Plz for to hlp!

I am, as I have mentioned, redesigning cemurphy.net. I’ve got it nearly done, but I thought I’d put up random quotes from my books as part of the design.

some icons

Yesterday /Lithera pointed out some new images from some noir thing Marvel is doing, so I’ve made up some icons from the images. Not sure I’m *entirely* pleased with them, but I like the banner a lot, at least, and maybe I like some of the others too. :)
