>Can somebody photoshop X? Can somebody make me a logo?
All requests for photoshopping belong on /wsr/ - Worksafe Requests or /r/ - Adult Requests. /gd/ doesn't take requests or do free or even paid work sometimes. However, if you're new at something, asking "HOW can I X?" rather than "CAN YOU make X?" will give you better results.


>Can I post some of my work for critique?

There is usally a critique/What-Are-You-Working-On thread, and that is where work for critique go.

>Can somebody find [font]?

http://www.mediafire.com/download/027xjs3ujvyqxmd/Fonts.zip

also check out your local torrent site or the font-share thread.

Remember to share and not just take. Also remember that using liscensed fonts in commercial works is a bad idea.

if you have a basic understanding of webdesign and how to use CSS on divs it should be absolutely no problem. Which shape do you have an issue with?
>>
>>463329
I understand basics but for some reason the border and glow is not taking the same effect. I've even asked ai and it's cutting off the border glow. Should I keep messing with it?

I'd like to make the top right shape, which has three corners cut off, and the bottom left corner has a more cut shape in it.
>>
>>463330
Could you show your CSS and HTML? that way it would be easier to correct and show what's going wrong. Not sure what you mean by the glow being cut off.
>>
>>463330

It's been a while since I did anything in HTML/CSS, so it's rough shit. But it should work as a proof of concept on manually making a border for clip-path, which I used for the corners. Let me know if this has the same issue you were talking about, cause I still don't really know what exactly you meant.

Also, I'll admit it was much harder than I remember it being. Sorry for dismissing it as a trivial thing in my first post. Clip-path is a fucking awful property to work with...
>>
>>463333
It's alright I'm not exactly and expert at this. I returned to coding after a many years break and it has changed. I'll post my code when I get home but I just mean I want the container to have a border color, and a glowing border as well. I have this set on a rectangle but when adding clip path it cut the edges, so then I'm thinking how convoluted the code needs to be to show the border and glowing effects along the same shape. The property in css doesn't say glow it sets a border with a blur effect so it appears to be luminescent.

You don't have to buy it, it's exactly same program as community qcad, you can use that.
Onstott just adapted it for ease of use, aimed specifically at creativity and geometry, plus made a very good video teaching series on how to use it.

BTW there are some outrageously priced "Sacred Geometry" apps out there preying on the trend. Onstotts is actually the best one and the cheapest.

Learn adobe illustrator.
Esp rotate, transform, pathfinder (lesrn what every button here does)
Learn some math especially basic geometry, ratios.

Replicate the five youve posted here. Dont do them free hand, do them pixel perfect.

Row 2, column 1 will be easiest to start with.

Create circle
Duplicate it, put second circle straight under
Select both of them
Rotate 60 degrees and make a copy

>Try to find genuine examples of branding design for print ads like posters, flyers,etc on the web.

maybe he should go gets some then... and studying design will help him learn what to search for
>>
>>463298
I've gone further than that. I take print ads like flyers and brochures and hoard them into a reference collection I can use and photograph larger ads like posters.

The big problem is even this is not enough as I feel like I'm being limited in finding proper references.

I previously used to work for Heinz and used this as profile pick for a couple of years. I now work for P&G and would like a new wojak of the any of the following bottles to now use as my profile pic.

- Old Spice
- Head & Shoulders
- Native
- Dawn Dishsoap
- Crest Scope
- Tide

Finally gave in and now be calling my transparent PNG graphics as "cutout" because the transniggers can't stop making 2016 memes about their stupid ass culture. That fucking trans-parent joke gave me bubonic plague for how shit that joke was.

Appreciated that someone tried at least.

I did a basic flat modernization of the logo they have currently. Very uninspired and unpolished, but I saw the thread and got the itch to do this real quick. I might come back to do a real redesign when I get back to my real workstation.

Found it pretty hard to get other ideas than what they are currently using because I don't really understand what the company makes or how they make it.

True, only upside of Affinity is that you get 3in1 for free. Photoshop is still better than Affinity Photo.
