon one makes my eyes hurt! Don't know why but they feel like they're going cross when I read it .. =\

Anywho -- seems like you all ready chose Flare anyways but thought I'd throw in my two cents =)

[lee-in-limbo.livejournal.com]

Seconding your thoughts about Flare. Caslon is nice but at this size it looks cramped and uneven. In small spaces, simplification has its virtues.

L o L,
likes Caslon quite a bit though.

[dramedy.livejournal.com]

I like Caslon, but at the smaller size, and with the icon's layout, i think Flare just looks sharper. :D I played on this font site earlier today, that had whole bunches and you could preview your own text in a different size in a BUNCH of fonts. wheee that was fun. Yay for not having finals...

[foresthouse.livejournal.com]

Ohhh, but I like the right one!
(it's the right one!)
That was a bad pun!
Sorry :)

[ambiguousreason.livejournal.com]

i really do like flare better. and no worries about the recaps. :]

[edda.livejournal.com]

I like them both, but I'm slutty that way.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

I am totally going to make you some new Eowyn icons, by the way.

[edda.livejournal.com]

^.^ Thanks!

One in armor, please? Plus whatever else you like. And can you make me a Batgirl icon from the animated show? The original redheaded Barbara Gordon? Actually one of each is enough because I know you're busy whenever you have the time like Christmas Break is totally cool plzkthxbai.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Done! Go to icon_wh0res (why are you not signed up omg?).

[illmantrim.livejournal.com]

Caslon looks better!

[meredith-mae.livejournal.com]

Anyone want to take bets on whether or not babymama will die in tonight's episode?

FYI, Matthew Fox and Kate Notinsale are on the cover of entertainment weekly with the line, "The biggest cult show since the X-files." Please don't make me go into why I get EW in the mail. It's a long story.

[mustang-bex1126.livejournal.com]

NO! Not babymama! Charlie won't be able to take it, and there's no crackfarthing to comfort him.... I'm seriously going through freaking LOST withdrawl, unfortunately I MISSED the last episode so it's been 3 weeks since I've induldged in my newest obsession... was anyone else TOTALLY freaked out when Hook says that to Wendy in Peter Pan?! ~shudder~ To borrow from our wonderful blogmuse, omgwtfpedophilia

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Hee. "YOU are my new obsession." I saw that in the theater with my mom and we were like OMGWENDYCEST, and all parents in the audience--you hear them audibly suck in their breath, and then Hook's all like, "And totally not Peter Pan and his whereabouts at all, why do you ask?," and then they all let out this sigh of relief. Heh.

[meredith-mae.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but I'm getting sick of only the peripheral characters dying. I know they intended to kill Jack in teh first episode, and I think it would be a better show if we knew ANYONE can die at any time, and no one is safe. Makes it more... er, real. You know, minus the whispering trees and invisible dinosaurs.

[lizzyrose89.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I agree. Flare's better.

Awww, man... I LOVED your Veronica Mars recaps. Now I am going to cry in a corner somewhere...

Oh, and flare's better.
