Welcome to Creative Evolution, an InsaneJournal userpic archive! The idea behind this journal is to catalogue my journey as an icon maker from my humble beginnings on LiveJournal to now. The icons posted here were all made during my days on LiveJournal and posted under various names. (I tend to be a little bit of a journal gypsy which is why my current icon journal is called ![[info]](https://www.insanejournal.com/img/community.gif) icon_gypsies!) You may notice that I'm no longer on LiveJournal. This is because LJ's horrible customer service finally drove me away in early 2008. I don't want to support LJ by adding content to their suck-tastic website.
History:
I started on LiveJournal back in November 2002. (That was back when we needed codes to sign up. Remember those days?) I soon became fascinated by the 100x100 pixel userpics that everyone had. I started making icons in July 2003. My first icons were really rough (as you'll see) but I was proud because I made them myself. I soon graduated from a basic photo editing program to Paint Shop Pro 8 which I still use to this day. Over the years, I've learned techniques and tricks to make my icons better. I find that icon making is a fun way to express my creativity. Plus I met my two dearest friends through icon making!
