Blink. Blink. Blink.

I finally recovered from that really weird feeling I've been having the whole day yesterday, after playing with some nice little sheep on the PC, talking to my love, and watching The Bothers. Then I went home to eagerly wait for a 10 minute "Prisoner of Azkaban" feature on TV, which was really fun to watch, because I saw some stuff I've never seen before. The movie looks really really good, and I'm so excited, I'd give Bouncing Ferret Malfoy a run for all the Galleons in his Gringotts account at being bouncy. :)

Ickle Ronniekins (also known as MamaG) has been tormenting me for ages with the nice little blinky graphics she was able to download from a website that just wouldn't show me any graphics at all! I've been trying to access the site to no avail, all the while, wanting to hex the PC for being such a stubborn heap of metal. But I thought, well, if you can't get 'em, make 'em! Except... I'm a Photoshop-ignorant person, remember? So just as I always do, I ran to the experts.

So thanks to Lily Grace and her easy to follow tutorial, I now have my very own, self-made blinky graphics!




This was my first try at creating blinkies, so it doesn't really look like much. Naturally, it had to be Ron and his famous "follow the butterflies". The darned song just won't keep silent in my head. Darned puppet pals. LOL. And I dedicate this first attempt at making blinkies to my teammates from NBS Quezon Ave (yes, even Filonila, who was abducted by aliens from Filinvest). I love you all. You guys are the best and the funnest teammates one could have. :)




And this is the product of my 3rd attempt. After seeing Draco get socked by Hermione in the PoA feature, I figure I'd give him some blinky time. And hey, some Malfoys I know (yeah, I know like three of them) could use these on their blogs. Heheheh.

I'm off to make more! I've found a new addiction. Go me!


p.s. Oh, and if you "follow the blinky link. follow the butterflies.", it is actually a portkey to the Potter Puppet Pals website. Don't forget to slow down the movie frame by frame when you see Voldemort AK Snape in "Trouble at Hogwarts". If you find the green star shooting out of Voldemort's wand, click on it... and hear Ron sing. *follow the butterflies. follow the butterflies. follow the butterflies...* :))
