Jumping on the logo rating bandwagon. Any feedback/advice will be appreciated. This logo is to represent me doing free lance graphic design. My experience with gd is a year of photoshop/illustrator in high school (half a year each) like 6 years ago and just online tutorials for whatever I've worked on since then.
>>213799It... it's bad.No beveled edges, no starlight glint on the last piece of sand, vertically center the text in the top half of the hourglass (not the glass and the frame), maybe a better title font. Sand doesn't settle in a curve at the bottom of an hourglass, it is a cone. From our perspective a point/triangle. Design lends itself to geometric rather than this soft curvy stuff. Taller hourglass please.
>>213799Make that star shaped thing solid white with the dot inside it black.Make the border thinner. Remove the text from the logo and put it next to it instead. Center the hourglass in the frame and clean it up (you've got a bit of a flange showing on the right side).
>>213799You have got to be fucking kidding me. This concept is horrible. Who wants the design done at the last second? No one. You are implicitly telling the customer that the design they are paying for is going to be something you shat out right before the deadline.
>>213811>>213816Thinner, different font, move font outside, taller>>214110It was more related to my sense of humor. The logo isn't being used for anything serious right now, more like casual photoshopping for side money. It also goes both ways. It can also apply to people looking for an image made right before their deadline.
>>214426Image didn't upload.

Opinions on my resume? I'm trying something new and I'm in a creative field (not graphics design, clearly).I know it needs some work, especially in layout, so any help would be appreciated.
>>213872okay good point
After 2 seconds I want to punch the op in the face. Possibly mutilate his corpse.
How are people leaving GD degrees and STILL needing help with choosing a fucking body typeface fucking hell.Just do a nice, well aligned grid, with decent type, no fucking skill bars, QRs or lame graphics, sent along with your folio.
>>213871Waste of ink, shitty logo, remove stupid character, photo doesn't need to be there since your grid already adds that structure and all it does is waste ink and make your body type less legible.
>>213871Could you switch the titles onto the black area and the content onto the white area? Maybe make the black area less dark and only a quarter of the page. In the text of your Freelance paragraph at least have one named employer with employment dates in brackets.This is an attention getting resume for a recent grad. The style would not suit large organisations with screening software.
Why is this logo so fucking shit.
>>214398Because it's a cheap logo derivated from an old LDLC logo. It's like... 10 or 12 years old.Après, est ce que tu viens juste partager ton opinion, ou est ce que tu bosse pour LDLC pour refaire le logo?
Hello.
Its for a clothing brand called crow. It's supposed to show simplicity and detail, but I can't get my head around it. It has this unfinished look imo. The problem is I don't know what it needs
>>214227Fine-ass luxury clothes>>214242Children clothing
>>214227bad connotation
>>214326Maybe lol
>>214227i have something else in mind
>>214227font spacing is hideous`
My image looks great in Photoshop, Windows, and Imgur, but when I upload it to steam is looks like a potato. How can I fix this? My render settings are PNG-8 at full quality with a file size of 7.42 KB
What is .jpeg artifact?
You pretty much can't as steam compresses pretty much any file even if it's as low as 5KB.To make it look less crap when compressed I suggest you to avoid heavy contrasted colors and web save colors.
first of all ew, second try different formats
>>214356You can try overlaying noise over it. I found out it helps especially when I'm uploading images with lots of flats to sites which compress images.
Why do people say this is ugly? What did I do wrong?
>>214032What is it supposed to be???
>>214032If it's supposed to be a sphere, why are the drips totally flat?Crack open Blender and remake it.
Not shit version
>not shit>please fix this
I genuinely have no idea what this is or what it's supposed to represent. Also part of the circle looks like it was drawn with a pen tool rather than just making a circle.
What's wrong with this graph?
Or this one?
