How many places do graphic designers have to make their typography work with 4 writing systems combined into one written language? and have a sustainable creative economy?

Hello cunts, making a youtube channel so that i can practice editing, trying to tie down the intro for said channel and animated a short gif of pot of greed smiling, did some really minor changes and wanted to know if you guys think that i might get my ass cease and desisted

tried to make a few alts for the basic shape of the pot, but this one speaks to me for some reason ( the original designer did a banger of a job )

This is the little animation in question

idk but this is dope good luck

1. They don’t give a fuck unless your channel blows up 2. Just design a different shaped pot with a different face so you don’t get demonetized if your channel blows up

It's ugly. It's the ugliest shit you could possibly make.
99% of homophobia is due to this abomination. If the gay flag were cool, if the colors actually complemented each other, if it had some cool lesbian animal symbolism or something like that people would LOVE the gays.
I try to tell this to people but they're in denial

it's like claiming the american flag to be a representation of fighting illegal wars because of oil interests.
not wrong in todays context, but far from the graphical intention, and thus a totally different discussion to have.

You are a mentally ill retard, because you speak like one. I work in this profession and make very good money as well as respect of my peers.
Do you work in design for a living? Do ya punk?

Your deeper meaning analysis is retarded and irrelevant. You can ascribe any meaning you want for yourself, what matters is what it comes off as to the viewers and public.
Also, no one cares for your stupid political ideology, has nothing to do with the topic at hand.

abortion isnt murder tho. murder by definition is the intent to kill with malice. for a significant portion of a fetus's being, it is just a blob of cells, hard to call that a conscious individual. if you want to fight for children, fight for healthcare, daycare, maybe UBI.

if you think about it, abortion is love of self. also the cover makes no fucking sense.

I can't seem to find a stupid questions thread so new thread it is.
I'm a /co/rtoonist and I'm trying to make a comic page template like pic related but with custom measures. On inkscape I managed to draw a rectangle with the specific measures and managed to center it, so I have the safe area but I have no idea how to do the little lines that mark the thirds and fourths.
I assume I should split the faces of the rectangle into individual lines but then what do I use to find the center, thirds etc?
Is this even the right approach for such thing? is there a better way to undertake this?
>>
Can you just use the pen tool to create lines where you want them.
>>
>>462843
>is there a better way to undertake this?
I did the same a while ago, I tried using Inkscape for a project and after a couple hours I gave up and went back to Adobe™, Illustrator/Photoshop/InDesign are just reliable and you save yourself headaches and time by working faster and finding tutorials instantly, also if you're making a comic the last thing you want to do is the measures, here's a great description of the process two guys used in the comic watchmen:

OP here, so I powered through it and found the places for the guidelines using the technique described here https://web.archive.org/web/20210612234747/https://andreasaronsson.com/guides/perspective-drawing/divide-into-equal-parts/
I expected to there be something more sophisticated to archive the same results with less work plus I'm not sure how precises is the work I did.
What do you guys think?

>>462845
Yes.
>>462847
I just prefer FOSS software and Watchmen is an example of why these types of guidelines are so important since watchmen sticks to a 3 x 3 grid for all its pages.

Good solution, but you’re right there should be an easier way. Can you set guides in your version of Inkscape? It should let you put in the exact location and set a color and label, a lot less work.
>>
>>463387
I'm sure it can but from what I can see it'll require me to do math to find the X and Y where the line should go.

Where and how can I find genuine examples? Or do I have to just take pictures or take actual print ads?

Technical Surveillance I guess. Parapolitical. A lot of graphic design is making stuff up and everyone agrees with you and lets you do whatever with zero feedback beyond "wow looks so good yum yum"

was just doodling in paint
made some dudes with triangle heads cause it looked funny

but the longer i stared at it the more it started to… pulse?

like the lines were breathing
colours started looking wrong, like they were glowing from the inside

i minimised it and swear i still saw the shapes behind my eyelids

reopened it and the triangles looked different

anyway here’s the “art”
idk if i made a meme or opened a portal
