I notice some headstocks are pretty unique to different brands such as the Dean’s Chalice like shape, Schecter’s spear point like shape, or the Ibanez’s in line like shape. If so can I get the real names?

Gibson’s is called the "open book" headstock.

Their popular everyone seems to have one.

Silly Bandz.
My friend has this bear one.
At my school, they’ve become a really big distraction so they banned them. People were sling shotting them at other people, and some people had their’s stolen.
You can get them from Walmart, some Claire’s stores, Hot Topic, & so on(:

I guess the colors are just my optic nervous system being interrupted, but why the weird looking shapes?

If you press on your eyeballs like that, you can end up sort of moving/pushing on your optic nerve or mechanically triggering the cells in your retina. Nerves tend to malfunction when you squish them, so what you see is just how your brain happens to interpret the scrambled signals it receives (it’s essentially trying to process "brain static" that doesn’t really mean anything). It’s kind of like what happens when your arm or leg "falls asleep" after you’ve been sitting on it the wrong way; the disrupted nerve sends some scrambled signals, which gets interpreted as the tingling, pins-and-needles type feeling, except it’s with visual signals instead of touch or pain signals.

I don’t know all of them.
But I know they come in all animals and are sold separately depending on the type.
(Wild, marine, etc…)
They also have shapes like Suns and Moons and fruits.
And there are cars which I have.

They come in all colors, as well as glow in the dark and tie dye

I’ve tried to teach her the other shapes but she doesn’t quite get it. I also teach her colors but she doesn’t really know them either. Every now and then she’ll get one right. We have a book called The Color Kittens that she loves but I don’t think she actually knows which colors are which. I think she is just memorizing it.

She sounds like my daughter. Don’t worry, she’ll pick it up as long as you keep teaching her. My daughter knows the moon, star, circle and square. She gets her colors right occasionally.

Help please.

If they are brushes, make sure you extract them to that file (C drive>program files>adobe>photoshop>presets>brushes>photoshop only) and then in photoshop, when you go to select your brush type, there’s a little arrow. Click that and click ‘load brushes’ and select the brushes you just downloaded.

Should I use a 13×9 inch pan? Do I reduce the oven temperature or baking time? Any other suggestions?

Thanks!

Happy Halloween!

Use any sheet pan recipe in your cookbook and then use the cookie cutters as stencils. Cut around them with a long-bladed knife for nice, high cakes. Or, if you’d rather serve flatter cakes, then use your favorite sheet pan recipe in a larger pan than the recipe calls for and start checking for doneness with a toothpick after the surface starts to look dry.

I refuse to spend a ton of money on something I know I can do myself lol. BUT, I’m not sure how to cut a fresh whole pineapple so that I can use cookie cutters to make heart shapes. Does anyone know how the edible arrangements people do that? Or have an idea of a way that would work? Thanks!

Cut the top and bottom off to sit flat. Then cut the outer layer off in triangular fashion. Cut slivers to the thickness of your cutter staying away from the center. You can always use your cutter as a template and fine tune the cuts with your knife.
