Mind redirect

Jul 09 2017

I wish there was a Mind Redirect.

Have you ever had the experience where your mind is stuck with an idea? You can’t detach from it. Yet, it’s an old idea that has absolutely no ground in reality. As if your mind points to an outdated repository to download its libraries that allow it to function well. This leaves you with a sick mind that doesn’t function well because it doesn’t have the correct libraries! It keeps querying something that doesn’t exist anymore and that is not real. It is so crazy. If only there was a Mind Redirect to redirect your mind to ideas that work with reality! No, seriously!

I don’t know how to liberate from this. If I could script my mind, I would totally do it… but how could I right now! Damn. Instead, I will have to tweak my perception into thinking that something in reality is not the thing that I was expecting and so on.. so organic, so inefficient!

UGHHHH UGHHHH UGHHHH! #AgonyOfTheBeing

Image ratio calculator

Posted on July 4, 2017 by eloone

Finally I coded my image ratio calculator…!

I use it to calculate the dimensions of the image I want to create with a precise ratio. Usually I only create 16:9 images, but since in Photoshop you sadly can’t set the image’s dimensions at creation based on a ratio (at least the ratio I’m interested in), I built myself this little tool. In Photoshop this is what you see:

Photoshop ratios

No 16:9 ratio. Yet, 16:9 is my favourite, since it’s the HD widescreen dimensions. So in my tool you just set your preferred orientation and dimension and it calculates the dimensions with the ratio that you provide. It saves me really a lot of time in my process. Even if Photoshop provides a way to create an image from a custom template with your custom dimensions, I don’t naturally recognize that such template is a 16:9, I always end up recalculating the dimensions… So I really need this! And maybe so do you! Bookmark it already:

On the subject of images, I will elaborate later. But yeah, sometimes I produce stuff! This is mine !!👇👇👇 😉
