i remember a summer night, i was searching for pictures of my favorite celebrity, jessica simpson, i found a website, with some
gorgeous icons, that inspired me to try graphic designing, again. i had a couple myspace layout sites prior, in other words lyts, and oh so scene, but then i didn't really understand how layout sites and coding worked. so they went
sour and i created agency layouts, which turned into agency studios, there was my learning experience, i learned myspace layout sites
etiquette, and how coding
really worked.
my niece was jealous of my myspace layout site, and soon she was asking me to help her with one, she didn't really have a
feel for the layout making, or really anything. so
after she got tired of her site, i got tired of agency, which had gotten 1k in about three months. then, i made a new site and called it lovestoned, i got grounded and totally
forgot the login, so i took over my neice's myspace layout site, and renamed it,
dawson's creek, that summer i was
obsessed with that show, i got that account to about 1.3k in a month, and quickly got tired of it. i decided to start fresh, and i named my new site ehmmagod, a name i found on someone's 'site name' list (a list with ideas you could use as site names), and i got 1k in 2 days, that site was quickly becoming a
hit. until about three weeks later i got a message from a girl telling me that ehmmagod was her old site name, that she wasn't even using, i understood her position, but she was
kinda mean to me giving the fact i had no clue it was hers before. i didn't argue, told her i didn't know, and changed ehmmagod, to publicity, i got bored with that name
then changed it to snappkissed, got bored with that, then changed it to shop kitson, then i got bored of that and i changed my name to smitten, until my friend, told me some other girl had that name for her site. i'm sure i'm leaving off some
other site names i had, but i'm sure that won't ruin your day.
i've always had a
problem with people saying you need to have a photo editing program like photoshop, in order to be successful. the truth is for most of my layout sites, i used plain old
paint. if you really have talent you could create something out of paint that looks as good as photoshop only with more
passion. don't let anyone tell you, you can't do something, or you can only do it one way, don't follow the crowd, create your own path and
run with it. (:
