Grrr, bad Photoshop!

[thistlechaser]

The bad news: After spending two full hours trying to make icons from 115, I finally came up with two of them. Both were bondage!Fuji: "My fandom enjoys being tied up!" and "My fandom enjoys cross-dressing!". Both were completely done, I was typing in the file name to save the first one as (gah!) Photoshop crashed. Arg! Aie! Ack! Both icons were lost.

The good news: Even after all that work and learning to do new text (outlined! Wow!), I didn't really like them too much. I didn't figure I'd really use them, and was questioning if I'd post them at all. So while I lost two hours, I didn't really lose much product. Oh well. (Icon-making is a heck of a lot harder than it looks! At least when you want to add text and stuff.)

The unrelated news: Did anyone note just how many crotch-shots there were in 115? I watched the ep a number of times to try to get good shots of Fuji, and I noticed how often crotches were lingered on.

Also, I really liked the music they played in the background of the western half.

Very, very tired.

Are you de-Potterized now? I've noticed the distinct lack of Potter and the dramatic increase in anime.

No, I wouldn't say totally de-, but perhaps semi-unpotterized. I still like it and sometimes read fanfics of that theme, but I only have room in my head for one obsession at the time, and so anime has taken over that spot.

It doesn't help the potter-cause that the canon nearly sucks -- there's new material so infrequently, and when it does come out there are nearly more plot holes than plot. However, I love the fandom to death, and the fan writers can be so good. I have lots of friends within it, so I doubt I'll ever totally drop out.
