Wow -- the baton has been passed inexplicably to me! Alrighty, then...

This week's challenge: Super-Ego versus Id. For those of you who need a refresher on Freudian psychology:

The super-ego acts as the conscience, maintaining our sense of morality and proscription from taboos.

The id is responsible for our basic drives such as food, sex, and aggressive impulses. It is amoral and egocentric, ruled by the pleasure-pain principle; it is without a sense of time, completely illogical, primarily sexual, infantile in its emotional development, and will not take "no" for an answer. It is regarded as the reservoir of the libido or "love energy".

So, create a palette that represents the Super-Ego, or one that represents the Id, or one that represents the struggle between them in your psyche.

Can I just ask how I can embed the palatte? And how can you make the lines different widths... Sorry, I'm a new kid here :)

To embed the palette, copy and paste the link of "share this palette badge" in the "about this palette" box. To do the various widths, use COPASO when you create the palette. You'll see arrows where you can adjust to your heart's content. :)

it's kindasorta a pun... (that is, that the id is not really mind-based but rather impulse-based)

[btw sorry, wasn't aware that you could only post one palette. you can ignore this one ;-) ]

Thank you Caff =]

Anyhoo, here's my submission =]



Not sure if I'm meant to explain it... if not, well, just ignore this =]

Black-Our physical needs and desires
Pink- The Feminine
Grey- Mix of Black and white, a happy medium
Blue-The Masculine
White- Our conscience, our thoughts, our reasoning.

Black is bigger, as typically our physical desires overcome our reasoning and thoughts.

so, sorry for the ignorance, but who chooses the next winner? me, or one of the group's bigwigs?

Will there be a challenge for this week or are you just holding this one over? :-)
