'Like gems being tumbled,' I whisper to myself, the edge of the sob creasing my words. 'Like gems being tumbled.'

At some point it just has to end, right? Right?! (ᵕ • ᴗ •)

First panel: reaching for a ball that says "finishing another edit".

Second panel: monster holding you back with text that says "still finding mistakes in the next edit"

Okay, it's just criminal that I'm not seeing discussion of this little set of gems on YouTube.

She's got a whle storyline going. This latest installment makes it clear that, if she's not a Captain Awkward fan, they are certainly soul sisters.

You know what would really be useful in or ? Having a warning indicator when a clip you pull onto your timeline will overwrite/replace another that's outside the current view. Here, I made a mock-up.

A repost of one of my first big forays into editing. I'd love to say that we've come a long way since this - but we have not 😂

The photo is of a vibrant green tree standing on a grassy hill against a clear blue sky. Below, is the same image reflected, a mirror image of the tree, but this reflection is a stark, leafless, skeletal version of the tree above. This version is in black and white, devoid of colour.

Nano Banana Pro 🍌

Making "paintings" of my pix with AI... If you are against all uses of AI, please just scroll by without bullying me about it. I know it can be bad. I know it uses energy and water. And still, I use it to make some images and create alt texts and, occasionally, help me to make a readable text from several bits that I found and saved. I shared a post a while ago, where I had been playing with "watercolor paintings". All the images that I used, were original pictures, made by me (links are added). I didn't change anything to anyone else's work. Just used the pictures that I took while I was visiting some places... If you are interested, please do click the "read more" bit... […]

A four-panel collage of AI-edited paintings by Cynni, framed by a sparkly border. The top left panel shows a chocolate Labrador in profile looking left over a grassy hill with a house in the background. The top right panel is a colorful, whimsical painting of a church with a golden dome, a heart, a cross, and a small banana icon. The bottom left panel is a landscape painting of a rocky cliff with trees and a wide view of distant blue mountains. The bottom right panel shows a large wooden sculpture of a cow with a bell, standing on a dirt path in a forest. Across the center in stylized green and blue text is "Nano Banana Pro".
