Gogaji ke charnon mein... (uhhh, how do you translate "extremely time-constrained and apologetic friend, giggly 90s nostalgia buddy, and awestruck fan of your work" into shuddh Hindi 😕...) << uska namaskar 😆 Will reply to the goodbye message right after this running commentary, tab tak shaayad khud par control aa jaaye aur main kuch likh paaun 😭 For now I am going to give my comments for all the updates I missed since Pg111 of your PREVIOUS gallery 😲 But in fewer words than they deserve because a) I don't know how to say as many words as they deserve, they are THAT good b) if I did I would get kicked off IF for using an incalculable amount of forum space, and c) you probably won't even have time to read it because you're busy reading more important stuff now, my genius M.Tech scholar 🤓
Sooo... before I got busy and started missing updates, you had made me the world's most BEAUTIFUL Janmashtami sig from RS Shri Krishna. I commented on it, but let me just tell you that those words could not do justice to how hopelessly in love with it I still am. It has to be one of the best mytho sigs ever made, only you could have done such wonders with those pics and chosen the right brushes to convey the magic of that moment. When I remake my slideshow, that will be a permanent feature of it as it already is with my screensaver. It was beyond mindblowing 😍
Onto the updates - first one I missed had some Twilight... you're a fan? I never knew!!! And those were among the best Twilight sigs on all of IF because your colorings and texture choice always captured the mysterious and dark mood of the series so perfectly... yaar those sigs and your Aish sigs, aise hai ki is non-fan ko bhi fan bana dete hai... mujhe kyun bigaad rahi ho 😡🤣 j/k j/k... but that is indeed the extent of your mastery!
Then came some requests, of which the Madhubala sig you made Kriti had me totally jealous and wishing it was mine... that has to be the most classy and elegant sig I've ever seen!!! When you return for some break time you HAVE to make me a matching one... I don't know on who I want it, but tab tak decide kar lungi 😆 The 2nd Masha Allah one with the extra touch of red... that text is the perfect way to describe that sig!!! Haayeee 😍 It also had this super stylish MSK sig which I will be stealing soon. Big fashion magazines with their trendy jeans and cologne advertisements would look pale next to it 😎
And after that you opened this SRC #6 in which I reserved a post to congratulate you and tell you I'm so so so proud of you for making it SO far in your creativity, starting with that local shop @ RF that only we mytho buddies knew about and bugged you for avis all the time and used avis from no one else because you so patiently put up with us 😆 To this #6, by which time you've become one of IF's most skilled and sought after siggiemakers of all... and you still put up with us just as patiently 😆 I get so happy to think that yeh jiske shop open hone par itni lambi line lag jaati hai, apni Kamalnayan and 'Lucky' bhakt Swati hi hai 🤗
The first update in shop 6 was requests, jinme Pari aur Janu ke RadheShyam wale were my obvious favorites ❤️ And there was also one that had pics of HAHK and HSSH... yayyy 90s
Then came the one that had these two masterpieces, two of the sweetest new Ramayan sigs that have ever been made... such powerful colorings they had that even non-mytho people probably stopped and stared at their beauty 😍

Both will soon be in my dabba!!!
Then you made lots of pretty avis led by Janu's Lakshman Rekha request, along with some stunning Aish sigs in which you managed to make her look even prettier than she actually is... amazing 👏👏👏👏👏 My fav was this one from Guzaarish, she acted really well in that movie and it was so touching 😭 http://i.imgur.com/5DtBi.jpg
And dude, you made a BARSAAT sig!!! On the song that is the BEST thing about the movie, a movie that probably only you and I remember watching when we were the same age and everyone else has forgotten 😆 I love you my 90s nostalgia buddy 🤗
Then you made the cutest father-son sig of Mahesh Babu and his bachchoo for Aish, I LOVE those pics and I LOVE the way you siggified them even more ❤️ He doesn't look old enough to be a father but he sure makes an adorable one 😍 You also posted some beautiful Sita Swayamvar avis that day in which the coloring made the scene look extra sweet ❤️
Tat paschaat Gogaji ne prastut kiya ek devotional siggie special, undoubtedly the most wonderful concept for an update that anyone could possibly conceptualize 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Each and every sig from those was infinitely awe-inspiring, could literally hear bhajans playing while seeing them because they were sooo bhaktimay 😍 All your devotional sigs are saved in one folder on my desktop to be used as my screensaver, and every now and then my mom and dad see them and choose one of them for the wallpaper on their own computers. Kabhi time mile to you should seriously consider sending them to the companies that make calendars with devotional images; ghar ghar mein pramaanit hogi Swati's siggie supremacy 🥳 The two that really made me stand up in amazement were the full-Ramayan-in-one-poster because of the countless pics you managed to blend - that's gotta be a record-breaker for that category - and the thought behind it, simply divine... and the other was this one: http://i.imgur.com/35uNi.jpg
The coloring, pics, and everything about it just gives that warmth and comfort that devotional pics/serials/thoughts are MEANT for. I love it so much 😍
That update also had these two sigs which blew me away... the softness of the first one was so pretty, definitely I am excited to see more in that style whenever you get time to grace us with an update again, and I'm gonna use the 2nd one for sure:

Then your big Saawariya update... making people look better than they are is something you have done before also but with this update you made a movie look better than it was!!! Each and every one of them is so beautifully blended and colored... I think this one has to be my fav: http://i.imgur.com/pOkwT.jpg
Uske baad the most recent one, last one we'll get for a while 😭 LOVED all the icons to bits, especially mytho ones... and in sigs this Maaneet one was really too cute: http://i.imgur.com/vYXlT.jpg
The soft look you gave it is so pretty!!!
So now that I am caught up, the goodbye-for-now message:

Sooo was thinking how to reply this all week, even when I was at work and was supposed to be auditing stuff for the government my mind was instead wondering "Swati se aisa kya kahun ki woh chali na jaaye?" Was gonna do a very teary post with the best possible written version of KKHH's little sardaar when he tell's Kajol "tusi na jaao" 😭 But then I was like, that is so wrong. We met as mytho buddies, aur aisa karungi to saabit ho jaayega ki mythos se kuch bhi nahin seekha 😆 So I decided against it. I am SO SO SO proud of your achievement, getting into an M.Tech program is a HUGE deal that only major geniuses can list on their bio and it's such a matter of joy that my buddy is one of those smarties 🤗 Gogaji ko Swati the Smarty naam bulaana padega, ab toh 😆 I wish you all the very best in this phase and the bright future that I know it will lead to - even though I know that a person who is so devout that she even named her art gallery "Shri Ram Creations" does not need my "good luck", she already has bigger blessings in hand from above. Hopefully this post at least partially makes up for all the time we've missed each other since my birthday because of my crazy busy summer, and I am even more hopeful that it forces you to give me darshan sooner than you had planned 😆 Until then, I will just keep wishing you well and fondly remember all the fun we've had - our hilarious PM convos about 90s movies, that beautiful "Bole Ram, aaja Ram" bhajan of Jagjit sing that you shared and made me obsessed with for a week, the memorable comments you gave me whenever I made a sig for you (like the Pushp Vatika and Vivaah ones) even though we both know you could make something 10 times better without trying, the heavenly requests you made me (esp. RS SK ones) for which I refuse to request sigs with those same pics from anyone else because I know once you've made sigs on them, that's all I need... the FC and CC days... and all in all the blessing of having met you and become your friend. With lots of love and good wishes 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
