Haven’t been able to come up with any major ideas for designs, but I did make two emoticon packs. I hope you can find a use for them.

Hello! It’s been a while, unfortunately, but a new semester’s starting and if I’m lucky I’ll have more time for this sort of thing soon. Anyhow, I hope you’ll all be interested to know that I finished writing a guide to choosing a web host that I’ve been working on for a few days. In it I compare eight different hosting services that were recommended by other webmasters at Icecaves.net. Click here to view the guide if you’ve got a moment!

Corroded Copper Textures

Posted Dec 16, 2011. Filed under design, resource. 3 comments.

Hello! I added a texture pack with images of copper plates. They have some really excellent grungey textures on them, so have a look. I can’t wait to use them myself.

In other news, I got Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 the other day, and it’s really quite a disappointment. I haven’t found any features that make it better than PsE 4.0. Rather, it just seems simplified (and stupified) so people who don’t know anything about image editing can make kitschy images. Feels really unprofessional, and definitely not worth what it costs.

I made a little teaser post about ink smears a while ago, but never got around to making any content until today. Anyhow, that aside I now have a wonderful brush set you can download on that theme. C: Click the image to go to the brush page.

Enjoy.

Tutorial on Opacity

Hello again, chaps. I’ve got another tutorial for you today, which you can read here. It’s on opacity, and focuses on changing background opacity, since that’s a very useful application of it. The tutorial explores three different methods of changing opacity, one of which is a clever trick I came up with myself. Hope you find it useful.
