Updating Tags?

If you’re a tagger (like me) you sometimes look at the tags you made and think to yourself; “Hmm, I could have done a better job on that tag.” Well, that’s what happened to me this morning as I was looking at my folder full of tags I have recently made. One tag stood out to me the most so I decided to update the tag and I really like how it turned out.

And it got me thinking, do other tag makers do that also? Do you go back and look at your tags and think that you could have done a better job at it? Sometimes all it takes is to add a few items to the tag and you’re done. But other times you need to start over making that tag, because no matter how much you tried, it still doesn’t look right. Now, that has happened to me a number of times.

What can even be more frustrating though is when you are half way in the middle of making a tag and something happens and your tag is lost. I have also had that happen to me in the past. We had an electrical storm one day years ago and I was in the middle of making a tag and the power went out. And then when the power finally came back on my tag was gone and I had to try and remember how I made it the first time.

Anyway, I have found the best way to deal with any of these things is to take your time and do your best because if you do that, then everything will always work out later. Thanks for stopping by and hugs,

My Tag Extras

So, I am trying to decide if I want to share my tag extras in my new group (that I reopened). I have had issues in the past of people not following my terms of use when using my tag extras so that has put me off from sharing them. But I do have a lot of them and I hate to think they are just sitting there when they could be used by others. But again, I am still worried that some people just don’t care about your terms of use these days. They just want to grab and share whatever they find in online groups. Even if it doesn’t belong to them.

I’m pretty sure that’s why some PTU tube artist’s finally decided to stop selling there tubes because they had the same problem. It’s sad really because I loved purchasing PTU tubes from artists. Now, there are hardly any PTU tube shops open anymore and even those that are still open aren’t doing very well with the likes of AI generators popping up everywhere. Don’t get me wrong. I have nothing against the AI generators but I have found that the images that you turn out using them are nothing compared to an artist’s work.

Today there are but a few places that I will actually purchase tubes for my tag making anymore. And when you make as many tags as I do, you always want to use all different type of images and from different places. That’s why I loved purchasing tubes from the tube artists in the past. Some stores had an enormous amount of tube artists who also offered an assortment of tubes in every genre. But those days are long gone now. But luckily, I was able to purchase lots of tubes before all those stores closed and I can still use them today which makes me very happy.

But back to my tag extras. I might go ahead and start sharing my sets of tag extras again in my new (reopened) group. BUT, if I find that people are still breaking my rules when using my tag extras, well, I will have no alternative but to stop sharing them in the future.

Anyway, thanks for stopping by and hugs,

It’s Been Awhile

It’s been awhile since I posted anything so I thought I would do that today.

I haven’t been making any new tags recently because I haven’t really felt like it. Things at home aren’t great and actually they haven’t been great for a really long time. But I won’t go into details about that because I am a rather private person and don’t like sharing personal stuff online.

Instead of making tags I have been busy making new graphics. I like coming up with new graphics that I can use in my tag making and hopefully I will be able to get back to making some new tags very soon.

Country life can get boring at times because there isn’t much to do when the weather is bad. We’ve been having a lot of rain lately which is good for the fields of corn and soybeans that surrounds us but there is not much to do except stay indoors during that time. So, I’ve been busy sitting at the computer lately and when I’m not doing that, I’m plopped in front of the tv binge watching some series on Hulu. It seems to pass the time while we wait out all this rain.

Anyway, since I don’t have any tags to show off today I thought I would end this post with one of my older tags I made years ago. Thanks for stopping by and hugs,
