Dirty Deeds .. Done at a Reasonably Negotiated Rate! If you didn't see it in 2009, it's new to you!
Well, I have been making captions for over 10 years now! By that, I mean, I don't mind most of the captions I've created since 2009, and it's when I started to get the modern design and feel of captions I made around this time 10 years ago. Anything else I consider the Proto-mential Era. Here is the original .. for your viewing pleasure.
This is the a bit simpler in design than what I'd make now, which doesn't have shadowing, gradients, multi-layers of effects, etc .. but it still looks enough like a work of Mentia. Ironic part is that I did use those things in captions before this one, but I hadn't gotten to the point where it was so codified. The first version of the caption you saw has what I consider to be my most up to date caption design set-up, I just did it so that we can have a side-by-side comparison. Just flip between the two and you'll see the difference that 10 years can make.
It still uses one of my favorite fonts, but as I got more detailed and verbose in my writing, it doesn't quite look as good condensed. Here in this caption, it gets plenty of space to breathe.
So, if you were wondering where Dee's brain was at 10 years ago today, I was making this caption for .. someone who's been long gone from the Haven. I'll have to look up their actual name there. It's only morph as tagged on the filename. Hmmmm, no names that start with that, perhaps it was made for someone whose name ENDED with morph. Now I feel bad I can't recall who exactly it is! Oh, It's probably the_Morphking. I knew it'd come to me!
I am not sure it's even been posted to this blog at all, so it could be a blog exclusive! Have fun commenting about the caption, and if it seems like a Dee caption, or if something feels off about it. Hopefully everyone understands the caption without a writeup, but if anyone is confused, ask below and I'll let you know if you are on the right track!
