The Cover Launch Party is just around the corner! A huge thank you to everyone who participated. The results will be posted Saturday evening. Captain MewMew also has a special thank you: I am feeling under the weather tonight. My personal remedies for subawesome energy are: 1. Water 2. Orange juice 3. Tea 4. Power opera metal 5. Drawing 6. Netflix guilty pleasure shows which will never be revealed to anyone but the NSA (they probably already know my embarrassing guilty pleasure shows). 7. Sleep So far, I'm up to #4. #5 is about to happen while #4 blasts through my tiny computer speakers. Have a good evening, everyone!

We are going to do something fun today! Nothing is more exciting than a flashing space cat gif! ** It is strongly recommended that you view my other photoshop tutorial before jumping into animated gifs. You can find it here: Make Your Own Space Cat - DIY . ** Don’t want to hunt around for awesome space images? Look no further. Actually, scroll all the way to the bottom of this post. I've included them at the very end. Make your own fancy animated space gif: 1.    Using your epic photoshopping skills, make yourself a base image (you can cut an object and slap it onto a transparent background, or you can go the fancy route). I cut the cat out and pasted it into a new document. I created a nifty blue brick background for it. 2.    Use the shape tool and insert a radioactive symbol above the cat’s head. Rasterize the layer (rasterizing it will allow you to punch a hole…you’ll see later on!). 3.    Use the Polygonal Lasso...

Just a reminder: The deadline for the contest has been extended to the 25th!  ...And now for some adorable shenanigans.  "Orders are in, Sir," meowed the calico kitten in his office. She was mature for a three month old. Her pink painted claws tapped the tiny typewriter on her desk. "President Socks has been catnapped." "He always catnaps at noon, Fluffy. He'll wake up as soon as he hears the Oval Can Opener." "No! Not cat naping! Cat napped! " Her fuzzy tail swished behind her. Captain MewMew brushed his whiskers with his paw. "He was last seen in space. A giant cupcake is holding him hostage!" MewMew gasped, but he had handled worse. A giant cupcake in space was nothing compared to the penguins from Icearctica. As much as he wanted to do an inconvenient flashback at the most inconvenient time, MewMew brushed his whiskers again. It was time to get to his space jet. The Falcon-IVXX was the fastest fighter jet in exist...
