Icons/Graphics made with a touch of insanity.

I've got more troubles than a diamond's got shine.

Making icons is fun.
  Making icons is good.
Not everybody makes them,
but everybody should.

*Try reading the above like it was a verse in George Michael's "I want your sex" song as that's what was going through my head when I wrote it. Yes, I'm a strange individual, but it really does make it all the more funnier.

  This journal was made with the intention of being an outlet for my creativity and to better my knowledge in Photoshop's cracktastic capabilities and features. There will be no sharing of major life stories or anything remotely resembling profound thought. However, mindless things are always in abundance, and I may feel inclined to share those everynow and then in addition to graphic posts.

This is a hobby. This is not my job.
Posts in this journal will be few and far between.


P.S. - I can be terribly indecisive at times, so you may wander in my journal and notice small changes everynow and then in the layout (Hopefully for the better). Apologies if it's a nuisance.

Journal/Profile Graphics & Layout:
All made by me, Babe. The Journal Layout is based off of the S2 'Flexible Squares' Layout, which I then re-tooled to my liking.
Yeah, so I, Um, Changed it again...I know, I've got problems...

» Icons/Graphic Info

› Comments aren't mandatory, so don't feel as though you are obligated to leave one. However, they can be helpful and yes, they are nice to receive. I always appreciate any feedback on my work (What is well liked - if liked at all, Which are being taken, etc.)

› Please know that you already have my thanks from the moment you leave a comment.
If I do not reply to you, It's not because I don't love you or haven't read your comment. It's because simply just saying "Thank you" can sometimes come across as insincere and repetitive. If I don't have anything else to add to that, ANYTHING AT ALL, then I most likely won't. Please don't be offended, as that is not my intention.

› I try to anwser questions ASAP but please keep in mind that patience is a virtue. However, If I take an inordinate amount of time to get back to you, feel free to shout out at me again.

› Credit is nice. It helps people find more icons that I've made, if interested.


› Please don't claim these as your own work. It's just terribly uncool.


I doubt this needs to be said, but...No, I do not take credit for the actual images themselves, as I did not personally film nor own these shows, movies, videos, etc., and nor would I ever be delusional enough to claim to.
All I do is MANIPULATE.



» Friend Info
This Graphic Journal is PUBLIC.

Feel free to friend the journal if you would like to keep a close eye on my graphic posts. You do not need my permission nor do you have to inform me.

Or I suppose you can TRACK my journal, but if you do that, it would be nice if you could possibly comment on my work so that I know people are still interested and not just de-friending me. :p

IMPORTANT! If you find me likeable enough and wish to extend me an invitation to visit your journal, PLEASE MENTION that you are friending me in a comment/message - anywhere, and I WILL friend you back. :) Just know that I'm not the most talkative person out there (I state that I'm shy in my BIO and I wasn't kidding.)

»Who is this lunatic anyway? I'm a female Canuck in her 20's that responds to the name Suz - though Suzi is entirely acceptable. Not really the most exciting person out there, infact, I'd call myself mind-numbingly boring. Saying that I'm a "bit" of a goof actually translates into a "giant" goof that can be so ridiculously shy that it would be funny if it wasn't so sad. Photoshop is my crack of choice though I occassionaly like to bust out a drawing or two in my trusty sketchbook (Wanna see some? My DA account). Music sustains me and keeps me happy, therefore it is a must. Never really thought of myself as a television junkie, but apparently I am one (but I honestly feel that saying I'm an admirer of the art of film in general is more accurate).

Now to entertain you with RANDOM Things that make me, ME...
I LOVE the colour blue. Blue will always win over any other colour. I HATE washing dishes with a passion. Moreso if it's not just my own dishes because I have a process that not everybody seems to respect. You see, I like my dishes to be thoroughly rinsed off before actually washing them. I do not, and I repeat DO NOT like having floaty bits of leftover food coming into contact with my skin while washing in what has now become dirty disgusting dishwater. You might as well be asking me if I'd willingly insert my bare hands into a septic tank. As mentioned above, music sustains me, and one way to keep a smile plastered on my face is finding new good tunes to add to my collection. Seriously, An awesome new song - and "NEW" doesn't necessarily mean it came out recently either - can make my day. I don't like mashed potatoes and I find it odd that many people find ME odd because of this. A sandwich isn't worth eating if it doesn't have any pickles in it. The only time I tolerate snow nowadays is on Christmas Day (It's gotta be a white christmas or it's just not the same).

^_^

  So, with that said, I bid you, who has wandered in here to read up my undoubtedly intriguing profile, a bright and cheery day and to remember to fear and respect escalators everywhere. :)

She's gonna dream out loud."

Ianto: Of course, Bananas are far more interesting.

The Doctor: That's the same staff who execute hundreds of contestants every day?
Female Programmer: That's not our fault. We're just doing our jobs.
The Doctor: And with that sentence, you just lost the right to even talk to me.

» A LIFE LESS ORDINARY
Jackson: What the hell did you do to her?
Robert: I punched her in the face.
Jackson: Oh, you punched her in the face. She's half your size and you punch her in the face?
Robert: She had a gun!
Jackson: Oh, she had a gun! So that makes everything all right, does it?

Capt. Picard: [laughs scornfully] You are not God!
Q: Blasphemy! You're lucky I don't cast you out, or smite you, or something. The bottom line is, your life ended about five minutes ago under the inept ministrations of Dr. Beverly Crusher.
Capt. Picard: [Takes a short pause in thought] No, I am not dead. Because I refuse to believe that the afterlife is run by you. The universe is not so badly designed.

Brodie: Now don't get me wrong. I don't wish the kid harm, but his mother should suffer that horrific ordeal so she'll learn how to manage her child!
T.S.: That's kind of a harsh lesson, don't you think?
Brodie: Man, there's not a year goes by, not one year, that I don't hear about some escalator accident involving some bastard kid that could have easily been avoided if some parent - I don't care which one - but some parent conditioned him to fear and respect that ESCALATOR!

» STAND BY ME:
Writer/Narrator: We talked into the night. The kind of talk that seemed important until you discover girls.

Teddy: Goofy's a dog, he's definately a dog.
Gordie: I knew the sixty-four thousand dollar question was fixed. There's no way anybody can know that much about Opera.
Chris: He can't be a dog. Wears a hat and drives a car.
Gordie: Wagon Train's a really cool show. But did you ever notice that they never get anywhere? They just keep wagon training.
Vern: God, that's weird. What the hell is Goofy!?

Ken: The view.
Ray: The view of what? The view of down here? I can see that down here.
