>Can somebody photoshop X? Can somebody make me a logo?
All requests for photoshopping belong on /wsr/ - Worksafe Requests or /r/ - Adult Requests. /gd/ doesn't take requests or do free or even paid work sometimes. However, if you're new at something, asking "HOW can I X?" rather than "CAN YOU make X?" will give you better results.

>Can I post some of my work for critique?
There is usally a critique/What-Are-You-Working-On thread, and that is where work for critique go.

>Can somebody find [font]?
http://www.mediafire.com/download/027xjs3ujvyqxmd/Fonts.zip
also check out your local torrent site or the font-share thread.
Remember to share and not just take. Also remember that using liscensed fonts in commercial works is a bad idea.

Can I talk about video editing here? I really want to talk about it but I don't know what board really suits it, people at /tv/ just aren't interested at all

Nowadays, the only thing Premiere has over Davinci right now is the AI shit and communication with After, which is very useful, but Davinci is so good, is Premiere only so hegemonic because it's adobe?
>>
Premiere sucks. The only good thing about it, like you say is the compatibilty with other Adobe Programs, especially PS, AI, and AE. All can be circumvented when using Resolve but a pain sometimes. I still prefer Resolve and then switch to AE to add motion graphics and stuff.

Also, there is a /vid/ Video General over at /p/ that usually talks about editing along with general video stuff.
>>
Does anyone have a link to download pre-cracked davinci?

I've only ever used Capcut and premiere, but the integrarions with AE, PS, and other Adobe stuff is all it has going for it imo. I'm still stuck doing my aubtitles on Capcut because my cracked PP version doesn't transcribe properly, and I'm not paying for the convenience of doing my subs in PP when I can just as easily export then sub in Capcut. and I haven't found a way to manually import the language pack, that's the only thing that seems to be holding me up

what makes Resolve better?

just post stuff that you like and think other people might like
be it just because it looks cool or you think it's exemplary of what graphic design should strive to be

You went to school for graphic design because it's your passion. Did you end up as a "Graphic Designer", or something else? How's that working out?

Which one do you think is the best?

Best for what? These all have things they do better than the other in very specific areas. Realistically you'll pick whatever suits your niche best, and have access to accessory programs to help make work outside that niche easier.

I think CorelDraw is the best for my particular line of work (engineering, CNC toolpaths and laser engraving) mostly because I have access to macros that can make it do so much more, or whatever I want, to make my workflows faster. If you know visualbasic, you can write your own scripts easily.

If I have to create artistic assets, make logos, or artistic typesetting, most of the time I'll be using Illustrator.

Social media posts, if working with my collaborators, Canva.

Getting ChatGPT to write code for SVG files to import into any of these as vector files, might also be useful to some.

what softwares do you use to create diagrams and documents and shit like that? like create custom reusable components, position them on a grid, custom page sizes, a pdf document, mix text and images, stuff like that

Hello, I'm editing something together and I need to basically create a missing frame between this image & the one in my replies. Without it, there's too drastic of a jump. Can anyone morph these two together to create a 'missing frame'?
