Partly because I couldn't stand her at first! For the first half of the season I was like, what happened to my brave hero who always tried to do the right thing? When she finely won me over in Dead Things it was so hard-earned that it meant more to me then any of the other seasons, where I liked her right away. I loved her in Dead Things because she was trying so hard to get back to who she was, the person who was righteous, and she felt so terrible about, well, everything to do with her relationship with Spike, from his monstrousness to her abuse, that I couldn't not love her.
The one you're using from Get it Done is beautifully tinted, so I'd say you're on the right track! That effect is very difficult in PB to do with any control although I love tinted and faded effects; high contrasts and chiaroscuro are easier.</>
Sorry that isn't one of my own icons (this one is). I wasn't thinking when I posted with that one. organza made it. I haven't brought many of my own icons out to play yet, since I'm still shy about them.

I use Gimp, because it's free.
