Stamp of Approval

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So, over the years I've receive quite a large number of faves for the Nintendo DS Original stamp I created.



On the one hand, it pleases me greatly that I've touched a nerve among fellow portable gamers.  However, there is the dearth of faves or views of my actual art.  I mean, the stamp is a cut and paste job at best.  Sure, the stamp had to be created over a transparent layer, and the scalloped edges created pixel at a time.  But outside of that, the image was taken from the Nintendo Web site and shrunk down to fit.  The text is standard Windows fonts stuff.  There's really not much to it.  Granted, I thought the wording was rather clever in a punnish sort of way.  Screw?  Lite?  As in light bulb?  Get it?  Oooookay.  Moving along...

So, anyway, the popularity of this thing, which took me maybe half an hour to pop off, sort of niggles at me.  So much so, I've come to a decision.  I normally make it a habit to thank each and every person who faves a piece of art of mine.  But starting today, I am no longer thanking for faving the stamp.  Believe me, I'm happy that you appreciate it.  Go ahead and fave to your hearts' content.  Use it on your blogs and journals even.  Consider it public domain.  You'll notice my name's not even on it.  But, I didn't invest much of myself into it.  Extremely little in fact, other than griping about the turnover of new DS devices Nintendo seems to be foisting upon us.  As such, I guess the stamp is getting a little dated.  That's progress, no matter how forced.

What was I saying?  Oh yeah.  No more active thanking for faving the stamp.  You'll have my tacit approval instead.  Oh, I'll still respond to comments on it, of course.  Because hey, let's face it, I'm a sociable guy. :)

Because, I know a guy named Brandon Earthbreaker on Wizard101 and you made yours the exact same way my friend Brandon did, balance school with a storm extra, same name and everything. :P
