Celebrating 200 posts for World Problems and Randomness

For those of you who don't know, "World Problems and Randomness" is my other blog, or rather, my main blog. Since it has reached, or will reach 200 posts, I'm gonna post some legal designs here as celebration. These aren't covers, just designs.

I would like to thank, The One and Only for making the awesome legal logo :) Now I don't have to worry about someone stealing my stuff :)



Let me just say, I really like how the ripples in the back turned out. And how matching the font is and the cool thing going on with the flower petals. I know it's not something you do, you know, praise your own covers but, hey, why not?
We're celebrating 200 posts so, yeah.





So this title suddenly popped into my head; "Gamma Rays & Helium" and I knew exactly what I wanted on the blue-tile-diamond background. I also almost immediately after making the cover, came up with the subtitle, "the Ultimate Collection of Fictional Memories". Idk why but it HAD TO BE "Gamma Rays & Helium". Talk about randomness, eh? :P




Then I thought I'd play around with the blue-tile-diamond background. Some how this turned out to be some kind of Roman Empire / Gladiator thing. The stars on the "I"s, I did them myself :) After I made this one, I immediately felt that this should be a two-part.

So here's the sequel.

I looked up the synonym for "pint" and came up with "quart". The star sequence thing on the bottom might have taken me up to forty-min to create and get just right. I tried to make it look a little sparkly on the trophy-like pitcher thing. I wanted to do something fancy with the letters but...well, there are no "I"s as you can see. I had to settle with adding something to the bottom which looked a little lonely without anything.




And then I did this one just a few minutes ago. Well, by the time you read this centuries might have passed by but anyway. The Idea Behind the Cover (this one has an Idea), is a little girl named Alexia who joins her local ballet community but she struggles because she feels like "Alex", a little boy, inside. She wants to be a little boy and does a lot of "boy" roles for plays because she is already quite boyish. But then, gender restrictions start to hit her as teachers don't really know what to do with her because she doesn't want to be a girl anymore but she LOOKS like a girl... Well, basically a story of a eleven-year-old transgender child that battles with the restrictions of her small community. Will she, or he, be accepted for who they are at the end?

The scenery is actually,

this one, turned to the side. Can you see it? :P


So that's all of them!

Happy Writing Figs, and have a nice day everyone else! :D
