Several people have offered suggestions/requests in different fandoms including episodes, actors, specific images, movies, and *cough*

Anyway, there is one thing I haven't been able to do, either on my own or with the help of tutorials: red icon coloring. I was hoping to replicate the effect of the Pounded Like This icons without the benefit of the overlay effect Aruna used on the vid itself. I didn't think this would be so difficult, given that it was my textures that were used in the overlay, but somehow everything I've tried has come out WAY too red or, like, pink. I've tried color balance, both on the base and through an adjustment layer, same with curves, and I've tried gradient/texture overlays. Any ideas or tutorial recommendations would be greatly appreciated on this one.
Apologies to those folks waiting to read SG-Claus. It's going to be way too long for
