OK, I made this last night, and no one is to laugh! I was a bit bored during the period Twitter was closed for maintenance, and browsing through my image folders I found the advert* above which reminded me of something I’d seen Mexborough (I think). We were driving through and I’m sure I spotted a shop with one of those old-fashioned metal advertising hoardings, this stuck in my mind because you don’t see them anymore, they tend to be perspex and chrome nowadays. Anyhoo, inspired by that I took the aforementioned image and turned it into the one below – you might need to click it to see the full-sized version. I admit, it could be better (in the cold light of day) but I’m still quite pleased with it, and with myself. It’s the first time I’ve grungified anything for years – prettifying seems to be more my thing now.
This also made me think about the time I spend on places like Twitter. Of course, it’s not wasted, communicating with other people is never a waste, but it does distract me from other things I enjoy doing, and which I might be quite good at if I devoted more time to. I really should do something about that …
* I don’t know where the image came from, but if it’s yours let me know and I’ll credit you or remove it.
I appreciate you dropping by,
Please leave a comment, don’t be shy
