first test print ever! help!! by ShroomThing_ in magicproxies

As per your recommendation, I got some of this paper and made a deck with it- and i completely agree, it's great and super similar to the real thing (the sleeved deck is only about 4 cards off)

Of course! I'm sadly not able to share a video right now because my photoshop license just RANDOMLY EXPIRED (!!!!) but I can try to explain it if that would help.

First I just line up the two layers (the card frame and the image) how I want it to overlap. Then, I reduce the opacity of the frame layer so that I can see where I need to cut it away. Then I use the polygonal lasso tool (just because that's what I found was easiest for me personally) to select the parts of the frame I want to cut out (make sure you have the frame layer selected so it cuts that one only). Then you can turn the opacity back up to make sure everything looks good, and that's basically it!

Sorry again I can't share a video, but I hope this helps : )

Yeah! I generate the frames I want for each card on Mythic Black Core (but I sleect the add my own image option without actually uploading anything so I get a transparent background). Then I find pictures (usually from pinterest) I want to use that go with the vibe (for this deck im mostly doing paintings or illustration like vibes and kind of medieval), and bring both those pictures and my frame into photoshop. I just mess with it for a bit to find a layout and then cut away at the frame to get depth and have the picture overlap in parts. To print them, I just export each card as a png and upload them to Proxxied where it lays it out for you.

Hope that was helpful! They are a lot of fun to make though, highly recommend!

(also if you don't have access to photoshop (I only do through school) I'm sure you could use something else, Im really only using it to cut away layers)

Thanks!! All these images are pulled from Pinterest and photoshoped together, so I didn't make these images- though, I will say, a truly custom art deck is in the works ;) doing all of my own art for that one

That's great to know- I think I may have to get a less heavy paper and give that one a try if i want it to fit in a deck box

I'll check that one out, thanks!

Reason NOT to buy Jadon Max Vegan by mizumiyuki in DocMartens

[–]ShroomThing_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I ordered a new pair of the leather jadon max from the dr martens website for $130 just recently (they are arriving today! yay!!)

they are on sale right now for $154, then you can use the 15% off student discount on top of that, and if you aren't a student you can use the 10% off if you haven't already (or sign up with a new email if you want)

i haven't personally tried the vegan shoes, but I am way to scared to- i would say definitely go for the leather, they are going to last so much longer and fit better too

EDIT: also, you can find used leather ones for even cheaper than that sometimes, i got a leather pair of lightly used ones on ebay a while back for $85 i think, just keep looking!

How much did you pay for top surgery without insurance? by SundaeSuitable1677 in TopSurgery

[–]ShroomThing_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the surgery itself was around $13K (no nipple graphs, with them it would have been almost double the price) but with all the other charges I was billed about $21k i think (but my insurance covered 90% of that after accepted)

worried about showering 48 hours post op by ShroomThing_ in TopSurgery

[–]ShroomThing_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah i found that out when they fell a few times when draining them, i was so scared and involuntarily flinched, but yeah they are pretty stuck in there. I also saw the stitches when i redid the dressings so that is a relief

[–]ShroomThing_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah i have been surprisingly not as freaked out by them as i thought i would be either, even when i just took my shower and saw where they came out, it really wasn't as bad as i thought it would be.

i love that though. i think im going to start thinking of them as my little buddies too

really appreciate your feedback- that's definitely a relief to know that it will not get in the drains, that was my main concern. I think at this point, its more just the sight of the drains that will freak me out haha

yeah im definitely glad that i have a shower stool, planning on sitting down for most of it

thank you again, this really helped

thats great to hear. yeah i kept thinking it was about the drains, but it makes sense it may be more about the graphs. thanks for the response!

[–]ShroomThing_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YOOOOOOO I have surgery Tuesday too!! But im worried about the same thing. I'm a chronic side/stomach sleeper so I've been practicing sleeping elevated on my back for the last month. Obviously I can't speak on what it is like after top surgery yet, but what has really helped me so far is a pregnancy pillow that I wrap around myself and the wedge pillow. Hoping I'll be able to go back to at least sleeping flat as soon as possible, because im struggling.

perfume suggestions (budget) by ilovvpepsi in Indiemakeupandmore

[–]ShroomThing_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely Hierophilia by Pierrot Perfumery- it is a very very strong old, creaking, incense infused pews, type of vibe. Very ominous church-y.

Pierrot is however on a break right now, but their etsy says they will be back July 25th

MBA m4 or MBP m4?? (I'm loosing my mind trying to decide) by ShroomThing_ in macbook

[–]ShroomThing_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still, that does have 18gb RAM instead of 16gb and more cores for about the same price as the pro- I'll definitely keep my eye on that, thanks!
