>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.zipalso check out your local torrent site or the font-share thread.Remember to share and not just take.

I have a very simple question, I hope I'm not on the wrong board.I have a book in pdf form (pic related) and I want to print it out and bind it, but I want to move the text of the left pages to the left and the text of the right pages to the right. How do I do that? I downloaded Foxit PDF Editor but it doesn't have that option.
>>454556theres no really a clean way to do that, so really its not an easy question. is each page of the pdf file a spread like pic rel or is each page of the book its own page?is the file all pixels (images of pages) or is it selectable text still?

>>454274what are some sites that have this small pixel aesthetic? i love it
>>454519https://www.nitrome.com/i genuinely don't think they've changed their layout since i found them over a decade ago. unfortunately the site is one of many that took a hit due to flash's end
>>454521Thats rad, wish I knew about that site sooner.
>>446215Wooow, core memory unlocked. Fond memories of doing my own mildly successful E/N website, hoping to affiliate with Spoono one day.

Anybody knows how the Monotype app works and what it actually does?Long story short, one of my clients has recently required that I switch to using the app instead of providing the fonts for projects directly. The thing is I definitely have some fonts with missing licenses on my PC so the last thing Id want is some big fuckoff corporate app snooping around my files and potentially bricking my entire font library.Any insight on this is welcome!
also fuck em!>HGGC Explores $4 Billion Sale of Typeface Firm Monotype>Monotype, which was taken private by HGGC in a $825 million deal four years ago, will be pitched to industry players and other private equity firms, according to the people. The company generates annual earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization of more than $200 million, they said.

Looking forward to be a Freelancer Graphic Designer and Blender Artist.I'm a 19 years old male, I decided to not attend to college because In my point of view, it's just not worthy it, paying thousands for something you can learn online. Here is my problem though, I don't know where I should start. I feel like I'm not confident enough, and I don't know many places where I could capitalize over my work.I'm currently working at my family's business, but it's so annoying having to work with public, and being at a family's business doesn't make you feel like you are independent. Which is what I'm looking forward to be.It's been hard since everyone tries to push me into college, because in their mind, college = easy life. And I really don't bother getting minimum wage as long, I'm doing something that I enjoy.
>>454284>something you can learn onlineNO ONE anywhere online has a years-long structured system of tutorials and exercises that are going to get you good at design - and that you are going to follow thru on."i dont know where i should start:"you cant even get started, guy!!!!your view of education is flawed. and your family's view of education (according to you) is also flawed. you want an easy life, become a lawyer or a plumber or a garbage collector. a freelance design life, college or no, is not an easy life. no clue what you are doing with your family but you are utterly fucking wrong on education.
Apparently a lot of graphic designers / coders / artists of all kinds are gonna get assfucked by AI stuff. As an artist myself this kinda worrys me.
>>454284Good point
>>454284Unrelated, but where can I find someone to draw me a logo for a personal website ? I don't need anything really professional...
>>454549Use DALL·E. It’s cheaper and probably better than what you’d get from a designer, especially from around here.
Hey anons, i have a selfish request. This is an exterior design of a house I plan to build. Without changing the proportions too much is there any way you could make it look more cool and aesthetic? Im not sure what but i feel like something is missing from it looking very cool, rich and futuristic.I hope this is the place to ask. Thanks in advance my NwordsNote: the big windows are North-west facing
>>454292nice gas station pumps
>>454287>Just enough to get the bag and get girls>>454268>im barely scraping by so no cash moneySooo, i'm guessing you are no hit with the ladies either, huh?
>>454265You're not white…
>>454333Checked.But false actually i have a gf and many girls want to marry me because im stable, have a future and plans and a nice family>>454334False, im pretty much as white as they come, im in EU btw
>>454265Can't get more souless than that bruv. I'm an architect but I'm pretty busy. I could make you a simple design (plan, sections and 3D's) for a couple Ks
Wish I could punch this stupid fucking cat

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 allNowadays, 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?
>>450885what "AI shit"
>>453665>fcpx>can't even cut videos correctly>15000gb cache for a 10min 4K video>motion effects on par with 2010 after effects>"want an effect ? just buy a template bro"fcpx is okay if pirated and used for quick editing (vlogs, tiktok shit, ect)
>>450885Resolve is horrible.... anyone who thinks otherwise literally has no idea what they are talking about. Resolve MIGHT be used to do color correction by some professionals, but that should and is likely to change soon because Resolve has countless problems. I did what most people did where I couldn't stand using Premiere at one point because of Adobe's bullshit, so I tried to switch to Resolve, I went RUNNING back to Premiere. Anyone claiming they switched over is not editing anything substantial. Here's a short list of things Resolve sucks at:1. the display is all fuzzy; it's meant for color correction but the program can't even display the video in the quality that any other video player can; this is because it can't scale down without making the image go to shit.2. Text made in program will look like shit, when I used it I couldn't make titles without them having colored fringe around the edges... so you'll need to make 100% of your titles in another program.3. I figured that because Resolve is at the very least used for high end color correction it could be used to do green screen composites... well it actually can't. Even the keying in Premiere which is also pretty shitty is about 1,000 times better than what Resolves exported composite look like, they are 100% unusable with Resolve. Even when it comes to color grading Resolve almost under no setting will actually export what you see in the timeline... and not only will the gamma shift in various browsers or video players, it won't even look the same when reimported into FUCKING Resolve! Source: I'm a professional editor and could go on and on and on and on; Fuck Resolve and fuck Resolvetards
>>450885I use sony vegas pro. All my motion graphics are done in After Effects, then i export and compile the full length film in sony vegas.
>>453907>NOOOOOOO YOU HAVE TO USE ADOBE SHITWEAR THAT HASN'T BEEN UPDATED SINCE 2010 >I'M A PROFESSIONAL BUT I DONT KNOW HOW TO USE CHROMA KEY ITS THE SOFTWARES FAULT AAAAAAAAAAAFusion is a 1000x better at compositing, AE is 20% better than Fusion at doing motion graphics.Learning Resolve + Fusion is the better time investment unless you want to be an Adobe slave forever. Resolve and Fusion are bound to surpass AE and Pr in every way (already the case for Pr, literally abandonware at this point)source: I actually use my brain
Which one do you think is the best?Tell us why you made your choice.
>>453314Talking, it's all about talking, that's where the money is. Talk to a fucking camera, upload, repeat. Talking. Fucking talking.
>>453314Procreate, Canva and considering paying for Glitche (been using it ever since it came out and using it for free is becoming increasingly more inconvenient).
>>453375Figma ballz lmaoo
>>453314i'd say illustrator just cos i'm most used to it but functionally probably figma. canva is objectively dogshit tho LOLL
>>453314Paint Tool SAI 2 (pirated) then save whatever the fuck you made as PSD then change it into whatever the fuck you want in Illustrator (pirated). I have been working using this method for the past 4 years and nothing bad has happened.

Does anyone have the Berkeley Mono (https://berkeleygraphics.com/typefaces/berkeley-mono/) full please?One was shared years ago on files.catbox.moe but the link has since expired.
>>449641this is so kind, thank you
>>454176https://files.catbox.moe/55jvt8.zipI downloaded this one from somewhere a month or two back, it had a broken grave (u0060 `, would overlap onto characters typed in certain places like Windows Terminal and vscode), so I went into fontforge and edited the character (Element>Glyph Info>OT Glyph Class> Mark --> Base Glyph).this is v1.008, not the newest v1.009 (couldn't find it anywhere)
Hey /gd/, anyone knows what typeface/font this is?Thanks
Does anyone here happen to know how to make custom font from scratch? Do I need some highly specific software or can this be achieved with Affinity Designer, for example?

>>448845>Alegriaizedin english doc
>>454517alegria is one (of many) names for the widely used illustration style that you associate with tech companies.you can find the wiki article under its more widely known name 'memphis':https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corporate_Memphispeople here have a tradition of equating this style with political believes they themselves do not identify with, which keeps them stuck in a perpetual cycle of unintelligently ranting against it.it is the careworn midwit version of a political statement, "disguised" as an artistic/cultural criticism (...or sth. I am not even sure what it is supposed to be). sure, you *could* have interesting conversations about artistic characteristics of that style or the anthropological context it is coming from. but from experience this forum is not the right place to do so in a productive/insightful manner
How would you describe these PicMix gif designs?
>>454499as cringe and funny as they are they have soul. since the people making them are trying to express a feeling. Even if it is tacky, its genuine.
>>454501I actually agree with thisI was gonna laugh at the pic but imagining it through the lens of someone coping with the loss of their dog tugged at my heart
>>454501>>454503yeah, i get the vibe there are some genuine expressions going on being delivered in a tacky way.
>>454511>genuine expressions going on being delivered in a tacky wayI feel like genuine expression is the biggest thing lacking in art at the momenteveryone just wants to make a statement or signal this or that with no real desire to get THEIR emotions across, but the emotions of whatever they've ascribed themselves to projecting
