Breakthrough: BLINKING GRAPHIC




This is by Lisz, lovely. I will do a similar one soon, HOPEFULLY.



Graphic Idol: Lisz

This is her story:


I remember those younger days, scanning through stardoll magazines, not really reading the articles but skipping the pages until I got to a graphic. A wonderful graphic. I wondered if I'd ever be able to do such a thing... and so that was the day I tried. The day I made my first graphic. Here it is-


I was extremely proud of it at the time. I was so happy that I'd finally made my own graphic, minus the guitar which I took from the pre-made photoshop graphics category. I was so happy, and I didn't know about the polygonal lasso tool or anything, I just filtered around with my image and used brushes to change the legs. I was really happy. I showed some people and they didn't say much. I wondered what I was doing wrong... I kept on practising, and eventually... really slowly, my graphics got better... and better:

I was satisfied. I didn't set myself challenges, and I thought I was doing well. I stayed on this level for a while, but once my jealousy roared after seeing the intricate detailed graphics of newer magazines, I decided to really kick it up a notch. I wanted to work for a magazine... I wanted to work for one of the big apples in the buisness!


looking back, my graphics weren't good, but I DO NOT regret making them, I am still proud of them, because they are the canvas from which I escalated.

And today I do things like this:


and




I've improved. I dont care what anyone else thinks, I myself believed that I've improved. and im going to keep improving until I can be the best I can be.

So to all my followers and the people who want to pursue a graphic designing hobby- PRACTICE. PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT, and above is an extremely good example! DONT GIVE UP, because If I did, I would still be at the bottom of the ladder.

Good luck xxx

Our Banner

So, I added the banner. I used an old picture, and added the text!

I'm really proud of it!

Misc. Graphics

 


This is using a shadow effect, which I have forgotten how to do over the years.

 
This was one of my earlier attempts at clothes.

StitchdTogether's Banner

It's a bit sloppy, but I haven't done stuff like this in a while. Hope you like it:]

Another Graphic: August 2012

 

This is one I made in August. It's simple, but effective. And I have some good news! I'm going to start making banners for other stuff to blog about.

NEW BeatBullying Graphic

So yeah, I have JUST made this.

ANOTHER Old Graphic.



I made this ages ago for a friend, she was having a school Junior Prom, as she was from the USA, and she wanted to look at dresses. I had this design in progress, and gave it to her via her blog, which has been deleted, and she used this to make something very similar for her mum's handmade dress.
