I'm not a very happy camper. Snoopy keeps giving me grief. I take that back, it's not so much Snoopy as my internet. For some reason it wants to be uncooperative. And of course, this happens on a day where I'm in a hurry and have very little time. *siiiigh*
Not only that, but a girl who hasn't been on the ATACT forums for a while returned and was very chatty. Now, sometimes we tend to branch off in comments in regards to various things, but we generally reign ourselves in, particularly after we had a bit of a warning from the mods. This went on for pages! I don't like having to go on and slog through a bunch of unneccesary chat about pointless stuff. *grumble*
On a brighter note, I was able to play around on my PS program and came up with a few things! First, an icon:

I used a sample pic that came with my computer. I was happy I was able to get the 'static' effect on it. It was pretty simple, too. I don't rememeber exactly how I got the slight glowy effect on the text, though. I'll have to look through my book again.
I made sort of a wallpaper too. Again, another sample picture. The text wasn't exactly what I was going for, but I still like the way it turned out.
I also did a text effect. Now, before you ask, no I didn't get inspired by the song I posted yesterday. The image I used was one I found of horses running in the wild. You probably can't tell by looking, though.
I hope to be able to do some more stuff. Maybe find some borders and use them for future icons. But, I think I'm gonna like playing around with it!
Well, I need to finish up and get ready to go run my grandma on some errands and they stop by the bank. *eyes mailbox*

*giggles* Go on, Akito! Give Shigure what for!
