Judy on a Tuesday: Fashions for May and June

5/22/2012

 
Picture
First of all, I can't believe I never posted these, as I have had them scanned since ages ago! I must have forgotten (sheesh). But I guess they are timely since it's now May and we're heading into June. I have two more costumes for Judy from Volume 26 that I will try to post this week and then I'll have to get to work on the next volume!

Also, Weebly has done horrible things with the formatting on here (why do they randomly change a blog style ~ I hate that!). So again, I am thinking of moving elsewhere where I can control my own creative space a little more. I like the convenience of some of the things here at Weebly (and it's a very nice platform for non-designers/non-coders, but I am used to being able to set my own agendas and I don't like when some outside force comes in and "improves" on things you are perfectly happy with in the first place.

And the site just timed out on me AGAIN. Grrrrr.

In better news, I found my Frank Merriwell files (I had dumped from out of Dropbox onto the desktop of my other computer, so yay! They are saved! I am visiting my sister for the holiday weekend, so I won't be able to post the final plates until next week sometime, probably, but at least I don't have to rebuild everything!

I love your shading. The shine on that jacket is just stunning. And by the way, I've been considering putting up a paper doll blog, but I don't know where to start.

As always, I love the shading. Painter's pallette hat is just fantastic. Over the top and a little playful.

On the moving your site front, I use Wordpress and I love it, but I have my own domain, rather than through their service. I also know a bit of CSS and XML, so I wasn't completely without some knowledge when I started. Also, I know a few programers who've helped me out when I needed it. I like the control of organizing my own site rather than having to deal with others, but shop around- there's a lot of nice platforms out there.

And Rose, if you want advice on starting a blog, feel free to drop me an email as well- paperthinpersonas (at) gmail (dot) com. There's a few things I wish I'd known before I started mine.

Thanks! I'll have to take you up on that when my schedule's a little less hectic.

thank you! if i ever get to the next volume there are yet sillier hats on their way!

i'm definitely thinking of moving to my own domain. i just haven't wrapped my mind around the transition: what i want to move, etc. i want to have a more certain plan about what i intend for this blog to be before i do anything drastic. it'll be a summer project for me.
