SIMULACRUM: AUTHOR

 

 

BH: Hello, what's your name?

S: Hi guizeeeee, I'm simulacrum! o u o Nice to meet you /waves like a cray-cray person. 

 

 

BH: Nice to meet you! So, what do you do here on FFO?

S: I mainly write on the site, but I also do graphics as a hobby, so if you want a fabulos postah fo yo storeh come to mah shop (shameless advertising ftw lol) /winks creepily. PLUS I GOT FREE CANDEH. /throws candy everywhere and opens mah white van. 

 

 

BH: Lol, it's okay to advertise here! xD And about your graphic shop, care to tell us what inspired you to start one?

S: When I started using FFO, I didn't even know about graphic editing like I do now. At first I started graphic editing because I just wanted to make posters for my own story but after awhile, when I thought my editing skills were actually good enough for people to like, I wanted to make my own shop, 'cuz there weren't many graphics shops in FFO (when I started), and I thought maybe we needed more of those...? lol I just really wanted to make other people happy with my graphics, like how I felt happy when I got my first poster in AFF... or something in between those lines XD But I guess it's mostly because I enjoy doing it, and it makes me happy when people like my posters~ 8D

 

 

BH: *COUGH COUGH* Customer here dat lubs yurr graphics! xDD *COUGH COUGH* Sorry, I choke on my own spit a lot. TT_TT So, what programs do you use to do your graphic editing?

S: /COUGH COUGH. Shop owner here who lubs le customer CX /COUGH COUGH. lol dun worreh, yer iz not zee only one O u O /le gives you cough drop. 

It doesn't work often, but hey, IT'S SWEET CANDEH 8D I use Photoshop CS 5.1 'cuz I'm cool like dat B|

 

 

BH: Would you say that Photoshop is easy to use?

S: Well... at first, I'd say it's not that easy to use since there are so many things to learn about Photoshop but when you get the hang of it, yeah I guess it's pretty easy. The only hard part of it is how you put things together, the one being tested here is, pretty much, your creativity. Yay creativity~ (ﾉ´ヮ´)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧/throws confetti. 

 

 

BH: Tell us about your experience with customers. Are there any unpleasant and demanding experiences you have had with customers?

S: Actually, I haven't come into contact with any, per se, "pushy" customers or had any unpleasant experiences with my customers, but that doesn't mean there were some people who didn't follow the rules. For example, crediting, commenting after or before pick-up, and not using the graphics... but it's all good if you just kindly remind them to do so~ ಠ_ಠ Although, I hope I won't have to meet any troll customers.... (ಥ⌣ಥ)

 

 

BH: Haha maybe I'll be that first troll customer. xD What's your specialty in the graphic editing field?

S: Lol I thought you were supposed to be my favorite customer, why dear customer?! WHY XD My specialties are romance, fluff, action, and sometimes angst (not those dark themed ones). (◡‿◡✿)

 

 

BH: Psh *flips hair* I AM your favorite xDD Are there any places where you think you need to improve in editing?

S: Psssshhh /ties your hair. Gurl you too conceited ;P /cough. jk yes chu are o u o <3 /cough. Yes, a lot actually! ; 3 ; I like, and try, to be a a well-rounded person so I want to try doing other themes besides my fortes. I also have a hard time doing complex graphics, and making my graphics "glow". My sister does edits, not really graphic edits, and her edits are AH-MAZING. OKAY. IT GLOWS AND IT'S SO HD/HQ LIKE I CAN'T EVEN. Don't tell her I said that though. >__> OTL (If you're curious her tumblr is: http://kuroi-pearl.tumblr.com/) she's known for her eye edits in the EXO fandom, and made it mainstream. (yesh, I ish proud okey -3- AND LIKE AH SED DON'T TELL HER I SED DAAAT. IT'S EMBARASSING （。-＿-。）) anywaaaays going back to the topic /flails around. I have a lot more to learn about Photoshop, and I hope that my customers will give me a lot of challenging ideas 'cuz I certainly need to work on my editing. XD

 

 

BH: Lol, well I won't. But it's not my fault if she sees this >_< Well, that's it for today! Any last words?

S: She won't, I'll make sure she won't.. muahaha =w= Umm... remember kiddies, if someone asks you to go into their white van and bribes you with candy, be wise and don't get in the van. /goes and rents a black van. I KEED. Goodbye folks! I'm glad I was chosen as an interviewee, aaaaaand I hope you have a good day! /cough. don't forget to stop by my shop too, and drop a word on my wall,'cuz I is a lonely keed /cough.°˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖° /waves and throws kisses and hearts everywhere.
