Psychedelic Set #2

Like Set #1, there are 26 complete alphas in this set. They are roughly in the same order at the preview so that you can download only the ones you like. There is a complete set of capitals in each zip file.

Rose Box

I made this for the Scrap Kit Challenge November Challenge. There are three boxes.

Astral Clarification

Sean, by Astral, I meant Star. That is what I get for writing up the post late at night. As for the ad hominem nature of hate, I did consider that the next day, but at the time, I had narrowed my choices down to I Think Sarah Palin is Bad for Science in America Alpha and I Hate Sarah Palin Alpha. I decided that the former was too long a title to get into the preview. Call it a Madison Avenue-style decision.

Also, having read up on the existing star projector (a Zeiss Model VI Planetarium Star Projector which can project some 8,900 fixed stars down to magnitude 6.5, along with 17 star clusters and nebulae), I still don't understand how this became an overhead projector in the presidential debate. I still get images in my head of John McCain standing in the center of the planetarium with a plastic transparency and shining a flashlight through it.

As for being Muslim, I'm waiting for the day that Buddhism is declared to be a dangerous religion. At which point, the billions of Chinese and Indians will rise up like red tide and end the oppressive Caucasian supremacy with real culture. The secret ninja cells are already seeded across the world as pacifistic monasteries. That's real bureacratic organization: large, unwieldly, implacable, and unstoppable.

And now I'm going to go back to making graphics for this blog. I only made this post because 4shared is down for maintenance this morning.

Political Statement

I usually like to keep my political views separate from my digital creations, but I listened to Sarah Palin decry the wastefulness of fruit fly research today. I yelled at the television when John McCain bashed bear genetics. I yelled at the television when John McCain attacked the Adler Planetarium for needing a new star projector. I don't believe that the Republican ticket believes in science or wants to support scientific research. However, attacking the work horse of the genetic community, Drosophila melangaster, is too much. After hearing Sarah Palin mock fruit fly research and call it a waste of money while simultaneously declaring that understanding autism needed more funding, I felt a need to state just how much I dislike Sarah Palin and the hypocrisy of declaring that research which has produced understanding of autism is pork and doesn't deserve to be funded. Do not attack the fruit fly. The fruit fly is our friend. If we didn't have the fruit fly, we'd be cutting up babies to figure out these scientific truths.

Four years ago, I feared that the economy would be ruined if Bush was re-elected. My fears have been realized. If Sarah Palin should become Vice President, I fear that scientific progress will come to a halt in the United States.

Not So Spooky

Since Halloween is Friday, I wanted to try my hand at a Halloween-themed kit. I don't think I have the hang of scrap kits yet. I like the ribbon and the ric rac, but the papers are ho hum. This kit comes with:

6 papers,
1 tile,
2 brads,
9 ribbons,
6 ric rac,
1 alpha

The kit zip contains everything except the alpha.

Psychedelic Set #1

I made a set of 26 chipboard alphas. The alphas are listed in mostly in the same order as the preview so you can download only the ones you like. There is a complete set of capitals in each zip file.

On the Road, part 3

Ok, here is the last part of On the Road. It is two separate files. One for the alpha and one for the Route 66 signs.

If you want the first alpha in this set as separate images, it is available here.

On the Road, part 2

I checked in tonight to post the next in this series and there are more comments in the Great Experiment. At this point, it seems like people prefer individual images. So, I will provide the next alpha as a zip file. I already chop up the letters and make a zip file for the people in my alpha collecting group, so providing it for people who scrap means less work than having to upload the png file, too! I guess opinions could always swing the other way, so stay tuned. Click on the image to get the alpha. Come back tomorrow to get the last alpha and the Route 66 signs.

On the Road, part 1

From the lack of response to the great experiment, I must conclude that most people like their alphas as a single sheet. There are three alphas that are a part of this kit. I will be posting each png file separately. You can get the first PNG here. Come back tomorrow to get the next file.

EDIT: This alpha is now available in as individual images in a zip file.

A Great Experiment

I have received a complaint about my alphabets. I have been told that scrappers do not like the letters as individual files, but would rather have them as a single image. So, I have decided to conduct an experiment to see if this is true or if this is an isolated incident. I am offering up my next alpha as a single PNG file. If you hate this idea, then please leave a comment. If too few people will respond, then I will assume that it is indeed true, scrappers want alphas as a single image and stop chopping up my alphabets.





So, let the experiment begin. Get the alpha here. You can use it with the Home Baked Traditions Kit.

Please leave your opinion about single image versus individual letters here in the blog and not at 4shared.
