Thanks! I had a lot of fun making it. It was sort of an experiment

Well, I do love space, but the technique you used to make it is what seemed most creative to me. 
I'm not sure how you made it, but it worked really well. Still, no problem! ^^

Hm. I'm trying to remember how I did it...
Basically,I used a circular selection tool and copy+pasted random circles of color from the photo,and used those as planets,the jsut drew a white outline for them. And then drew a couple stars. The secret the clean looking art?LAYERS. Dozens of fucking layers. Until your computer starts to lag lol. That and using the curved line tool. I didn't actually really draw anything by hand,since my drawing tablet doesn't work. But yeah. I use a program called... fuck. what IS it called?? it's a weird name. Ah right. 'paint.net.4.0.19.' It's like...super evolved MS Paint,mixed with really crappy stone age Photoshop. You can download it for free,it works+runs pretty well. Only problem is there's no blending tool and there aren't separate sized for each brush/tool,so if you have your brush set to size 5,then the eraser is automatically set to size 5 also,and you have to switch sizes every time you switch brushes. other than that It's really fun.

Ahh that's so cool!! I love hearing the process behind things like this. It's inspirational ^^
I didn't realize the planets were other parts of the photo. I thought they were just selected colors. But looking again I see one of the planets is an iris... not sure how else to say my thoughts on that other than it's really fucking neat! It's cool that you found a way around not having a drawing tablet too. Even though that sucks. Hm. I use Gimp and I assume it's about the same as that program. The way you described it is really funny though, made me chuckle. You should write Yelp reviews c':

Aww,thanks! Or,um. You're welcome. Ugh. I never know how to respond to compliments like these XD
Yep ^ ^ Hah,I was proud of the one taken from the eye. Thought it looked pretty cool,glad someone noticed!
Thank youuuu ^6^ Yeah,I've been figuring out little hacks and cheat codes for this kinda stuff for years. It's what you gotta do when you're broke af and have limited tech in your house.
Heheheh...it's so true though! I mean,I've only used Photoshop like once,and it was many years ago(my mom had it on her computer and let me play around with it) but yeah... It really is just a sort  of crossover between that and Paint. Exciting and fun if you're coming from using Paint, frustrating af if you've been using Photoshop. Or so I'd imagine.
Aw. Thanks Maybe I should . I've seen some funny ones.

Lol... relatable. But no problem/thank you :^P
Yeah, that one was really cool, you have every reason to be proud of it!
No problem. Ahh, and same here. Not so much with technology for me now though. That sucks.
I've never used Photoshop. I'm sure it must be nice, but I think any program can work if you put in the effort. Even though it would be tedious and annoying to use something like Paint to do things that Photoshop could do faster and easier. But shit's expensive. So o_o

No problem pfft. Yeah. I think it's funny to see how people take things like Yelp so seriously. Then again I'm amused by people rather easily.

Thank you :3
Yeah...you kinda get used to it. Although I'm slowly bugging my mom to get my a phone...might happen in a few years(not exaggerating here for effect,it probably will actually take a couple years for it to happen)
Yeah,that's why my mom has a pirated copy XD(ugh. she has pirated copies of everything.it's how i get my music... i'm sick of being a criminal XD)

Yeah,no kidding.
Man...I really need to get you to watch Sherlock someday XD
