Brief PSA: icons and fanart
Sep. 12th, 2004 04:48 pmI seem to be doing more of them for other people lately, which is a Good Thing.
But since I'm presently clearing my harddrive, I am inspired to let people know this:
I keep the final product (jpg or png or gif or bmp file) pretty much forever. If you lose all your icons in a freak accident or something, I can replace it, no problem.
But when my fairly small HD starts to whimper, the photoshop files go first.
So if I've made you something and you think you might ever want it edited by me or anyone else, let me know and I'll send you a copy of the .psd file at the time.
Otherwise, I might have to say "um. Long gone, only got the .jpg."
And those don't edit at all well.
