Icon

Making icons with GIMP is so hard. Nothing works as I expect it to, but I don't want to install that "make GIMP act like Photoshop" package either. That feels like defeating the purpose of trying to learn a new tool... by making it behave like another one, that it actually isn't.

I'm actually not that pleased with how Astarion came out in this icon either - it looks somewhat strange and blurry, but it stays until I've found or made some better icons of him.

Guh, this guy is taking over my mind, can you tell?

A little bit of photoshop art

I have Photoshop now, so hopefully that'll mean some new icons and some more fun with graphics from now on.

The first thing bigger than an icon that I've made, is this little fan graphic featuring a certain Duncan Laurence:

Little update

Tue, 04 Apr 2017 16:52:06 GMT

I'm in a bit of a weird mood today. Maybe I can blame it on the weather, which is grey and cloudy in the worst possible way right now. I don't mind cloudy weather per se, but sometimes it just makes me depressive. Don't know if that's the weather's fault or just my fault for having an off day, though.

It's probably not necessary to mention that I didn't get much useful stuff done today either. No writing, at least. And not much else either, honestly. I slept for a while, then tried to make some icons... which didn't work as I suddenly couldn't come up with a cool text even though I had made a text space... so I just ended up resizing a couple of pics that I had found online to icons instead. That's not really "making" something - it's just taking something and adjusting it to my needs.

Now going to look up a video on how to get arrows easily in Zelda: Breath Of The Wild, as I seem to ALWAYS run out of arrows... and there's supposedly a glitch to get them easily, except I don't understand how it works yet. Next stop: Youtube. Then there will hopefully be some game time later tonight.

And more sleep. Or maybe a tiny bit of writing, if my mood will be better by then. Let's hope for that...
