how do you figure out how to pair one font with another? are there resources for learning this kind of art or is it just something you feel intuitively?

I am obsessed with Roman Britain recently, and started to wonder what a flag of that nation might look like (just for shits and gigs), but as a creatively bankrupt person i've just about reached my limit...

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

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

Complete and total noob here. I'm trying to make an image with the phrase "Excuse me, who are you?" on three different lines, and the words "I AM" hidden in the negative space between the lines, so that the text could be read as either "Excuse me, who are you?" or "I AM who I AM". As you can see, it just looks like a jumbled mess. Either it's illegible, or the words "I AM" are completely invisible. The two "I AM"s are also not aligned, which is kind of a bummer. The fact that the I is a single straight line makes this really difficult.
I also tried putting all the text on a single line, instead of three separate lines, but that didn't really work. For this type of "negative space" text to be legible, each letter has to be the the opposite of the previous letter, but since I want all three letters in "I AM" to be invisible, that's not really an option.
Any advice here?

Op's words cut and pasted-

>the words "I AM" hidden in the negative space between the lines

>hidden in the negative space

NOT

>negative spaces between the letters form the secondary text

The darker gray of course IS the negative space, and the "I AM" text is placed there with minimal contrast that obscures it between the other lines so the graphic EXACTLY follows the OPs parameters-

>the words "I AM" hidden in the negative space between the lines

Yet when someone explains *why* that's happening and suggests other approches to CONSIDER, you sperg out like a retarded bot and act like everything this admitted noob says is solid graphic design theory that cannot be disputed.

Once again, troll refuses to address the OP's questions, offers zero opinions on OPs example, just attaches to anyone who tries like a tick in order to make the forum useless. What a sad child.

What is the catch? And how does it stand against GIMP?

The only catch with Affinity (as of current v3 release under Canva) is that it require a Canva account as formality when you first install it, it won't ask login again. If you're paranoid enough with muh data, you can opt out on setting, or even firewall block Affinity installation folder.

Feature wise, Affinity can totally replace Ps, Ai, and Id workflow; except Ps animation and some specific non-destructive editing. It's funny that companies willingly getting squeezed by Adobe subscription knowing that Affinity could handle the project for free now, with less performance bloat.

t. user since v1, and finally accepted that Canva's v3 actually an improvement over Serif's v2

Why is gimp so terrible and no good a alternative has popped up that is free open source and works on Linux? You’d think with something like blender there would be something as good but for graphic design.
Does Krita count?

Is gimp controlled opposition to be a bad software so people give up and go for the paid for ones or at least go for affinity now?

How well does the affinity suite run on winboat?
>>
>>463630
have you tried krita? not the same as pohotoshop and originally intended as drawing software, but it does many things better than gimp does.

might be enough for your needs. you should give it a try.

Should I learn Photoshop or Illustrator first?
I know both are practically essential, but which is better to learn first?
38 replies and 3 images omitted. Click here to view.

>>459488
Learn Photoshop then Illustrator, and apply design basics knowledge while at it
Photoshop is for pixel stuff, image editing and composing
Illustrator for vector graphics, so basically a lot of shit between creating icons for apps and logos to composing a full vectorial illustration, webside mockups or creating anything typography intensive
after that go InDesign once you get into layouts and grids for dense text and multipage prints like books and mags

>>462356
it comes down to usability and standarization. GIMP Inkscape, and other software like Krita and even the Affinity suit i guess do the very barebones basics as illustrator and Photoshop does, and you can do most things in those. it boils down to all the extra options some which are buried behind a bunch of drop downs that those software have stacked over years
Blend tool alone is a good reason to go for illustrator over affinity, it shits itself sometimes but good luck doing anything it does manually, saves a lot of time and allows for exploring other things with ease, no need to reinvent the wheel every single time

People throw a fit at GIMP for its shitty UX but Illustrator and InDesign aren't much better, they're just standard and thats why they get a pass
>>
>>463894
indesign is just for repetitive multipage design
>>
Photoshop.

When, I need design and curves, I gave up Illustrator. I use MSpaint, it's just good.
16 years experience as a professional illustrator and I use MSpaint from WindowsXP
