Obsessive Contest!

Sat Apr 16, 2005 6:43 am

I need something to be obsessed about so I can make a background about it..... Yeah..

Does anyone have any suggestions? I'll post a link to it when I finish the background when I get a suggestion that I like.

I would preferably like a cartoon or something like that because a character is easy to cut out. [If a cartoon, I would like one that has super charging powers(and can shoot stuff out of their hands)].

EDIT: Cartoons only please. If you would like to know why consult my other post a bit further down the page.

Bonobo monkeys! They are such nice things to be obsessed over. :D

Ooookkaaayy......I might choose that...Even though I don't know what they are. Can I have some links with some information?

Hmmmm. THEY'RE COOL!!!

But I can't cut out fur well in Photoshop :cry: I wish I could use those.. :cry: :cry: :cry:

If you're going to use photoshop, I suggest abstractism. It's incredibly cool and you can get obsessed over it.

Really, I made like 16 wallpapers of abstractism. :P

Yeah, I was thinking along the lines of having stuff I could cut out and place next to each other with one of them bigger and at 50% opacity..... Also I have been using abstract stuff for a while now and after I do my background I am thinkign of doing a set (for me) in a completely different context than the one I have at the moment.

Thanks anyway though :D

Oh hm....well this one time I used pictures of my friends and I and made a wallpaper. You can try sticking pictures of people and making a collage lol.

or Kitties! I love kitties! And animals <3

I tried making collages of different people, but the hair bit didn't really work well. I think maybe cartoons only will be good, because I don't cut well with photos when I think about it...

How about frogs -- they can be cool, & no fur/hair.

Sat Apr 16, 2005 7:43 am

Yeah, frogs are a good idea, but they are hard to cut out because they are usually on a green background. It's sort of hard to find a live green tree frog sitting in the middle of the desert.

Still, frogs are the easiest to cut out so far!

Or you can be obsessed over chocolates and candies of all forms - they are colourful, yummilicious and easy to cut out at the same time! :D

Azumanga Daioh! ^^

Hahaha. THAT'S easy to cut out. I think I'l take up an obsession with random anime characters (epecially Azumanga Daioh)

I think I'll make a background about that, wait a while unless I find a cartoon that's easier to cut out (not likely) and then continue making backgrounds!

Thanks watericesage!

Trying to think of things coming out of hands :P I did come across this:

On a plain white background, and something like that could be sharp with all abstract
