Where do I get cracked ae plugins now?
>>454354Rutracker.org, 1337x.to, all the all-purpose public torrent sites. For the actual Adobe applications there's monkrus.ws, but there's probably no plugins there. Go to reddit r/piracy or some more specifically Adobe plugin focused subreddit and try to find some sites. Basically go googling or use normie sites.
The #1 Reason i now hate this fucking JOB >I'm a recluse introvert i just want to sit in a dark room & make shit i don't want to become a faggot for a retarded audience
>>454114found the dumb ass cunt post!!!!!! yay! now fuck off
>>454112>i don't want to become a faggot for a retarded audienceWhy not? Consider it as baiting and trolling and say outrageous opionated opinions in public for free engagement.
>>454112no difference reallyit's all just bafflegab and busy workfor faggots and queers and women but I repeat myself
>>454275This image pisses me off. Well-done by the author.
>>454115But the culture is pozzed and worthless
What are some good collaborative sketching/drawing services or applications?Personally I'm looking for something that'll work as a graphical version of google docs, similar to flockdraw or ziteboard with decent tools for sketching, support for text and large canvases, as well as the ability to embed pictures and possibly gifs, ideally free/open-source or self-hosted.But feel free to share other related tools, anything you think is good.
>>454260the free ones i’ve used are Magma, Malmal/HelloPaint, and Drawpile. i believe they all allow public and private boards with varying graphic tools but Magma seems the most encompassing. if it’s for like corporate purposes there’s stuff like microsoft whiteboard as well
>>454260opencanvas if its still around
Is there an easy way to replicate the image degredation from repeatedly copying/faxing a document? Ideally this would be for PDF files, but any format would be better than nothing.
>>453902>downsizing would actually help you achieve degradation>i guess i'm not really understanding what the issue isNo shit, it works in in exactly the opposite way; reducing the size of an image is how line art and other images are cleaned up and an integral part of the process of creating art for print media back in the day.Easiest way to imitate copy/fax machine degradation digitally is to mess with light values, contrast, exposure, etc , since most photocopying artifacts and distortions are the result of the actual photographic part of the process and strong light was what allowed them to reject all but text and other deliberate markings....every generation was slightly overexposed and the contrast boosted so details like fine lines, dots and sharp corners would gradually melt away.At the same time, if you adjusted the machine darker to pickup those details any small dark areas, erased pencil lines and even the shadows of paper texture would get reproduced, and subsequent attempts to lighten them back out by re- copying with higher contrast wouldn't get all of them, leaving characteristic splotchiness.
each time the ink prints it’s not a digital process nor is the scanning it’s analog to digital in the scan and digital to analog in the printing so you would find the physics of the scanning process then simulate it and same for the printing, simulate the analog printingwith those 2 filters it’s an iterative process for each and the number of iterations increases the effect of scanning then printing, taking the output and repeating the process That’s how you would make an accurate fx or plugin or whatever but you can just jank it using photoshit
Try the app "LOWER" w the yellow icon :P
>>453663Yes.
>>454315Just to be clear, xerography is not an inherently digital process and doesn't use ink...it uses an electrically charged drum or belt to selectively attract a dry powder toner to desired print areas, that is then thermally fused to the paper printing substrate.It's more analogous to how powder coating works than printing and the less than precise nature of how it translates the source image to a static charge as well as the resolution available with the mechanical properties of the toner are part of what gives it its characteristic look and generational loss of detail and artifacting.The fact that xerography *isn't* digital is part of why it can be difficult to replicate convincingly using digital technology and digitally created files that tend to pixelate and show other obviously digital artifacts when deliberately degraded in a digital process.
What are you working on, /gd/?
>>454225Won't people smell shit in the bathroom from your kitchen.
I didn't want to create a thread for this, but can anyone tell me which text alignment is better for readability purposes or why am I too fucking dumb to know which one works best? (they both look weird to me to be honest, being a designer is tough)
>>454310OF COURSE I'd forget the godamn file
>>454311>being a designer is toughyou are so motherfucking stupid, wasting your and our time with half a centimeter of indentation!the text isn't even vertically aligned with the rose bars and still you are worrying about fucking 5 millimeters?!definitely the top one. now grow up and work for 10 minutes without asking for feedback, child.
>>454312the sheer honesty hurt a little but I'll take it like a champ, thank you for the feedback, anon
Is it even possible to incorporate rainbows into your designs in 2024 without it being a political reference?
>>454326Get lost trannyKys
>>454355here we can witness the ginormous brain power of the average channer: his vocabulary is composed of only "faggot","kys","tranny","nigger" and "reddit" and yet he has the cognitive capabilities to come shit up boards every fucking day without fail.
>>454227Yeah but don't use roygbiv or whatever the pride people use
>>454363Not interestedLGBT can burn in an iron cage. People hate you.Die, faggots.
>>454318>Why do /pol/fags keep coming here and shitting this board upthere's a few regulars that I would imagine have some inclination for graphic design, but they obsess 24/7 over /pol/shit, so they literally can't differentiate the two topics in their rotting mindthen they have the monthly (?) discord "raids" where they try to recruit/"redpill" normies from other boards
Is there a set of rules to generate Nine-Fold Script characters from Small Seal Script characters?Or is it completely up to the artist?
bump
Bump even though I don't know what this means, do I need to research this?
>>452993Morę or less the latter. They are a bit similar to Royal Monograms and to signatures. A styilised set of words. And that nine fold script has been chosen because it's easier to carve out a rectangular symbol.
Does anyone have a crack for the adobe softwares? Out of college now and I really don't have the spare money to pay for the softwares I need. I need Illustrator, Photoshop, Aftereffects, Indesign, and a couple others.
>>454217Yeah man just pay $60 to cancel your plan
>>454229Stop being poor.
>>441058Go to the r/piracy reddit, visit the megathread, go from there.You'll find anything you want.
>>454230stfu you fucking rich boy
>>453492look up gen p on reddit and follow all of their directions very closely.
Can you fix it? Show me what you got /gd/
for referencei'll post my spinoff later
Maybe this is one helpful aswell.
Standardise it and use the same bird holding a calendar icon.
>>453782What’s with this minimal color palette bullshit?
>noooo this icon needs to be a rembrandt level illustration even though it'll get absolutely decimated into a pile of ugly noise at the size i actually see icons at!!!!
Do I have the right to use 4chan's gradient background (along with a similar color theme) for a website ?
no, 4chan actually has gradients copyrighted
And what if I slightly change the colors of the gradient ?
>>454252no, 4chan actually has gradients with slightly changed colors copyrighted
>>454237That's what we call a human color. Only the Jews are permitted to have this tone mark their bodies. We're in hell.

>>454005not sure how well it'd work but couldn't you use layered shattered glass/crumpled paper textures of differing opacity? it looks like it's just a bunch of random geometric shapes layered to look more complicated than they really are.
>>453964this is my absolute favorite cover from them, wishing they could pull something like this again
>>448899Thats bullshit! look at this artpiece i found, believe it or not this is from 2019, at first glance this looks like something out of the early 2000s, so its absolutely possible to replicate it but you have a good point even if its not 100% accurate to the aesthetics of the 2000s it would be 100 times better as long as corporate memphis fucking dies

a fine art album for print?A painter asked me to design a book containing approx 120 paintings.Their sizes and ratios are quite haphazard, and some of them are good enough to take up a 2-page spread alone, while others are kind of rough and should be small in the book.Please share your experience and tips on this kind of project.
This really, really, really depends on the theme.Work backwards for any big project; what is the desired END result?Is it to make people feel good, arouse them, give them ideas, fascinate, depress them... or is it just a case of "This is my art hurrr!" which should probably be framed as a personal journey, character exploration, or a social bridge to make the artist new friends and connections?Lay out accordingly. Easier said than done though.Make it more of a story type book if it's a collection that'll allow it. If not, weave the art pieces together using colours, sizes, shapes, places, objects to induce the desired effects in the end viewer. Classic childrens pictoral books can be good at doing this kind of thing if you need some ideas.
>>454170Thank you for the wonderful reply.
>>454191i think its meager advicethis is not a 'what the reader feels' jobits a 'present the artist properly' jobid get some art books you like, have a talk with the artist. or look at a lot of art books, look at the artists work and have a vision of how to present it and make some sample pages for them to fall in love with.do you know a lot about art or design?
>>454194I'll come back in a little bit with some more details about how I've been putting this book together, maybe some pages in progress, and some specific questions about the process.Actually I've so far done pretty much every thing you've suggested (orienting towards the reader's experience, creating a thematic journey, studying various similar/related albums), which is encouraging.I have some background in art myself, but this is my first time doing a project like this.It's great to be able to discuss this with you!
Hi, Ive been into graphic design for a while, and I really feel like I wanna start doing my own thing instead of just admiring others pieces, where do I start? What book is best to read for the fundamentals? How should I actually build my own style? Anything helps, maybe its not the best place to ask idk, but I feel like some of you guys got a good grip of whats good and not. :)(piece by Visual bleed)
>>453732sticky
>>453732besides learning fundamentals, reading books and so on (which is incredibly important), the best way to start doing your own thing is...by starting to actually do something. it doesn't matter what, and your first pieces are most likely going to look like shit, but just like any other skill on this planet, the more you do it, the better you'll get at itgood luck!
>>453764Are there any resources on the fundamentals which you can recommend?
