>>453800I haven't seen an ad for a graphic design job in literally a year where I live. the last job ad I saw I got that job and I've been looking for a new one ever since, nothing.

Is going to college (either for a degree or a certificate in design) a waste of money when things like skillshare and udemy exist?I've been fucking with photoshop for well over a decade but only got seriously in to design recently, and I'm enrolled for a certificate but I can't shake the feeling that I'm spending several grand on an education I could match for several hundred dollars so long as I put the effort in.
>>453034if this anon is known for getting txetile jobs done well per client expectations and not for being an artist, the network wont translate over, most likely.but something made that network, some connction - people, the city, the nearby industries, and something got these people in position (ie the textile business they worked for)you have to get these pieces to fall into place. sometimes school is the bet place for it.i feel into a similar production team, met an older colleague who took me aboard and we did some shit together for awhile. but one thing we had in common? we went to the samereally arty school, at diferent times, and we had a whole background in common that we could trust in.so its not an either or, its a both and fr some of us. clients im working for now? went to school with them.
>>453563i think it looks kewl. op should check Mondo 2000 magazine. similar vibe.
>>453698good shout, I've been looking for stuff like thisit's hard to find scans of the 80s-90s i-d mags but all of these are on archive

>>453037This is really motivating. I work at a wholesale printing company and I've gotten to know a lot of the ins and outs of effective design for production. I would like to go freelance full-time at a later point, and I feel I'll have an advantage because of the production knowledge I've acquired. It's staggering how often designers don't think about how their design fits into the end product, most of my job revolves around fixing their shit.

>>452605Why is this aesthetic wrapped in with the Windows 8 "Metro" theme? They were not even in the same decade. The colorful/grungy and flat style was a thing of the mid to late 00s. Windows 8 was released in fucking 2012. The style was already dying by the time Windows 8 came. There was nothing in this style that look remotely related to Windows Metro. And why is "Frutiger" even in the name? It doesn't have anything in common with Aero other than being in the same decade.These names people are coming up with make no damn sense.
People who decided to 'own' these things to show their merit to the world as in 'educating' others are 'undergraduate art students', 'neets' and 'young, so don't have a recollection of things in a time span of a decade or two over 14 years ago but thats ok'.Do not expect them to do things like filtering Google results by a time range. Some of them are convinced that the truth is as good as the 'emotion it invokes', that's why the nonsense clustering and naming. They live in some timeless void where they are driven by emotional stimulus and attention.
fyi a gaanoo/linux now has a font manager, that is basically the same as nexusfont on windows or the macos built-in one, and also provides a font file viewer:https://github.com/FontManager/font-managerfeel free to discuss any other freetard design software that may have emerged or improved recently.krita looks like a much more ok replacement for photoshop than gimp at this point, including smart layers and free transforms, but can be a bit buggy.there seems to be nothing that can properly replace illustrator, adobe xd or affinity designer (inkscape has no concept of paragraphs, scribus is too procedural and hard to use for fast web/ui design iteration, the color picker lacks hsl and hsv) unfortunately, but you can prove me wrong.
I'm from the US and am on vacation in Europe and I bought this pate in the store earlier. I really dig the simplicity and color of the design.

no overarching themejust post stuff that you like and think other people might likebe it just because it looks cool or you think it's exemplary of what graphic design should strive to be

>>453978I don't really use pinterest, I just scan archives and dumps for magazines and collections and then pick through them
>>453978Sorry, I don't use Pinterest and only come to this board from time to time. Almost everything I have I get from 4chan and slsk
I have to design some "posters". One of those will have "facility rules" on it. Which font would you guys use for making it look like commie propaganda?Basically, tips and tricks to make some decent communist regime like propaganda posters.
>>453891With very few exceptions those kinds of posters use ALL CAPS and sans-serif block lettering that is intended to display strength, determination and brutal resolve, and tries way too hard. So much so that even if you can't read the lettering they are so over the top in both bold, blocky typeface and stark, in-your-face layout that you can't help but recognize the cliche for what it is.Basically nothing is a soft sell or an appeal to humanity or individual feelings and even things like letter spacing make few concessions to making anything easy or pleasant or persuasive...they are NOT asking you to think, they are ordering you to agree and OBEY.

>>454435>propaganda is propagandawho would've thought!
>>454154this. what would russians even get from western people fighting against each other?
>>454437Not all propaganda follows that template, dumbfuck; propaganda can be subtle, it can cajole and flatter and appeal to people's gentler nature as a means of manipulating them. Totalitarian collectivist propaganda as a rule does not take that approach, especialy once that rule is established. STFU and read a book.
How are some people getting paid 191k and I barely get 65k a year in a large Midwest city anons
>>452961There are some people getting paid $65k a year and I only make $38k a year.
>>452961Your job sucks. Next post.
>>454376You guys are getting paid??
>>452961GetABetterJob
>>452961that question largely depends on what your occupation actually is
>still can't measure distances between rulers and elements>still can't move rulers with keyboard>rulers still not snapping to anything>still can't adjust width of left and right menu>still no tabs>still not .exe to install the desktop appInstead we have css grid layout that literally no one asked for and no one will use due to above reasons and also because most designers dont know css and will do everything in their power to avoid learning it. Congratulations I'm actually impressed by how comically awful penpot is after literal YEARS of development. Anyway back to Figma.
>>454099>rulers still not snapping to anythingwow. Fuck everything about that.
>>454099current figma user here, I gave penpot a shot but it still kinda feels off, there are a few details that are quite significant for me like being able to click on a value and drag sideways to change and try it in real time instead of typing them manually
Make a pull request and fix it yourself, if it bothers you so much. Complaining about free software, baka.
do any of you guys draw, like regular normal drawing? post your drawing?
I have been drawing my comics and manga for some time now, DREAMLANDS: Lives and Epics. Dark fantasy series
>>454235Cool.
>>432082thats crazy, reminds me of terriblegodlike on instagram, you do any graffiti ever?
>>449794Didnβt use any reference for that one, but thereβs a lot in Pinterest. Just takes a while to train the algorithm to return useful stuff
>>448835Learn the names of the main bones and muscles. Proko yt channel is perfect and he tells it like it is. He knows the main artists and interviews them. Thereβs no easy way.
Is MDE/Sam Hyde's current art style cool or embarrassing? Sincere and naive or ironic?
>>447629The stock is definitely in a downward trajectory. Only held up by sam being good at avoiding mainstream memes - these always die in cringe within long.He still slips up, like when he allows his team to dub the massively overrused black man exaggerated laugh audio (the "oh no no no" one) into his videos.Sam just isn't cutting edge any more, and he only focuses on perfecting what he sees as the peak of his aesthetic, and his advice giving internet dad persona. We don't need more of those. The only funny thing he's done in the last 5 years is the video from the boxing fight where he says he's coming for Hasan Piker "in real life"
>>447629World Peace graphics are still some of the best I've ever seen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kT8vPNsrACo
>>453813I forgot to mention the saddest part, these graphics were what Sam submitted that he made with Pomp&Clout but all the text and WP logos were erased and only the cast names left. Sad stuff.
