No, I was completely ignorant of the very concept before you pointed out... Or maybe I just felt that facedoubles are better to be avoided, both because of mine and others personal preferences.MaggieoftheOwls wrote:You know facedoubles are a thing, right?

I don't know if it's typically braided, but there's "Jessica Warren" from "Bones" (example), played by Laura Spencer, who has her hair in a plait on the show. Is that what you mean?ErinFlight wrote:Does anyone know of an actor, any gender, who has long red hair that is typically braided?
They don't need to have existing icons. I don't mind making my own from photos.
I haven't actually tried it with Dreamwidth yet, just the Glowfic Constellation, so I'm not sure how they interact, but you can use Paint.NET to select a region of a picture, then "Image > Crop to Selection", and then you can resize it manually to 100x100 using "Image > Resize" and entering 100 for the width and height (de-select "Maintain aspect ratio" if the region you selected wasn't properly square, and it'll stretch/squish it to fit). If you want something more heavy duty, GIMP is like a free Photoshop.ErinFlight wrote:Also, Kappa is right about Dreamwidth messing up icons. It insists on messing up a lot of mine, even after I've fixed them up on my computer. I think it may be the program I'm using, they aren't properly compressed so dreamwidth insist on doing it again and then messes up the cropping. Does anyone know of a free program that works for them? Thank you!
Thanks! She could maybe work? The braid is what I mean, but I don't know if the actress would work well with only the face casts from Bones.Throne3d wrote: I don't know if it's typically braided, but there's "Jessica Warren" from "Bones" (example), played by Laura Spencer, who has her hair in a plait on the show.
