Remember the Lilies.
Jul. 31st, 2004 12:23 amI don't pay as much attention in Design and Layout class as I ought. On the other hand, the gent we have taking the class rambles so much that you only need to listen in every five or ten minutes and you can get the gist. And in my case, even participate in class discussion. Because we are in a computer room, this allows me to play around on the internet, or similar. In the case of this morning, it was a Photoshop trip.
I was inspired this morning by this post in Buhfly's journal about Homosexuality and Buddhism.
"...God is not only black, God is also white, God is also a flower. So when a lesbian thinks of her relationship with God, if she practices deeply, she can find out that God is also a lesbian. Otherwise how could you be there? God is a lesbian, that is what I think, and God is gay also. God is no less. God is a lesbian, but also a gay, a black, a white, a chrysanthemum. It is because you don’t understand that, that you discriminate."
-Thich Nhat Hanh
So I made teh icons. *points above* That one's mine. No touchee.
This one:

is for Buhfly, and Buhfly alone, should she care to use it. If she doesn't care, applications will be made to me. Yeah.
These icons below are for public consumption, and you make take and use. Please credit in the keywords if you do. That's all I ask.

Not a huge array of typographical design, I'll admit (which is ironic, since that was the subject of our lecture this morning). This is partly because it was 9 am, and mostly because the computers have about 12 fonts, of which almost all were utterly unsuitable. Also, because Greg left in a hurry, I couldn't send the Photoshop files home, so I can't edit them until next week, when I'm back in the lab.
Man, these icons look even awesomer than they did on the school computers. [/smug]
