Three things make a post

whatawaytoburn is doing a Tarot draw. One- or three-card draws are free, but donations are appreciated, and you can get more cards for more money!

aldersprig wrote Cunning Linguist, an awesome story about the English language. (She's also written a lot of other awesome stuff for her Giraffe Call for prompts, but this one is extremely amusing and perhaps has a wider appeal.)

Are there any graphic artists reading my journal? There are some small graphics I would love to have custom made (an icon, a ticker, and donation buttons, to be specific), but I'm pretty broke. I wonder if anyone would be interested in trading custom art for custom writing. I will probably post about this in crowdfunding but I thought I'd send the signal out to my readers first.

ETA: It occurs to me that I could also offer editing work as a swap for art, since I actually do that as my job(s)...

You are most welcome!

Not specifically a graphic artist but I am a user interface/experience person. If it's relatively simple I could probably whip up something for you, no charge except to pay it forward. Let me know. :)

I'm not sure how much of the same thing that is? I mean, I'm looking for small pictures/pieces of art...

Oh, okay. I thought you were talking more about icons/buttons. Sorry!

[clare_dragonfly]

Oh, I see. When I said "icon", I mean a Dreamwidth icon, not like a desktop icon. And a button is to replace the standard Paypal button, which is not very attractive, and I'd like something that is more specific to me--not necessarily something that looks like a button!
