The Overlady's Christmas Helpers



Merry Christmas to all out there! I hope you all have a fantastic time!!

You know I said I'd been cooking all day, well here is the photo of some of what I cooked up! I expect it will probably all go within the next couple of days!

So to quote the Spirit Of Christmas Present.... COME IN AND KNOW ME BETTER, MAN!!!!

To Bring Down A King

To bring down a King, sacrifices have to be made....



Hey everyone I hope that your Christmas Eve is going splendidly! I won't be uploading anything tomorrow and maybe not boxing day just to give you a bit of advanced warning. I might be able to get something more to you today, but I'm about to get my apron on and start cooking. I might post a photo of just what I end up making just to add some festive cheer to this place of mine!

So until next time... MERRY CHRISTMAS!!



Thanks to Ambyr and Annebelle Raven-Hyde for their comments on the last cap :)

A Slight Problem..

After three hundred years, I'd call this a pretty good flaw the system could have experienced ;)


Sorry for not getting any caps to you this week. Its been pretty mental at work with the run up to Christmas and I just haven't been able to find enough time to work on anything. Throw in the cold that was killing not only my creativity but concentration this week and its made for one nasty ride! Still here's this one for you now and I have a new short story uploaded to the library at Rachel's Haven. If you want to read it, its called Gaia's Fingers.

Till later sweeties!

Sickness To Happiness


Sometimes getting sick is just what you need!

On The Hunt Again


Sometimes, you just can't escape your past....


Perhaps the plot for this one came out of the fact I'm working once more on my serial story, Web Of Darkness, which I'll be submitting for the next issue of the Haven Quarterly that will be coming out at the beginning of next year, or then maybe not, half the time I have no idea where ANY idea I work on comes from!!

Still, trying out all these ideas gets my brain the exercise it needs to keep coming up with new and hopefully better things, though with the way my brain feels right now, I get the feeling that it wants to kill me. Headaches and temperature fluctuations from a mild fever are NOT fun!



Thanks to Ambyr for her comments :) They really brightened up my day :)

Here To Stay

Decisions, decisions, decisions......

Not So Easy Now

Physical changes to your body can make even the easiest tasks seem like insurmountable challenges....



Yeah I know its another black and white caption, but I came across a bunch of images on the web that were perfect for captioning, but just happened to be in black and white. Ok so it makes me feel like I'm working on the set of The Third Man (a movie you all should see!), but hey between getting totally absorbed in the Hunger Games trilogy this week and having this god awful cold I've managed to pick up, these sort of images are just the sort I need to come up with a quick and easy plotline and all but flat packed caption kit.

The flatpack caption kit is available from all good Desire Outlet stores, a division of Overlady Industries.

Taking Pride In What You Do


I think its lucky she didn't insist on having her trademark inked on ;)

Behind The Mask


You just can't trust anyone in foreign places can you?


Thought I'd make a sort of follow on to the cap 'Unbelievable' I made a while back. I enjoyed writing that one and creating its universe and this image just reminded me of it when I uncovered it, so yeah, it all went together nicely!
So I hope you're all having a good December so far and are getting into the festive spirit. I certainly am getting into the spirits after I read through a Steampunk drinks book!
Sorry that I haven't got any captions up the last couple of days. I didn't have much free time during the day and I've come down with a pretty bad cold which is just sapping what energy I have left. Managed to write this one after three hours sleep last night so if its a bit weird, I'll blame it on that!
So till next time, chins up and get ready to use tinsel as a scarf!

The New Ruler - 1,000,000 Views And 400 Caps!


Bow before your mistress, The Overlady rules all!!!


That's right boys and girls!! We reached the target of one million views to this site! I love you all!!!! Its soo seriously awesome to see that number on my dashboard and its thanks to you lot coming along here to get there!

This is also the four hundredth original caption here so its a doubly awesome post!!


So to mark this, here are a few stats for you.......

The highest pageviews by month was April this year at 79,264. Its quite funny to look at the monthly all time stat list since I can mark every time I was away on a course or deployed by the number of pageviews taken that particular month. That's real life for you, what a bitch!

The highest number of views at a given time was 385 at 22:00 on the 19th of August. There might have been higher ones, but that is the highest I've managed to record since blogger doesn't track stats like that.

The top referring URL was World Of TG coming in at 95,508 with TGcomics coming in second with 30,820

The top referring site was once again World Of TG with 104,047 hits, but SP2000's blog took second place here with 32,607 and TGcomics sliding in just behind with 30,468. Big numbers all round!!

The United States had the most visitors to my little site with 594,928 recorded hits and my own United Kingdom coming in second with 90,830 and Germany in third place with 70,811. I'm sure I could make some dirty and generally tasteless jokes about this......

I think that's enough stats for now, but lets just say that I think you're all awesome for helping to make this site a success and you all get a golden sticker from me!! It has a smiley face on it ;)


Finally, thanks to Ambyr for her comments on the last couple of captions. Big hugs for you hun!

Always In The Mood

Neighbours, what can you do with them eh? Well magically turning them into just what you want is a pretty good solution!


The advantage of running your own site is that you can upload things that are totally out of date! This cap was planned for a Halloween release, but between work commitments and a loss of inspiration, this one has just been sitting around my desktop. Still I thought it needed finishing and getting uploaded instead of just being left like the half dozen christmas themed captions I started last year....


Thanks to Ambyr once again for her comment :)

Unbelievable


Always be careful where you go for a drink as you never can quite tell what may happen to you....


Wanted to try something a bit different to my normal plot lines and this was the sort of image that fitted nicely with that. Pretty happy with the plot for this caption, but what do you lot think? Want to see things like this more often? More explicit stuff? Or would you rather I kept to the sort of things I tend to create? Have your say today!!

Thanks to Ambyr for her comment on the last cap :)

Needs Of A Mansion

Everything has needs and sometimes fate drops in to make sure those needs get filled.



Sorry I haven't uploaded anything for a few days, been under the weather somewhat which has stopped me from being as creative as I want to be. Still at least I've managed to get some things done! I hope you all enjoy this caption :)

Perils Of Game Testing

Always read the fine print of a contract carefully else you never know what you're letting yourself in for.




Now, I don't like trying to sell things, advertise or anything like that, but this is an issue that matter to not only myself but all the girls who use the site as a means of support during what is a difficult stage in their lives.
I don't know how many of you are aware of this, but Rachel's Haven is having some financial difficulties at the moment and could use all the support it could get.
Rachel is one of the most fantastic people you are ever going to meet and it would be a utterly fantastic Christmas present for her if you could help out to keep the site going. If you can donate, please do and it doesn't matter how much you can give, anything would be super special of you.
If you do donate, please tell me because I'll reward you with your own special caption made solely for you. Since the Haven Quarterly's are also on offer for those who lend a hand, you'll be getting some very cool material as well as my undying gratitude.
So please, get out your super hero capes and help out if you can.


I now return you to your regularly scheduled programming.

Road To Power - Doing The Splits

Even the Overlady can be surprised by what the modern world can do to a person.


Jeez, I'm getting worse aren't I? I blame my real life getting busy again. Well that and that I was actually getting some sleep last week. Good for my health, bad for my creative work since I always tend to work on stuff at about one in the morning! And since Halo 4 and Black Ops 2 are out well a girl has to get in some gun time somewhere along the line!!

Anyhoo, thought it was about time I got back to this series and get something a little different up. I have several more going on the factory floor, but I'm beating the workers on those lines into submission so they are running a bit late. Downside to using minions for manual labour, sometimes you just have to get in there and give them a damn good thrashing!

More caps will be coming up this week, and in the weeks to come till Christmas hits since my workload will (hopefully) be going down some by the end of this month. I could always do with the money, but a couple of days off will be very nice indeed!


Thanks to Ambyr and Evie for their comments :) You girls rock :)

A Mistress' Pride

You should always take pride in your work, even if that work is something along these lines!


Sorry for not having updated this place in a while, my life has been getting a little hectic of late again. I'm still working on various things and I'll be bringing you them whenever I can.

On another note, I'm thinking of starting up a commissions thing for my writing. Would any of you lot like to see this? Place your views in the comments!


And don't forget, you can find my doodles online now over at DeviantArt. I'm not fantastic at drawing by any stretch, but I'm trying to slowly improve nevertheless! So go check me out at http://sci-fi-kara.deviantart.com where you can see both old and new work!

So until next time sweeties!

How Do You Get Used To This?

Well she might have trouble getting used to this, but at least its not an alien or demon baby. Those ones always cause trouble.

Sorry, the story kinda ran away with me on this one. I can't do much with the size of the text here without the size of the panel getting even bigger than it is already. Still, could be worse. I could have gone for a really long story on a really tall and thin sized panel!

Thanks to Anne Oni Mouse for her comment :)

A Voice From The Past

Why do the bad guys always manage to find the ones they are looking for? This cap fails to answer this is any way whatsoever!!!


Thanks to Kyra Hyde for her comment on the last cap :) I think you are rapidly becoming the top commentator here!

To Be A Gamer

Don't we all hate hackers and trolls? This is the sort of resolution I could happily live with!


Trying to get the caps coming up as fast as I can. My creativity is slowly building up once more after the sap of work and exams, so here's hoping I can keep bringing you things!

Road To Power - Trapped In Lace


Just because she's evil doesn't mean the Overlady ignores desires.


Sorry this cap has taken so long to come out. I've been super busy and struggling with a bout of idea failure. I blame trying to get a forensic science end of course test done. Well I finished and submitted that so its time to be creative! If my ideas can start flowing properly of course.....


Thanks to everyone who left me a birthday message. You lot know how to make a girl feel wanted :)

Tuesday 23 October 2012

Wait.. What?

Whoops sorry everyone! I know its been a while since I last uploaded a new caption (two weeks to be exact), but things have got kinda busy around Overlady Towers of late. Work has been getting weird and I've had to deal with a lot there, and I have had no free time for the last two weeks. Hell my last day off was my birthday!!!
While I'm trying to bring you new stuff, my inspiration has taken a hit, and work doesn't look like clearing up at all this week. Since I've also got an end of module test to get done by Thursday at the latest for my degree course, any free time and a lot of my work time will be devoted to that. However, I do have this weekend free so I'll be getting new stuff up then, spirits willing.
On the plus side for you lot, it does mean there are three 'Road To Power' caps heading your way, and I do have a couple of pieces almost done, so I hope to see you all in a couple of days.

By the way, you can also find me on Deviantart now and I'll add a few drawings there every now and then.

In the meantime, please don't mind the broken pipes. There is a high chance of steam leaks and monsters spawning....

Making Some Changes

Every well to do girl needs to land herself a wife with the means to take care of her


Thought I'd do something a bit different with this caption. The image is the sort that screams vintage and historical setting, but well I always preferred going the steampunk route anyway (I'm pretty much obsessed with that stuff as it is!), but I wanted to do something a little unexpected so blending it with the sci fi setting to start with just seemed like a good idea. What do you think?

Sorry if the text is a little hard to read. Its always a trade off between a fully fleshed out story and the size of a caption panel. Real pain that.

Anyhoo, its my birthday tomorrow so I don't know if I'll be uploading any captions. If I do, well its a present from me to you lot, and if I don't well you'll get some more from me on Thursday!

Road To Power - The First Victim

With her power growing, the Overlady begins her march to domination.....


This is the first in the special series of captions leading up to the million mark, and I'll be bringing you the next one very soon since the next waypoint is coming up quick!

Ok so I know I said I'd bring this to you yesterday (as it is now for me) but well after heading up to my room to work on not only this but a few other things, i fell asleep and didn't wake up till gone midnight. I blame it on it being a long and horrible (weather wise) day!!

If there is anything in particular you'd like to see from this series, please leave a comment :)

Until next time!!

Finding Fresh Blood

When the economy is in shambles, finding recruits is always easy, no matter what you might be looking for people for....


This was kind of a fun one to write, but then I always did like creating weird worlds and locations, waaaay more fun to create than keeping things in the modern world and with far more chance to do what I want with things. Sci-fi for the win!

Anyways, I'll be bringing you the first of the special captions later today, so add it to your diary!

Thanks to Kyra Hyde for her comment :)

Back In The Field

You just can't trust the brass. Especially when it comes to clothing decisions.


See I said I'd been getting new content to you! When I found this image it just called out for a caption and I hope the story I built for it worked. By the way, the SVS is a special forces unit I came up with for the serial story I'm writing for the Haven Quarterly. A sci-fi murder mystery that involves better detective work and more gunplay than an episode of CSI! Well I could just about write anything and it would have better due process than that pile of dross! You can't get a conviction if you break every rule in the book to get a bad guy. Most of the officers in the show would have been locked up first before any of their murderers.

Anyways, I hope you like this cap and keep watching for more new media. I'll be started the reward drive as soon as the views reach the next 100 k mark, which isn't all that far away now.

Updates

Hey there boys, girls, inbetweens and whatevers! Just thought I'd give you a quick update with things so it at least seems that I'm working on this blog.
Real life has ben hectic for me for the last few days what with work and more work, and it has been sapping my creativity a lot. Having a headache all day yesterday and a total brain fuzz the night before did the same, just with added pain and general confusion about things. Great huh?
Anyways, despite not having much time off for the rest of the week I'm trying to get some stuff created and I have managed to get some stuff done already today and hope to get more done. I'll upload some when I'm happy with the amount of content I have backed up and well, I hope you will all enjoy what I bring you!
I'm also working on a brand new story, set in a friends universe. Once its finished I'll be uploading it to the library section of Rachel's Haven for you all to read. Its already at nearly ten thousand words and I'm not even half way done with it. In fact I haven't even started the transformation section either!!
Also the site is approaching one million views! That is fantastic and I hardly expected this place to end up being so popular! Now until we reach one million, I'll be making a special caption for each 5,000 or 10,000 views the site receieves. They'll all be on a theme so to follow the story, you'll just have to keep watching and visiting the site! I do hope everyone will keep visiting as I do love making these captions.

Anyhoo, until next time TTFN!!



Thanks to Ambyr and Kyra Hyde for their comments on the recent captions :)

Apoca-what?

Just because the world is supposed to end doesn't mean it won't continue afterwards.


Just wanted to do a slightly silly apocalypse caption, yet I could only come up with one title. Shows what sleep deprivation can do for you!!

Novus Universitas Lustus Amo Vetus or New World Just Like The Old

Some things never change....


Sorry if my latin sucks! I had to use an internet translation tool to make the title for this one, and well who knows with those things!
I had a bit of trouble working on the story for this one and I'm not sure if I'm happy with the end product, but well, I hate having caps lying around on my desktop cluttering things up.

Thanks to Kyra Hyde for her comment :)

Checking The Handiwork

How To Attract Trade

Still Doing What Needs To Be Done

Sometimes you just have to knuckle down and get on with the job.


One of the sort of caps I make just to try and clear down my stock of images. Of course it doesn't always work out that way, but at least it means one less image to be cleared at a later date!! You can only delete so many after all....

Well things are getting a little bit crazy once again for me, although this time its mainly personal rather than work related. Its getting enough that it makes my creativity take a backstep which is really not what I want at all. But I'm not going to go on about it here, this is a place to relax for me as much as it is a place to work for!! So anyway, I hope you all enjoy this cap and please keep checking for new material. It might not come everyday, but you never know what I might bring you, so till next time.

Thanks to Kyra Hyde for her comment :)

Better Hurry Up


No matter what you do, someone will always make you pay the price for it....


Decided to make a somewhat darker cap today, hope you don't mind. It did start off as being more light hearted, but as I wrote it, the darker side just came out by itself. That's the downside to my style of writing really. I never know just what I'm going to end up with until my fingers stop hitting the keys! Vague notions yes, but they always end up becoming something much different as I go on.

So anyway, I hope you like this one and we'll see what the madness in my mind can come up with for the next piece!

Thanks to BorisLugosi and Kyra Hyde for their comments on the last cap :)

Red Means....


Be careful where you go for a walk....



Sorry I haven't got anything uploaded over the last couple of days. Its been kinda hectic for me and I've struggled to find the right kind of inspiration for captions. Still its the weekend and I have a couple of days off from work so I should be able to get some new pieces up. Well hopefully!

Playing For The Other Team

The Overlady continues her march to world domination, and her army is steadily growing. Would you dare stand in her way?
