I was hunting through your food ones yesterday and was wondering if you would consider food icons with chemical symbols? ie: chocolate, coffee etc? I would snag those with great delight :-)
You have such great bases and I tried playing around only to have it confirmed that I have zero skillz at photo manip. Sooooo I would also like to put a request out there for food icons with titles like, "baking" "cooking" "cookies" "cake" etc....
i like your suggestions but i am not 100% on what you want. do you have any examples? i don't know the symbols for chocolate and coffee,etc. and with the other ones - how plain or fancy do you want them? bases with normal text? bases with colors and and plain text or fancy text or what? i always like to try what people want just want to make sure i get it right is all.
So I guess I was thinking bases with fancy text. I'm a big fan of your bright vibrant food bases.
And in regards to the first one I had to get my google fu on to find the chemical symbols. I really DO NOT HAVE A CLUE what I am doing playing around with Gimp but I did wonder if it was possible to layer something like say this (which is from your entry here) with for example the symbol found here which I found through google images....So the symbol was transparent? OR alternatively just an icon of the symbol itself fancied up a bit?
I'm sorry I'm not very good are articulating my ideas because in my head I was honestly thinking "chemical symbol" "food and food prep words" yeeehaw! To be honest you could play around and truly - WHATEVER you came up with I would love.
ok! i think i get what you are getting at now. please show me what bright food bases you like best and i will work with some of those as well as other things i can think of. i will try and do something with that symbol for chocolate.
i dont use gimp but if you "invert" the symbol layer (make the white background black and text white) then you can put that layer on screen or lighten and it will be transparent. then play with it some.
now that you showed me some that journal that you were inspired by - i do have some ideas in my head - that i have been wanting to try actually and now i have an excuse. :)
my friend here also makes very cute food icons with text. and bright ones too.
