Here's my ACTUALLY redesigned flag.
To begin with, the aspect ratio was bad. Adjusted to 2:1.
The blue square did not line up with the original aspect ratio. Adjusted to fit neatly into the top left quarter of the picture.
The odd number of red lines on the picture made the blue square no longer fit flushly with the lines. Adjusted the number of red lines to 12.
The stars were white, but everyone knows stars are yellow. Adjusted to the color yellow.
The stars did not take up the entirety of the blue square. Adjusted to make more efficient use of the space.
The original blue and red colors had poor contrast. Adjusted saturation for greater readability.
This current flag is more immediately identifiable and much more visible and readable in lower light and/or from farther away.

Looks great, maybe move the text slightly down though. You could also swap text colours (so 'SERBS' is yellow). I dunno, just pulling shit out my ass

its pretty cool, looks great as icons on high res displays that are so common in offices now (seriously 1080p is the new 720p it seems).
i think artistically its awesome, but aesthetically, it does remind me of ai gen art. its tacky in the same way that a tesla with rgb lights all over it is tacky. but i have to admit the artistry for these is pretty nice. this is better than flat design because at least it commits to something, even if what its committing to is looking like an annoying "web 3.0" icon set.

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.

Just acid design. I can't stand anyone calling it 'brutalism' anymore. I spent the 2023 studying references on this exact style, thinking I was late on it because it was already been named.
Never would guess it would be posted on /gd/ years later and redditfags would be spamming it in r/GraphicDesign.
Shit, I might start publishing my ref studies from now on.

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.
