Little O' This, What About Blog?

The End of the Road

Creativity is a good thing.  It can prompt one to sew pillows and paint cupcakes on canvass.  Creativity also has its limits.  Just because one can sew pillows and paint cupcakes does NOT mean one should try to make her own banner for her blog.

Wow, that thing’s ugly.

Owell, I made it myself, I remembered how to ftp it to my site and I am proud.  Don’t fear, I’ll take it down in a day or two when I get tired of the wretchedness of it.  Then I’ll go back to my very cool banner designed by Secret Agent Josephine.

She is everything I’ll never be.

  • Look at you go! You are a creative MACHINE!

  • At least you made an attempt. I wouldn’t venture into Photoshop or any other graphic program if you paid me in gold. I am only skilled in Paint…and then it’s only stick figures.

    I’m actually digging this banner. It’s got a kind of Circus-ey undertone combined with a hint of metal-head t-shirt. My artistic opinion….ha!

  • That’s a far better result than what I could come up with…

  • haha.
    Justin just turned around and said “Whoa, her main banner is kinda goth, eh?”
    Fun experimentations!! I think it’s pretty good considering that it will take me… A LOT to get to that stage…

  • I just made my own – it IS hard!

  • Not bad at all! I’m impressed, I wouldn’t even know where to start!

  • SAJ’s talents are crazy awesome. But this banner ain’t half bad. I’m just saying…

  • You silly girl. I’ve been meaning to tell you that you might have a bent in this direction. Yes, I have been spying on you. This is a good start!

    Unlike some other people who took my banner down, this makes me very happy. You need Adobe Illustrator. Trying to draw in photoshop is really hard.

  • is it wrong that I LOVE IT! I think it’s great because you tried to do it yourself. good job. i am proud of you. don’t give up.

  • I couldn’t see it, I swear I couldn’t. But I would not be stopped! I thought, maybe it’s just my browser (I use firefox)…so I opened it up in internet explorer and voila! your creativity revealed! It’s great! Simple, quirky, a little haunting, and has that little bit of “amanda” with the hilarious tag line. Love it.

  • My eyes are burning! Hey, at least you tried and it can only go up from here right? You were brave enough to tackle it and not just whine.

  • Way better than I could do!!

  • I too LOVE SAJ… She’s the bomb. With that being said, I think you did a fine job on your first attempt :) And it was all done in the name of experimentation anyway right?
    Keep up that creative energy!

  • Well…I like it! The tagline cracks me up.
