Costume Drama Wallpapers

A massive batch of costume drama wallpapers, ranging from Pride & Prejudice 2005, the BBC's North & South, Jane Eyre, Emma, Lorna Doone, and 1950s fashion.

As ever, do not claim these as your own, please credit/comment if taking, and enjoy!

PLEASE NOTE: Numbers are above, not below, the wallpapers, and please tell me which ones you're taking, not "snagging a few!" because I worked really hard and am of a curious nature and I'd like to know what's popular. Thanks! ;-)

The wallpapers are all uploaded to my new deviantART account. I've started doing my wallpapers there rather than Photobucket because they allow larger resolutions for wallpapers, and I think it uploads faster. ;-)

A bit of a promotion... A good friend of mine,

midenianscholar, has opened a CafePress shop for Jane Austen and North & South fan merchandise. Ranging from pretty to pop culture to cute and clever, I dare you to not enjoy looking at these! Who doesn't want to drink coffee with Mr. Thornton each morning, or drive around with Mr. Darcy? ;-D

Oh my goodness! You are amazing! Remarkable job!

I LOVE A&E's Lorna Doone but never find graphics for it. Thank you thank you thank you so much for making a WP of that and Jane Eyre! I'll definitely be saving those and the P&P ones of course.

Aww, thank you!! :-D

I love it, too, and I agree that it's sadly under-appreciated!! I've only come across one other person who did them. (did you know I made a batch of LD icons a while back? They'd be under "mini-series: Lorna Doone" in my tags...)

I thought your name looked familiar... then I realized you were the girl I was discussing libraries with on

ladyneferankh's journal.

These wallpapers are gorgeous, unfortunately, I will not be taking any. You have a very nice colection.

Thanks! Glad you stopped by. :-)

carmz_supremacy on August 20th, 2008 12:09 am (UTC)

Alright a bit much..., but I took 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 14. Heh. Couldn't help myself. :) But my favorite have got to be 4 and 5 because of the Richard Armitage yumminess. :) Also 9 because whatever you did makes it look like the viewer is focused only on them. Anyway, love 'em!

olde_fashioned on August 20th, 2008 01:57 am (UTC)

Heheh, thank you! I hope you enjoy them, and #9 was a bit of an experiment, but it turned out pretty well, I think. ;-)
