I am also uploading my icons (for now) here on LJ instead of on Photobucket since they are such a pain about saving images on Firefox. We'll see if I stick to it.
I've been loading my icons more often to LJ instead of Photobucket, because PB can be such a pain when it develops glitches, but it's still pretty infrequently when I remember to. OTOH, I've gotten in the habit of loading all my posters/banners to scrapbook unless it's too large and won't display the full size image (anything over 1000 pixels I think.) Let us know how that works out for you!
BTW, can you explain what exactly "hot linking" means in plain English? I fear I may have done it without intending to.
Now back to the subject at hand - this is a FABULOUS set, I'm so glad you got it finished in time! There can never be too many good icons of our beloved Miss Summers in this world (so says I) and these are wonderfully subtle, not flashy; they reward repeat viewings. Several of these are fantastically clever and witty (Provided Texture), and although some use familiar images several of these I've not seen as icons before and even the familiar images look very fresh.
Personal favorites: Close Crop, BW + close, Provided Texture - you picked the PERFECT episode and image for that texture and the tree is so well integrated I wouldn't notice it if I weren't specifically looking, Peaceful (again the perfect image but OUCH....), Category 1 and 3 - again, I love how subtly you interpreted the prompt; AC4 and 5, Alt 22. WELL DONE!
