I just saw the chapter image you used for the layout for Mapping Stars and I love it! It just adds a little something to a layout that was very minimalistic; the perfect touch, really. Thank you again so much I hope your schooling and such is going well xo

@ skywalkers.
There was a few hiccups but nothing too serious.

@ SmilingScarlet
Still, it's a long way. I hope the move went well, though.

@ skywalkers.
Thanks love! It was but I'm back in FL and I feel very...indifferent? I can't entirely describe it.

@ SmilingScarlet
I have PhotoShop again! Request away! And I'm sorry about the move. That's really difficult.

@ skywalkers.
Oh no! Hope everyone's okay! Take your time, I am in no rush. I think I have till...maybe August to turn everything in? ALl good either way

I'm going home tomorrow. Oy vey.

@ SmilingScarlet
No, our apartment got flooded and we lost wi-fi and stuff is all messed up. But yeah, I will try to make a layout when I can.

@ skywalkers.
Oh that's fine. I feel you. Is it school stuff??

@ SmilingScarlet
I'm really sorry about that.

I can do a layout, though, when I find my laptop charger. This week has been a bit hectic.

@ skywalkers.
oh no. I currently don't either. It's quite the situation. My days are being counted down until I have to go back to FL. Meh, it's bittersweet.

How are you??

@ SmilingScarlet
Oh, no big deal. At all. I haven't had wi-fi, so it worked out great. I hope your days get better, though.

@ skywalkers.
I've been so bad with responding back. Sorry, love. How are you? I've been pretty meh lately, and I just want to pack up and leave already. Still have a few more days.

@ SmilingScarlet
Well, I usually just google '[x] backgrounds.' Like, grunge backgrounds, paper backgrounds, etc. Sometimes I add 'seamless,' to find repeating backgrounds. To be honest, if you add 'tumblr' to the search, you can usually get more...artsy results. I like really simple backgrounds.

I make the banners in Photoshop, and they're almost always transparent because that's just my thing. They're only not when I make the layout on the Chromebook that my mom and I share. If I'm using my laptop, then it's Photoshop. You may be able to do the same thing with Pixlr.

Another thing that I do that I don't really see anyone else do is add a .gif to the background of the subtitle.

Uhh, as for fonts, I don't like to use more than three. Two, if possible: one for title/subtitle/chapters and another for the summary/main text.

@ skywalkers.
Yes! Just all of it. I cannot and am so envious of your skill.

@ SmilingScarlet
Inspos? Like what? Backgrounds?

Also where do you go to get layout inspo's? I'm still trying to put one together for my femmeslash.

@ skywalkers.
Thank you so much. She's fucking thirty-three and acting like that. Fuck her.

@ SmilingScarlet
Eugh, that's awful. She should be more mature, it seems. I'm really sorry and I hope you can find a place to live and to be happy.

@ skywalkers.
I'm alright...it just sucks you know? I'm dealing with people well into their thirties -- my guy is 36 and his sister is about three years younger. Anyway, it'll be a long story but here's what happened. So we went to go see a movie with my guy and his family. He starts to tell one of his sisters that he needs x amount of money to make his bills this month. She starts giving him dirty looks and goes off and says "well you said that you were fine!"

and they start arguing and she fucking is being nasty as shit and saying things like "well you weren't saying that when you were stuffing your face with MY food." I had fucking enough and jumped in and said

"Don't worry Luis when I get my paycheck I'll help you out."

He automatically says don't get in this, and so does she but then she starts with bullshit like

"Don't think I forgot about you talking shit all the time!"

Which was me expressing my frustrations to her because she kept saying I could tell her things and she'd keep it between us, etc etc. So this bitch is a fucking piece of shit and called me a hoe. Which is too fucking funny because she's always fucking around with her husband.

So before we left the parking lot she yelled out "FIND A PLACE TO LIVE!"

She is a cruel bitch and I hate her. I hope she fucking dies. I really, really, REALLY do.

@ SmilingScarlet
OH NO. Are you all right?
