Hello, my name is Mimi

written on December 20, 2009 in WWW

No, not me, but this thing to the left. Ever since the snow storm Friday night/Saturday morning, I have been snowed in my house. We got a total of 16 inches of snow, breaking the 1932 record making this snowstorm the biggest the Washington DC area has ever seen. Being snowed in, bored and all, I decided to get started on the logo/mascot for my portfolio. After about 3 hours, I got her *points to the left*.

Her name is Mimi, and I’m crossing my fingers hoping you guys can tell what it’s supposed to be. If you can’t, I’ll give you a hint: my portfolio site’s new name is going to be Origamee. Anyways, Mimi was first a photo, then after I put her in Vector Magic and edited the bitmap like hell using my pen tablet, she became what you see now to your left. The eyes and mouth were added last in Photoshop, and I didn’t touch Illustrator at all, since I can’t vector for life.

So please tell me what you all think of Mimi, suggestions and comments more than welcome. And to prevent further confusion (actually, it might cause some confusion initially), you can all call me Jenny instead

Don’t forget to vote for my design at CSS Creme! A big thank you to those who voted and spread the word for me
