dear you, love me

"Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of somebody else." -- Judy Garland

credit where credit’s due

I’ve been asked a couple times where I get things like the statistics I post, and the images I haven’t reblogged.  The short answer is: anything that wasn’t reblogged, and/or doesn’t have credit attached to it, I made. The long answer breaks it down further.

Statistics
All of the statistics were found and chosen by me, from various sources on the resource list below.

Quotes
Obviously I don’t own any of the quotes, lyrics, or poetry that came from any of the smart people who thought them up.  Some were found through google, others from movies, books, etc. I did, however, make all of the text-on-image graphics that I post (that aren’t reblogged, or have credit to someone else attached).

Images
I don’t own any of the photographs, movie screencaptures, or other images.  I’ve found them on various places, most commonly google images, or fan sites, if the images feature a celebrity.

Other Writings
Any other poem, letter, or other piece of writing that does not include credit to an author was written by me.

Resources
Here are a list of organizations that I’ve used to collect statistics, or just that I find (or have found in the past) to be useful places to find information of varying sorts.
