Frequently Asked Questions
This page aims to answer those questions that often get asked. If you have a question that isn't on this page, please contact me. Please also read the Terms of Service for other information regarding usage rules.
Q How do you make your graphics?
A I use Adobe Photoshop CS2 to create the graphics for layouts, icons, friends only signs, etc. The process of actually creating them involves a variety of many techniques which would be impossible to explain in one go. The tutorials on Spiffing feature just a select few of the techniques I use to make my graphics.
Q Could you teach me to make my own graphics?
A Unfortunately, I have neither the time nor the resources to give private tutoring to everyone. If you would like to know how I do something, you could check out the tutorials.
Q How long have you been designing?
A I can't remember the exact time I started making graphics. But I estimate at about 3 years.
Q I love your layout! Could I use it for myself?
A Sorry, but Spiffing's layout is intended for Spiffing and nothing else. So it is not available to the public for their own use. I do however, have a collection of premade layouts that are downloadable at various places, such as Celestial Star and Day Dream Graphics.
Q Why do you create this site and it's content?
A Everything I make and display on here is a result of a hobby (or boredom, whichever way you look at it XD) I have. Since I make so many graphics (and way too many to use for just myself), I figured to put them on the web for others to use.
Q Do you make any money from this site?
A Because of the nature of the images I use in my graphics, I'm not permitted to make any kind of profit from them. Therefore, I don't. Everything you see on Spiffing is free for use. However, textures ARE works completely by me, so if you'd like to use them for any commercial work, you will be required to purchase them from me.
Q I hate your site. You suck (Not a question, but often said)
A If you don't like my site, why are you even on it? Do yourself a favour, get off it, and never come back if it makes you that upset. Out of sight, out of mind ;)
