If you are using LinkedIn or a similar service to apply for jobs, you need to use all the tips and tricks for creating a "good" CV. Yes, all the white small text, keywords, text generated by AI, etc.

You need this because the first step is automated, then your resumé will land on a WHORE from the HR who does not have a fucking clue of what your role demands, and just then it will be forwarded to someone who understand a thing or two about what you will do. You need to create a resume that the machine and the dumbfuck HR WHORE will like.

artistic endeavors are not comfortable career paths. you have to be likeable, charismatic, sociable, but most importantly lucky.

its not impossible, because I've worked with many different companies and businesses of all sizes doing what i'd rather dub as "digital design" because graphic design is only 1 small aspect of what i really do. but i was also extremely lucky, and scored gigs in places most people don't know about because most people can't socialize through the noise.

regardless, it is not very profitable by itself and in order to be profitable you will either have to be a slave to someone else or be a slave to the game of advertising and networking and pretty much never resting until you get some big break. which really shouldn't be a problem if you love the craft enough, but if even a small part of you thinks "this might not be for me" then it probably isn't, because that's not a thought that enters peoples minds that are retarded enough to make it their life (me)

Hey /gd/

I have a question, if I produce images using illegal versions of Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign, do these images have any metadata that can be tracked to see if they were illegally produced?

and how do I remove such metadata, I tried googling this shit but it doesn't come up with any real answers on this topic

I'm just getting to the point of completing my 4th as well as 5th gd project for my portfolio and want to upload them all to Behance but also still not cause any problems for potential employers.

thanks

In photoshop, is there a "fill" mask?(pic shows what kind of fill I mean)
Opacity has it's own layer mask. That's great and all, but Fill does things that Opacity can't. I would like to affect the layer in a similar way as Opacity, but affecting Fill instead. I suppose it doesn't have to be a mask. Even though a mask would be perfect for my use case. I would like any insight on how to affect Fill on a more complex level than merely sliding the bar up and down. I want different parts of the layer to have different levels of fill.

Does anyone want to design merch for Duolicious? I'll shill your designs and give you 100% of the profits for the first few months.

I know I could use AI, or Fiverr, or Dribbble, or other stuff like that for designs. But all the AI tools I've tried seem hesitant to emulate even the innocuous facets of Twitch culture, let alone 4chan. And I doubt it'll make designs that work well for embroidery, badges, and anything which isn't a direct-to-garment print. Fiverr's work quality is trash and no one replies on Dribbble.

If you're interested, could you post ITT and/or email your portfolio to admin@duolicious.app?

If the purpose of your garments is to garner publicity, you need it to be beautiful, otherwise only cringelords wear memes in public. Except for this one, they're all mostly ugly and this one doesn't even have a readable "call to action" anywhere on it. If you want to generate money from it, then there you should follow different paths—that is the product itself. But as it is designed right now, no heteronormative person will touch it. This leaves you with a bunch of mentally ill women and a plethora of desperate weebs.

Did you completely miss the part about it being a 4Chan -centric dating app?

Quoting OP:
>/a/ and /v/ are the boards which use Duolicious the most. Anime, manga, and gaming are among the most popular interests users have. "Chronically online" users are targeted in Duolicious' app store listings.

The feedback in the Know Your Meme entry makes clear that the user base is exactly the people you are suggesting he try not to appeal to (pic related).

Once again, someone on /gd/ offering commercial art advice that betrays an almost complete lack of even the most basic marketing awareness like "know your audience".

How did I miss anything, since I precisely described your demographic in one line? Or do you actually believe that autists would not prefer a good looking product over what you have now? It seems that you became overly defensive when several people pointed out the glaring obvious. But let me ask you this: why are you trying to market it like a generic sales machine? Why are you applying traditional marketing tactics to a bunch of anti-social, anti-consumerists? Why did you try to shift gears from chan-culture to broad market in an attempt to bring in normies last summer? Was it not your intention to grow it beyond what it is now, i.e. a sausage fest? Why do you look for influencers to increase your audience when that is the opposite of what you claim to be—a closed ingroup of neurodivergents? It seems that you are the one who lacking any experience in managing and growing digital products by selling merch (lmao), and some don't have the name on it, as if someone can guess what brand it represents.

Oh, and by the way, congrats on spreading trans cancer even more.
>>
>>458441
Nta but you're delusional if you think those people are going to buy merch; they're already on Duolicious almost explicitly because they're too autistic for normal dating apps or they are attention-starved whores. The former will not wear them because they are already conscious of their appearance to begin with an wearing a shirt advertising a social reject dating platform will only be worse. The latter will not wear them unless they are exceptionally fashionable because they need IG validation. You're really confident for a retard.
>>
>>458443
I'm not the anon you replied to lol

>Why are you applying traditional marketing tactics to a bunch of anti-social, anti-consumerists?
I'm actually not picky about who buys the shirts or if the shirts serve to market Duolicious. I just need money to advertise to new users, and I don't want to sell subscriptions in the dating app itself because I feel a bit like I'm preying on users' loneliness.

>Why did you try to shift gears from chan-culture to broad market in an attempt to bring in normies last summer?
I get this a lot. About 200k thousand people signed up within a few weeks. It costs big dating apps about a dollar to acquire a user. So your belief is basically that some random anon on 4chan spent $200k to market a completely free dating app to racists on Twitter. Doesn't it seem more plausible that people just posted about Duolicious on the internet cuz "le heckin femcels"?

Graphic artists are more necessary than ever, but the tools and resources make it easier than ever.
The demand for the skill isn't disappearing, but the supply of decently skilled graphics people is bigger than ever.
It's turning more into a general labor position, except instead of being good with your hands and willing to exert yourself physically, you need to be good with computers and willing to exert yourself creatively.
It's this way more than ever, but it's been going this way for a very long time.
Most people who study and get a job in graphic design move onto other fields by the time they're 25. They'll retain and use their design skills, but the design skills are one discipline of many.

This is true and also depressing as fuck, I know so many graphic designers who can't draw or paint for shit, its insane that we created this world in which honest beauty and aesthetics are not only dead but actively discouraged in favor of some esoteric numbers-based wankery
If you're one the few people that actually grasp traditional mediums like drawing painting fairly well while also being proficient with digital programs I think you'll have no problem finding work but I'm afraid the damage to one's soul might be too much to bear for the average person
