I mostly made kind of all of these for myself, but thought other people might relate to them.
Before you read the meanings; please note i based these off MY OWN experiences. They will not encompass everyone, and are NOT MEANT to encompass everyone. I'm simply sharing them in the case that someone has a similar experience to mine, and would like to represent that.
The usage of "you," "your," etc, is not a sign that this is written for everybody reading it. It is just the way I like to write descriptions for these kind of things, because i'm reading it while im writing it.
1. Sexuality influenced by intrusive thoughts
wasnt able to think of a proper name for this one (And the next), so any ideas are welcome. this is an exclusive term for people that struggle with intrusive thoughts
White — "outer face" of someone's sexuality, what you present to others
Light reddish-pink — The conscious awareness of what you know influences your identity, but is still light and surface-level
Deep red — Conscious awareness of what you know your sexuality is influenced by. Hatred seeps in deeper, closer to the core
Black — The intrusive thoughts themselves. Buried under everything else, only you can see it in yourself. Everything else comes from here, the disease-like catalyst for your identity. The things that nobody will ever know, let alone understand.
second flag has the same meanings (in order of the original bands), and is simply a nod to the "original" ocd awareness flag i had come across (teal & tan mean the same thing here, and the colour difference is purely aesthetic).
3. Apathetic Bipolar
I actually couldn't find the original meanings of the flag (sourced from wikipedia), so i'll just…make my own lol
Orange — Extreme mania
Yellow — Mania
Gray — Apathy
Black — Extreme apathy
Light blue — Depression/depressiveness
Dark blue — Extreme depression/depressiveness
4. Hypersexual but i made my own meanings and changed some colours
Thats kind of it.
Black — Outer hatred for hypersexuality itself, whether that be from whoever suffers from it, or from how other people see it.
Hot pink — The shameful ecstasy felt when, or if, it becomes unbearable, and it's urges are satisfied
Light pink — Post-episode clarity.
Neon pink — The genuine love someone might have for their hypersexuality.
Neon purple — The state of being able to accept hypersexuality for what it is, and being able to handle it and embrace it in order to heal and cope.
Hello, and welcome to the long-awaited(at least on my part) digital stamp-making tutorial from neosprites! I’d like to preface that I learned what I was doing from this tutorial so it may be a bit redundant, but if anything I get a bit more specific. Thank you so much to @graphic--horde for your work, it changed me as a graphic maker. This is gunna be a long post so feel free to bookmark it for later. Now, onto the show!
The frame I will be using for this tutorial (which is the frame I use on 99.9% of my stamps) I found from the above linked post, which I believe is from a creator that OP lost track of. Its inner dimensions are 94x50 pixels and its outer dimensions are 99x56 pixels. Here it is!
Find your material! - I recommend using websites like Tumblr and searching with the “GIF” filter only on, or alternatives such as Giphy or Tenor. Your browser may let you directly save the .gif file; if not and you are noticing it restricts you to save it as a .webp file you can try an extension like “Save webp as PNG or JPEG” (for Firefox but I image other browsers have similar functions, but I really recommend you switch to Firefox). To use this you will right click on your source .gif like normal but instead of clicking on “Save image as…” click “Save webP as…” and then click “GIF”. You should be redirected to the website ezgif.com where we will actually be doing all of our editing! Here’s the .gif we’ll be working with.
Convert to GIF (optional) - if you used the extension from the above step you should already be ready to click the blue “Convert to GIF” button. If not, go ahead and open ezgif.com and click on “webP” and then “WebP to GIF”; then convert to a gif with the blue button.
Resize the GIF - now that we have a gif ready to edit, let’s make it the right size. The easiest method I have found is to change it directly to the frame’s inner dimensions, 94x50 pixels. [EDIT: Make sure in the aspect ratio drop drop menu you select "stretch to fit" and not "center and crop to fit" like I did in the photo example.] Click “resize” and then type [94] in for the width and [50] for the height. Next press the blue “resize image” button.
Add the frame - next click “overlay” then click the thin blue button that says “Extend canvas size(use if overlay exceeds GIF sizes)”. This will give us some extra room to add the frame onto the design. Next click “Browse…” and find the frame you have saved onto your device, then click the blue “Upload image” button.
After that it’s going to be misaligned, that’s normal! It will say you have the option to drag it into place, but don’t bother. That’s one of the reasons my old stamps look wack, it’s just harder to do. Instead type [44] in for the Left box and [22] in for the Right box. It took me a while to figure out these dimensions to be honest, and I’ve only tested it with this frame so I don't know if it works with others. Then click the blue “Generate image” button.
Crop the transparent edges - click on “crop”. You will have the option to check a box that says “trim transparent pixels around the image” however, I don’t recommend this as it tends to crop a few of the frame’s pixels with it sometimes. Next, set the Left position to [44] and the Right position to [22]. For the other dimensions we will use the outer dimensions of the frame which are 99x56 pixels, this will trim everything except the tiny spaces in between the stamp frame’s spikes. Type the width as [99] and the height as [56] and click the tiny blue button that says “set”. After that click the blue “Crop image” button.
Save and use! - all that's left is to click “save” and upload the graphic to your liking. (best seen on dark mode obviously)
If you’d like to tag me in stamps you’ve made using my tutorial I would love to see them, but it’s not required!! Make sure to always give credit for pictures/gifs when you can and try not to make stuff out of personal/fan art. Thank you to the person in my inbox who requested this tutorial, I had been meaning to for a while but it was just the kick I needed. :)
Drew him with horns and patterns this time
He came out so well imo !!
Also, I tried 007n7 like too many times, I think I'm cursed or something.
