Seriously, this is the first time I try to make textures so have mercy, please! ;)

Nothing but my own material has been used to make this set.

PLEASE, DO NOT REPOST ANYWHERE AND CLAIM AS YOUR OWN.

DO NOT USE THESE TEXTURES TO MAKE YOUR OWN!! THANKS!

If you love to make icons but don't like competing in icontests, this is the place for you! You're competing against yourself...you submit a batch of icons and other community members vote on which ones are the best!

I just joined, and I suggest you do too!

I have exams this week and have been extremely busy, so I think that I owe a huge apology to my beloved mariarita for pretty much leaving the community to her...I haven't been posting nearly enough, and I apologize to you all. I'll try and update if I can. :-)

Just a message for you all...


- We do not think we're the best icon makers around..very far from that...but we always try our best to make something decent that people might like to use. :D

- We do appreciate members of this community and their willingness to give credit for the time we take to do what we do..as we value everyone else who's honest of course. HONESTY, whether it is online or in real life, DOES MATTER a great deal..and so does RESPECT, so, respect us and our work and we will always respect you!

P.S. Refer to this post if you haven't been accepted. You might find the answer you're looking for! ;)


P.P.S. Sorry if sometimes it seems we don't want to reply to your comment/s...It's not like that! We simply don't check this post often and we don't get comments emailed. If you need to tell us something urgent/important, just email Rita @ mariarita4you@yahoo.it and you'll surely get an answer. Thanks! :)

Since we have so many users/communities to give credit to for using their awesome brushes/textures/gradients, we will post them all together here. Also, we have added all the websites we took/will take pics/caps from.

If, by accident, we didn't credit anyone for using their brushes/textures/whatever, feel free to leave a comment and let us know so that we'll be able to add you to the list. :)

We will add you asap.

Thanks!:)


P.S. Since we will accept anyone, no matter what, please ADD US FIRST so we won't have to remind anyone to add us back! If you won't add us first you won't be added!


Not adding any more affiliates @ the moment, sorry..


P.P.S. If your icon journal/community gets deleted, if only momentarily, it'll be removed from this list. If it gets renewed and you wish to have it affiliated again, please leave another comment. :)

Welcome to italian_jewels, a graphics community maintained and moderated by mariarita and jewelles2.

We offer any kind of graphics: from icons to FO banners, headers, wallpapers, tutorials...
They are all made for you to use but credit is required. It's only a matter of respect in the end!

Membership is moderated so you will have to be granted permission to join before you will be able to view our graphics/memories and get access to everything we offer.


You can be sure we won't disappoint your expectations...BUT you HAVE TO abide by the rules, just like in any other community!


If you want to, REQUEST TO JOIN!



READ THIS BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE!!!


There's a chance you won't be accepted because we will be careful about who we will choose to add.
If your request is denied, then it might be because:

- You don't credit your icons, fo banners, headers...anything (that's also called stealing)! If those are YOUR OWN icons, CREDIT them too (I DO!), because for Christ's sake...nobody has a crystal ball!!!! lol

- You are a well known graphics thief (*shakes head*)

- You've already been removed in the past coz you don't follow our rules (*shakes head some more*)

- Your userinfo looks "suspicious" (basically, I follow my instinct here! lol)

- Your account is just a few hours/days old (aka it's suspiciously NEW)

- You are member of an icons sharing/stealing community (ewww! bleah!)

- Your journal is pretty much dead, meaning there are no posts/comments..nothing!

- Yours is not a real journal; you have friended only graphics communities/journals


Well, try your luck...

...and thanks for stopping by...
