THURSDAY GRAPHICS POST!

If you were savvy, you might have noticed that in the confusion of New Year's Eve, and my excitement about the Party Post, I, err, forgot to post this last Thursday. Sorry about that!

Without further ado, here is the weekly post where members can link to their icons, wallpapers, macros, and other misc. graphics.

As always, we recommend you link to your journal, rather than posting all your icons in a single comment. A preview of a few icons/one of your wallpapers (preferably resized, or a thumbnail) is the way to go.

Punch it! ♥

Troubled comic Artie Lange landed in the hospital after stabbing himself nine times in an apparent suicide attempt, sources told The Post.

Lange's frantic mom called 911 Saturday morning after she entered his Hoboken apartment and found the bloodied funnyman, a law-enforcement source said.

Lange sustained six "hesitation wounds" and three deep plunges. A source close to Lange's management team confirmed that the Howard Stern sidekick stabbed himself, adding that his mother had come to visit him that day to drop off food. Surgeons managed to save Lange despite heavy bleeding.

"We all have our demons," Stern said on-air this week, referring to Lange's past battles with addiction. "Artie has given this show tremendous moments of great comedy. He's a tremendous contributor. He is a good man. Don't forget how great he is."

Mariah is blaming it on the alcohol.

At Wednesday's People's Choice Awards, the diva was asked about her sloshy speech Tuesday at the Palm Springs International Film Festival awards gala.

"I don't even know what it was," she told reporters. "I heard clapping. You know, Lee [Michaels, Precious director] and I hadn't seen each other in a long time, and he started right in with all these inside jokes, and I was like, OK.

"We were celebrating and having little splashes, and I hadn’t eaten, and that's what it was. We were celebrating the movie and all the exciting stuff going on. There's a time for celebration and a time for not - but really technically, it's a party atmosphere. We had splashes of champagne. I love Lee, but he’s a bad influence."

Carey was the butt of jokes by Sean Penn and Jason Reitman, director of Up In the Air. "I think it feels just as good as Mariah Carey feels right now," Reitman joked onstage while accepting an award at the show. "I should really leave now. I don't think it gets better than that."

What a tough life for Up in the Air Golden-Globe nominee Anna Kendrick – jetting between film sets with a two-time PEOPLE Sexiest Man Alive winner and with one of the world's favorite vampires.

Shedding light on shooting Up in the Air with George Clooney and Twilight with Robert Pattinson, Kendrick, 24, tells Ellen DeGeneres on the TV's host's Jan. 8 show, "George gave me such a hard time about shooting Twilight. Whenever I came back, it was like, 'Oh sorry, this isn't the Twilight set. You're not working with Mr. Handsome.' He called Rob 'Mr. Handsome.' "

But Kendrick admits she helped egg on the pseudo-competition, bringing back a GQ magazine that she had Pattinson sign, "To George, Best of Luck. Hang in there. Love Rob."

Clooney's response? He signed his Esquire magazine, "Dear Rob, Thanks for all the inspiration. I'm a huge fan. Love, George, two-time 'Sexiest Man Alive.' "

Young, handsome, regal, yet casual and relaxed.

Sounds good. It is no surprise that Prince William and Prince Harry are very pleased with the first official oil portrait showing just the two of them.

The artist has helped nature a bit, replenishing Williams' already thinning hair, but used a realistic depiction of Harry's nose, which was broken in a high school rugby match.
