Some requests and the 4400

[usuallyhats]

First, a request for help: can anyone recommend me some good icon/banner/wallpaper tutorials? Ideally ones that involve textures and/or masks, as these things are a bit of a closed book to me. I feel like I'm stuck in a bit of a rut, icon making wise - crop, screen, soft light, play with curves and maybe fill layers if I'm feeling adventurous, slap on some text if I can think of any - and although I'm quite happy with what I'm making, I'd also like to try some new things. In the spirit of reciprocity, my resource post has a list of tutorials I like.

Last night I watched the first few episodes of The 4400 S3. Am I right in thinking it's cancelled now? A shame if so, but I can kind of see why - the previouslies confused me and I've seen all the episodes (admittedly about a year or two ago now), so I can't imagine what anyone tuning in for the first time would think. But that's also what I like about it - there are all these ongoing plotlines, things develop and change and move on a bit every episode.

Since I've already asked for advice once this entry, I might as well do it again - anyone got any cake/biscuit recipes they feel like sharing? I am hosting Stitch 'n' Witch on Tuesday and feeling a little uninspired in the baking department. (the_smut_fairy, tigerpixie, any requests?)

Ah, I thought so, but it looked a bit open-ended on imdb! Oh well, I still have nearly two seasons to watch in that case. Thanks for the confirmation!
