Is there such a thing as designers block?
If so i'm afraid i'm suffering from it for quite some time now.
There goes the long awaited carreer change i worked on for the past couple of years.
I guess i'd better stick to the boring IT helpdesk / network administrating stuff i'm doin' for God knows how many years now. I mean, imagine having to make a living out of something your not able to do anymore.
For some reason i came back from summer holidays end of august and WHAM ... bye bye inspiration. The past couple of months I spend endless hours staring at a blank screen or a white piece of paper. Numerous times i made an attempt on starting new projects but got completely stuck not even an hour later. Don't know where it came from but it sure sucks, that's a fact.
Oh well, there's worse things in life i guess.
Halloween's always been a good time of year to get my creative juices flowing. I just love the creepy and scary stuff so today i decided to give it another try.
Here's what i came up with, hope you folks like it :
with special thanks to the gorgeous Suri for being my muse this time around.
Do me a favour, check out the full sized version here ... and please let me know what you think. It's quite important for me to know ...
Update : seeing the lack of inspiration i used the same concept for my anual Halloween card for friends, family etc. Made worse things i guess ... so here it is :

as always ...

The adorable Stellae has a new breathtaking set up for review ... please check out "Your Touch" and leave her lot's of nice comments. Seeing this set goin' live in a heartbeat would make me a very happy camper. 
... and now off for a two week holiday, just me, some good friends, our motorbikes and wide open roads. Should be fun and i definitely think i need this.
Talk to you all soon and thanks so much for all the nice comments on my work!

Hey hey,
Well surprise ... although i couldn't care less for a while i set up a new MySpace account after all.
Feel free to check it out here and if you feel like it, please add me.
In other news i kinda got tired creating just banners, teasers and what not. I know a lot of SG's and Hopeful's really appreciate the stuff i'm doin' and i still have an open request list as long as the river Nile but don't panic ... i will get back to that stuff soon.
Thing is i got quite busy at work lately. On top of that i have to get my final essay finished in order to receive my graphic's designer masters degree by the end of june and also discovered the joy of taking long walks through nature whilst listening to Stephen King audiobooks on my I-Pod. Very addictive ... to say the least. For some reason it feels great being away from everyone and everything for a couple of hours a day. Weird though ... think i'm turning into a loner.
But like i said ... i'll get back to the banners and stuff very very soon.
Anyway, here's a thingy i made for the breathtaking Vice :
Check out the full sized version here.
Bye for now,
Love,

Heya,
BLAH! Couple of days ago my myspace got deleted. Apparently i shocked the puritanical staff with my SG graphics which i've posted in my pics folder, HA! Would be hilarious if it wasn't for the fact setting up a new one will be quite a lot of work not to mention re-adding all my friends will take some time. Don't even know right now if i ever will be setting up a new one. Not sure if i still wanna be part of this kind of intolerant community.
Why is it every average racist moron on a mission with rather dubious idea's or whatever can go his/her own way on myspace but when there's nudity involved, even more or less covered, they simply delete your entire profile without a warning. Guess i'll never get used to that kind of censorship and lack of freedom of expression. Lucky enough i don't have to tolerate this in real life, only online. You see, i'm living in the true land of the free
Anyway :
in the meantime, here's some graphics i've made for Illyria earlier this week :
Keep those request coming ladies, i love it!

Happy New Year ... and all that stuff!
Right back from some New Years Rock 'n Roll Debauchery @ Eindhoven Rock City, which was a rather mindblowing experience HA!
Hope you girls enjoyed the banners / teasers / graphics etc. i've made over the past few months.
No matter what i'll go on with it .... love them, love you and viva El Photoshop!

Hey beautiful people,
Yeah, i'm still on a continual and hopefully never ending photoshop design trip. Thanks to everyone who replied to my topics in the SG Fan Art & SG Army Groups, you girls are awesome! Hope you all enjoy the stuff i'm creating, so here are some more samples.
Everyone who replied to both topics or leaves comment right here will get their banners / teasers / etc.
I love doing all of you HA!
Greetz, love & rock'n roll,

Hola friends,
I seem to be on some kind of a Photoshop trip lately and I'm taking requests so shout and i'll let the creativity flow.
I've been a webdesigner since the mid nineties or something and always been able to come up with pretty groovy stuff for cliënts, friends etc. ... i think. At least no one ever complained but the main reason could be my prices were very reasonable or when i liked the subject i even worked for free
I did most stuff for the fun of it anyway. My real job is network administrator but in my heart i always will be the designer i was at the start of my career i guess.
I took the job i'm doing now mainly for the money but always missed working on webgraphics so i picked up the old habbit again a while ago. Earlier this week i saw a request on the SG site by the lovely Stellae and decided to give it a go. What better way to start than your favourite SG huh?
So if you like what your seeing here, just ask and i'll do my very best to come up with cool banners / teasers / desktop backgrounds or whatever else you might want. Doesn't matter if your an SG, a Hopeful, a member or whatever ... the only restriction is being an active member on SG and treating me nice unless i have proven i'm not worth it
Please feel free to give me instructions on what kind of designs you want, sometimes i have the feeling most of my work suffers one-sidedness and i want to be as versatile as possible.
Well, enough talk ... here are some examples of what i came up with for Stellae.
Greetz, love & rock'n roll!

Hey hey,
My name is Serge and I live in Belgium. I'm working as an IT helpdesker, network admin, wailing wall ;-) On the side I'm also trying to be a webmaster + designer, mostly for bands and friends (or friends in bands). I'm pretty much into all the usual rock'n roll stuff i guess ... check out my profile to find out more.
