Hello! First off, I'd like to say two very important words.
Thank you.
Thank you so much for everything! 1K reads? 100+ votes? 100 followers? That's crazy! Thank you guys so, so, so much. A lot of you have supported me heavily and I want to thank you for that.
As much as I'd like to rant on more about my gratitude, though, I'm sure you'd like what I've prepared for you instead.
Yes. I made 15 PNGs (all teen wolf because I had those screencaps lying around). Please give credits because I spent a shit load of time on them. I also have textures and my go-to overlays prepared, which I will give credits to. Please also list those credits as well if you use these!
After that, I have nine face claims, four of them being POC. I also have all of my editing apps laid out. Lastly, I have three edit inspo pics from instagram (I really find these useful) and some ig and wattpad accounts who are really good at editing to recommend. Truthfully, I believe everyone is good at editing in their own way, but these are just the people who came into mind!
If you can't tell, I'm really excited about this. Without further adieu (did I spell that correctly?), here are my thank you gifts:
PNGs
OVERLAYS + TEXTURES
FACECLAIMS
tbfh they're all so beautiful. they're also all in their 20s!!
fun fact: I was suppose to make an original story with Amelia Zadro and Florian Neuville wherein the girl's an accidental troublemaker who feeds the neighborhood cats every Sunday morning and the boy is some artsy cutepie who bandages her knuckles after fistfights and holds her hand for the rest of the day after that. Another fun fact: Ashley Moore is my fancast for Hermione Granger bc black!Hermione is all I need. Wew, okay, moving on.
MY EDITING APPS
SUPERIMPOSE ;
my most used app! It's paid (0.99, I think), but very much worth it. Superimpose is much easier to photoshop with. (TIP: when masking hair, use the magic paint brush tool!)
POLARR ;
my most used fliter app yehey!! Thankfully, it's free. It has lots of features that enable you to fix a lot of things like you can lower saturation of certain colours, etc. Check it out, it's really helpful for editing!
PHONTO ;
Phonto is free and is the only app I use for text. Like, seriously, I refuse to use any other. It comes with a lot of predownloaded fonts but I usually download fonts from the font.com. There are several tutorials on ig on how to download fonts!
PICSART ;
Back up photoshop app, drawing, and collage app. PicsArt has so much features. A lot of people use PicsArt as an alternative for Superimpose because it's free! I mostly use it for collages and drawing, though.
VSCO ;
A good free filter app! I mostly use it for my acc on ig, but for some edits it's really good as well. Most of their filters have this faded effect and all of em are really cute.
AFTERLIGHT ;
Another filter app. It's paid, the same price as Superimpose I think. I don't really like Afterlight's filters but their lightleaks, dusty effects, plus more is what I like the most.
PICFX ;
It's paid, 1.99 I think. Personally, it's not that worth it. I've used it maybe twice or thrice. There's a lot of nice filters, though.
GLAZE ;
Glaze is free but I haven't quite had the chance to explore it just yet. It has a lot of filters wherein it makes your photo look like a painting. Great for some edits!

- wouldn't be surprised if she won the editing games tbh + has a v helpful book covers tips book!
There are so much more lovely editors on Wattpad and Instagram, even more so on Tumblr, etc. Even if you have no clue how to "mask" or what "recolouring" is, you'll get there! Any questions about how I do my edits, I'll be happy to answer.
Thank you all so much for everything!
