Questioning myself
Just curious...
Would you consider the stuff I make (Daily Fanart posts, any icons, headers, banners etc) to be fanart or am I just kidding myself?
Seems like there are others in the fandom who truly make fanart with text and tons of layers and effects. I see pieces on Tumblr and here on LJ that are much more elaborate (not to mention beautiful). I'm thinking my stuff fails to measure up by comparison.
Granted, most people use Photoshop or some other more sophisticated software to make their fanart. I simply use PhotoScape or various online editors. I CAN use Photoshop (learned it extensively in college), but I just choose not to anymore.
I'd really appreciate everyone's honest opinions about this. It's been bugging me. Thx. :)
