Title: Dean--other than that, I've no idea.
Artist: metamorphagi 
Notes: My first banner, seeing as how I'm kinda art-challenged; after spending an embarrasingly long amount of time on this, determined to actually make something worthwhile, it actually turned out better than I thought it would (well, IMO).  Let me know what you think?

Teaser:

renaissance2010
Turning to photography as a creative outlet during a valiant fight with breast cancer at age 34, renaissance10 survived and set up a photo contest to help raise funds for the Lavender Trust, a nonprofit that provides information and support to younger women with breast cancer. In the first two years, the competition brought in over £65,000 (that's $107,260.73 U.S.!), with entries from 130 countries last year. Renaissance10 recently joined LiveJournal to meet other passionate photographers and find supportive friends.

Holy buttercream frosting! If you have a sweet tooth for sugary goodness or a wandering eye for whimsical confection, this is pure ecstasy iced in deliciousness. Hailing the beloved cupcake as the artisinal canvas of choice, you'll enjoy recipes, photos, and bountiful tips to bake up a batch, whether your taste leans toward French classics or funky and flavorful.

mission101
With New Years in the offing, it's an ideal time to reflect on past accomplishments, make peace with disappointments, and refocus the lens on future goals. This community welcomes you to create a bucket list of 101 things you plan to accomplish in the next 1,001 days. Offering support, guidance, and inspiration, this is a great way to jumpstart those pesky resolutions.

So here's the deal.  Most of these are promo shots or screen caps and all the graphic work is done by me or Brie.  Most I've moved the boys closer together, some are colored etc.   These are the images that we have used on our banners - or - will be using soon.  people often say they like those images - so here you go! Feel free to use them.

Hope you like!!
