I went website and logo design hunting today because I've been itching for a more professional feel to the blog for a while. By the end of the day after submitting quite a few queries for quotes I got inspired. As much as I am sure we all loved the fun, 70s hairstyle, girl reading with hero holding her it was time for a change.
So using a new trick I learned not too long ago in Photoshop, I created Kiki, the digital version of myself. In the process I think I might just have saved myself a whole lot of money too - it's better than Geico! lol Obviously you can see the new look by glancing up to the top of the page, but for the sake of prosperity here it is again:
Not only did I make a new banner, but I created a small icon for comment use and updated my twitter account. See how it looks:
I don't know about you, but I'm pretty darn excited!
For those who wanted to know the trick it's shape creation. My little Kiki is saved on my Photoshop as a shape; I can make her large, tiny, wide, tall, and when I let go of the mouse she's instantly created with nary a pixel in sight. To do this yourself simply make a shape then in Photoshop with the shape still selected go to Edit and Define Custom Shape. Give your shape a name and save it and it'll be there for use as long as you don't delete it from your Photoshop files or change computers. Yay!

Keira's favorite type of heroes are blind, scarred, and tortured... yes, she understands those should be separate, but all 3 at once is also nice! She enjoys historical romances best and adores audio books because great narrators turn books into auditory/mental movies (and she loves her romantic dramas like Pride and Prejudice/North and South!)
