I object to your claims Posts: 15,025 Group: =SB= Queens Member #9,640 Joined: January 9, 2009 Gender: Female Country: United States of America 3DS Friend Code: 1891-1489-0768 Nintendo ID: Agent_Blaire Game Currently Playing: Yoshi's Island	So, a little fact that you may or may not know about me - I happen to be interested in a career in graphic design. And all dreams have to start somewhere, do they not? So, since the new year is coming up and that jazz, that means resolutions. And one of my resolutions is to create at least one design a week to keep my skills sharp. This can include things like signatures, avatars, designs for posters, re-imaginings of art for game cases, ect. Plus, my new computer came with Photoshop and I don't want the program to go to waste~ So, I guess I could start with the above (simple) design I created as sort of a cover page. Basically it was the result of combining two tutorials to create what you see above. Not my best work, but this is coming from someone who has not used Photoshop in years. I'm hoping with practice and such I'll get back to the skill level I was at before. (And yes, I had another art topic before this, but that hardly ever got updated and I figured a fresh start was in order here)

It's not that bad, actually. You made it out to be something horrible in shackside, but its not.

'Fraid all I have right now is Photoshop Elements 9. So, anyway, I experimented with something I found on a tutorial and came up with this thing; I guess it's some sort of abstract advertisement or something? shrug

Spoiler: click to toggle What you see here is the header for a blog I'm starting. I hope to have the first entry up tomorrow. It'll primarily be a Sonic game review blog, but I will not be afraid to branch out into other horizons (hence the name) when it comes to games.

'Fraid all I have right now is Photoshop Elements 9. So, anyway, I experimented with something I found on a tutorial and came up with this thing; I guess it's some sort of abstract advertisement or something? shrug I can swear there's something making an appearance from all those white layers. (Note, I might not know what I'm referring to.) But serious I can't the be the only one seeing an characteristic image next to the IPod image. First one was awfully shiny. He he! In a good way. Looking good Blaire, I'm sure you'll improve as you progress adding something new each week.
