I’m not so sure I understand the question?

You are perf, Sherlock.

A CORPSE IN MY SHOWER. That’s the sweetest thing anyone’s ever done for me. Take me now, Sherlock. Take me now.

Is this you, Emre? ‘Cause if it is, this is kind of awkward.

Thanks for letting me know! I’ll have to see what I can do. I still have them all on my Macbook, so I’ll have to reupload them somewhere a little later.

Oh, god, I used so many textures on that one that I don’t even remember. But uhm, I think it might have been one of northerndawn’s? Any type of paper-y texture should provide the same effect, though.

I’ve actually been working on a new texture pack that should be up soon enough. Not fairy tale inspired, though, however. But yeah, it seems like the fairy tale one was the most popular pack thus far, even though I wasn’t quite as happy with it as I was with some later ones. So, I will definitely try to make another fairy tale type pack. :)

Skinny. :)

Oh! It’s Kristen Bell. And thank you! I’ve actually been meaning to post the full version of the icon, but it’s not 500px wide, so I’ll have to make a couple of other similar edits first in order to make it into a photoset. I’ll do it asap. :)

15. I’m mourning the death of the amazing Sheriff Graham from the TV show Once Upon A Time. Hence the URL. My previous url grringirl, which I will change back to at some point, is a Buffy reference from when Willow said: “I mean, did we not put the ‘grr’ in girl?”.

37. Sometimes I dance to rock music while I brush my teeth. I often get an impulse to clean my bathroom at midnight. I procrastinate a lot and leave things to the last minute.

49. I don’t smoke. I tried once when I was 11 (yeah, two of my friends and I were being stupid and thought we were cool) but choked on the smoke and coughed for half an hour. After that I swore never to touch a cigarette again. And yes, I drink at parties. Sometimes wine with dinner. Though the latter does never happen when it’s just me.

Dear Anon. I would say that was pretty spot on, except for two things: I’m not English and my favourite season is spring. Other than that, bravo. You have successfully convinced me that you, in fact, really are Sherlock Holmes.

Favourite person: Peeta. Hands down. No question about it. He’s just perfect.
Least favourite person: It’s a tie between President Coin and President Snow. I loathe them both.
Prettiest person: Rue or Prim.
Most beautiful person: Finnick or Cinna.
Person I want to marry: Peeta, Finnick or Gale. But seeing as Finnick and Peeta were both very taken, I’d probably go with Gale.
Person I want to be best friends with: Hmm. I dunno, actually. Somehow I feel like I would probably get along very well with Katniss and Gale. I was pretty tomboyish (and still am in ways) growing up, and Gale and Katniss’ adventures in the woods would probably appeal to me. If you don’t count killing things. But yeah. I’d probably want to be BFFs with Peeta, though.
Favourite pairing: Finnick/Annie or Peeta/Katniss.
Unpopular opinion: I don’t know if I have any unpopular opinions. Maybe the fact that I wouldn’t have hated Katniss and Gale ending up together at the end, even though I ship Everlark more.

I hope you mean making black and white images into color ones? There are various methods to do it. A lot of people use adjustment layers: you select the skin, eyes, lips etc and then use Curves or Selective Color adjustment layers to get the colors (back in the day, like in 2006 and 2007, I used the Selective Color method). Now though, personally, I use different layers on Overlay and then paint the color onto the canvas with a soft brush. And then adjust the Levels etc. Seeing as I’m shit at tutorials, if you google “colorization tutorial” you should find something more detailed. :)

Oh! No, I didn’t find random images. Or, I did, I guess, but I made sure that they were royalty free stock photography. There are a bunch of websites where you can find free stock photography: a quick Google search should help you along the way. :) A rule I had for myself when I made my textures was to not use photography that was “meant as art”, and only go for the royalty free stock imagery (this because of copyright issues etc). Before I go looking for images I usually have something in mind as to what I want to make. Then I basically just play around with them in Photoshop: colouring, filters, layering… It’s actually pretty fun, and I’m sure if you just experiment you’ll make some really nice ones.

And thank you, I really appreciate the sentiment.

Ah, yes, I know. Unfortunately sheriff-graham was already taken (and most other Graham related URLs), hence the extra ‘s’. But thank you Anon, for your kind words. :) I’m really glad you like my blog.
