A very old photo of a victorian spiral staircase in an old mansion.
What do you guys think?
Looks good maybe on Lightroom(different adobe software) or on camera raw(in the effects tab) lower the noise and/or sharpness
Unless you want to keep the foggy look
Which then nothing for me to critique on
I would say itās perfect
i did use LR and PS to do this effect in the first place 
yes it was the goal to look old
the raw render looks like this:
There quite a few versions i did
I'm basically just playing around.
Oh I see
Just with what you did you pulled off a very good job
However if you want to go farther maybe look into different photos back in the 1930?
I remember if itās the 1920 or the 1940s
And try to mimic them in a bit
But honestly save it how it is since itās practically perfect
And then play with it afterwards
different angles and rotations might also help
im gonna fiddle with it more and maybe i finally decide what to do with this personal project
Lol alright

Oh thank you ! š¤©
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @maiden umbra (current: #534 - 2)
any suggestions on this guys?
how can i make this better?
The overall hirearchy of the image is good. I first saw the big header, then the 50% off is really jumping at me. tho, you could sureley work on the shaddow of the shoe. The shape is ok, but make it a bit longer and flat, so it looks like the shoe is floating on a flat surface not like that where the shaddow is at an angle. also make sure the shaddow is fading towards the back of the shoe.
Ohk ohk ,i will fix the shadows....thanku so much
no problem good luckš
honestly, that's something you need to figure out. You need to know what elements you want your viewers to see first and last. For example maybe place the date of the event at the bottom with the time of the event. also maybe you could play with the color of the blocks behind the text to increase the visibility of the text. But overall it looks great

Before and After?
this was kindof a random project. nothing planned and i had nothing in mind. i just did what i thought in the moment. ani opinions?
Anyone know I can make this look better? I'm trying to make a science theme document and this doesn't really look nice
for this type of work, i don't think there is a specific answer to make this better since it's a combination of abstract and something real, related to science. Try looking for inpiration on pinterest, or try looking up abstract objects and make them relate to your project!
I would try not to make Lines "cut" limbs, also the head is in b/w but the rest is in color. The "Motion" text suggests fast Motion, but the person is more of a walking type that does not fit as good to the Theme of Motion. maybe concentrate on one Theme Motion OR Free your Head (=mind).
I would use a little bit more space between the colored shapes. Also you can try to make different sizes to represent different "Stages" in analytical science, etc.
i made the head b/w intentionally to maybe bring more attention to it, but thanks for the tips!
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @normal spoke (current: #24 - 75)
Normally when use colorkey the b/w parts are there for less attention. In that picture I get more attention on the hands. They are more prominent in the image. Also the yellow and violet shapes around the head are a bit distracting and not making anything to the image.
Wdym?

I hope that makes it a bit more clear.
Great piece. As @balmy timber said it would be cool to see the original elements that you used.
my recent design. will wait for the feedback guys
Idk if the text is necessary but it's good tho
Any small changes I should make before postingāļø Iām thinking of changing the color and maybe handwriting for dark blue marker
This is generally a good piece. Nicely done.
I feel like a few shadows would really help sell this composition. Compare the shadows around the fingers verses the lack of shadows around the phone and clock.
all of the elements NOT taking into account the particles
Damn, that was really nice, well done.
thanks

Fantastic compositing

Any brush recommendations or something?
I think for some people,it is quite hard to read the blue text
I agree, I donāt like it how it is I just donāt know how to keep the graffiti feel but also make it readable
And stay within the color palette
Maybe just a slightly offset white version of the text as a background and then I can do a darker blue?
Cause this is the original coloring I liked but I felt that the dark marker was unreadable and the tan looked weird with the spray brush for some reason
Also wouldnāt mind getting the spray paint part for the cover looking more realistic/look like itās sprayed on the surface of the magazine cover
Sorry, i meant the dark blue text on the image and background
Try it
Word Iāll give it a try
I just got out of wisdom teeth surgery so Iām tryna figure this out while also messed up š
anyone got some tips to make these splashes look more natural?
first time trying to do water like this

Maybe if you tried to blend the water with the overall color blends of image
I can send a video explaining what I mean along with some other things
However itās rather long and I would recommend seeing the parts thatāll fit and fix up your image

Oh time stamp
Uhmm
Iāll play with it all when I can
Definitely matching colors
Water is so hard to work with imo. This should make it a bit easier
And if you have the time shadows and absorbed light
Tempted to just retake the picture but throw real water at it
Specifically the absorbed light section
I was rly proud of the lighting
Iāll for sure show it off eventually
Or Ngl may just not add the splashes
Idk tbh
NO do the water maybe you can use other waterish textures but itll definitely pop if you mange to make it work out in the end
Iām at work rn but when im not Iāll play with it. Hope I saved the version with just the background tho
is this better
The water looks much better. Getting rid of that blue has also helped a lot.
Thanks for the feedback this actually went a long way lol

Gonna drop the final result in #šØshare-your-work-archive š
Unfortunately the file for this got corrupt, but for future reference with something like this that has a lot of similar colours, just wanting feedback in general and also how to make an image like this look less flat :)
It's ok, but is all looks a bit 'grey'. I'd make darks darker and the whites whiter... and include a tiny secondary colour somewhere:
Yeh!
Nice. Perhaps a little orange glow on the hat and collar to help unify everything
This is perhaps an example of where less could be more. The size and lighting of the rims makes them jump out more than the car. Is this intentional?
ah yeah nah i see that being the issue, there was something wrong with it but i couldnt tell what but yeah the attention isnt fully on the car
thank you as well, this helps also :)
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @novel comet (current: #7 - 690)
What chould i change ? š
you can try to match the shadows and Lights. Look how the Light is falling on the Player and also on the other objects. Then match the shadows and also look that they look natural. Also try maybe some shadow or other efect on the text that it will look a bit better and more dimensional.
I canāt remove the car somehow, every time I try to delete it the streets gets deleted too

Instead of trying to delete the shadow perhaps try selecting the shadow and raising the brightness (Curves, Levels, etc...)
Opinions?
does this look decent for a thumbnail ? just installed photoshop yesterday, not sure what to think of it
Too busy
Do you have any idea how I could keep the text but make it less busy, the info is pretty important
or should i just remove it
The onky 30 minutes is confusing, is it needed?
If you can remove thst text, the move the gear text up, it'll be easier to read
i'll try that thanks

Thank you for always giving feedback to my works.
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @abstract oxide (current: #26 - 71)
I tried creating some car driving trough snowy land.
Original car is this.
I did some distortion, because I think they look better a bit distorted.
not bad, but if the car was moving, you'd see some motion blur on the sides and wheels
I added path blur on ground and spin blur on wheels, I was too thinking about adding some motion blur to down part of a car.
Thank you for feedback.
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @paper axle (current: #314 - 4)
i've had to add motion blur to vehicles to get pika to animate them and what I usually do is select the side of them and then apply the motion blur just to the selected area, making sure that it is bluring in the direction the vehicle would be coming from
I see.
I spend a lot of time picking images too.
Maybe, that is the hardest part to create mockup.
Then I get too tired to add details. š
I wish I could draw, that would be more interesting and easier.
maybe you're trying to move too fast? sometimes you need to take your time, work on the project, take a break, come bck to it, tweak details, etc
Yes.
I am nervous by nature and want to finish fast.
but that's the best way to make mistakes. maybe work on multiple projects so you have things to do and can cycle around between them?
I will try to make my projects take longer time and do pauses in workflow.
Any suggestions on how to perfect this? Ive been told its good but i feel like its not perfect yet
You should think a bit more about your lighting and trying to match it up. You've got a highlight on the handle coming from the left side. However, the shadow of the knife is falling to the left. As if there is light coming from the right side. This doesn't make a lot of sense.
Also, if you intend this to be a giant knife leaning on this angle, how is it being held up? I think a portion of the blade would have to be buried in the ground for this object to be "resting" at this angle.
Ill take that on board, thank you smmm
Also do you have any recommendations for lighting and shadow tutorials cuz im pretty new to this
I don't have anything specific to suggest for this. There are probably many on YouTube. One of the best ways is just by observing. Also, going out and snapping some photos and examining light direction and how it corresponds to the cast shadows.
This is just a quick example. I didn't have the layers so I had to crudely mock this up... Perhaps use a Layer Mask to hide some of the blade so it looks like its stuck in the ground. Just a suggestion.
Then use Neural Filters > Harmonization... attempting to better match up the knife with the background.
I hope these things make sense. :)
Ahhh yeah that looks much better, thank you for sharing
Thanks mate. I hope it sometimes helps.
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @crisp bear (current: #125 - 11)
I like this composition. Your placement of elements and the colour scheme is really nice.
A few notesā¦
- Iām confused by the diagonal blurring in the lower right. It suggest some strong movement which isnāt seen anywhere else.
- Your gentle transitions work well in some areas but not others such as where you have trees fading away from bottom to top.
i tried to create a horror image by using different images. what do you think about this. Open for suggestions.
While you have lots of interesting elements, you donāt really have a focal point. Perhaps take the main witch and make her bigger or a little brighter. Some rim lighting from the moon could be cool.
Nice work on that knife image
I fixed it in later version, right side corner.
However, I added snow, and more mist, or snow dust behind the car (maybe too much)so maybe that is why trees look half way changing color, or maybe it is rare trees and mountains on right side while not zoomed look like half of a trees are different color.
Thatās looking great mate. The out of focus snow. The lights. Very nice.
Something about the shadow under the car feels a little off to me. Iām wondering if itās not dark enough. The shadows within the tree on the right look dark and contrasty. The shadow under the car feels a little washed out.
But again, the whole thing is looking great.
im making a movie poster for a school summative but im not sure what I should add or remove (I'm doing this on photopea since its the weekend, but will move to photoshop when the weekend is over)
small adjustments
I am not done with this and yes, I know there are a lot of mistakes, so can some people give some advice? Thanks!
Color matching and saturation is wrong.
Also, kinda weird light source or glow behind the mountains.
You need to have color that will be on everything.
In your case, and mostly used is cyan.
Mountains can not be just 100% black.
They need some mist, a perfect imperfecion is what make art good.
it's weird cuz that's a jpeg
Try to upload again.
not working
Maybe Discord is having some issue. Try again later.
Due to an on-going Discord incident, images are not loading properly. See: https://discordstatus.com/incidents/fk1j1k37l9mt
some gradient abstract bg i tried making. added some texture as well
Nice... Oppenheimer like vibes
https://andresportofolio.portfoliobox.net
could you take a look at my portofolio and tell me your opinion as a viewer? i really want to know how it interacts with new people
I'm trying to replicate a sunrise silhouetting the mountain range but I'm not sure how to do it. Also how do I add mist and do you mean mountain mist or sky mist?
Mist or fog, cyanish one.
That is hard project if you're just starting.
Yeah I am aware of that. I'm not aiming for perfection, just experimenting
How do I make the sunlight more natural?
If sun is raising, color of the sky will not be dark.
You would create something that goes from orangish red to yellow, to soft yellow, to white.
The place sun raises would be white, strong white, then it would give that orange redish sky across the vanishing point that would become less powerful as distance goes on.
The best way, as I was recommended, is to watch real images.
Here is the example.
Same image is a good example of mountains mist.
You do not need to go for realism always, but it is also not good to counter it much.
how do I recreate the sun rising though?
soft brush, soft brush with gradient...

It can all be done with just a soft brush.
Also my milky way looks kinda watery and stuff
Put it in screen blend mode.
@livid laurel
If you want milky way, here is what I would do.
I would turn it to fantasy, place big imaginery planet, put some glow on it (like it is some great moon), put big soft glow around it, make it as main source of light that would affect shadows and highlights.
For any mistake in process of highlights and shadows, there is a milky way of stars to blame (easily to get away with mistakes).
I would find image of an blue sky, and darken it to color per wish.
Same for mountains.
So, there is a tip, light and clear images are easy to darken, but you will have hard time lighting dark ones.
Image picking is the most important part in mockups.
Things needed:
- Planet
- Mountains
- Landscape
- Forest (Trees)
- Milky way (screen blend mode)
- Stars brush
- Fog/mist brush
If you need personal help you can DM me, or ask others in #āask-a-question , I 'll answer when I read, because am gonna play a game now.
Have fun Photoshoping.
Looks nice, but I would be a bit careful with blur and color transitions.
I feel something is missing or something is not right, but can't discover what.
I don't understand what it is, but it looks nice
If I add saturation/vibrance it looks like this.
Still not catchy to my eye.
The saturation is the issue. It's virbrant at the fromt and almost greyscale further back.
Thank you. I don't know if the curve of higher shadows or color balance is the problem, will check it for background things.

Haha. Nice.
Yes, curves were problem.
I was going for effects that "What is further away is more foggy".
One of new is not that realistic, mountains are too sharp, and they look close, which is not realistic.
Another one is close.
Thank you again for help, it was on point.
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @novel comet (current: #7 - 693)
@novel comet I am dumb.
I am trying to have haze effects in night, while everything should be just dark.
It does not work like for daylight (what's further it has more fog).
Either I have to darken all, except the car, guy and dog, or lighten this trees and front trees to make it daylight.
Hello
I wonder what can i add to this company profile, they want something more but i dont know how to make it any better,
Ideas?
Yeah. The logo is missing from most banners there.
Oh wait, what is it? A little booklet?
I think it's a bit empty without much written.
I didn't even realize what I had done.
Idea?
Thoughts on how to improve this, going for an eyecatching look on the Instagram explore page for my account
Would it look better if I changed the background color to this shade and the text to the background shade?
Theye are examples I followed.
This is my end result.
2 days working on it, but still not there.
Show full project with that color.
Apart from the underline being off centre with the heading, it looks good to me š
I think the heavy fog in image 2 justifies the strong headlight beams.
I also really like the warm glow of headlights from image 2. š
yo! im new to photoshop and im wondering what would make this picture better?
What can i do to make this look even better (its for a game)
idk what i did xD
Perhaps a few specular highlights
Congrats on getting into Photoshop.
The color balance and contrast are vastly different between all of the photos. I would recommend trying to balance these.

Made this flyer about the lecture, but im stuck on where to pt the following intro, placement size and style etc
any ideas?
Please, feedback
Which is better? Going for a minimalistic but eye catching look for my page
The "Behind" on the second doesn't look centered to me. Perhaps because of the curve on the D
Did this art for a friend of mine. Any opinions to improve?
blend the horizon with the sky
like put more mist in here
also
everythings look pale
Well i kindof went for that low saturated look. if i put more saturation it looks more alive and the points is to be dead š
i get ya
but still everything looks very hazy and blurry
what u suggest?
i think
maybe the tree aint it
cuz it doesnt look right
so maybe get rid of it
yeh so maybe for the foreground put some grass
well dunno
me lost
After some more retouching i got to this hope you enjoy!
Oh it looks like something I've been doing recently
It doesn't look so realistic, but I became too lazy to do what is what is
Material
honestly it's pretty good. the shadow i'd say shouldn't be so clear since the light source is not so specifit. it's more from all directions
Try to make a mask for the grass and make a vague border on the horizon and add fog
Did a Call of duty MW2 art black & white glowing lights
Interested about feedback on contrast, saturation and color.
Ground dominant color is green.
Sky dominant color is blue.
Man dominant color is blue.
You have two color saturated that fighting each other.
That is the biggest problem there.
Also, horizon line does not corespond to man.
lookin pretty good... the building on the right side needs to be blended better with the ground, as it looks a bit pasted in there
Same thinking.
I tried hard with curves, but still it is contrasty. Thank you.
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @worthy igloo (current: #835 - 1)
Reds and oranges are over satturated.
Between houses and ground you should put some mist, it is clearly recognizable that it is gradiented.
Looking for critiques! Going for a 90's themed tuner magazine
I did not select bridge well, xd.
Also it should be more desaturated in distance.
But well, fixable...
Too much text.
You've never seen a 90's tuner magazine have you XD
I did not.
love cars and the theme you chose! personally, i'd say the yellow text line in the lower section of the image is too much
ty! I was thinking that but at the same time I didn't want the whole section to be black and white XD
you have more experience with computers than years I have been alive š
It is good if you are going for that then.
You will have more in my age.
it's absolutely ok that the text down there is only black/white, as the viewer's attention should be on the headline and the Nissan
Fair enough, didn't even think about that to be honest
I also have this one
more of a poster look rather than a magazine
how does the horizon line not corespond to the man? the perspective seems absolutely fine to me
the "RIP" on one of the tombstones is backwards, not too sure what the squiggle of green is, and the lighting on the man doesn't seem right, other than that the horizon line is fine, fog looks good, and the other tombstones are fine. Looks good!
Thanks! the RIP is inverted becasue the tombstone is inverted so it looks good. i guess i could have worked on that
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @spare edge (current: #835 - 1)
Do you have original man image?
I would suggest getting a marque of the "RIP" and try flipping it again and edit the lighting with the brush pen from there!
@wooden whale
if there's so much green light on the tombstone next to the man, there should be green light on the tombstone I circled too
Also grass should be green all the way to where light reaching end point is.
But, those are details.
^^ this too
that doesn't seem right
yeah that's definitely not right
that's the point he's making XD
Yeah. That why main image is important.
i know bro dw š
o okay
Manipulating photos is hardest thing in PS.
Perspective is the first thing that needs to match.
I have bought some tutorials for it.
I am not doing it right either.
But, the most important thing is choice of photos.
Second, logic and talent.
Just third is knowing PS.
Lets practice and become better. š„°
Hello, which one is better and why? I am going for a minimalistic feel with little text but lots of information while staying simple. It has to be eye catching but not very out of place on my page.
the second but with black instead of red. to me the "Behind" doesn't look symmetricle
@thorn stratus i prefer the first one, because it really catches without any color gradient irritating
the first one looks cleaner though
I got you guys, do you think if I added his profile on the first one it would be better?
Thanks though for the thought
yeah, you can try... idk if it makes a big difference though
If minimalism and simplicity are the goal here then I think the first one
I really like your colour and contrast choices.
Given the strong contrast I think your figures in the foreground need stronger shadows.
Should I open more shadows on right side buildings?
and mountains as well?
I mean open shadows in curves and make them more foggy
Centered "Behind the Screens" from first and card from second.
Or just center everything in first one.
what font is used here?
Don't remember I can check
https://www.behance.net/gallery/189185247/The-Detail-Chronicles If you like Still life photography, please check my last project š
i feel like it needs more contrast, especially the dark corners (to create more depth). also, the light is too bright
If we are about details, darken persons foot.
I like the glows, which are my weakest point.
When I watch better, person has more blue color than rest of the photo.
I understand sir
Actually my monitor is not well calibrated (80$ monitor) so I don't know exactly what it's gonna look like until I import the finalised project on my phone (OLED display)
like the others said, more contrast, try to retouch the lighting on his head, it feels too directional from the right, and make the middle a touch less hazy and with a bit deeper of all the colors overall
Okay bro gotcha
Thoughts on this? Going for a minimalistic but bold feel. I am trying to make it eye catching and stand out, will take any and all criticism or feedback please
this greenish color and the grey background are very similar from the saturation and brightness. it needs more contrast of colors
To me the green colors don't match eachother
I don't think green on green is a great choice.
What's it for anyway? a document cover? social media banner?

How do I make these characters fit into the backdrop so it feels like they're part of it?
Add some shadows
Add some shadows, noise and a lut (adjust the opacity of course)
I like the mood and the colors. The bird for me is not as dominant as it should be and the glowing is way to much. Also why is the bird at the bottom of a tree? Also where does it come from? From the Storytelling perspective I would place the bird on a branch and place a more red/orange sunset behind the scene.
Is this a composite or AI?
If it's a composite could we see the original assets?
I also agree shadows are needed.
You could try adding some lights that both illuminate parts of the background and the characters.
Yeah I understand, then I should make another composition with bird as the primary character on the branch.
Actually I added the glow to hide the imperfections of selecting the bird
No it's not AI (Photoshop 2020 š
)
Sure here's the original assets
Hey this is fantastic. Really good compositing mate.
I like to check these days as so many people are passing off AI as their own artwork.
Personally I hate AI, previously I used Midjourney for timepass but now I'm bored from all of those stuff
Good to see some people are still using the Photoshop Tools panel š
I know that AI saves time, but I'm not a professional and I'm doing it for passion, although I wanna make money with this but still it's my hobby. So I restrain myself from those AI lollipops.
Good to hear. Best of luck going pro.
This is my new version, I added some branding text. Now my problem is that this looks like some composition created by a 5-year-old. I need it to look professional enough. Any ideas on how to do this?
in my opinion text is very bright
any tips to how to improve this
Nice Concept. Maybe try to adjust Light, Shadows and Color. The Mountain in the back is a bit blurry. The Mountain in the front has high contrast and the snake has no shadows. Also maybe put some fog and/or clouds over the snake.

As @normal spoke has already mentioned, a little selective contrast boost will go a long way with this composite.
TY
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @abstract oxide (current: #26 - 74)
Perhaps simplify the text. I'd start by losing or changing the gradient and seeing if that helps. The colour of the "S" and the glow are nearly identical which serves to make it look blurry.
No worries. Thank you.

can somone give me a first impresion of my portofolio? i just finished taking it. i'm waiting on some opinions!

Made with Framer
Lovely effort, but quite a few typo's throughout it.
Here I ChatGPT has re-written your 'about me' section without the typos and dodgy grammar:
Hello, I'm Andres, a graphic designer hailing from Cluj-Napoca, Romania. The rich traditions and cultural tapestry of my homeland have always held a special place in my heart, making me never want to part ways with it. Growing up, I was a highly social individual, always forging new connections.
Creativity has been a constant strength of mine, leading me to the discovery of graphic design. The moment I delved into this realm, I knew it was my lifelong calling. My understanding of the principles of graphic design, coupled with a keen eye for aesthetics, enables me to navigate each project with precision. I am committed to utilizing my creativity to ensure the satisfaction of every client who chooses to avail themselves of my services.
My passion for sports, particularly football (soccer) in my youth, eventually evolved into a deep interest in boxing as I matured. The world of boxing instilled in me a profound sense of discipline, which proved invaluable when I embarked on a self-taught journey into graphic design. The process of immersing myself in various courses and devouring numerous books demanded patience and unwavering discipline. While there is still much for me to grasp, I am dedicated to continuous learning to stay competitive in my field.
I also think this bright vibrant background is quite distracting:
i tried putting something more bright im the background as it's more contrasting witht he font
so the ones you sent are basically the right ones? xD btw those i did not use chatgps for. only for the "what i do" section i did
Yeah. I think so, it focuses a little more on your design instead of football and has no spelling mistakes.
You clearly like your blues and purples, I'd knock back the background and do something more like this....
I'm also not quite sure what your 'logo/brand' is. You use that 'A' symbol that I like, but then have that big banner on the homepage which seems entirely different.
I'm trying to make a sort of neon effect, but Ill try
right. that also looks much better. thanks a lot

You could also turn that 'Mark' you have into more of an actual idenitifiable logo/brand?
(Sorry, just bored at the moment whilst I hide out in the office whilst my kids are falling asleep)
that's not a bad concept š thanks
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @novel comet (current: #7 - 704)
could you tell me the font name u used?
Ummm. Closed it, didn't save it. - probably Helvetica Neue Black.
so i kind of really liked ur idea and i went with this. please don't sue me xD
I want this to be more realistic as if they were part of the same picture.
I'm honoured that you followed my approach. no problem!
https://andresportofolio.framer.ai
wanna take a look? a lot of improvement has been made thanks to you
Made with Framer
Nice. I'd maybe darken the BG a little more like this since it's a little too distracting:
vs the current look:
ohh right! nice obsevation
but generally, a nice improvement!
How do I blend the blue guy into the background image?
My suggestion would be to reduce his overall brightness and add some heavy shadows.
How do I add shadows, my current one looks fake.
Rock and snake are yellowish, contrasty.
Background is hazed, dusty, foggy, shadowy.
You have idea.
You do not have a good lighting, constrast, saturation, color, haze.
I will soon go on pc, and do quick things to that.
Looks to me like you are successfully adding shadow. The blue guy is definitely looking more at home in this scene. Push the shadows harder and see what you get.
Mmk
More shadow
Added blur to shadow.
How do I make this better

Hello!
Recently I decided to dig deeper into ultra realistic rendering again, so naturally the first step was to recreate an asset and try to match it to reality.
I decided to create a victorian cast iron staircase as a dress piece for this scene. The scene takes place in an old mansion room that is functioning as a private art gallery.
I would love to get feedback on composition, materials and overall look!

Its a nice image. What is the focal point meant to be for this image? Is it the bust/head sculpture? If so, I think its placement in the composition could be better. In a "Rule of Thirds" scenario, there might be a slightly better placement. However, overall, it has nice qualities...
Thanks for the feedback!
I was already applying the golden ratio, yeah. Was placing the singular Apple as a focal point:
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @wooden oak (current: #4 - 1604)
But yeah, it is not alligned perfectly.
I might change the assets completely. we have to see
the only constant is the room and the staircase
Its not bad at all really. I was just thinking that the main focal point of the image should occupy one of those points. (Probably the lower left one.)
š yep
Great work on the models / 3d scene. :)
Thanks, it was quite an undertaking in R&D. Turns out a cast iron material and the process behind it is very difficult to replicate correctly. This is the node tree of that material:

Thoughts on how to improve will take any thoughts or criticisms going for a minimalistic design but still eye catching
Looking for feedback and criticism on my graphic design for the hockey team I shoot for. This is my third ever actual creation.
Micah seems a bit out of place on the bottom image and I really have no idea how I would go about fixing that
how can i make them the same color or something
go through each individual person and adjust their tint, color grading and calibration
helo
can someone give me feedback on what i should do for a logo that has BS?
not a big fan on how you cut out your players, what i would do is go to your quick selection tool and select subject, i love the layout and your thought for the shadows but the lighting doesnt make sense, maybe spice up the background and donāt manipulate the numbers, just looks a little off, overall i love your thought process and style though, also, camera raw filter! trust me, some simple tweaks and dodge and burn and it adds so much to the design. I love where your going and if this is just your third design i can see you going places.
im just a fellow designer youre probably better than me in your eyes, we all have areas we could improve in
i am making an magzine cover theme crypto what i can add
;-; i dont lnow how can i make magzine cover look like magzine cover can someone suggest
i created this post. Open for feedback.
i created this yesterday for gemstone product. It's not looking that much good. What should i do?
Nice idea with the 3D effect. But you did not put that red/green effect on the Text. I would do it the other way around so that only the face of him is in Focus, all surroundings are sharp and also the Text is in 3D.
in that picture you have several Gemstones that are lighted from different angles. you should choose always the same Lighting. Light and shadowy are not consistent in the whole image. shadows on the stons and on the other elements are different. stones seem to "hover" over the table thing. My Tipp: Look at other photographed Stones and analyse how the placement, lighting, Composition, etc. is made and use that for your own.
Just finished this. Took me about 2 1/2 hours xD
What we think about this
Anything to critique/improve on? Please ping if you wish to respond
Aspiration/Reference
(By the way, had no reference while creating this. For a couple hours. W h y)
What would be the difference in cutting them out with the other tool? And what do you mean by ācamera raw filterā?
theres really good tutorials on retouching players in camera raw on youtube, theyād explain better than me
Are you referring to basically just Lightroom edits? What should I do to make it better? I decreased saturation and exposure a little.
hey id really appreciate feedback on this WIP . i wanted to go for a clean esports feel. i personally dont think the graphic looks cohesive because of the middle grey rectangle that separates the top from the bottom. are there any suggestions to having a better looking divider? i will change the title, colors, and bottom background later on. any other tips would be much appreciated. thanks
that looks sick
Ground should be maybe dark on that place.
But it is just fast done without detailed checking.
I think the perspective/angles are off. I think placing them on a plate is never going to work. I'd try something like this:
(vs) original
Yeah, gradient divider between dark upper and lighter down grey color.
This is a fantastic piece. Really nicely done. The time lapse was cool to see.
If you are looking for suggestions, I think the reflection in the eyes needs a little yellow.
Congrats on the comp.
Great colour. Great contrast.
I'd like to see the two halves better matched in terms of alignment. Eyes, chin, etc...
The clothing on the left could also use some highlights.
Give your opinion about this composition please guys
thank you
i think it is really good
thanks mate

This is as far as I could go on this one.
Any ideas on improving this one??
I am trying to have overal cyanish and yellow-orange tone.
I should add harder tone from the sun probably.
Not satisfied with this.
Amazing i like it very much
I m try to fix it
I think this is looking much better in terms of alignment.
Personally I would like to see a little more of the detail you removed in the lower right. As already previously mentioned, a little detail/highlight in the lower left would be nice.
Personaly I think I should lower luminosity of red in camera raw, change wizard glow to orange instead purple, and work out left mountain weird shadow.
Is there anything else anyone could recommend?
I'd go for a stronger contrast on the top half, like this:
Given that the setting sun appears to be your primary light source, I think almost everything, including the mountains and castles, should be in near silhouette.
Similar highlight by size?
If thats so, then I should fix left mountain that has much highlight on its side.
Others are pretty similar.
Or you meant on intensivity of highlights?
I think i understand.
Lighting should barelly touch surface of every object.
Like a tiny line.
I will try it tomorrow.
Thank you, and yes, my main problem is in highlighting areas, I am battling with it for quite a time for now.
Mostly I skip nice selections etc. just to practice highlights.
Thanks mate. Happy to help. And it sounds like youāve got what Iām talking about.
For me the biggest issue is the inconsistent lighting. Some objects are flatly lit, others partially lit and others in near silhouette.
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @crisp bear (current: #95 - 15)
looks very good
Sweet. Colorize it fully!
Actually I don't have graphics tablet so I don't know will it be good or not

Any ideas on what to change to make this look a bit more fancy?
the spelling?
chandelier? wall mounted lighting? A textured door?
The plants look like what you'd see at the entrance to Ikea, not a grand theatre.
Also, the floor looks like it's from a shed, not luxuy theatre.
(Sorry, I was trying to be helpful and not just insulting!)
not great, but I did it in about 7 minutes:
some looks lame, like the lights, but the flooring I think works...
oh the marbled floor huh.

Maybe make the font more intresting
Noted
should i change michael keaton's photo too?
It feels a bit off to meš
what do you think?
Nice layout and presentation. The coffee cup looks like its "floating" somewhat. You might want to adjust the shadow to make it look more attached to the surface.
I would make BAT-VERSE one word. BATVERSE. And as rev3rse said, try some other fonts.
Okay noted

jsut finished this artwork. inspired but with my touches added to it!
It's all subjective of course, but personally I think it's too busy to consider it a truly minimalistic poster, so instead I'd just go the whole hog and put a really knocked back cityscape in the background, as well as a secondary contrasting colour. Maybe something like this: š (Don't judge, that was 7-8 mins work)
Any critiques? Concept album poster.
looks a bit blank to me. if it's a poster it should probably contain more elements but that's up to you and your style

Oh man
this looks goood
Thanks a lot!!
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @novel comet (current: #7 - 713)
Way better i think a sharper font would fit way more to the theme
Same as Andress said and maybe add a bit of noise
hello guys , please help me what changes should i make in it to make it better
You've done a really good job putting this together.
I would add a very small but dark(ish) shadow directly under the cap and under the plant just near the cap.
You could also try fading out the large shadow so we don't see the end.
Should i also make changes to any of the text ??
Is there any particular reason why you are cropping this? You are losing part of the title and the page text is too close to the edge.
No no ...i just want the text 'fresh' really big and Highlited
Cropping the body?
Or what part
And i have to make to product smaller if i want to leave some space at the edge?
Sorry...nl question mark
No*
While I like negative space, your design potentially feels a little empty.
Perhaps you could try a version where the product occupies the entire left half while all the text occupies the right half.
You've chopped off the top, bottom and sides of the original image
Ohkk...i will try that also
I coudn't find the original picture I lost it, then I found a chopped version online
Perhaps you can find a cover from a different issue and borrow parts from that.
Mhm, what can I improve about mine tho
I feel like I am finished
This is a horribly rushed mockup but a possible idea for another layout.
This. This is better!
Bigger product image, less bits crammed into edges.
The band along the bottom better contains the contact info instead of letting it float about.
"Order Now" is in a more sensible location when you consider the order that text is read on the page.
Thanks mate
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @novel comet (current: #7 - 714)
Comments above already added. - but also, from a commercial point of view, the product info on the tube itself is INSANELY too small.
(Unless that tube is literally a foot long)
Ohkk...i will make improvements to it
Not Bad. - the bent skewer looks a bit weird, but generally pretty good.
ENTIRELY subjective, but I think the background is a little too distracting making it a little harder to see the product. I'd do something to make the product stand out a tiny bit more:
tahnks for the feedback
Omg I love this so much
Sank yuuuu āŗļø š Worked very hard on it!
Making more š
i dont know if this looks good, i was trying to fix the upper text "women's fellowship presents" but idk the colour just doesn't seem to just work with the background. I also don't know if i selected the right colours for the other text. though in mind i thought it'd look good, i dont know if i made the right colour choices
I think you have a LOT of different fonts, and styles, effects, gradients, shadows going on.
What's the purpose? Is it for a social media post? Is this the correct proportions?
@shrewd marsh
Could anyone give a professional opinion on this movie poster i jsut made?
I like most of it, but....
- Text at bottom isn't central
- I don't think you need to STRETCH the L. - I think it would still work at a 'normal' size.
I'm also a tiny bit confused about the proportions. Is that what the yanks calls 'Letter' size? It's not international A4 proportions.
oh ur right abt the text
also what do you mean bt proportions?
The L i streched bc when it was normal i felt like the design was focusing to much in only 1 specific point and the rest was really empty
re: Proportions - I don't design movie posters, so could be completely wrong, but page size looks too short and fat:
as in.... if you printed it, it wouldn't fit in any magazine anywhere, or any poster frame outside a cinema.
(but again, I have little experience in this area so could be wrong @wooden whale )
ohh right. Didn't actually think about that this was just a personal project but i'll defo think about that in the future
thanks!
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @novel comet (current: #7 - 716)
btw should i place the credits on the right side like this? i was thinking that most of the weight in the image is in the left side and maybe this will balance it out. what do u think?
Definately central.
(FYI - It's called a "billing block"
ohh okok ty
Any critiques?
@thorny obsidian This looks sick, I love the style. Only thing would maybe be increase the texturing in the face a tad to blend it more but still keep it the focus, but it looks super good
Thanks!! Can't believe people are actually suggesting to add in more detail lol. Usually I get the opposite advised, but now I know my real folks šš
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @mystic plover (current: #837 - 1)
Depends on it's purpose?
Itās a poster for me and my fiancĆ©s bedroom, just something that looks cool that we could frame
I guess you could blend the planets better to match with the overall feel better
Toddler Deadpool
Not bad. Since you asked for feedback, I felt it was useless if I just said "yeah great" - so this is constructive...
- "Coming Soon" is partly unreadable
- Is the lightning supposed to be IN the road? - feels like the bottom part of the lightning layer needs to be masked off the road a little?
I think I should make the road darken little bit
Hii everyone!
Here is my task submission for the design internship position, where I had to Design an intuitive navigation menu for Blinkit app, ensuring seamless user experience across diverse functionalities.
Would be really grateful if you could see and provide any valuable feedbackš.
https://www.behance.net/gallery/189998173/Blinkit-App-Navigation-menu
I'm impressed. How is this meant to be submitted? As a long, white document or is this how behance displays all documents?
oh, sorry, I've found the 'slides' view now
Looking for feedback on this design I made!
If I'm being picky, I'd suggest you bring in a tiny bit of colour and additional weight for the headings and subheadings. I also think that annotation lines that are seemingly random angles don't look great and prefer 'straight' angled ones that don't cover the screen seem to look a little more considered (see top right).
Even just a tiny coloured bar along the bottom of the pages stops the design looking completely void/empty.
Try and avoid single words on a line where you can (known as Orphans) and add a little spacing between bulletpoints to make it more easily readable.
I'm slightly obsessed with brutalism as of right now
Also, when you only have a little bit to say on a page, maybe find something else to include on the page? e.g....
Give your opinion about this composition please guys
thank you
One obvious thing to me is the window...
yeah i cut the window out to make that transperant and added another pic behind that
wow
Just a bit darker with the green behind might help?
thanks mate
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @novel comet (current: #7 - 721)
You could do that by painting in some green behind and changing the blend mode of the window to multiply
i will try that thank you for your suggestion
Can i get feedback on this? Like what can i do to this to make it more poster-ish. Maybe some abstract things as well or idk i ran out of ideas
Like the idea/concept and approach. maybe try to have some Edge Lighting on the Chain and text so that it pos more out. Also mybe try to give the "Chanied" Text a more "grundy" look by ading some texture or so. For the story in the pickture maybe some hammer that knocks on the cement / wall or chain to try to brack it. Right now the dude looks pretty much chilled with that chain around his neck š
Also you can try to add some wall flower or so.
Thanks for the ideas
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @normal spoke (current: #25 - 77)
Besides what James said I also would look on how the light falls. On some edges you have the Light, but then they are missing at the same time...
Also for me there is the bouncing light from the right side wall missing.
The guy on the left has light on his right face side, the guy in the middle has no light from the right at all and the guy on the right seem to have Light from the front. That oes not seem to be as consistent as the eye would expect it.
Also the dudes on the front do not seem to have such sharp edges but the corpses in the background hanging from the roof are sharp. Normally things in the back are more out of focus. maybe try to putthe same graininess that are on the dudes also on the window side and the background that it all fits together. The concept itself I like!
Hello
Im a former graphic designer but have been working in the 3D and CG industry for the past 10 years. I have decided to dive back into graphic design and work on a new personal portfolio that hopefully will get back into the field
I have started working on my first project "Totstack". The name is a casual term for a small child or toddler, and "Stack," referring to stacking toys incorporating a playful and child-friendly tone into the name.
I have been following abiconnick who i think is a brilliant designer with a very unique style and has been using her brand guidlines template
this is just a work in program and i would like to know if i still get a chance in the industry haha
I absolutely love the logo, the assets, the colours, pattern etc, Social posts work well too.
The only thing I'd change is how they're presented.
There's some nice examples showing how others have done this here:
https://venngage.com/blog/brand-guidelines-templates/
very detailed concept. I first asked myself why TotStack and not ToddStack but anyway. Designwise it seems pretty clean. The Logo could maybe also get some 3D effect on the edges. The Faced on the squares are pretty generic, but maybe effective. The Design overall feels very formal and generative. maybe try some kind of unique Shape or Image and a slogan that loosens the whole thing up a bit.
Todstack?
'Tots' is a term for small children. Tots
... oh were you thinking Toddler?
Ok, then t may work. Yes I was thinking of Toddler.
Thank you @novel comet I'll take a look at the templates
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @novel comet (current: #7 - 724)
yeah. Makes perfect sense. - I'd started to think you'd lost your mind!
@normal spoke the faces on the squares represents toddlers stacking blocks on top of each other. I actually have another version with the 3d effect but I felt it got too busy
Can you suggest how to make it less formal? I'm trying my best to keep it simple and trust me it's not easy haha
The Logo pretty much reminds me of the "Toys R us" Logo š maybe add shadows on Text/shapes, use more vibrant colors with less black mixed in it, rearange Text (not every time left-alligned, mix it up, etc.). For the Logo maybe try to loosen it up to ad some "Gimmick" in it. a stylized children's rattle, pacifier or toy maybe.
how do you like the execution? really listened to ur advice
Ok will try to do that. Thank you!
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @normal spoke (current: #22 - 78)
getting better. Try maybe some variations on that and decide what you like best.
What do you guys think of the lighting on this and how can I further improve this for it to look as natural as possible?
wow thank your for this reply i really need that.
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @normal spoke (current: #22 - 79)
Maybe some Motion blur and some depth of field blur + some snow could push it a bit further.
Nice work.
I would think the ice would be a little reflective. Perhaps a touch of colour to suggest a reflection as opposed to just a shadow.
Critique? Please ping if you wish to reply
Do I still need to add text/poster graphic h
I understand it's a maximalist poster but oml there's SO MUCH going on
:^)
I didn't even know what it was for a good few seconds š
it looks cool tho- I feel like if you do text it's either gonna stand out WAYYY too much or it's gonna get buried
Nah nah not in the photo
not at all at this point
So here's some sense of reference:
Hold on
Ok well nothing is loading, computer is not turning on
Those are gorgeous
I was suggested last time that I should add in more detail since the piece was empty and lacking direction at the same time
Wondering if I should apply the same, but a simplistic focus text outside the art
Since the main is aoowosisjoaowkoo
HYes 'w'
for the first one or for the ones you just sent?
the ones you just sent are like
PERFECT
internet is going at the rate od 1 turtle
Very first, to see if I should remain consistent to my last one
There we go
Ooooooo
Those are all amazing
I don't think it lacks direction at all
The before definitely did, that was somewhat of the final product
Before and the suggestion:
It was actually a very mindful and interestingly accurate advice, never heard of it like that before
if this internet keeps taking this long to load im just going to start viciously chewing cardboard at this point
Hmmm well I'll experiment when my computer turns back on ;C
Don't know what happened
Started blasting music then the screen went black
hh
Worked on these, ordinary PS things.
Color balance in photo number 2 is alright.
You don't have to add anything and you can add non important things like some fog or haze in back elements, birds in sky, darker sky and lighting strike or whatever, but it is good as it is.
I reduced the saturation on the side of the product and I think it looks a little more realistic.
Thank you.
I reduced it even more, it was oversaturated.
Even this looks warmer without much saturation.
Hey thatās looking really good.
I think you need to work on the highlights and shadows on the vegetable basket to make it better match the bag.
You might also want to add a touch of noise to your entire images. The large blocks of solid colour and perfect gradients make it feel a little fake.
Ty.
I acually added a bag on top with multiply and did some blend if, but it still comes smooth.
Maybe because area of a bag is smooth also on particular place.
Thereās lots of ways to generate noise in Photoshop.
You could even find an image of noise, throw it on top of your layers, change the blending mode and lower the opacity.
I see.
I will consider that in some next projects.
This one is already sent.
Customers usually do not notice such things. š
Excellent. Best of luck with all those future projects.
challenge feedback pls
i would make the image more dramatic by adding all kinds of effects and elements
hmm, thanks
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @wooden whale (current: #158 - 9)
For these type of projects you should really give camera raw filter a try. Just play with the sliders untill you like the look! You can also try some of those overlay textures which u can find for free anywhere
how do I do that? sorry I'm new to this
this banner is pretty bland, well for now, i don't know what else to add to make it more alive, any feedbacks?
Oh no problem. So it would be kind of long to explain it here since there are a lot of principles to this. What i strongly recommend you do is you go to skillshare/udemy and take courses. First set of courses should be about software learning itself, so you familiarize yourself with the program bc when photoshop is intimidating to you that's a problem. After you learned the software enough i recommend you take courses on graphic design fundamentals. For these more realistic designs you need to understand perspective, lightning, highlights, blending objects etc. And then there are the basic graphic design fundamentals like contrast, hirearchy, grids, color theory and many more. I guess you can use youtube but skillshare is stupidly cheap for what you can learn from there and it's 100x more professional than yt.
For example in ur photo your focal point (the boy) has no contrast compared to the bg making it hard to notice. by adding more effects, highklights and contrast you can make your focal point more visible
š
It's got potential! What's it for?
Is it a facebook banner or something? Where is it being used?
yup, a facebook banner
also thanks!
i screenshotted it wrongly thats why it feels kinda off for you if you noticed
The only thing it's missing is emotion
i feel like its soulless š
I'll have a think and get back to you

Have you checked things like canva or Adobe express for inspiration/ideas?
nope
im doing that right now though!
I just tried using a different weight for the bottom part:
Sticking some smokey, perfume/flower/whisps of smoke, etc, and some kind of box to hold it all in.
Or without the box?
One small issue, is that the colour AMBER is orange, not purple?
damn thats not what i expected, thats so amazing
yup, but the owner of the page is called amber so yeah
i think with the box looks much better
that look even better
(I used this as inspiration)
where do you get these backgrounds?
Here's an example of how it was made.
I generated the background in mindjourney,

that actually gives more of the perfume/feminine vibes just as you said, i might consider changing the font just because of that, the only reason i used that bold font is because the logo uses it
Well, if they have a logo already, I guess you want some consistency - I'll leave you to decide how to proceed! Good luck.
(P.S. The 2nd font was called "Beyond Infinity")
Thanks!, you did a lot for me today i don't think i deserve all of that š, but i'll definitely take your advice

It's honestly fine. I like helping people who are at least trying to learn and complete their projects themselves. - I tend to ignore people that come here and say "Hey I need a logo designed, or "I'll pay 5 bucks for a t-shirt design!"
it's my first time around here, i did not know these people existed š
Critique????? I have no clue what the hell I'm doing but i
Please ping if you wish to respond
Love the detail on this, here's some vibrancy/fogged contrast reference to consider
I would say add more depth to it.
Also, the far object is, less contrast it would have.
You can use little elements like leaves, particles or rock near camera.
Other thing the image lacks colors. Different colors make image better looking.
Maybe add smoke?
And lighten up castle?
You already did good job. The image still has much more potential.
You can make it lot more interesting.
It's cool. Sort of 90s, early 2000s, it looks homemade and sort of camp. My only issue is that it's kind of hard to tell what it is, as is often the case with designs like this as a whole. What is this for? Kind of looks like a casette cover.
Same. It looked nice.
But i also had no idea what is it.
Or what you did.
Me neither šš
Answer i was not expecting lol.
It kind of just rolled out that way, when I wanted to put a more major focus on a border-text situation, to get a break from the cluster a bit
Since this was my first time, I think I'll have a more direct reference if it leans on a poster-feel again
Although I didn't have a reference whilst creating it ii
I made this comic book themed header.
I want this to be perfect so please be brutally honest
left is the villian version and right is the hero version
This is a logo i created for a concept brand named "The Golden Hop Brewery & Restaurant" The look of the place is vintage, with a lot of rich old wood. Kindof like an old london pub.
Any opinions?
I think itās generally really good. Everything is quite balanced and I like the colour scheme.
I feel that the word "golden" should at the very least have a capital G. I would also recommend making āTheā small and āGoldenā far bigger.
okay sure! thanks for the tips

Does anyone have any feedback?
Can you give me some feedbacks ? š„¹ I'm a newbie
how to add depth to that image?
There are many different ways to do it.
You can pick one or multiple.
For example, Blur adds depth. You can put focus on subject and add blurr to things which are either too far away from camera, or too close to camera.
For example blurred particle or leaf or a rock.
Other thing is contrast. make sure you set distant objects to a low contrast. they should not be detailed and sharp.
other thing is add some object near camera. and make it dark/shadowy. For nice depth.
It is a whole thing, you can search about it on youtube.
You should always add depth otherwise the composite will look Flat and no environement to image
One nice this in this image is that you added bluish fog to mountains and horizon. that is also depth. The distant things are usually this type of blue colored dull.
Thank you

i am needing feed back what i can do differently or at least improve i wanna get better
Updated
Deleted the original but if someone could lmk if this looks good Iād preesh it š
I could do better on the masking. I used AI Generative fill to finish the knee on the bottom
I like it but I don't understand it
Yeah, the masking isn't 100%, but the lower the image resolution, the harder it is.
Like you donāt understand what it means or the text isnāt readable
I think the composition choice is a little strange. Also, what's it for? - All busy down in the left and empty on the right,
Itās just a graphic design thing for my IG, the 8 is the brand logo and the brand is cult of 8
Probably doesn't "get it". - Like, it doesn't appeal to me, but that's just a style preference.
And then the text on the second pic is supposed to be like security cams, and I tried to edit it to where it looks like itās glitching
Thatās fair
Yeah. I'm absolutely not knocking the technical build. I'm usually pretty quick to point out objective flaws when giving feedback on here and I'm staying quiet on yours š
Thanks ā¤ļø
hi guys, the left is original photo, and right is edited photo. I am trying to get vegetation on that building. I want your opinion about is it convincing that builiding is spreaded by plants?
I had to look twice to realize that there was something on the wall. At first it looked as if only the coloring was adjusted here. I would maybe try to paint a few more branches and bushes. The leaves that are at the top of the roof and on the right edge of the house do not look like they belong to the building. Here the color and sharpness do not seem to match that of the building. So you can still rework it.
Here is you should learn. Image is not combination of Darkest + Lightest color. It should contain a smooth bridge from dark to light. In images you shared. I see the light which is bright solid color with glow. And shadows which are dull black. Light does not work that way. You should make smooth shading. Different intensity of shadow and light.
If you make something glow. It will have different brightness of light reflected upon things.
Looks good bro
Yo
what do you guys think would fit as a background for a computer/mobile store banner?
or should i leave it blank like a solid color
This is advertisement for job appliance, or how you call it.
My duty was to present white wall color, and try to make it take market place of the region where this shop is present.
First guy is dissapointed by color, it is like entrance, and then solution is "our color". Buy it, you can color more wall, it is eco, not expensive, smells nice etc.
Photoshop and Premiere Pro used.
A concert poster for a imaginary band - this is for my high school media arts class. Just wondering if anyone sees any areas for improvement, thanks in advance!
I would say do not use One single color for everything. You can use different color and create better focus on subject. If you were to use only 1 specific color for this paint ad. Then use gradient or different shades atleast..one single solid color carrying whole ad is not much eye catching
Looks cool to me
thoughts?
Font is too bold for theme. I would feel more relaxed if you use thin font.
And more like..handwriting style? Stylish.
I see you adjusted bottom text. Since its hollow it does not burden much. But you should not use same Font, same Text, and same size twice in a photo. There should be only 1 heading.
It would look better if you delete top Relax heading (in my opinion).
I like most of it, only thing I actively dislike is the TAKE.......................................A..................................... BREAK...................................TO........
Stick it all on one line. If the text needs to be smaller/lighter to fit it in, then so be it!
what do yall think about this, a logo for computer and mobile accessories, (MAINLY for mobile)
not finished with it yet, i dont know what else is out there to be added so i came here again
Consider if this logo will be readable at 25mm.
NOIRSTORE will, but the tagline wont. - Is that an issue?
I think if you just increased the weight of the tagline, and made sure that NOIR and STORE were the same weight (and font), you'd be good! - It can still work with stroke+none stroke.
also your idea is pretty good
A U?!
yup
In that case your logo has bigger problems š
There is no way many people would think the phone represented a U. - I think you'll need to use it elsewhere.
thought that a phone would be a closest thing to a U
also the nour and store are in the same font š
idk if it gave you the illusion that theres one bigger than the other
no i mean like
i said "in" the same font
look
this is what i mean
not the same font
yes i forgot that word
i didin't have the same font for both
Hey
Cool.
wait
that one is good actually
I had bought it in another pc
And i forgot that account
I also got a new laptop
And i cant buy photoshop again
Thoughts?
its good but i had to look for a while to realize that its a pen
@slow jasper - I may as well send these over to you before I delete it š
idk if thats just me

You won't get any help asking here in the Official Adobe Photoshop discord server.
Thanksš maybe I should give it boosters š
The PC doesn't matter. Adobe is a subscription and you can sign in to your Adobe Account from any computer and install the apps.
If you can't remember your password, just contact Adobe Customer Care and they will get your account sorted out.
that person person is probably making stuff up as an excuse

What it means
Oh word
Itās for a theme Iām doing on my IG with burning stuff and like burning down the system vibes
So it was an intro post to that theme, the goal was mainly for it to look cool but also have kinda super villain vibes
Any feedback for the proportions and composition of this? Itās for the first slide of an ig post
I can get the quality and stuff higher but first I wanna see if this layout of things is visually pleasing
After coming back and looking at it I think thereās too much weight on the left compared to the right

Some movie posters i made. i am a beginner as well btw give me feedback.
Good start, Nice work. - I see you've been using colours, gradients, masking, effects etc.
The John Wick one is a bit bright, - I think you could darken it a little more:
ok tysm for the feedback
Thats good work. I will definately use atleast 2 opposite colors. Instead of one in whole poster.
Also try to match contrast of all images.
Make sure what is direction of light when combining images.
yep thanks i will watch some tutorials on lighting and blending images together
yeah its not very good because i used auto contrast š
Also, from a movie-poster perspective I personally think it's better to not repeat the same character multiple times š - Looks weird! - but this is just personal preference and not related to your photoshop skills.
You're just beginner so its all good. I can say you are an intermidiate now.
It's differnt poses bro. I like it though.
for the john wick one i only used him because i was going for a poster based around the character instead of based around the movie but i get your point
Ye. Its just personal preferance got it. But i prsonally like that style. Different poses and same character looks good..
Try camera raw filter next. Its cool.
i actually did use camera raw filter but i didnt really know what i was doing
ok thx
Feedback?
the video is a case study on Jonathan James, the guy who hacked nasa for fun
From the Thumbnail point of view its very well composed. maybe try to make the text a bit more pop-out by Outline it or make a bright shadow, etc. and/or make a white or greenish Outline around the guy in the middle. The text right now looks a bit flat. Also parts of the text is not visible.
Thanks for the feedback bro, appreciate it
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @normal spoke (current: #22 - 80)
Any tips on improving this?
Perhaps rework how the text and subject overlap. For me they obscure too much of each other.
Perhaps a little contrast boost?
There is a lot of green light in this scene. So much so I feel that more of it should be falling on his face. I've probably overdone it but I hope it shows what I'm saying.
Hey, this is my first ever attempt to make a serious project in photoshop, i was trying to do a football poster but i wanted first to do one with lol esports player Faker, i would love to receive any feedback (positive or negative) to improve my work
Looks really good for a first attempt. Its a lot of red and the elements are somewhat melting together. I might break it up a bit and do some of the text in white so that it stands out against the red and black background. I like the addition of the halftone. Good work. Keep going!
That makes sense, but I think the contrast the red face makes with the green background woulf work better for a thumbnail
Thank you tho, appreciate it

This is a fantastic piece for a first project. You should be very proud.
If you are looking for suggestions, I think the whole thing could use some brightening and perhaps a contrast boost.
I'm not a fan of his face hidden behind the text.
Keep up the great work.
Ty very much š
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @lean kayak (current: #396 - 3)
Thanks for the feedback, i will add more white in my next one
np man
ty, yeah you are right it looks better, for the face i had no other choice i made a mistake by puting all 3 photos in a dynamic layer very early so i couldnt put the text above the trophy and behind his head at the same time
i will try re doing one and fixing the text
now that I think about it I should have put an additional layer with his head and put the text behind it
oh i didn't mean to make it ugly, i wanted to create more depth
i tried these two options but idk they feel off, the first one misses the R and makes it just "fake" and the second one still has the same problem, any suggestions?
Perhaps youāve overcomplicated things for yourself.
What if you used just 2, instead of 3, images of Faker?
This would give you more room to move around the portraits without obscuring the title.
I wouldnāt say youāve made it ugly. Itās just hard for me to see whatās what.
something like this? it feels a little bit empty on the right
maybe i should add another small image
Quick question, do you guys think the colorgrading is enough or too suddle?
Here is without it:
with:
to be honest I do not see much of a difference. It may your choice what you like better.
That's fair
