Notes:
- font is Stonehenge
- balance is hidden, as usual
- EQ/PL toggles are hidden until selected
So, while trying to avoid arrogance, I will summarily say that all the Legolas skins out there that I have seen plain suck. This is my second attempt to fill the lack of decent Legolas skins -- the first one fell as flat as anyone else's. Not so sure about it this time.
The title is kind of an allusion to the argument Gimli had with Eomer about, figuratively, the beauty of the dawn versus the twilight, clearly symbolic for the waning of the Elves. [If you don't know what I'm talking about, you ought to read the books, is all I'll say.]
Purists will argue that this had absolutely nothing to do with Legolas, and I agree, but it just seemed to fit his seemingly hopeful expression, sitting at the Council of Elrond. I would say that his willingness to join the Fellowship indicates that he still had faith in Middle Earth. Unlike the overly-bitter movie version of another certain Elf at the Council. *ahem*
So it's a shot at false depth via a misplaced allusion. But who cares? Besides, admit it, you would have downloaded this skin no matter WHAT it was called. XP
I ended up putting a lot more image-editing work into this skin than I originally expected to. Most of it is relatively subtle, aside from cutting out the image. It's a rarer shot, which is one of the reasons I chose it. Crappy as they may be, there are simply way too many skins already of the "typical" images, though I may eventually revisit those as well.
I'm actually most proud of the playlist; it's very different from what I usually do -- though that would describe the entire skin -- and I think it came out the best. Well, overall, it was a very educational experience.

If you're roughly my age, this should bring back nice memories. If not, you probably have no idea what it is.
But at least it's orange.
