>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.zipalso check out your local torrent site or the font-share thread.Remember to share and not just take.

>>447921Ty my friend, whenever I’m not using procreate I tend to gravitate towards to colored pencils

I have been drawing my comics and manga for some time now, DREAMLANDS: Lives and Epics. Dark fantasy series
>>454235Cool.
Is it even possible to incorporate rainbows into your designs in 2024 without it being a political reference?
>>454241>go outside>see gay flags and products everywhere>can get arrested if you are anti gay peopleNow what? Faggot>>454242Nike supports black people burning and looting. Thanks, retard.>certain ideas or things.Yes, everything is ZOG and woke now.
>>454250dafuq? what are you getting arrested for???????again: what is the point of this discussion? there is a well known symbolism and people are recognizing it. THAT IS ALWAYS THE CASE. YOU CANNOT MAKE SOMETHING BLACK AND WHITE AND RED WITHOUT THE RISK OF LOOKING LIKE DRITTES REICH GERMANY.just shut your stupid, non-reflective mouth, honestly. or give us a good reason for why this discussion is interesting or even relevant.
>>454253>what is the point of this discussion?As with most right-wingers, whining and endless victimization for attention, it's despicable and useless.
yeah, I see it all of the time. just because you have culture war internet brain rot doesn't mean that everyone does. 99% of people don't give a fuck about any of that.
Why do /pol/fags keep coming here and shitting this board up? Or is this just the same retard from the other /pol/ thread that was here for a bit?
Is there an easy way to replicate the image degredation from repeatedly copying/faxing a document? Ideally this would be for PDF files, but any format would be better than nothing.
>>453895>>453902If this was a viable option, don't you think it would be the first thing I thought of? Just the fact that I'm asking the question should tell you I'm looking for another way, But I'll b4 more specific:I am looking for a way to do this digitally.
bump
just find some samples and work with them, copying themwhat skils do you have?
>>453902>downsizing would actually help you achieve degradation>i guess i'm not really understanding what the issue isNo shit, it works in in exactly the opposite way; reducing the size of an image is how line art and other images are cleaned up and an integral part of the process of creating art for print media back in the day.Easiest way to imitate copy/fax machine degradation digitally is to mess with light values, contrast, exposure, etc , since most photocopying artifacts and distortions are the result of the actual photographic part of the process and strong light was what allowed them to reject all but text and other deliberate markings....every generation was slightly overexposed and the contrast boosted so details like fine lines, dots and sharp corners would gradually melt away.At the same time, if you adjusted the machine darker to pickup those details any small dark areas, erased pencil lines and even the shadows of paper texture would get reproduced, and subsequent attempts to lighten them back out by re- copying with higher contrast wouldn't get all of them, leaving characteristic splotchiness.
each time the ink prints it’s not a digital process nor is the scanning it’s analog to digital in the scan and digital to analog in the printing so you would find the physics of the scanning process then simulate it and same for the printing, simulate the analog printingwith those 2 filters it’s an iterative process for each and the number of iterations increases the effect of scanning then printing, taking the output and repeating the process That’s how you would make an accurate fx or plugin or whatever but you can just jank it using photoshit
Does anyone have a crack for the adobe softwares? Out of college now and I really don't have the spare money to pay for the softwares I need. I need Illustrator, Photoshop, Aftereffects, Indesign, and a couple others.
>>454217Yeah man just pay $60 to cancel your plan
>>454229Stop being poor.
>>441058Go to the r/piracy reddit, visit the megathread, go from there.You'll find anything you want.
>>454230stfu you fucking rich boy
>>453492look up gen p on reddit and follow all of their directions very closely.
Is there a set of rules to generate Nine-Fold Script characters from Small Seal Script characters?Or is it completely up to the artist?
Bump even though I don't know what this means, do I need to research this?
What are you working on, /gd/?
>>454225why do you have a room just for a bath and why is it as big as your garage?
>>454225Won't people smell shit in the bathroom from your kitchen.
I didn't want to create a thread for this, but can anyone tell me which text alignment is better for readability purposes or why am I too fucking dumb to know which one works best? (they both look weird to me to be honest, being a designer is tough)
>>454310OF COURSE I'd forget the godamn file
>>454311>being a designer is toughyou are so motherfucking stupid, wasting your and our time with half a centimeter of indentation!the text isn't even vertically aligned with the rose bars and still you are worrying about fucking 5 millimeters?!definitely the top one. now grow up and work for 10 minutes without asking for feedback, child.
Can you fix it? Show me what you got /gd/
for referencei'll post my spinoff later
Maybe this is one helpful aswell.
Standardise it and use the same bird holding a calendar icon.
>>453782What’s with this minimal color palette bullshit?
>noooo this icon needs to be a rembrandt level illustration even though it'll get absolutely decimated into a pile of ugly noise at the size i actually see icons at!!!!
the last "corporate" aesthetic with soul.
>>439551Takashi Murakami used a similar aesthetic with his “superflat” style.
>>450030The Neighborhood is literally, "Whites and blacks, living together!", the kind of social equality that his being a doctor was supposed to represent. I'd also point to the Fresh Prince remake, Empire, etc.
>>448816>>448838>>451494I like the style even with its cheapness association, but I'm also a little unnerved with the idea of calling it "comfy" when it's basically colorized art deco.
>>438898I’ll forever miss this
>>453430gem
I no longer know how to make money as a graphic designer Its all so hopeless

>>453800I haven't seen an ad for a graphic design job in literally a year where I live. the last job ad I saw I got that job and I've been looking for a new one ever since, nothing.
Hey anons, i have a selfish request. This is an exterior design of a house I plan to build. Without changing the proportions too much is there any way you could make it look more cool and aesthetic? Im not sure what but i feel like something is missing from it looking very cool, rich and futuristic.I hope this is the place to ask. Thanks in advance my NwordsNote: the big windows are North-west facing
>>454265>>454290see also this artdeco style
>>454290>>454265and also see this perfect example of the futuristic style you're probably hoping to incorporate.remember, the best artists steal.in short, my recommendation would be to add some sort of decorative rib or bar elements, ideally with some small 45 degree angle insets/offsets in them, connecting across the faces of your building. think modern luxury yacht fascia. any "structural looking" member that looks NOT like a standard apartment building will be good - 3 strong looking cascading 45 degree "struts" descending across the balconies, anything like that.
>>454292>>454291>>454290Thanks bro ill see if i can incorporate some of that. Ill still need to swing that by my architect since it has to be structurally sound
>>454293op has an architect!!
>>454292nice gas station pumps
I'm from the US and am on vacation in Europe and I bought this pate in the store earlier. I really dig the simplicity and color of the design.
>>453234the supermarket has unified the design on all their drugstore stuff, I like the triangles of color
Saw this Kleenex box in an old movie and thought it looked kinda cool.

The watercolor theme from Whistler is where Microsoft's UI aesthetic peaked.
>>451542Like >>451571 said, 2 and 3 need to be swapped.Early Windows had brighter colors because the color palette was more limited on some PCs. The more pastel colors came with 98 and Me, when SVGA 24-bit color was the norm.
>>4515427 > XP > Vista > 95 > 10 > 11
>>451542win 7 classic had nice click sounds, didn't ship with dwm enabled and felt very snappyit was also simplistic and not overloaded with poorly functioning features, so it was better for workflow than 10/11obviously nothing beats macosx 10.6-10.7that was just and orgasmic beauty of ui/ux
>>454195This was true minimalism, succeeds at being visually appealing and not too distracting.Flatshitters today would never achieve doing something like this, as much as they try.
The #1 Reason i now hate this fucking JOB >I'm a recluse introvert i just want to sit in a dark room & make shit i don't want to become a faggot for a retarded audience

>>454114found the dumb ass cunt post!!!!!! yay! now fuck off
>>454112>i don't want to become a faggot for a retarded audienceWhy not? Consider it as baiting and trolling and say outrageous opionated opinions in public for free engagement.
