APART FROM THE review I’ve not done any productive writing of my own. I recently downloaded Gimp 2.8 a free software for editing pictures, creating logos etc. Having used Photoshop before it wasn’t intuitive, plus I’d forgotten everything I’d learnt, it was that long ago. I’m still wrapping my head around layers and paths.
Instead of battling with the alphabet (it will live for another day!), I got stuck into designing my new logo/icon/button/header for the blog, which you can see at the top now in place of the old one. Partially spurred on by C-Gate I wanted to create an original image while giving copyright the finger – as in – the thumbs up. What were you thinking?!
Let me know what you think of the header. And have a good weekend. Cheers!
I'm from Scotland, where everyone owns a castle and pisses whisky. Some of the preceding sentence may contain factual errors.
I've been writing and reading for a long old time. I'm now trying to get into the published material side of things. I'm building up a bank of short story material and finding my legs in the long story side of things..
Hold on..I need shortbread..that's better..now where was I?
Like all good writers I have written a vast amount of stuff and like children's school meals large portions of it remain unfinished.
I write about all sorts, largely drawing my inspiration from real life events, futuristic musings and the dark recess of my mind. I say recess, it's the only recess, it's got to hold everything.
Enjoy the blog once it's up and running with material and please feel free to link me and share your work.
