Q. What fandoms/ships are you into?
You can find your answer here. I ship a lot but I’m not too vocal about most of them, only the ones that really get me hooked.
Q. How many followers do you have?
Much more than I deserve, to be honest. But I like to keep it private because if I throw the number around, it makes it look “cheap”. Not to mention that tumblr is not a popularity contest. I’ll make it public only when I feel like doing it.
Q. What program do you use to make your graphics?
Adobe Photoshop CS5.
Q. Where do you find inspiration to make your graphics?
Well, mostly by looking at other people’s graphics. And by that I don’t only mean tumblr, but the internet in general. I go to graphic design blogs, look for tutorials, etc. (I make it imperative to not make my graphics look exactly like someone else’s. As much as I like a style, I refuse to reproduce it exactly the way I saw it, with little details included, because I feel like I’m taking a part of that person’s creativity and making it mine, which is wrong. Inspiration =/= copy.) But inspiration can come from everything, really. I can often find it in music and photography too.
Q. Why are there ugly ads on you page?
It’s the Google Adsense system. You can find more about it here. Don’t ever feel obligated to click the ads. Do it only of you want to. Ofc my broke self will appreciate it a lot. Also, some people may think that by clicking more than once or twice they’re helping me in some way, but they’re not. Thank you for the good intention tho.
Q. I sent you a message but you didn’t reply. Are you ignoring me?
a) maybe tumblr messed up and I didn’t get it; b)you asked anonymously - you really don’t have to! I don’t have sharp teeth - you’re totally risk-free, so please show me your pretty face so I can answer you privately. It avoids spamming my own and other people’s dashboards, plus it means you won’t miss it and I’ll answer you way faster. c) I simply didn’t get around to it yet. It may happen when rl and other stuff gets in the way, so be patient.
Q. Where are you from?
I’m from Portugal.

Q. Can you post a psd of ‘insert graphic link’ coloring?
I’m not gonna tell you a flat out ‘no’ - maybe I’ll share some of them eventually, or maybe not. Must of all because I’m a mess with these files, they usually get too big and way too messy to share, others the complete opposite, or I simply don’t save them. Also, I apply lots of personal ‘touches’ to the image file itself that are impossible to share in a .psd file. And, I’m not gonna lie, some times I like the result so much I wanna keep it to myself. Hey, we all have the right to be a little selfish. :P
Q. What fonts do you use on your graphics?
I’m always trying to find new and beautiful font types, so there may be many fonts that I use that you can’t find here, but I’m sure you eventually will. My favorites right now are: Bell MT; AdineKirnberg; Junction; Akenaten.
Q. Where do you get your stock images?
In this amazing site.
