Fake it 'til You Make it .. or Meet the Parents!

Sometimes you have to just go with the flow!


Made this one a few years ago for Sissytif. Its always hard meeting your girlfriend's parents for the first time. You have no idea if they are going to like you or not, and you don't want to blow it big time as it does put a strain on any romantic relationship if you don't have any allies within the family.

Making the parents some sort of magical wielders just amped up that nervously a few times, don't you think? Sort of like if you had to deal with Endora from Bewitched if you were living with Tabitha .. I imagine that poor thing had to vanish from sight to have any sort of normal romantic relationship!

Speaking of, sometimes its fun to be a side recipient of your own caption. The fact that I don't often reference the "Dee Dee" side of my preferences in my own captions made this one stand out for many of the original reviewers on the Haven. Petra noted:
*Giggle* I love it when DeeDee makes an appearance in your caps Dee. Picturing you as a man-hungry blonde bimbo always makes me giggle. It's so different from your normal self, but sometimes you gotta let your control slip and do what feels natural right? Grin

Great cap. This is a wonderful premise and I can't believe I haven't seen it before. Hooray for you!
Sarine thought it was interesting I went that route too.  I try to reference other captioners when I can, as it does give someone a sense of community, and also as sort of a reward for giving lots of comments or in appreciation of their work. Jessica had been gone for about a year at that point, and the other major blonde bimbo on the haven at the time was Dalene, who I think had gone away for a few months. With that, I didn't mind putting my bimbo character inside. I am sure that Dee Dee would love to be a beautician


I know this probably SHOULD be a Halloween posting, but it isn't quite Halloween here so I will hopefully be posting something Thursday night. Be sure to check out all the captions from the last week or so. Pretty much every one of them is brand new and a few of them are BLOG EXCLUSIVES so that means you've not seen them anywhere else!

And by the way ... RED SOX ARE THE 2013 WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS!!

What's the Worst That Could Happen? (2 panels) .. HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Go back to bed Chelsea! Its not too late!



Here is the caption I made for Chelsea Baker as part of the "Scare the Girl Into the Panties" caption event that was going on at Rachel's Haven. The scenario I ended up with was a "Witches Circle" which I am much familiar with, as you may have read in the blog post, "The Wind-up AND The Bitch" 10 days earlier. I really couldn't find any good source photos that would have given me anything to work with, and its a shame because I could have probably written up a fairly accurate ritual to make Chad into Chelsea.

I'm sure people will like this, but ir seems a bit disjointed to me, though often that is what you get when I am creating a caption, owing to my ADHD. I had a pretty good mood going in the first panel. Even with a limited amount of words, I thought what I had written matched the picture in a fitting manner and then, you reach the second and its Dee's goofy wordplay, albeit with a great artistic rendering of a queen of the damned .. and one that does match the model in the first photo pretty closely if you want to look.

I could blame it all on my watching the Evil Dead series last week, and the anticipation that they'll be filming a sequel to Army of Darkness soon (with both Bruce Campbell and Sam Raimi on board) but I just don't think part 2 lives up to the set-up of the first panel. At some point, I might try to start over from the first panel and make a new series, though I'm not sure when I'd do that. Maybe it'll be some sort of writing challenge for myself.

Regardless of my remarks, I hope you do like it enough to comment. I'd also like to thank those who've visited in the last few days. This blog has had its largest amount of page views since it started, even as some of the posts have had way lower than average hits. I think that means that my best stuff is really good, and the stuff that misses the mark, REALLY doesn't resonate with most people. I hope to elevate my captioning to pull up the lack of quality in some of what I make.


Always thought that this would've been great if the movie company approved it.


Vintage Sissy Propaganda (More inside!)

You have to enslave them somehow!


Whipped these up about a week or so ago and figured I'd post them all at once, since they aren't exactly captions but maybe more like TG ephemera? Perhaps they are more related to the ORLY or Icanhazcheezburger? type internet meme? Anyway, I hope you enjoy!


I am listing them in the order in which I created them. I had the 1st picture stored on my computer for many years, ax I thought at one point it might make a good picture for the cover of an EP for one of my bands, but was never used. Once I created that one, I thought about making some more, and Rosie the Riveter immediately came to mind, though she's been rechristened "Auntie Sammie"


The third one I just made but it doesn't "look" like the vintage ones, even with the old time font. I messed around with some settings on photoshop but nothing really grabbed me. Oh well! Can't win them all I guess .. it doesn't matter who wins the battle, as long as you win the war!


Next post should be a caption I made for Hailey. Had fun making it and I hope she'll post it to her site when its up here on my blog. If anyone wants to use a caption I've made, I have no problems with you doing so, as long as you include a link to the blog here and list me as the creator. I love getting new people to come check out my work and hopefully getting involved in the TG community!

What a long strange World Series it was!


Usually the losing team makes a caption for the winner but I was in a good mood and wanted to rub in my baseball teams good fortune on a TG blogger friend and I had a good picture to make one with. It was a case where I could put down fairly easily what I had in my head and craft it around the image I had saved beforehand. I think she should have to post this to HER blog, don't you think?

I've been making more blog exclusives lately and it seems to be a mixed bag. I made one for Britney I don't think she's seen yet but was well received, then posted a few propaganda vignettes that while they got a comment or two, really seem to have dropped off the face of the earth, gathering less than 400 views after being at the top of the blog for 48 hours! I changed the title this morning hoping that people would see that there was more than one posted, thinking maybe people could read the whole first one without clicking to make it larger and decided it wasn't for them.

I am starting to wonder if the stigma of having "Sissy" in the title is keeping people away from reading what I had to say. I am hoping that this isn't true because I like to think that this blog has so many different ways of transforming guys into feminine beings that people might try to keep their minds open, and not take sides in a "realistic" vs "magic" battle, especially since that although many of my captions could be implied magic, I have left the method so vague that its up to the reader to decide what actually had happened. I've had an increase in hits from Leeanne's blog, so its nice to see people make their way over from there and get a bit more into a fantasy based realm and relax.

Speaking of which, I think its time to get a head start on the Christmas Links Exchange. I will be thinking about ways to make it even better than last year, and your brainstorming is needed too! Got any ideas to make it even more inviting? Let me know and we'll get it moving. I would like to see us start gathering everything around Thanksgiving. If we get lots of people involved, we could try to turn it into a "12 links of Christmas" starting on the 13th of December, or we can do like last year and make a huge post with all the links together on Christmas Day. Lets get those thoughts written down!



Ask Mistress Dementia .. from The Haven Quarterly!

It doesn't hurt to Ask the Mistress ... does it?

There have been 4 official issues of The Haven Quarterly released, and a fifth one has been in limbo for many months now.  I really do hope it comes out but there have been many more pressing issues there, like losing a big chunk of our caption database and finding out that the server wasn't backing up our information after being told it was part of the deal! AARRGHH!

Anyway, one of the segments that I worked on, along with Simone and possibly Steffie and Lady Victoria was an advice column called "Ask a Mistress" which was pretty much what you think it would be. Most questions were written by Steffie and Jennifer and were lots of fun to answer.
Hello Ma'am. I'm a cashier at a local supermarket and have been for a few years. Recently there's been a girl that comes in and buys a new pair of panties, pantyhose, bra, lipstick, skirt, and well... you get the picture. Every week, she has me ring up something new and femme. I sack it up and send her on her way. At first I didn't think anything about it, besides the fact I wish she was buying them for me! (who doesn't?) But here's the thing, I think SHE IS! She's been looking at me kinda funny the last few times and I'm getting a little paranoid. She has made a few off color remarks lately that, while very very exciting at just the thought of it, are also wracking my nerves! Thinking back on it, she's been looking at me funny from day one, I thought it was just some playful flirting or perhaps she thought I was handsome. But now I think she's been sizing me up this whole time! Last week she even said the hot pink lipstick she was buying would really bring out the color in my eyes! If she really is planing on making me over into her lesbian girlfriend, my question is this. What should I do to prepare myself for this and how do I get over my own nervousness? I realize this is a dream come true for many gurls out there, and I'm not one to look a gift horse in the mouth!
Here is my reply to the question. Trust me, it looks SO much better set into a page format with a great picture on the side of it!
 
Dear Tempted, first off, who said she wanted you as a lesbian girlfriend? Don't you think you are being a bit presumptuous that this Goddess is interested in you sexually? Maybe she is looking for a sissyboi to teach the finer points of cock-teasing, to bestow the gifts of femininity to someone that would never measure up as a real man, or perhaps just needs her credenza dusted by an obedient and well trained maid..

From the sounds of your letter, I think you are already presenting yourself as a submissive little slut, and this Goddess caught your desperate scent to be dominated, and has taken pity on you. This is your lucky day AND your worst nightmare sweetie! I am guessing that her latest conquest is almost ready to be set free and she already has her hook in you, and you'll be dangling for her amusement soon enough. I bet the wait is killing you, right? THAT is the whole point, SISSY!

Now listen up and take my advice. I don't want you playing with your little boi-clitty while I try to help you. Actually, maybe you should. I see a chastity belt in your near future. I mean, the last thing you'll want to do is have to orally clean your silky panties three times a day from the small amounts of man-chowder you produce from being turned on 24/7 .. or do you?

Anyway, I am sure that you want to push the issue, but you do not have a say in the matter. The next time she comes in, you should just listen to what she has to say, and obey subserviently, no matter how embarrassing it might be for you. Your co-workers will see the results soon enough, sweetie! A "Yes Mistress" and a curtsy is an absolute must from now on whenever she arrives in your queue. And if this is who I think it is, you BETTER make sure your hands and nails are cleaner, or I will be bringing up some white lace gloves into your line for you next time, with anklet socks to match!

<><><><>

I do have a way with words sometimes, don't I? That was the first of three "Ask a Mistress" columns that I did, and they got much more subversive and anachronistic. Pretty hard to describe until you actually read them but they are some of my most "short of a full deck" pieces I've ever written.



DISCUSSION QUESTION:  What did you think of what I'd written above?

There's something we need to talk about Sweetie.




Whipped this up a week or two ago and I guess its what you could call a vignette, where its a small encapsulation of an overall story that isn't tied to a person and isn't made as a trade. I saw the photo and what I wrote down is pretty much what it said to me. I was trying to somewhat distill the queasy moments in my stomach I get when I read another true story involving Leeanne and her cheerleader.

I can only imagine the feelings that wash over you if you ended up in this situation. I bet that every single emotion you've ever had hits you right in the gut as you try to figure out exactly what has happened and what is going to happen. I mean, I am sure that most sissies kind of "want" to be caught, but in the right way, with a loving, caring spouse that understands and gives them the exact support they need. However, there is a definite reason WHY they haven't opened up to anyone other than those anonymous souls on the internet .. why they haven't shared something so ingrained into their personality with the very person they think is a soul mate. When the spouse does find out, are they more opposed to the actual idea of all of it, or that they were left out of the loop as this huge momentous secret?

The protagonist is probably the person we'd all like to be .. ready to put all his chips into the kitty and go all in. I like to think that the way I set this up that he does cash out with a bracelet! For most of us though, we are still hanging on in that closet .. which isn't too bad though because its got all our secret stash .. ready to break out at a moment's notice when the timing is just right. Oh no! Is that the sound of a key in the front door??


If its gonna be cold outside, why can't it just be cold! I am never going to get my body acclimated to any one weather pattern if its 70 degrees out one day and 40 the next!

We've replaced his regular wife with Mona .. Can he tell the difference?


Only got one person to respond to the first DIY captioning event .. but its a start! It was written by RhondaTV who gave us a short but sweet caption starring herself! I fixed a few things but its mostly her story. Hope you enjoy it Rhonda!


I wasn't planning on making a caption for it, but since we only had one reply, I figured I'd give it a shot, and limited myself to 5 minutes to get it done. I went tongue in cheek, as it was a fun little picture and it fit into the whole "50's wives have a headache all the time" where she wasn't too keen on sex, but also tied in the old Maxwell House slogan .. and of course his old name was Max.


The next DIY is going to be a bit harder. Let's see what everyone can come up with. If you'd life to make your own caption setting, just ask me, and I'll post the source photo too!


For some reason, this picture reminds me of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy when the couch shows up on a Cricket Pitch!

Goddess Bless Those Who've Served in the Military

For those about to rock .. we salute you!


My grandfather served in WWI and Korea. My cousin served in Iraq and my dad's girlfriend's only child (a daughter) was in the navy, stationed in the Persian Gulf. They all came home "safely" and I use the quotes because all of them suffered in some way. My cousin deals with PTSD and it wrecked his marriage. My grandfather refused to talk about either war. He had his medals up on the wall along with a painting a friend of his had painted of him back when he was in the Navy but wouldn't even tell us what the medals were for.

I'm a pacifist by nature, and one who always questions authority at the slightest provocation. I'd be a horrible soldier and I know it. My grandfather knew it too when I told him that flag burning wasn't a big deal because it was a visual representation of something intangible. You cannot destroy freedom by tearing down physical things ... and you cannot repay a veteran with food, drinks, and a day or two a year to honor them. You repay them with respect and honor everyday, and by being the most YOU that you can be, because they fought for my right to be a whatever sort of American I want to be.

 Whether that is driving a truck in garters and heels, or swishing your way down the street a Rainbow Parade ... Let your freak flag fly soldiers!




Wendy Made Her Choice .. What About You?

Who knew Hobson's Choice was so full of calories?!?


Whipped this one up a few minutes ago for Wendy, who is a terribly sweet person on the Haven that always seems to get me into caption debt. I don't really mind though, since she can be fun to put into various precarious situations. The only problem I have is that sometimes the "Don't like men" issue can arise .. like it does with this awesome source photo I found today which matches Wendy's earthy redhead persona pretty nicely.

I was certain I wanted to use the photo though and figured I could plow through a reason to get her to the end of the story .. namely her eating my pussy until my fillings came out! I through in some light humiliation though .. I can imagine that sucking a replica of your own dick could be a bit off-putting to say the least .. and I'm betting that there is a spell in place that makes all her orifices crave her former dong in equal amounts of lusty allure. Since its a popsicle and not a real representation, she has options also as to how long it takes to draw out her transformation, and since she is fond of being busty and often BBW, I think she'll be sucking off her former faux phallus for quite some time!

I guess that I am really starting to feel better now after a lousy few weeks. It actually snowed this morning and its supposed to be bitterly cold over the next week. I actually hope so, because I really think the yo-yo-ing temperatures is causing my lack of vigor!


I think if I was just starting to get into the whole TG captioning thing today, I'd probably go with Mistress Jolene for a name. Doesn't that song just SOUND like a temptress seducing a man before making him her feminized thrall? I certainly do!

DISCUSSION QUESTION: SOOO, which option(s) do you take? Where do you put your special popsicle and how long does it take to finish it off? I am guessing that if you stick it in your nose or ear, you'll definitely become a airhead bimbo!

Kaitlyn's Not Feeling It Today

She definitely isn't used to feeling what she's got!


As per my posting to her trading folder back about a week ago:
Wanted to make a 'realistic' caption that could capture the mundane after-effects of a change and contrast it with how we tend to construct TG captions and stories.

Of course, I didn't want to get too melancholy so there is still a glimmer of light at the end .. and isn't that what life is really?
I like making those slice of life captions, and I have written many of them over the last year or two. Ironic thing is I have another caption that sort of parallels this one but in another direction. I haven't finished it to where I am comfortable posting it yet. Perhaps I might rework it a bit and give it to Kaitlyn as a sort of counterpoint to this one.

What did I like about the photo? It has a glamour feel to it but she's not giving a huge smile, and its obvious that there is a hand there lifting her chin up. whether metaphorically or just to get a better view of her face. I envisioned that as a mother consoling her recently changed son and from there, I just kept writing until I got to the "zinger" though in this case, its more of a reaffirming callback to some of the dialog spoken previously.

As I had mentioned in the blurb above. We tend to think of ourselves as just, "I'm me!" as opposed to, "My name is Dee and I'm a 666 year old witch that likes to turn men into sexually deviant women!" I tend not to think about my physical appearance that much once I leave the house, and back when I would dye my hair some silly color, I would forget about it and people would say, "when did you go eggplant?" and it would take me a minute to once again add the color to the hair on the top of my head. Same thing goes for shirts, shoes, etc .. I think its just a mental shortcut for us to think of ourselves in a certain way and it takes time to modify that self-image.

What is interesting has been following Calvin/Caitlyn's personal blog where her personal image has been evolving from homebody to contract worker to full-on nurse at his current job. Its fun to see the self-awareness of when things kick in that no long is X happening, but its turned into Y and/or Z. It has to be ruminated upon, which I think happens AS she is writing it all down.


Anyway, I hope people still like this, even though its not quite the whole "wish fulfillment" type captions that people always seem to enjoy. Then again, this IS sort of a wish fulfillment for me as I'd LOVE to have a friggin' cheeseburger right now made of of deceased charred cow meat!

You can't go dreaming your life away, now can you??


Made this one before Halloween and then forgot all about it so it was never posted the Haven or here until now! Sometimes when you get prolific for a few days, captions fall between the cracks. I still hope that Helena enjoys it. One of the perks of commenting a lot is the people making the captions will often focus on keeping the commenter busy with captions of their own!

Hope everyone had a great week! I am just about done with Christmas shopping now as we bought most of the peripheral family members gifts this evening. Found a Yankee candle that was leather scented and I'm sure my dad will enjoy that one! Bought some Dr. Bronner's non-allergenic unscented soap for my daughter (17 bucks for 32 oz!) who is allergic to Aloe Vera which happens to be in like 95 percent of all soap! I don't mind buying stuff like that because I know she uses it. Now I just have to renew her AAA membership card for her birthday and we should be pretty much done unless something good is discounted on Black Friday.

Well, lookie here! The caption with the naked girl had the most page views .. who'd have thunk it?

Made a caption for Hailey's Caption Challenge #7 at her blog A Tights Spot which uses a POV picture! Entries are due by 6 AM on Monday so if you have a chance, drop in and see if you can use the photo in a caption! They are fun to do and if you don't wish to create your own, remember I am doing the whole DIY thing for you as well! All you have to do is write up your text and I'll put it in the caption setting for you!


I think Dave Grohl had it right. Just do a verse and then go RIGHT to the chorus!

The best bachelor party since Adrian Zmed was famous!


As mentioned in a previous post, I made a caption for Hailey's caption challenge since I thought the source picture was quite lovely in  POV way. Figured I would throw her into the leading role and got to work on fabricating something I could submit.

Seemed to me that it was some sort of formal picture, either a prom or most likely wedding and who doesn't love to read a wedding caption? How could we get Hunter into that point of view and make it seem like something that "could" happen, especially in a " The Hangover" movie type fashion?

Once that came to mind, it was off to the races, as I had the framing quotes of "best bachelor party ever" for the start and "best wedding day ever" to close it out. To me, The first Hangover movie seemed to be a homage to the 1984 Tom Hanks movie, "Bachelor Party" so I tried to drag that into my caption. I definitely needed the bride and bridesmaids to be there somehow if I wanted to end the caption with Hunter and Damien dressed as in the photo, so either having them bust the guys for throwing such a wild party OR somehow finding the guy's party while celebrating their bachelorette party worked for me .. and honestly I'm not sure which way really happened.

I didn't want to go "magical" but if you were so inclined to believe that is what happened, I did include magicians in the performing acts.  My intent was for it to be some sort of wonderful mesmerizing of the wedding party, which SHOULD be easy since they were probably inebriated or shocked at the debauchery that was going on. As you can probably deduce, the hypnotist flipped the roles of all those participating in the nuptials the next day. How far along and WHEN the reveal / wake up will happen is beyond me, but I would think ,"You may now kiss the bride" MIGHT be the best time for the hypnotist to take a bow!



Sorry I couldn't fit Nick the Dick into it, but sometimes you just have to say no, even though there are those would relish those wiener jokes!

Are You Trying to Seduce Me, Mrs. Jenkins?

Well, its nice to know that Jenkins has a wonderful wife at home!


I was looking through previews of different amateur porn sites yesterday, as often they are shot well enough to use in captions, and I don't need gyno pictures to tell a story. Even more, they tend to set up the story that you'll see more of if you sign up. I can write my own plot well enough on my own, thank you very much!

This set grabbed me though, because you don't see the full face of the black haired model, but you do see some glamor styled makeup. That, along with the haircut, does suggest a young boy being dressed up by an older woman, especially once I cropped out most of the boobs that are lurking below the bottom of the frame.

I knew I could do the older woman / young sissy in training story that has been done many times before .. probably because its a dream of many young sissies! Why fuck with a good thing, right? Well, how about adding a virile man into the mix with a dash of blackmail? BINGO!

By the way, if you are having trouble reading it, you go down the page then over to the next column and down again etc .. Probably helps if you used to read comics when you were younger!


Was never a huge Bowie fan, though I seem to know a ton of his songs! Must've absorbed all that when I worked at a record store. I think perhaps the image got in the way of the music sometimes.

Truly a body shaper indeed!


Made this one a few years ago for Gwendolyn on the Haven, and I'm pretty sure it never made it up here on my blog. Really kind of hard at this point to know for complete sure since I'm almost at 500 posts and not everything is totally searchable.

Here is what I wrote at the end of the posting to her trading folder:
PS. I almost used this picture as some sort of "Bruce Wayne was turned into a woman" caption ... where the hell would anyone GET a corset like that? LOL
 I had a point I think. That outfit is definitely form-fitting to say the least and almost seems like body armor in a comic book movie! If you could use a garment to change your figure, I would that this would definitely do the trick.

I added a "Reaction" click box toward the bottom of each post, figuring perhaps if someone doesn't feel like commenting, but likes the post, they can at least register a "I LIKE IT!" kind of thing. If it doesn't prove popular, I can axe it but wanted to at least give it a try.

Looking forward to a short week at work since I have Thanksgiving Day off and I took Black Friday off as well. Its more work crammed into 3 days but it will be worth it for 4 days off in a row as its getting so close to the end of 2013 already! Time is flying by WAY too fast!


This song has nothing to do with the caption, other than the mention of the word FEAR and I'm a huge fan of this song, and it was stuck in my head all day for some reason!

DISCUSSION QUESTION: Anything you planned on doing this year that you still have on your list and hoping to get it done before time runs out on 2013? Anything exciting that DID happen to you this year that will make you look back on 2013 fondly?

Is it really all that distracting to the driver, or the pedestrians?


This is the caption I made awhile back but hadn't found a person to fill the starring role, as I needed a person that wasn't in the UK and didn't mind being portrayed as a bit of a cross dresser. I actually had Sammie in mind back then but she was in the middle of a captioning sabbatical and not around the Haven. So when she recently came back, I figured it was a bit of luck that I hadn't tried to re-write it and left it the way it was when I had thought about using her as the protagonist.

The process for the story was this .. I loved her legs and the way she presented herself in the photo, but obviously it couldn't be set in the US or any place where they have the steering wheel on the right side of the car. The idea that "She" was learning how to drive all over again appealed to me, and I didn't want a magical caption .. I mean, if she could be changed into a girl magically, why couldn't we just make her already KNOW HOW to drive on the other side of the road? LOGIC! And people think that we just throw these captions together with no rhyme or reason!

Well, I know that I would have a rough time trying to drive on the left side of the road while in the USA passengers side and thought about visiting one of our TG friends in London. From there I just fleshed out the caption as needed. I think that perhaps my psychology might be a little skewed, but my reasoning is the same as the "if you can't reach an itch, scratch someplace else and you'll forget about the first itch!"

<><><><>

Ahhh, those DIY projects. Sorry I didn't get to them last night, but the New England Patriots / Denver Broncos game on Sunday night was an epic comeback in overtime for the home team, and I wasn't done celebrating until after 1 AM and I had to be up at 7 AM to get ready for work. We ended up with 2 submissions, which I did a little bit of work upon to make them grammatically correct or to clarify a storyline. As you can see, there is quite a lot of room for text so you shouldn't fear about writing a couple of paragraphs. As usual, click on the thumbnails for the full sized caption.

First up is Ian ...


.. and the second story comes from Helena.


Props to both for whipping something up to go with the caption setting. I hope to see at least 3 submissions this time around with the framework posted below. If you'd like to make your own and want the original photo, I can try to post it here upon request.


I should be back tomorrow or Wednesday!

Well, not really .. but why not?


Made this one four years ago to the day .. November 26 of 2009 .. for Alexia. Many people love being a redhead, and Alexia was one of those, but she didn't mind being anything female .. I once made her a bald chick eating waffles (which was one of my first 20 or so captions! Speaking of, here it is in all its really horrible glory!


God, I wasn't even centering my text at that point (April 2008) in time! We all have our crosses to bare I guess ... and the writing is pretty decent at at least. Definitely has my sense of humor!

Anyway, back to the original caption that I was talking about. Its one of those captions I made in Comic Life, back when I was playing with graphic tools other than Photoshop. Its a decent program, and I wish that I could do some of the thought bubbles and speaking boxes easier in Photoshop instead (When I started, I think I was on Photoshop 6 and at least now I'm up to CS1) but I find Photoshop gives me more control over the caption than Comic Life. Bren and Jennifer are two people that added extra dimensions to their captions once they switched over to it from plain old Microsoft Paint .. which NO ONE should be using at this point in 2013! LOL

I really should go back and try it again and see if I can learn it for occasional use, but its really for people that already have a structured story in mind and write it down in Microsoft Word first. That way you can plot out where all the elements will go and how it flows. My method has always been to just put a picture in a background setting, open up a text box right in Photoshop and write my story there, then proofread and spell check it, and finally size the text so it fills up the space correctly. Still, it helps to have as many tools in your arsenal as possible to keep things looking and feeling fresh!



Taste the Rainbow! And a Black Friday Warning!

She cums in so many colors!


Made this one for a newbie on the Haven, Kate Southerland who likes being taken down a few pegs by way of her male character being a racist or misogynist. It was partially inspired by the wondrous antic of Toronto's favorite Mayor, Rob Ford. For some reason, I can picture him having lots of fun if somehow a gypsy cursed him into being a sexy, African American woman. He's just a combination of Chris Farley and John Belushi and a gift to the comedians of the world, although I think I'd be quite scared if he was the mayor of my town!

The picture just really POPS and so I needed to have a background that matched that panache. The title of the caption is exactly what I thought of when I saw the photo for the first time and that dress is entirely yummy, don't you think? I think the model does a good job of filling it out.

For those in the USA, Black Friday is coming upon us. Please be safe out there where lots of tired people may be lurking, and lets try to be courteous to our fellow man in the stores. In addition, make sure you are nice to the people working in the stores as they try to keep a horde of ultra-aggressive consumer wildebeests trample the capitalist landscape from destroying our planet. Those people probably make less than you do and have been working there since 2 AM that morning and have to pull a double shift. And more than anything, try not to shop at Spells R Us ... just saying!


Well there, I hope that everyone that is celebrating Thanksgiving Thursday has a safe and wonderful day with their family and/or friends. Should be around sometime either Thursday night or maybe Friday since I have Black Friday off. We'll see I guess!


and what Thanksgiving would be complete without the Muppets!


Apparently, there is a new special coming out .. they are now working with someone named Lady Gaga or something like that!

In a game of inches, don't give up a mile!


Was a very busy Dee Bee today, with shacking around the daughter from one job to the next on Black Friday and me volunteering to do some Christmas shopping for others that didn't have time since I am already done with mine. Even had time to make a new caption for this... the 500th posting!

I really wish I had something epic and provocative for you, with much insight into the whole human spirit and how we can all live together as one in a peaceful .. yeah right! Its about boobies.

I guess I could try to tie that into the yearning to be feed knowledge like we were when we were young and nursing at the teats of our forebears but .. yeah, its about boobies growing on a former boy.

And hey, it all really does come down to boobies, doesn't it? Wanting to view them, cradle them, play with them in various states of sexual congress, and possibly own some from time to time. Its even that way for women, as I think I may have met maybe 5 women that love their breasts exactly the way they are .. either they are too big, too small, too saggy or misshapen, or they aren't quite a match set, and then don't get me started on the nipples either!

Ursula finally has tits .. now she's cool!



Even when you weren't listening, you were paying attention to Dee!

.. or was that the other way around? No biggie as it worked anyway!


Made this for a relative newcomer to the Haven, Chloegreen, who has a relatively flexible preference list, and hopefully she sticks to it as it certainly gave me some ideas to work with! I think this is a bit more hawt than my usual captions but it still FEELS like a Dee caption, though I can't really describe WHY it still feels like a Dee caption. Just somehow my voice is coming through onto the screen!

There was so much more I could've written, and its something like this that I could end up writing into a short story, depending on how focused I could stay while composing it. I mean, I didn't even get into the bows on her head or the bows on her stockings!

Any requests for what you would like to see next? I don't really have any caption debt so I am free to make whatever the hell I want, and sometimes that is a curse! Its so much easier for me to focus when I have some lines to color in, even if I do end up shading areas way outside what is defined.

I have one entry for the DIY contest from Helena and nothing else. If you wish to take a shot at it, click on the link and check out the caption setting and picture. Whip something up and post it to the comments and make sure you note that its a DIY SUBMISSION! I will probably be posting it on Wednesday or Thursday. I'd love to keep this going so I also need to make a few more for people to tackle with their creativity!



DIY Results .. Plenty of Horsepower and Torque

This one's got a Hemi!


When I was about to create this posting, I only thought I had Helena's entry, so I went back and whipped something up pretty quick so Helena's wouldn't be lonely. Then I figured, I'll do a quick check to see if anyone did anything today and VIOLA! Ian took a crack at it! I just finished dropping his text into the caption setting and with minimal editing .. we've got another DIY caption!

The above one is mine, and as with most of these, I am not writing anything up beforehand. I don't plan on doing something for all of them, but I did end up with an idea I thought I could flesh out in a few minutes, and this is what I came up with. Pretty basic, but it works.


Helena decided that she wanted to try using the picture in her own setting, and I think it came out pretty good. I wish I had given her the edited version as I now see I had done more to it thank I originally thought I had. Seems like I had put a white border around it and cut out the photographer's credit when I put it into the caption setting. Sorry Sweetie!


Lastly, we have Ian's submission, who shows why it's not good to try to take my fertile land from me as perhaps refinancing might be a better option! As per usual, I cleaned up the text slightly to make it fit well enough and probably fixed a few typos as well. Not a biggie and it didn't effect the overall storyline in the slightest.


Figured I'd give people something that might be a bit easier to caption. Not everyone wanted to make a caption that starred a tattooed girl getting into or out of a vintage truck apparently! Go wild and write something up in the comment area or PM me on Rachel's Haven with your work, properly labeled as a "DIY SUBMISSION" and we'll be all set! I think the next DIY posting will be sometime late next week so get working on this one!
