My rookie mistake for not factoring in such a growth 😰

Clement Tea @kuehmerlion.bsky.social · Nov 27

Why did my second batch of kueh shaker "grew" a size bigger? 😭😅

So... some stuff happened that led me to break my piggybank and purchased a soft copy of DaVinci Resolve Studio online.

Was super ready to get into it, only to be told I have to wait indefinitely for my license code because "it is on backorder as the studio is currently out of codes". Ehhhh???? 😰

Okay, problem resolved. PDF/X-4 seems to work for the printer. But yea, these could have been avoided if I have done all my earlier artworks in CMYK back then. Generally, it shouldn't matter with digital printing, but it's a lot more trouble with offset printing.

Lesson learnt!

Clement Tea @kuehmerlion.bsky.social · Nov 25

Some of my images were created in RGB in the past, and I have learned better to now work in CMYK for printing purposes.

But sigh*, the printer's proof I received was so unacceptable. I am hoping converting it to PDF/X-4 myself (as the colours are what I want) will fix this though...

Clement Tea @kuehmerlion.bsky.social · Nov 25

I always knew RGB conversion to CMYK could result in the loss of colour vibrancy or desaturation... but I didn't think the opposite effect could happen as well?? Why did the image became overly-saturated 😭

Printing books in bulk is really EXPENSIVE. And that's not even factoring shipping cost. I thought I have myself mentally prepared for this, but seeing the actual numbers now...

How am I going to recover from this financially 😭

explain your username:

I have always been very bad at naming stuff, so when I was thinking of a new username, I took two nouns that were closely related to the personal project I was working on at that time, and smashed them together. Voilà~

"I have a kueh, I have a merlion. UH! Kuehmerlion!" 😂

harumoon (busy😔) @hrk700moon.bsky.social · Nov 16

explain your username

went by the name haruka from free! but thought it was too long so "hrk". "moon" is there simply bc I like it and also bc I get the moon tarot card often. "700" is a combi of my fav numbers or maybe it was a recced number idk then I mashed them together with the underscore

悦き晴 @etsukiharu.bsky.social · Nov 16

explain your username

i was 12(?) wanted a unique username for myself but i am head empti so i just direct translated my cn name and got etsu haru but it doesnt roll well so i added a ki in between.

(fun fact: my username was takane enomoto in g+ bc kagepro... but for identity sake here i am ✨))

I would like to think the book is at least 95% done. There are still plenty of stuff I need to iron out, though it is slowly inching towards the finishing line!

Stressful and nerve-wrecking, but also very fulfilling to see my work reaching fruition. ☺️

He applied medical patches made with strange-looking dead skin and torn-off wet magazine pages as a temporary solution. The patches were secured with rubber bands, but it gave me some respite. I woke up from my dream, but man, it was wild. Thank you for reading this dumb, little story anyway haha

Clement Tea @kuehmerlion.bsky.social · Nov 15

Outside, we came across this older man in his 60s who called out to my cousin as she was having trouble with her watch. The elder offered to fix it for free. He then noticed I had nasty rashes on my arms (I don't in rl) and diagnosed that I should stop eating fried chicken—but braised is okay.

There were some mundane scenes after that, such as getting sidetracked at the nearby shops selling antiques and retro games. My cousin (not a gamer) was looking at a game case titled Final Fantasy 2, and she exclaimed, "Wow, they got FF X-2 here too!". I was too lazy to correct her.

I didn't want to join the queue, so I looked at the dishes around the other side of the perimeter. I found some barely-touched veggies, like xiaobaicai with oyster sauce, stir-fry tofu etc., and I happily settled with those.
