This is just wrong.

The Leaves Now Fall, Too

♥

Dear Wizards of all ages... these petals have fell. In replacement, came the golden leaves... and now, they start to fall.
Not only are the leaves changing, so is the weather. It has been rainy lately; tropical storms have been rolling in my area. In their wake? Very cool weather. Today was the first day of cool-ness and what I'd like to call the actual start of Autumn.
Aye. Despite all these good things, I've been falling into old habits. I'm not eating as much nor sleeping as much-- this is partially my fault. I've been gaming too much; I need to work on schoolwork. Bad. And as soon as this wedding fiasco is done, I've gotta start eating again. I'm not eating much because the dress requires me to be the same weight as I was measured, as well as height... sleeping, because I've been spending a lot of time on Twitter to stay in touch with the Wizard101 Community.
However, I must break. I need to focus. In the space where I am breaking (as I call it) I'm going to be focusing on eating and sleeping and other things. I'm no longer the crazy kid who posted if they were getting a subway sammich.
See y'all soon. I'll try to post when I get free time.

Autumnal Preperations

Yep; it is defintley  that time of year.
You may have noticed the changes to the blog. This is all because I'm an excited holiday freak. Get used to it.

Ah. Exciting, no?


Today I wanted to give a few tips on Gimp.

1. Explore the tools. Take a screenshot of you in-game and just use the tools on it.
2. Begin using layers. This can be achieved by going to Layer>New Layer. If you need to blend something but not ruin the original photo, go to Layer>New Layer from Visible.
3. Download new brushes and graidents. To do this, go to deviantart.com.   Now, go to the search box and type in 'gimp brushes' or 'gimp gradients' 'gimp patterns'. Find a 'pack' and then make sure it says 'in Gimp ___es' under it. Click it, and preview what it says under the bottom to make sure there are no copyright things. Now, at the top right, there is a 'download' button. It will be a zip file. Find a thing to open it with, and then select the whole contents that have the file name at the end as GIMP___. Select, copy, and then go to your 'gimp' folder. Yes, there is a directory folder. There will be all the different patterns, tools, ect. You need to go to whatever type of thing you just downloaded (like, if you did a brush, go to the brushes folder). Paste into this and then close out the program of Gimp if it is running. Re-open it, and viola! Your brushes/gradient/pattern is there!
4. Do a ton of experimenting. Remember that even if things are not correct and looking well in the end, don't bother trying to fix it if it's not going to be published. Think of all the good aspects of the drawing.
5. All art is good. Skill does not make art; the effort put into the art, the inspiration, the liking of making it... that is what makes your art.

I hope that helped!

The More the Merrier

To start this off, I want to direct you all to something sentimental-- DANDEE!  and... that comes from a kid.

Recently, I've been in a holiday mood... this includes lots of Heath Bars... All Hallows Eve preparations...

A photo speaks a thousand words. It's much easier for me to speak thousands.

Off Wikipedia; this is exactly the sort of thing I would do.

Yes, they are re-using the decorations.

Malorn fits in nicely now.

Tower runs!

These three are all housing items I hope to have in the release of Wysteria furniture.

Disturbing conversation.

Tehe...

Of course, the man of the year himself!

Obviously, Ambrose carved this one.

Ghost Dragon!

And that sums up the past few days.

Equinoxial Moods

Bloggeh 1 - free slideshow

In a nutshell, I have been in such a autumn-l mood lately that I've been doing housework. Yeppers. Housework.
I broke out the Teryaki Beef Jerky... o_o
But ah, anyways, the slideshow is pretty much what I did in the past few days. ^^;;
Orz... here's something else. I felt like creating it....

 

Definitely ready for the Equinox.
