GIF Masterpost

A lot of people have shown an interest in adding gif effects to their edits but I know it’s hard to find nice effects just using google search (also I got a mean anon saying I was hoarding things so others wouldn’t use them- so eat crow anon). Here are a ton of links to my favorite gif overlays and a couple of other useful things.
Note: None of these are torrents. I’ve only tried some of the Windows ones so your mileage may vary. If you would like to have a link to my own personal copy of Photoshop CS6, please send me a private message.

sometimes i think about how constellations are an entirely man-made construct and don’t actually exhist inherently in nature. i mean, the universe just gave us stars, and we saw art and myths and stories in them. the capacity that humans have for seeing purpose in the incidental makes me realize just how lonely we are on this planet, desperately searching for meaning elsewhere in the universe.

being bi is just having a crush on a girl and being like “damn if i only i was a hot mediocre dude with cheekbones then she would like me :/” and then YOU end up ALSO being attracted to hot mediocre dudes with cheekbones…..the self betrayal
