✦ chapter one → dividers 𝜗𝜚
OO. introduction : what are dividers ?
as their name says , dividers basically work to divide sections of a website , post , profile or similar . they can also introduce or farewell , basically framing a space where the rest of the information will go .
they can be simple , intricate , monochrome or combine lots of different resources to match the desired aesthetic . today , we are going to learn how to make a divider from scratch , step by step , using free resources provided by mae !
O1. resources
there are hundreds of sites where one can look into to find our base dividers ; lots of talented users make complex dividers and post them for everyone to use . it’s always important , if we decide to use those dividers made by someone else , to check the terms and conditions of use , and give credit where it’s due .
in this tutorial , we are making our dividers entirely from a blank canvas , so we are going to search for some simpler dividers and combine them into a whole new creation . some sites i recommend browsing for those are tumblr , pinterest , resource rentry’s , resource carrd’s , etc . . . in this case , and for the sake of this tutorial , i made a drive folder with lots of base dividers to use !
* if you made any of them and want to be credited / want me to remove them , please let me know ! there was no credit when i found them .
HOW TO : dividers - bmbiies ( click to see )
the colors , patterns , details and more do not really matter , since we will edit them entirely to match what we want ! the most important part about them is the shape and details .
O2. general ideas
when we make a divider , experimenting is essential . still , it’s always useful to have an idea in mind of what we like and what we’d like to implement to our complex divider .
in my case , for examples , i like adding curtain - like pngs that look like fabrics to add more details . for me , bows are also a must , in different shapes and lengths to give variety and that delicate touch . in this tutorial i will not be using pngs , though , as i’d like to approach the treatment of pngs and icons in another chapter of this series !
something i also really love in dividers is when they’re not exactly straight or just rectangles that frame our page . that’s why i love to use rounded dividers and borders to give my divider a better shape and more interesting details . we will comment that later .
O3. main shapes
for starters , i’m going to create a new canvas in ibis paint x with a blank background . since my dividers are often used for tumblr , i choose a size that works best with this application - the width i always use is 1280 pixels , and the height depends on how “thick” i want my divider to be . my go - to heightss are in the interval between 250 pixels and 500 pixels . today , we are going to choose 1280 px * 400 px .
then , we start with the fun part : adding our images ! when we click the little camera in the prior screenshot , our photo gallery will open . we will have needed to download our dividers beforehand , so that we can add the pictures and put them in place .
when we add an image , a little menu will come up in the bottom right corner of our screen . if you scroll down , there are several options to edit the size and positions of our images ! i like using the “zoom” tool since it keeps the image centered , and “translation x” or “translation y” to move my images around . the other options are also helpful but we might not need them as of now .
my dividers have three essential base parts : a top ( usually frilly ) divider , then the rounded divider below for the framing effect , and usually “mini” dividers that give a little more images . below are the three step by step and how i layered them .
in this chapter i am not going to focus nor explain how to add effects , colors , patterns or others to our dividers ; if you’d like it to be the next chapter of this series , just comment it or send me an ask ! i will make a tutorial on ibis paint x effects , tricks and such .
O4. detailing
so far it’s cute , right ? the aesthetic we like should already be somewhat visible and understandable , before we add more things . for me , i think it’s still a little plain so i’m going to add more details on the sides to round it up a little more ! something that also helps tremendously is adding shadows to each divider . as mentioned , i will show that in future chapters .
the change is big , and we barely did more than adding one image and adding some shadows ! it’s easy like that . for me , the center and the whole pink frills look now a little empty so i’m going to add simple little bows that might add more detail . then , maybe something to fill up the center as our main detail that will complete the theme . with that , we should be done !
O5. final result
and this is the final result of the divider i did , with a few adjustments . it’s now finished and ready to be used anywhere , in the simple colors we like !
O6. observations
wow , this was a fun yet difficult to make tutorial , and the first one of hopefully many more to come . feel free to leave questions in my inbox or comments and i’ll try to reply , but keep in mind i’m a university student ( engineering , in specific ) so i don’t have as much time .
please let me know what should be my next chapter ! it can be about icons , psds , gifs , any specific programs or applications , or just anything you want . reblogs and likes are extremely appreciated ♡

hi yess!!! i've just put off on making them until i get a request lol
edit because me a day ago was tired and couldnt read for some reason...
my layout rquests are still open, i've just put off on making non-requested layouts until i eventually get a request..
[Pt: who am i? I 'm evilweezer i go by she/her I've been editing since around 2024/2025 but i am semi new to editblr birthday September first i can do graphics and discord and tumblr layouts i wont do nsfw gore or problematic media anything that isnt in my blacklist is okay to request]
hello , i know you're not familiar with this media but your creations are absolutely stunning and i would like to request some torajo (from mundo torajo) reentry graphics ?
/ nf , if you don't feel like doing this , it's completely alright ! have a good day C :
HI THANK YOU FOR BEING SO NICE but unfortunately i couldnt find that much content for a rentry graphic so i might have to decline this request :(
RANT LAYOUT REQUESTS ARE OPEN!! I make these too often for fun so I thought, why not open my requests for them?
there are 2 versions, normal minimalistic and heavily decorated/edited!! when requesting, please make sure to add what character and what theme/colors you want!!
Instructions on how to use: (im on mobile) click and hold the divider you want to download and a menh should pop up to save image, then it’ll be in your photos gallery. For non mobile devices google “how to download image for (insert device)” and done!
these are f2u no credits needed at all. Especially since it says scrapped on the title..
hi gang!! my mental health hasnt been the best recently so i think i might take a break and not take anymore requests (i may also clear out my inbox, sorry everyone whose been waiting for their requests to be done sob)
ive been trying so hard to get motivation to do these but ive been dealing with stuff irl and ive started to get self destructive thoughts and that has been making it very hard to be creative :^ i dont know how long ill be on break for, maybe a few weeks or until i feel better
again, im so sorry!!!! i promise ive tried to do the requests but its so exhausting to do them
