"Searching for Jim" story banner for sparrow2000

Yes, I did it -- I finally finished the story banner I promised to [livejournal.com profile] sparrow2000 for her story Searching for Jim. I kept her waiting since January; I hope it's been worth the wait!

On top is the latest version. In my original versions (below) I had Jim as "the man in the moon" but on second thought, that was probably a bit too whimsical to fit the mood of the story. So I've revised it, and this is the result:




This is the original version:


And the second version with a lighter backdrop (and a slightly brighter Jim too):



And now I'm really going to stop making new versions!

Terrific work, and really captures spirit of the story.

Whatever for? *lol* Of course I LOVE making revisions of my own banners so take that with a barrel of salt.

I feel like I'm the only one because most people post the "one and only" version but I often post several and let folks decide what they like best. Also, I find I often have to go through several revisions before the project decides what it wants to be.

Which is to say, revisions? bring 'em on! :D

came out super nice DD - I love how you used Jim Morrison and you certainly did achieve your quality of friendship between them. With so often Xander being set in a "negative" perspective in many of the earlier stories and series, it's nice to seem them in this contrast.

Lovely piece.
