Valentines Thoughts

1518549255238

Valentine’s Day is quickly approaching, and of course, I have thoughts:

1. Am I the only one who thinks the 15th is the REAL holiday? Savings on chocolate is just the beginning. I bought a couple of those steaks that they put into the heart shaped containers. DEAL!

A Political Tale of Two Pillows?

I’m just over here making my bed and decided that the Intimidater needed to get political. With an audience of dozens, it’s my duty to bellow unrequested positions (phrasing).

Those two pillows stand not in mismatched contrast, rather they symbolize the diversity of ladies welcome to share pillow time, upon my alter of physically expressed love or, in lieu of love, impulsive nighttime aerobics.

That, or I have actually lost a pillowcase. Who loses a dayum pillowcase? It’s not like it’s a little sock; It’s a fairly significant piece of fabric, for nekkid foot sake. One would have to be an idiot to lose a pillowcase.

So really, I have no choice, but to go with the diversity angle. Umm hmmm…

I was thinking – 20 Random birthDALY thoughts.

Selfie Love for Valentine’s Likes

 

I don’t just make cool graphics for paying clients. Sometimes, I test things to see how they’ll play.  On Valentines Day, I tested these two images.  The one on the left was used on my very active, personal accounts and the one on the right was used in my IntimiDATER alter-ego/character accounts.  Both got a lot of attention.

First, original pictures are a great magnet for social attention.  Second, a bit of humor always works.  For the IntimiDATER, it is appropriate for the brand to be little edgy, but not over the top.  For my personal page, the better fit is a bit of self deprecation through the faux arrogant shtick.  That’s kind of my sense of humor.  I also talk a bit about self development, so this image worked perfectly for those venues.  You may remember the post “I Know I’m Not Perfect“, as another example.

The takeaways?  Well, I’d suggest using original graphics when you can and use them in a way that showcases your personality or the vibe of your brand.  Humor gets you engagement and some shares, too.

I took these images with my Lumia 950 Windows Mobile phone.  For the “Love Yourself More” photo on the left, I used a tripod with a phone mount.  You can find lots of those, either universal or specific for your phone on Amazon.com.  For the one on the right, it’s just my left arm outstretched to get the shot!

Both of these images were edited using the PicsArt app.  You can get PicsArt on:

Windows Mobile
Android
iPhone
