Received the official offer from the buildingsociety for buying my apartment. As expected the real estate agent made a higher estimate than the one I used to apply for a mortgage, so I will have to go to the bank again to see if I'm worthy. I've also realized it's not just that loan that's going to change my financial situation; I also have to consider taxes (tax-returns?) and additional costs for ownership of a house. *sighs* I'm already tired of playing the adult.

Why are there no new Big Bang stories in the weekend? I could use the distraction. Although it's rather intimidating to see the art that has been made so far. Jeebus. Even if you're not in the SPN/J2 fandom, you should check out this artwork:
woodstarling made beautiful character cards for "A Spotlight On These Desolate Dreams" by mournthewicked.
And dauntdraws's glorious graphic drawings make me wish there was a whole comic of "SuperCross" by lazy_daze.

The various Photoshop artists have suprised me in both good and bad ways. It's not in my nature to feel insecure about my work, but it has been a bit overwhelming to see all the different kinds of styles;) The only thing I am a tiny bit worried about is the pixelsize of my art. Since I usually work for high resolution printwork, size has always been an issue when making online designs, so to force myself to keep things LJ-friendly I am working with a 600 pixel width maximum for my banners. Seeing some people post HUGE artwork makes me wonder if I shouldn't have started out big as well. I really don't feel like building from scratch again. Oh well, the 'big' in 'bang' is really only meant for the wordcount of the stories, right? RIGHT? *bites lip*
