Hi, Esper, does it really matter if there are no "real" examples of your work.*snip*
Hi wbool !
thanks for your input.
For me it matters to have "real" examples of my work.
I was a creative person all my life.
Got my first computer in 2000, then internet and doing digital stuff began to dominate my life.
This has advantages and disadvantages.
The world has changed a lot because of the digital age.
For me computers have sucked energy out of me.
Im very much unable to do physical stuff, like i used to.
Its so much easier to push a mouse around than going through the tedious process of making something physical.
I used to make clothes - i want to do it again, but i cant.
I want to redesign furniture, but i cant.
I dont have the ambition and i dont have the energy anymore.
So i do a bit of gimping instead.
As is said, i have a huge folder with stuff that i made, but its just sitting there and i ask myself, why is it that i dont make some artwork for my wall ?
But gimp is a bit of a hobby for most of us Gimpchatters it seemed to me- thats why i was curious - is this only me, or do other people use Gimp to make something that can actually be printed ?
Of course its totally okay to do something that is used exclusively digital.
Like wallpapers or in my case coverartwork for my mp3 player.
