Non-Conformist Stamp Made 8/20/7 by Honey

When one wears a symbol, be it a flag, a pin, a ribbon, a bumper sticker, etc. of a community, or a cause - no matter how deep of a person they are, or how intelligent, no matter what their vast & varied their interests, thoughts, or opinions, others *will* relegate them to that symbol. Humans are too deep for that, with too much capacity for personality, intellect and knowledge; we owe ourselves more than to be squished into a logo, a symbol, a badge, or a box of conformity. What the symbol stands for may be a part of who we are, but it is certainly never, ever the whole, and it should never become so.

This is my Non-Conformist stamp, simply made for those who refuse to be labeled; who wished to be known for what they choose to present through aesthetics, through word, and through deed, (for some of us, through artistic expression), and be a vast, whole, deep person from first meeting as opposed to hiding behind the veil of shallow modern symbology.

Use at will. Pass it on. Uh... unlike my other work. ;-)

I am always confused when people ask me did you sleep good? I always wonder if they want me to say no, I made a few mistakes.
:iconsplend:
Fantastic!

Er, how exactly does one go about using a stamp, anyway? :p

You know... from what I've read, you only can if you have a paid account. ...which I don't. :cries: I have friends that have them added on their journal & I would really like a couple on mine; especially *MY* stamp. :ahoy:

This is what the FAQ says: [link]

If you figure it out without an account *please* let me know. :pray:

THANK YOU you put this so simply ^_^ I support this whole heartedly. I'll be using

I'm *not* sure if this will work, but it's work a try. It's :thumb - then the number of the stamp you want to use. It's cheating a bit... like making a thumbnail, but not a thumbnail. So :thumb######:

It worked for me me, but I'm paid now. I know this isn't how they recommend doing stamps, tho. :shrug:

Good luck.

You're *very* welcome. I put a lot of thought into that tirade & it's a subject close to me.

Thank you for understanding. :bow:
