I DON'T Want to Steal Your Artwork!

So help me out and put your TOU, (terms of use), on everything you put on the worldwide web. I do not buy or download ANYTHING that doesn't have information regarding resale. If I have to go through more than the actual download/add to cart page I am already over it. What I worry about most in this situation is the other people using this "Honor" system on the internet. Who can police millions of buyers? Just because I don't do it, doesn't mean someone else will care. Sometimes you feel like you have to hire a detective to find some people's TOU's! lol  Please, if you are serious about your designs don't put them out there without watermarks or very visible TOU's.

The digital pirates are lurking everywhere....(paranoia much?)

We're having another growth spurt!

Can I ever sit still? The answer is no! So I've started another site for my Graphic Design Company. I hope to develop it into a larger outlet for support to the handmade community and my fellow designers.

When/if I decide to open up this site to advertising, I will make an official announcement here and on the Etsy forums.

Thanks for reading my blogs, supporting my websites, and all of your friendship!

Animation Domination!

So what to do when my own biz gets slow? Why I just learn something new! I have always loved playing around w/animation so no time like the present, right?

In response to the forum font thread controversy of 2010....

I have just made a PIF banner for all my fellow Etsians to enjoy.

Feel the love people, forget the font!

Happy VDAY!

Going pattern crazy? Don't mind if I do!

Mad For The Plaid, Polka Dotty, Silly Stripes! Yep, here at GBT I am going pattern crazy! I have been spending a lot of my down time today, (now that both my kids are home and drive each other crazy!! lol), creating patterns in Photoshop.

Here is the Alice In Wonderland inspired banner I just created.

As soon as I can I am going to either resurrect my Deviant Art Site, or add some of these and more to my FREE section on this blog. Here are some examples of what I've been working on...

Patterns can be so much fun and don't have to be as basic as some of the ones I have here. There are so many endless color/shape combos and it's super entertaining to mix them up!

Okay, I definitely need to go outside and get some sunshine now. These patterns are starting to make my eyes go funny!
