Steemit, I got a new footer! What do you think?
My name is Shannon, I am a digital designer, I write about my life and I like fries.
I thought it was time for a new footer. I wanted something more personal and something that represents me a bit more. The sea one is nice and I like warm weather, but it doesn't tell anything about me! SO I CAME UP WITH THIS PIECE OF SHI-BEAUTY.
:D :D
For reference, check my old footer here:
So I was playing around in my fabulous designing program because initially, I just wanted a new picture. Why just a new picture though if we can make the whole thing new and amazing?!
I started out with the bar, add a nice shadow, add some fancy font and tada! However, it was still similar to the other one.. Recently I've been working with patterns, so I guess I could use that one for my footer aswell, right?
Then, I started playing with the image. What do I want to use? Initially, I was thinking of some nice snowy landscape, but how does that describe me? Adding a picture of myself isn't good enough and also is a little bit too vague. Like what is that piece of brown hair? When I look at my friends, they generally tease me about my eating habits. SO FRIES IT IS. I LOVE FRIES. FRIES AND CHICKEN. FRIED CHICKEN. OH GOD I AM HUNGRY NOW.
Ahum. Okay. So when you look at my footer, you see fries. Now what? That's still not personal enough? What about a picture? But somewhere else.. I still like the idea of a picture. Let's find something fancy and put my face in it.
As a cherry on top, I just wanted to put something down that describes me and my behavior on Steemit. I think being short and to the point is exactly what i need: My name is Shannon, I am a digital designer, I write about my life and I like fries.
.....
Who-oh! What is this?!
WHAT IS THAT UGLY PIECE THERE? Do you see that part of brown where the bar continues? IT NEEDS TO GO!
Aaaahhh, yes. Much better.
Thank for reading my not-so-informal-post-but-I-hope-still-somewhat-entertaining-post. Cheers!
I think that this post is overcrowded with footers, so let's see it in action in my next post. Thanks!
Looks great! How do you get it to display in the centre though? I've been trying for ages and cant seem to get it to work!
You mean in the posts self? Just use
<center>content</center>

Je naam is Shannon! Ik ben een digitale ontwerper! Ik schrijf over mijn leven en ik hou van frietjes!!!
Jouw naam* haha! Well done, Google Translate :)
Hahaha! I'm still trying dear @sjennon! Google is my only friend helping me out!
Cool footer btw! Wish i can make one very creative for me one day!
Haha, practise makes perfect!
Awesome stuff :) What is your favorite software for editing?
It depends on what the goal is! I use Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign and Figma :) For this one particular I used Figma.
Really.. I didn't even know about Figma until now. Awesomeness!
I love it!
Wow Shannon! This looks really cute and clean. I love how you kept it simple and still catchy with the photo of the fries. Love the font choice too! Glad to see another wonderful designer on here. :) Just followed! Looking forward to seeing more cool stuff.
Thank you for your well thought comment. I am glad you like it and I look forward to using it :D
See you're new here. Welcome to Steemit! I just upvoted both of your posts 100% :)
Do you draw digitally aswell?
Wow thank you! That's so very kind of you! Appreciate the welcome. ^^ And yes, I do! The picture I used in my intro post was done all digitally!
That's amazing. What program do you use!
Aww, thanks. I think your digital imaging skills are superb as well. ^^
I use a Japanese program called Paint Tool sai. It is used mainly for painting digitally
Thanks!
I know about SAI :) I just don't know how to use it properly.. Would love to see one of your tutorials or something similar!
Saw you're a fan of Moana, would love to see some cute art about that!
I am following you :D
cute so I resteemed this and the shirt
Thank you so much!
It reminds me of honey until I see the fries lol Do you guys dip them in mayonnaise like the Spanish do? Bleckkkkkkkk
Well, maybe that describes me even better. I am as sweet as honey, untill you look closer? :')
Mayonaise is my second name. I'd like a lot of it, please.
Haha I won't get too close lol
nice. i will like the one with your face on. like 1, 6 and 8. this is really nice @sjennon. great job
Thanks!
I like it. It's orginal. Makes me almost want to put something together.
What's stopping you from putting something together!
This looks good and unique. Maybe you could design something for me sometime. I like fries too but had to reduce consumption when it was getting too much.
That sounds hardcore. I like you.
