Just in time for Halloween, here comes Hipstagramix Halloween!

Here comes the fourth set in the Hipstagramix Series! Just in time for a ztampfrightastic Halloween, now in larger size at 9 x 9 inches! A perfect companion to the Hipstagramix Grunge, Hipstagramix Dreamy and Hipstagramix Painted, makes creating artistic, painterly looking photos so quick and easy.

My dear brother gifted me an iPhone and two of the apps that I most often use are Hipstamatic and Instagram. They make taking cool looking photos very easy and fun with their arrays of photo edges and filters. This has inspired me to create this set that I named Hipstagramix in homage to the source of the inspiration. Your photos will look instantly hip with Hipstagramix!

This Hipstagramix provides you with 6 photo-edges/frames + 6 photo overlays + 6 drop shadows + a square clipping mask for the photo (9″x9″). Mix and match these elements and you will get a variety of awesome ‘filters’. Combine two or more overlays with two or more borders, you’ll get even more! Play with the opacity levels and layer blending mode – the possibilities are endless! You’ll have fun using this set and you’ll love how it transform your photos!

See how it’s being used in layouts – mostly done with Haunting Pirates and Ghostown Series:

So I have been away for two weeks visiting my old folks back in Jakarta, Indonesia. Back to Hong Kong late last night and this is what happened when I turned on my beloved-4-year-11-month iMac (runs OS 10.6.8):

The start-up chime sounded, then a blank white screen appeared. Eventually, a dark grey folder with question mark appeared at the center of the screen, flashing. Nothing else happened. Nothing I could do except to turn it off using the power button.

I cannot run any diagnostic tool because the optical drive has died about a year ago. So I went to the Apple Support Forum to find out how to fix this issue:

I have followed some of the steps described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1440?viewlocale=en_US

First, I disconnected my mouse and Wacom Tablet. Restarted. The problem persisted: white screen, followed with a flashing folder with question mark. So I turned it off with the power button.

Then I turned on my iMac again. Upon pressing the Option key, a cursor appeared. I connected my Apple mouse, and I am able to move the cursor around. But there is nothing there to click, the screen is a blank white, unresponsive screen (the folder with question mark did not appear).

Next I tried resetting the NVRAM/PRAM since I cannot reboot from the installation CD. After the second chime, the computer restarted but the only change happened was the speaker volume became much louder, which indicates that the PRAM has been reset. The screen stay blank white until the folder with question mark appeared and flashing again…

It’s the end of September and autumn is coming in some parts of the world! 30th of September is the expiry date of the ZTAMPF7TH 30% OFF Discount Coupon! Have you used yours yet? If not, here are some suggestions on what to use it for! Some of my personal favorites for autumn:

The Floralique Collection is a timeless series filled with unique elements, great for autumn projects and beyond. Also available as separate packs, but you will save big with the Collection – especially when combined with the ZTAMPF7TH 30% OFF Discount Coupon!

The Nocturn Delights Series evokes magical atmosphere filled with imaginative joyful things, wonderful for various projects. I was thinking of dreamy mid-summer night parties with dancing children and fairies…

And now, for the excitingly spookilicious selection for your Halloween projects!

I created this Ghostown Series back in 2008 and it remains one of my most favorite kits I ever made. I still remember the moment I got the inspiration to create the luminous, wispy ghost overlays and how it then developed into a full grown kit filled with ztampfilicious gothic decadence crafted in fine details. The Ghostown proved to be a versatile series too – great for projects beyond Halloween!

If you’re into pirates… Well, this one is just for you! I vividly recall the joyful thrill I felt when working on this Haunting Pirates Series… drawing the wispy cobweb strands one by one, painting in details unto the gleaming skulls, putting together the floating, ghostly skeletons, forging the swords, dabbing the blood stains… Well… see them for yourself:

The Masqueradia Set is just awesome for costume parties, it is easy to make with fabulous results! I’ve used them myself for a few Halloween parties :)
