Playful blog header


Whoo~ I've finally finished making my blog header!
Ever since I've started this little blog a month ago,
I've been thinking about what kind of header I should make.
When I saw Pugly Pixel's tutorial I knew this is what I wanted to do.
Then I spent the whole day figuring out how to make it.
It was difficult at first because I've never taken a photoshop class in my life,
plus I wasn't using the same software shown in the tutorial.
Through trial and error, countless mock ups,
I finally managed to pull the whole thing together~
And I absolutely adore the result!

This is what I love about the blog world,
to me it is not just "blogging"
It is a place full of talented, creative people,
that inspire me to get out of my "comfort zone"
For the past four years I keep saying to myself
"I will take a photoshop class one day"
Now I say to myself
"I will learn how to do this today!"

Here are the resources I used to make the banner,
hope you will find it helpful when making your own~
Tutorial: Pugly Pixel
Words and pictures: Picnik
Textures: choco choco
Software: Sumo paint

Whoo~ 我終於完成製作我的網誌標題圖案!
自從一個月前這個網誌開站之後,
我一直在思考要製作什麼樣的標題圖案.
當我看到 Pugly Pixel的教學時,
我知道這就是我想要做的東西!
然後接下來我花了一整天摸索如何製作.
剛開始還蠻困難的因為我從來沒有上過photoshop課,
加上我使用的軟體與教學示範用的軟體不同.
經過不斷的嘗試,做了數種模擬版本,
終於把它完成了~
我對於成品超級滿意!

這就是我喜歡網誌界的地方,
對我而言它不只是單純的"寫網誌"
網誌界裡面充滿了才華洋溢,充滿創意的人,
啟發我踏出我的"安全地區"
過去四年我常常告訴自己
"總有一天我會學會photoshop"
現在的我告訴自己
"今天我要學會如何做這樣東西!"

以下是我製作網誌標題圖案的資源,
希望對於你的網誌標題有幫助~
教學: Pugly Pixel
文字和圖案: Picnik
圖紋: choco choco
軟體: Sumo paint
