Basic color chart made using color sliders
Very pwetty.
>>460864For me Basic colorsare>AchromaticBlack, White, Gray>PrimaryRed, Blue, Yellow>SecondaryOrange, Green, PurpleGold, is darker yellowBrown is darker orange
>>460864wrong...
>>460864I prefer a slightly more muted yellow, green, and blue. Purple should also have a little more blue in it too. I like your colors though and I like chocolate and cigarettes too and I like mario and sonic
Not sure if this is the right board to ask but how does logos & symbols get professionally printed with such precision on plastic like in pic? What’s this called and how do I do this?
>>462836It could be tampography.
>>462836They use a shrink ray cannon its actually built really big then shrunk down onto it.
when will they finally delete this dead board and put us out of our miseries?
>>462938why would/should they? distinguishing between visual expression that is illustrative/artistic/figurative in nature and such that is graphic/design/corporate makes a lot of sense, even when there are natural overlaps. some topics just don't fit /ic well and vice versa. I doubt many people on that board make noteworthy money from their drawings, so it can't be the lack of employed anons that makes you say so. also /ic is a hellhole of a children's playground, which kinda protects this less popular second art-related board from a few annoyances.
>>462938but you can make an entire audience full of Ai, saaar!https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=OHQRo3Uz_VQ

Your thoughts on this
>>462351so we're back to an 'edgier' windows vista?
>>462351I like them, they are very Good ! They would be a very good change for the Windows!
>>462351It reminds me of these gel 3D sticker things that stained my desk.Also reminds me of old Apple mac candy-phase.
>>462414People are REALLY trying to bring back translucent/see through shit again and it's kinda working

Does anyone happen to know what font this is? None of the font finders told me. I was hoping the weird zero and "O" could identify it.
Bump

>>462934I guess(?)

>>462934top right one
>>463111Top left, idiotBottom right is racist
how would I edit this to have a realistic looking crack in it? I'm trying to troll my son
Put a real crack in it, and then lecture your son about how it's not okay to play with knives.
>>461916
>>461916Just tell him it dropped on the concrete floor and tip chipped off.
>>461916Chipped it, more realistic than a crack / metal fatigue and is just as bad for knife guys.
>>463088Not OP, not even a knife guy, but seeing this pic made me feel sickWell done anon
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.
>>462803Wiz dancing cutout as compensation
if you can't use words without feeling selfconscious about some random bsky shitters i think that's a you problem...though cutout is a better word for what it describes anyway
>>462805yes, let your inner sexuality shine through!
It’s time to redo my portfolio and I’m looking for some inspiration. I’m a usability/product designer, but I’ll take any ideas. What are your favorite portfolios? Or share yours if you dare.
Is it retarded to use fountain pens?
I like ink
>>460543Many people will recommend Chinese brands such as Jinhao. But, I would suggest either the Pilot Metropolitan or the Kakuno (they have faces). The Pilot pens are rather inexpensive and write smooth.
>>460180It's frustrating. Almost nobody uses them IRL and the two fountain pen forums and the subreddit have a demographic that usually angers me. I think the poster above is right that this "hobby" draws a higher-than-normal anxiety enthusiasts. >>462736The most annoying thing about fountain pens is that many dry out, whether within days or weeks or months. Therefore my primary suggestion is to get one that does not do this. To achieve this, get a screw-off style cap instead of a snap on/off cap (the snap mechanism requires the cap has tiny holes in it, to prevent a vacuum that would pull ink out). The best company for this is Platinum because they have a "Slip and Seal" technology that is known to keep the nib wet, even when stored unused for months. As a beginner I would suggest buying two Platinum Preppys, in in a fine and one in a medium. This should get you an idea of what it's all about with a cheap, reliable pen that is not going to annoy you. And they come with a little bit of ink.To upgrade this order slightly, get one or two converters to go with the preppy and some ink samples that appeal to you. Much of the joy in fountain pens is in playing with different ink colors, and converters allow you to swap colors with just a bit of cleanup in between.
>>462737are the noodlers inks in some way special or good? I like their designs but never tried the product itself
>>454720It's cool if you're a big fucking deal lawyer or CEO signing shit constantly. Otherwise, you just look like a weirdo. What are you people even writing with pens besides your signature and a date?
sorry, but it's true
>>463062Agreed.It's a more important skillset than ever and it's never been a more transferable skill from one job to another.But, the way schools teach it, as though being able to create a mediocre logo in 80 hours and having intermediate skills in InDesign/Illustrator is going to lead to a decent full time job, let alone a career has been kind of dead for a while. Definitely dead now.On reddit, you'll see whiny students/amateurs digging their heals in, arguing they shouldn't be expected to know HTML, or touch video editing, etc. Meanwhile every zoomer's learning this stuff so they can do YouTube or be a "creator". It was entitled and foolish fifteen years ago when designers would refuse to branch out of print design. Even at the time (I was a student then) peers and I would agree, the people trying to do only print are going to get rugged. Today, it's beyond absurd for someone to think they won't need to be versatile and learn every medium they can, and adjust to new tools regularly.Even prior to AI, GD seemed to me like a field you start out in, but graduate to other things by your late 20's. Whether it's video, web dev, etc. The GD skills carry over and give you a leg up in these, especially if you're going to create your own business one day. But GD in itself is like the digital version of a construction laborer.Now on the topic of AI: It's scaring a lot of people, but designers skilled in the adobe suite are in the perfect situation to take advantage of it if they get over their fears and dive into it. AI does amazing shit, while getting details wrong. They're the ones capable of editing those details. It also knocks out a huge amount of grunt work and makes "creative block" a thing of the past. Smart designers should be viewing AI as a gift from god. They've just been handed their own studio, basically. Image gen, is basically like having your own team of lower level designers working for you. Not to mention the learning abilities with it.
>>463070Questionable schools blowing smoke up clueless people's asses is a separate issue that existed even when commercial art as a standalone career was a fairly easy and profitable path to take with a seemingly endless supply of work to go around.Just like countless other trade school models that kind of thing exploded after WW2 with the GI Bill and continued with similar civilian educational loan programs long past a time when more workers were needed, and since the real goal of many operators was getting at that money and not placing people in jobs, much of the curriculum didn't keep up with the needs and trends in the industries that those schools ostensibly served.School has its place but just getting a certificate and expecting commercial design work to be there for the taking is the laziest, least creative and least adaptive approach to entering a field that is ALL about creativity and adaptation and hustling.Even to work as a teacher at art school, having completed art school doesn't necessarily mean crap.>“Art school for everyone everywhere” read one FAS ad, which ran in the back of magazines such as TV Guide and Life. For $200, or GI benefits, the student received large binders containing 24 lessons. >Charles Reid, who joined FAS in 1963 as its youngest instructor, noted that with the early lessons, students received a stock letter response according to their skill level...Uniquely, Reid started with FAS as a 15-year-old student, when his father bought him the course. He only completed eight of the original lessons, then abandoned the course, citing its difficulty.https://connecticuthistory.org/instruction-by-mail-the-famous-artists-school/

>>463054then why are there graphic designers making a lot of money doing, you know, graphic design?
>>463077....badly, it seems
what's the name of this design? how does one achieve the composition and the colors in illustrator? is it even in illustrator since it's made in early 1900s.
>>459309Superman with the black hairdye
>>459357>>459369Looks great, that's exactly what hair does. Gotta ask, would you say white people are bage ("beige") like bagels?>>459402>>459451Germany is in NATO/Europe nowadays
mm
>>459301Cant you see the colours and composition looking at it?
>>463058no
I'd like to use it for booklets. Does it render text correctly? What are its main issues in this application?
>>462995It's """"""""free""""""""" because they make more money with your data than selling it to you. You can look that shit up, it's insane how many connections the application has running at all times.
>>463003show it
>>462615There's no reason to use memescape and Gimp now that affinity is free.Either use ps or affinity.
>>462616I remember when indesign could only do one page at a time and you had to buy an external plug-in to render tables, and nobody had written one yet.It got popular because of cultists. Nothing more.
>>462615What exactly do you want to create?A poster or something with multiple pages?What should the final product be? Should it remain digital or be exported for print as PDF X-3?Inkscape is a vector program, so it should output all fonts as vectors for your final format.Also this >>463009
