[mighty dragon]

Gave +1 Creative Carma to @meager lion (current: #342 - 4)

[meager lion]

I think the only thing I could suggest is maybe reducing the noise on the left pic of Nicki

[meager lion]

Yahh ofc!

[cunning tartan]

Ok

[cunning tartan]

It’s my first time putting time into a poster Lmaoo

[meager lion]

But even then that's up to u! I only feel that way cuz it kinda "numbs" her face like makes it very unclearish

[meager lion]

Whoaaa seriously?!? This is super good for a 1st man! Good work

Love the fonts and lines too!

[cunning tartan]

[cunning tartan]

Oki

[meager lion]

But yeee I'm a 😴, later ✌🏾

[wooden oak]

This might be a good topic of a live stream. (Making a note of that.)

[toxic dome]

@meager lion

not sure what to add to this, i wanted to add something in the tv screen but idk what to put in there

[meager lion]

LES GO! Pls ping me when u start that stream 🙏🏽👀

[meager lion]

YOOOO WHAT THE HECK this is fire 😮

I love the artstyle u got going on

[meager lion]

Hmmm you could try a nostalgic image but honestly the static looks great too*

[meager lion]

This might be cheesy, but you could put something that's nostalgic to you! An album cover, pic of a tv show scene, etc

But maybe overlay it

[meager lion]

In terms of anything else, I'd honestly only recommend blurring the moon but that's just for realism purposes

You rlly don't need to if this is ur style

[toxic dome]

i was doing that just now 💀

[limpid condor]

ig it would look better if u centered the planet in the middle or if u moved the tv to the right, might look more balanced and not as scuffed on the left side also making 1 thing smaller and the other one bigger would give better contrast

[toxic dome]

i was thinking of adding a pic of me but nothing really fits and i dont really like any of the backgrounds of my pics

[meager lion]

Ayyyy dope!

[meager lion]

Ahhh I see 👀

[toxic dome]

originally it was like that but i wanted it to the side to make the shadow sideways

what it looks like right now

[limpid condor]

i see i see

[limpid condor]

i kinda think this would look nicer

[limpid condor]

might be my preference

[meager lion]

If u do wanna blur it u think i gotta do it a lot

[toxic dome]

the pictures i used

[meager lion]

Danngg act crazy assets u used to turn into this, nice work man

[toxic dome]

yes i used the same sky from my ww3 pic 💀

[toxic dome]

thank youu 🙏

[mighty dragon]

Gave +1 Creative Carma to @meager lion (current: #280 - 5)

[meager lion]

Ahhh HAHA ayo I couldnt tell

[toxic dome]

i might add something tot he other side

but i kinda want the sun on the left

[meager lion]

But yeah I think you'd have to do this if u wanna blur (it's also a cloudy sky so maybe add clouds covering it)

[toxic dome]

oo yeah u right

[limpid condor]

free upscale tool that u can download

[limpid condor]

gotcha

[toxic dome]

whatsthis

[limpid condor]

upscales ur images

makes them better quality

[toxic dome]

why tho

[limpid condor]

not pixelated

[meager lion]

Maybe dont use a gaussian blur jus cuz a view that close to ur perspective would probs be a clear view?

[toxic dome]

they arent bad quality tho 😭!

[limpid condor]

ig

[meager lion]

It's just the clouds and dusty vibe that made me think it woulda been nice

[limpid condor]

for the future

[toxic dome]

thanks u ❤️

[limpid condor]

np

[toxic dome]

i was gonna get a dust thing

like

yk

but i cant find a dust picture to use

[meager lion]

Yeaaa that works!

[toxic dome]

and i dont have any brushes like that

[meager lion]

Maybe a noise filter tooo

[meager lion]

Aww shoot 😭 hmm maybe search up like a dune poster tutorial on yt cuz dune has such a dusty vibe yk

Like they could have assets u'd like

[meager lion]

Yeaaa honestly u sent a ss right so

I doubt u needa upscale it 🤷🏽‍♂️

[toxic dome]

ohh yeah :ssku

this is a

like

i added dust

but not dust

just made a brush really low opacity over everything and made it an oragnish color

[meager lion]

Ooooo the blur does help the composite

[meager lion]

Ahhh I see!

[toxic dome]

hold on ima do what you said and add more blur to the sun

[limpid condor]

shi been a long time

since ive designed somethin for fun

[meager lion]

Yoooo it's so fun act

Hope u can do so sometime soon

[limpid condor]

ye

gotta steal some ideas now

[meager lion]

HAHA

Hell yea

[toxic dome]

chat i have to stop editing and go to work ☠️

[meager lion]

LORD yeah bro do that don't push requirementss ._. Always sucks tho cuz the editing is 😤🔥

[toxic dome]

@meager lion ngl i tried making this idea (tv buried on a beach during sunset with soemthing playing on it) a while ago but failed horrendously like it literally looked awful, didnt have any ideas so i tried it again and it looks better now

[meager lion]

Ahhh I see! I'm happy about the improvements, like idk about ur original image but this one feels sm stronger as a composite

[toxic dome]

i agree

first time ive been proud of myself while photoshopping, like seeing genuine improvement

[limpid condor]

how much time did it take u to colorize ur ui?

[meager lion]

Yooo btw 1 thing I noticed about the tv, the shadows would be a lot stronger from that big & close of a moon/planet/sun! U could make the Tv black parrs darker along w/the shadows!

[meager lion]

Les goooo 😤😤

[meager lion]

I wanted to ask that too! How'd you do the purple outlines? @toxic dome That'd be so nice for me to incorporate

[toxic dome]

i just downloaded some file and changed the photoshop file

[meager lion]

Cuz sometimes I click on the wrong layers n it's jus 😭

[limpid condor]

i saw an yt tut but thought it would take 30mins or sum

[toxic dome]

u could do any color pretty sure, my fav is purple so i chose purple

[meager lion]

Oooo sick

[toxic dome]

mine took like 7

[meager lion]

Ok I'll try it out

[toxic dome]

it’s basically just replacing a file

[toxic dome]

i think red would look the best

alr i gtg cyall later

[meager lion]

See you!

[tight marten]

Anyone help me figure out how to make a yt banner that fits on all devices, cuz when I try and make one it has so much empty space on TV, and is so zoomed in on phone that it looks like crap

[limpid condor]

make everythin in 2560x423

later

put it in 2560x1440

@tight marten

[toxic dome]

Hey everyone. Could you help me?

I want to make my logo be puffed. Like be more 3 dimensional

Could you give some of tutorials of how to make it in Photoshop?

I want to use it on mockup

[tight marten]

thx for tip

[mighty dragon]

Gave +1 Creative Carma to @limpid condor (current: #429 - 3)

[tight marten]

ill try that

[meager lion]

Maybe a drop shadow?

But cool logo!

[toxic dome]

like this&

?

[meager lion]

Ohhh no I meant to the original logo! But tbh idk how to make it look 3D on black merch ._.

Hope u figure it all out tho!

--

Hey guys, I wanted to ask which version y'all think is better about my piece regarding Drake & Kendrick Lamar's beef!

Which one helps support the imagery best?

Or overall feels better as a composite

Inspo's from Temi Coker's A Poster A Day series: S1 #50

Also any suggestions would be great! This is my nxt post for my IG account too, I recently hit 50 followers too!! It went up to 57 the same night I celebrated HAHA 💛

[toxic dome]

is he supposed to be a paintbrush or an airpod case

☠️

[toxic dome]

first one is better

[meager lion]

He's supposed to be a haircomb!

A beard comb

👀

[meager lion]

Tyyy!

[toxic dome]

ohhhh got it

[meager lion]

Nice! Tyemm

Tysmmm*

[toxic dome]

hello

can someone help me please i spend 1 hour and i still cant figure out why its not working

i cant make custom shape

of the bubbles it wont let me

its only showing 1 eclipse

I still cannot make effect like in the second image

i dont understand how humans do this tbh you want to learn it you follow the video piece for piece and it still doesn't work

[wooden oak]

It looks like a few of those ellipses are "Paths" and not "Shapes". Change this to "Shape" Mode...

Paths doesn't render. Shapes can have attributes like fills and strokes.

[toxic dome]

can anyone of you tell how to add soft edges and texture like in that image?

[terse jetty]

You need to add drop shadow and not inner shadow

[terse jetty]

The drop shadow effect won't appear on a fully black background

You can maybe change the background color to dark grey

or You can try bevel&emboss options

[toxic dome]

and how to make edges be soft and puffed

same as texture

[toxic dome]

ty d humann i firgured somwething out

im just trying to make a simple ass logo and its so difficult for me

like what is this software

im trying to add text and there is infinite text at the bottom that i cannot remove

[wooden oak]

You seem to be using a Text Box and its inserting some placeholder text. You can remove that in Preferences if you don't want that loaded in by default. Main Menu: Edit > Preferences > Type... "Fill new type layers with placehoder text" (untick that checkbox).

Also, if you just want one line of text, just tap once with the Type Tool and type in whatever letters. Don't drag out a text box.

[toxic dome]

sometimes i really think i am braindead

[wooden oak]

You'll probably want to add a Bevel & Emboss as well as a Drop Shadow to the letters...

[wooden oak]

The reason the "PUFF" example looks so good is because there are nice hefty letters and there is some surface area to really show off the texture. Your lettering is somewhat light and spindley in comparision. Still do-able but I don't think it works as well on these letters.

[toxic dome]

could you give a template or show me the options you did?

I just have photoshop 2020

[wooden oak]

Here is my Photoshop file. Feel free to use it...

[toxic dome]

thank you

[wooden oak]

The texture is much more visible on thicker letters. On thin shapes, it doesn't work as well.

[toxic dome]

I saw it

[wooden oak]

Super. Good luck with it.

[toxic dome]

what is this

i remove background they take my logos head

can someone show me how to paint in the section

and then i think im finsihed

would appreciate

cabe5a

im trying to drop color with dropper tool no work

[terse jetty]

@toxic dome I've finished the island for the design , And yeah it was made from scratch and i don't know why

I Feel like wasting time but I don't like using ready to use assets

[toxic dome]

alright dude u didn’t have to mog me ☠️

it’s really good

well done lol

[terse jetty]

Thanks !

[mighty dragon]

Gave +1 Creative Carma to @fleet grove (current: #136 - 11)

[terse jetty]

It was made from those : )

[wooden oak]

If these aren't "ready to use assets" then what would they be called?

You didn't make them yourself.

[terse jetty]

I mean like grabbing the assets and blending them in the image and don't change any thing in them

I've changed the shape of the rock even the grass you wouldn't tell that it's from this image if I didn't send it

And yeah you're also right about they are still "ready to use assets" .

[wooden oak]

I think too many people around here are concerned with "making something from scratch" when I don't think they really know what that means. :)

If you're going to do a photo-bash "from scratch", you should be going out and capturing the photos yourself and chopping them up. Like, you actually create all of the assets that go into the composite.

[terse jetty]

You think that I'm going to create a 3d model to just make a photo manipulation

: )

[wooden oak]

No. But don't think you're creating something "from scratch" when you didn't create the images themselves. :)

[terse jetty]

And i think this is still " From scratch " when I've blended over 4 images and changed the whole shape of them and added textures to create a whole different object

[wooden oak]

I'm not against using any assets in a composite. But I see a lot of people around here hand-wringing about how things are created. People should worry more about the resultant image. Not so much where the assets come from.

[limpid condor]

that would be fun

shi i should try

[terse jetty]

Or this is what " from scratch " means in photoshop

[limpid condor]

taking photos myself and making somethin from it

woah

[terse jetty]

Neither me

[limpid condor]

u didnt render out the rock urself so that aint from scratch

eitherway

couldnt care less about that

pretty cool idea u got there

[terse jetty]

I know and yeah you got a point actually

[limpid condor]

btw u should download some grass brushes if u havent

they look nice af

yk when u blend in stuff

[terse jetty]

I have but I'm still in the blending process didn't finish yet

[limpid condor]

gotchu

[terse jetty]

Maybe one day but I'm still too lazy to do that

[limpid condor]

but how insane it would be to finish a project like that

[terse jetty]

Yeah actually I've realized now that it ain't really "from scratch" you're right about that , I should've described it "Original artwork" or "Heavily modified" instead

Thanks for the note guys ! ❤️

[limpid condor]

nah

[wooden oak]

I'm not bashing on anyone specifically. However, a lot of people seem to have this purist attitude about image composites and its somewhat wrong-headed. While its respectable to try and do everything yourself, its often not practical to shoot every photo yourself or create 3d models when you only need a small portion of it for an image. The goal is to realize your vision; to think up an idea in your head and then to pull it out of your head and put it into pixels. Also to create something that looks good. You shouldn't be as concerned if some portion of it comes from a stock photo or A.I. generated pixels.

[terse jetty]

Got your point !

[limpid condor]

have u made any projects from scratch?

[wooden oak]

If someone does attempt to do everything themselves, e.g. go out and shoot all the photos, use them as textures on 3d models that they build, set up the models, light them, render them, tweak them in Photoshop, they better look awesome after all of that work. Otherwise it can be extremely discouraging.

[wooden oak]

I've done some 3D projects where I've attempted to build "everything". Its a lot of work!

Some composites as well.

[terse jetty]

Nope I'm so lazy to do all of that , I prefer not "from scratch" work 😂

[limpid condor]

mm

i was wondering what i wanted to learn next

ui or 3d stuff

still havent made up my mind

[terse jetty]

maybe I'll try to do this one day , But I don't have the power yet

[terse jetty]

What is your passion ?

[limpid condor]

just designing ig

[lavish solstice]

what shall i take down or show less off?

[terse jetty]

Both industries are good but you choose what you like more

[limpid condor]

ig learning ui would be best for me

[terse jetty]

Then go for it

[limpid condor]

alright

[wooden oak]

Cool image. Was it flipped horizonatlly? Because he's driving on the wrong side of the road. :)

[lavish solstice]

lol uk roads bro 😆

[wooden oak]

Sorry. Kidding. I'm American. We drive on the right-hand side. :)

[lavish solstice]

u think the car matches the background well?

[wooden oak]

Yeah. It looks good. Was it not there before?

If you put that car into that road shot, I'd say that is a very successful composite. Good work!

[lavish solstice]

thanks bro

[lavish solstice]

are you an expert on photoshop?

because i want to send you a pic and see what you can do with it

[cunning tartan]

i may or may not deleted the basic photoshop Gradient Maps and i need the transparent one but i deleted it, how can i get the photoshop basic gradient maps

[wooden oak]

Well, I'm pretty good with image manipulation/photo-bashing. However, I don't really have time to work on something else at the moment. Particularly for purely speculative reasons. :)

[terse jetty]

Just finished , What do you think ?

And what should I name it 🙂 ?

[wooden oak]

Drag and drop this into your Gradients Panel.

[cunning tartan]

Thank you

[mighty dragon]

Gave +1 Creative Carma to @wooden oak (current: #3 - 2158)

[lavish solstice]

am not doubting you bro 😅 i know your good but i want some inspiration on this pic, i want you to add like a portal on this door make it seem it leads somewhere magical!

well not on it but you know what i mean

[wooden oak]

Looks cool. "Homestead Asteroid" ? "We Flew Too Close to the Sun" ?

[wooden oak]

You want to cut the door out and put some other sort of fantasy vista in there?

[lavish solstice]

yeah

but i want the entrace to it looking out this word maybe like particules or something

[terse jetty]

Oh nice name !

[wooden oak]

I think it might be cool. Its kinda small so whatever is inside the portal will need to tell the story in very slim margins. :)

[lavish solstice]

hmmm...u think its doable?

i mean you free to do whatever with the pic

[wooden oak]

This is my 5-min idea... Needs a lot of work though.

I've tried to lay down some broad strokes.

[cunning tartan]

thank you so much abt the gradient, it made my poster look 10x better

[lavish solstice]

it looks good bro

[wooden oak]

It doesn't reaally but you asked what I would do. That is one idea. :)

[lavish solstice]

am gonna do my own one

[toxic dome]

what drugs are you on

ur either on unreleased drugs or ur just not human no matter ur last name 💀

[wooden oak]

I'm on a drug called Life. Massive dose.

[toxic dome]

i need some 🤤

really well done for a 5 min project

youre creative as hell lol

[wooden oak]

I wanted to do more but I didn't have time. And I don't want to influence dude's project too much.

[toxic dome]

yeah fair point

[meager lion]

OOOOOOOOO

Maybe call it, "Greener on the Other Side?" @terse jetty

[meager lion]

Ooooo those r good too

[meager lion]

And whoaaa that's great for 5 mins

[copper spire]

Currently working on UI for the spectator view in a game I do some work for. Despite using the same shapes and stuff for this element, I'm struggling to make it look solid and consistent with the rest of the UI so far. Was curious if anyone had ideas on how to improve it a bit?

[obsidian ingot]

anyone knows how can i get these font type?

[rustic latch]

hey guys, what do you think?

[wooden oak]

The layout overall looks nice. Classy. However, I'm not fond of the font choice for "Cheesecake." :)

[rustic latch]

hmmmm

what styledo you think would look nice?

I was going for the classy look, however maybe its a bit too serious

[wooden oak]

Classy is the right mindset for the layout. Did you try other fonts there?

[rustic latch]

that looks so nice!

I just used the first serif i saw

but that makes a huge difference

crazy

[wooden oak]

That is Cinzel Bold

[rustic latch]

very nice, just found it on dafont

thank you 🫡

[wooden oak]

There's a slight tweak in Tracking so the letters have some breathing room. Being ALL CAPS.

Just a suggestion.

[rustic latch]

looks very clean

chef kiss

[trail gyro]

smas- I mean DAMN that looks tasty

[rustic latch]

lmfaooo

[trail gyro]

That's a big ass lake

[mystic prawn]

Just abit the ones with abit of money live their

[trail gyro]

That's abit of a good observation mate

[gentle horizon]

Why is it so dark there?

[mystic prawn]

Had my settings at iso 100 shutter at 1/200 and it was about 9 at night probs why

And when it came out of photoshop it was darker for some reason

[snow condor]

Do share your views and leave an appreciation if you like it, thanks

[torpid crater]

Hello. This is something i have been working on. Feedback is appreciated. :)

[abstract oxide]

This looks great. Nice layout. Complimentary colours. Solid work.
I think you have too many fonts. Two, perhaps three, at max would be my suggestion.

[golden creek]

so im trying some food-cosmetic stuff and need some creative ideas, i did a quick fitting, needs a lot of working but the shape is there

so this is basically just the fitting process, letting the correction and retouching aside, i think fitting the word "brilliance" would be cool, but idk where and whats the best font, any creative ideas would help a ton

[lavish solstice]

broooo check this out

[wooden oak]

I like it. However, I might frame it a bit differently. Also, she's definitely the focal point in this image so that should be reinforced with the composition and some selective lens blur.

I cropped it to 2:3 and used the Rule of Thirds. We make sure that she hits on one of those points in the RoT Grid.

Just some suggestions.

[wooden oak]

The obvious location in this layout would be in that empty space toward the bottom of the design. I'd probably choose serif fonts. Something classy that matches the subject matter. I'd darken that area as well so that text stands out against the image.

[next barn]

took some inspiration from D Human, added a tower light instead of that building

im thinking about adding another vehicle to the left or maybe a fence or something to fill that empty space up

how we feeling about it so far chat

[wooden oak]

I would work on the narrative. Tell a story with the image. Perhaps put something in the spotlight. A person or a thing. Its an intense scene. A dystopian environment. Everything is destroyed. Perhaps irony would work here, e.g. one beautiful flower growing out of the ground. Or a scared puppy. Work the sympathies of the viewer somehow. :)

[terse jetty]

I also prefer that the lights should be more softer than that

But overall I like it

[terse jetty]

A flower growing out of a destroyed road , That's a pretty weird suggestions

But I don't know why I liked it

[next barn]

yes so i was gonna go with a armed post apocalyptic soldier either hiding behind another object near the vehicle by the spotlight or him just standing in the spotlight because he got caught

[next barn]

I’ll definitely dabble around with it

[wooden oak]

That seems too obvious but you do you. :)

[next barn]

think i should do a deeper meaning ?

[torpid crater]

Thanks. I really appreciate your feedback. I didn't realize I'd used so many different fonts, but I see I've used 5, which as you said, is not ideal. I will get it fixed, and will take it with me going forward.

[mighty dragon]

Gave +1 Creative Carma to @abstract oxide (current: #17 - 125)

[next barn]

hmm

[wooden oak]

Its up to you. Its your piece. It should be meaningful to you.

I'm just offering suggestions.

[terse jetty]

What about a sniper guy in this tower aiming for a man standing in the spot light ?

Or you know what , It seems strange when I read it again just ignore it : )

[abstract oxide]

Thank you. Good to hear that might help. Best of luck with the project.

[mighty dragon]

Gave +1 Creative Carma to @torpid crater (current: #904 - 1)

[wheat sigil]

Is it me, or black and white are weird?
Maybe I should do more greyish letters, or more greyish blacks?

[wooden oak]

This is what I was talking about yesterday, i.e. trying to build a narrative using imagery. Telling a story, establishing visual interest, creating tension, etc.

[terse jetty]

@wooden oak Tried to do smth similar but I think it's not that good

[wooden oak]

It looks cool. However, I'm not sure if the environment matches up well with the emoji.

[terse jetty]

I thought that too , I was going to make the hearts glowing , And with the red light reflection on the ground I think It will be good

I'll be sure to try that when I got the chance

[wooden oak]

I don't mean the lighting. I mean the visual aesthetic, "the feeling" of that emoji which is bright/happy in that dark and somewhat spooky environment.

[terse jetty]

Yeah I know what you meant

I was just thinking that It will good when It's weird 🙂

But maybe I'll change the emoji

I think the sad emoji will look good

Or this emoji -----> 😞

[wooden oak]

These look pretty good. @novel comet is better at design for marketing campaigns and could probably give better advice/suggestions than I could.

[novel comet]

Yeah, I've seen you post a few of these in the past - Not bad but I think the descriptive copy below shouldn't be bold like the heading.

@wheat sigil

Also, do you need to show 20% AND the price reduction? - Surely the 20% at this point is kinda obsolete?

[novel comet]

Yeah, day looks a bit miserable for such a cute item... - go for the beach!

(preferably without such badly drawn hands!)

[terse jetty]

Yup I'll try the bright theme , maybe in sand

[next barn]

yes this was the direction i was going

i was already prototyping where the vehicle should be

[next barn]

this gave me a more understanding thou, especially the rocks and rubble at the bottom left great add to make it more immersive of her hiding

question, where do you get your assests from? @wooden oak

[wooden oak]

Everywhere. I take my own photos, I use stock imagery, I generate imagery using AI. I manufacture assets from all of the above. (Manufacture, as in paint and manipulate pixels.)

[next barn]

Ah AI, did not know it could be used as a strong tool like that

is it an plug in for adobe or you use like midjourney ?

[wooden oak]

I use every AI tool and algorithm that is generally available to the public. Then also some proprietary tools and utilities that myself and friends have created.

[next barn]

thank you, i was wondering how you was finding some stuff so quickly sometimes

like the car facing a certain way

gonna try some other stuff out and post some more results later on

thanks for the tips

[wooden oak]

I have a massive library of images. When I don't have something, I will create it or generate it.

If its something that cannot be acquired by any other method, I will try to photograph it myself.

Sometimes I begin with photography that I capture and then manipulate.

[next barn]

sounds good, gonna try out the Generative Fill and some other stuff i found

glad i went this route instead of just copying and pasting the tutorial lol

[wooden oak]

Tutorials are great. However, its always better to take them in a different direction. You learn more and the results are your ideas and not solely being dictated by the author of the tutorial.

[wooden oak]

I'm glad you took the initiative! It will pay off as you develop your skills.

[wheat sigil]

They want it like that, discount precentage and old price too.

And it is kinda like fast Gonzales job.
I do like 50 of these daily.
I am trying to get used to dark system of such design, but I think I should stop using #000 and #fff

[novel comet]

What are you using to batch process them all?

[wheat sigil]

I save PSDs as I work, and then I use image processor, JPG, 12 quality.

[novel comet]

You could build using indesign and create using a datamerge.

e.g. - import an excel document that contains product name, price, description etc

same way companies produce x100 different business cards in one hit.

[wheat sigil]

Interesting. I dont know how that works, and I use InDesign a lot.

[novel comet]

It's the way I do certificates when a client needs 200 different names, each with their own award, title and signature added to it.

[wheat sigil]

Im going on pc to try this

[wheat sigil]

Amazing.
Just trim transparent pixels on each product image and make it fit the rectangle.
Place image links in csv, specifications and boom.

Thank you for this.
If I am in hurry I will 100% use this.

[golden creek]

tysm, darkening the area was a huge tip, my text was not standing out at all

im using cinzel atm like you said a serif font fits like a glove

[jolly rain]

i like the style, what exactly are you wanting to do? shadows or something more

[small basalt]

basically yeah and well, make them look more inline with each other

while still btw using different eye styles so yeah it is more of a creative question than a technical one

[jolly rain]

and your focus is the robot with glasses? or the far right

[small basalt]

far left

main char is the one on the middle

I’ve done a lot of anime designs back in the day, the text could definitely use some work, the background is okay but the placements of everything seems off

I’m not sure if I can post links in this channel but I have some tutorials on headers and banners that covers that stuff to get you more head on with the topic

clean! but in my opinion the rocket ship seems kinda small?

[austere lotus]

i kinda gave up on it because i couldnt find one that i liked, couldnt even find a realistic one

[next barn]

don’t give up on it

trust me, fight through that struggle and finish that project bro! You can replace the rocket ship maybe ? With someone else ? Maybe that robot that be on the moon

really? thank you

the dog mask gave me some trouble

somehow turned this image into that

[terse jetty]

One thing that I'd suggest is the back of the dog is more darker than the back of the astronaut

[trail gale]

waiit you drew it

or

[austere lotus]

i removed the bg of the image and removed the womans face, and then turned the mask horizontally and warped it to match the shape of the face

[terse jetty]

Oh that's weird 😂

[trail gale]

Bro your literally almost a full on professional

😭

I wish i could do sh like that

[austere lotus]

nahh im still new

i wasn't even finish typing omg lol

you replied 5 seconds after my message lol

the palcement of the characters seem okay, the "VS" sign with the effect in the back could get replaced

the thumbnail is not very clickable i could say, maybe try a different style, different ways to do it, i made thumbnails back in the day

try to include some glo

its many ways and stuff to edit that thumbnail but i hope my info helps

This is my first project in Photoshop, can you give me Some feedback?

[next barn]

just testing out if i put a soldier here the image of the soldier was not HD so its just a place holder

[terse jetty]

It looks cool

for the positioning in the design

But I think the blending needs more work

[next barn]

yeah so i replaced it

i am working on blending a new one thats more high deff

about to work on a better shadow and make him look more defined onto the gound

does he look like hes making contact with the ground? any idea around this?

[terse jetty]

Technically the light should be touching only his head and some specific parts of the hand and leg

So the shadow feels strange to be that big

Also he should be darker than that I think

[granite shadow]

Looks nice . Tell me more about it

[next barn]

also added fire, and some light source from the fire that goes onto the truck side and coming from behind the car also, and a puddle on the floor

what i got so far with the project, still need to add something in the spotlight, add some smoke for the fire and around the surrounding area, and need to clean some stuff up, im gonna take a stop here, any feedback i would love to hear ! thank you and goodnight guys ❤️

[boreal canopy]

Any feedback? I went for like a vintage look

Hey, I am working on a wanted poster for a cosplay. I came up with this, the Grey box indicating on where the pictures should go. Any feedback is appreciated, I want to make this look as good as possible, be straight up with me.

[novel comet]

Presumably a star wars / cyber / Mass effect theme?

[distant garden]

Yes, the game takes place in sort of a space/fantasy setting, I looked online for some inspiration.

[novel comet]

Um, since you're after genunine feedback, I'm not convinced -partly because I know how poor it will likely print out.

What are you going to do with it? Print it and take it with you?

[distant garden]

No, it's not going to be print out. Just put up on Instagramm and other social medias.

If you think I've made trash, tell me, but please tell me why it's trash.

[novel comet]

I think the gold colour you're going for, looks more brown?

brb

[still field]

Wip update

[distant garden]

What do you think of this version ?

[novel comet]

Nicer! - sorry had to go to make food for my girls. - I think a huge part will be dependant on the image used too

Like I'd have gone for a slightly different futuristic neo "datapad" look...

[distant garden]

Don't worry! I would probably have gone for a datapad based look if I could. This is my first time seriously using photoshop, I think the idea is cool but I am totally lost on how to add depth, will take me some more time to get there :).

[novel comet]

Yeah. It's a big ask!

[distant garden]

Anything else you would recommend I could change given my opportunities ? Once I am done with exams I'lltry to get further into photoshop and editing.

[tough socket]

Hello jojo.
This remembers me the frist movie posters i did for indie movies

I can say one or two things that maybe can help you.

Frist- When you add puddles and reflective materials, always remember to make the color and light match, for example that puddle you added, in my opinion could reflect more of the sky, , you can also add more mud and reflectivness, in the floor, then you can also add reflected fire, wich gives more texture to the scene.
Second- The fire, remember that when you have fires, the shadows close to it, will be very harsh and long, it also would help to give a orange bloom to the smoke when you add it.
Third- remember to add shaddows in the soldier, and specialy, the lower vignete, you want the attention on the soldier, so you could add silhouette to it, by expanding the light from the search light, and then, maybe with other fire, or reflected light, you can create a sort of halo only in the upper part of the soldier.
4- The sky, can be a litle more busy, you can add some zeppelins with search lights, a bit like that old batman cartoon intro, or a couple of birds flying away, just to add a bit more texture to the sky

5- you can also add some fire or more damage to the buildings behind the main action

6- the color scheme, being blues and oranges, its a good mix, but you can in some areas turn the blue into a more greenish tint, before fading to black, this can create a better sense of depper shadows in the cold areas

Im pretty sure, you already though about many of these things, as your work is still in progress, and many of these things are steps more for the end part of the edit

Hope it helps

[subtle saffron]

How to improve this

[sacred goblet]

Any feedback ? Its my first project

[cosmic brook]

I feel like the figure’s shadow is too long. To cast a shadow like that, the sun would be very low in the sky, and the rest of the scene doesn’t sync with that. Good work though. Keep it up 👍

[subtle saffron]

thanks

[mighty dragon]

Gave +1 Creative Carma to @sacred eagle (current: #905 - 1)

[sacred eagle]

also you should make the light point towards the bottle instead of just the entire scene being lit up the same

[subtle saffron]

i didnt added any light anywhere, could u please me to correct it, as i am new

[fair granite]

SO nice

[sacred eagle]

I'll try something out in an hr I'm busy rn

[subtle saffron]

no problem, thank you so much for telling me my mistakes

[next barn]

in my opinion, i think it’s solid, straight to it, mockups are clean, and the website is straight forward and easy to navigate through

if you wanna add more you could do like a different selection of clothes, you know like have them organized under “shorts” “hoodies” “shirts” maybe add some more graphics to the back of the white background and blur it out to make it come to life more, overall i like it though

[sacred eagle]

heres a simple addition, but another problem is the actual composition.

the placement of each graphic do not compliment each other very well

viewers naturally read what has the bigger size first, along with reading from top to bottom, so i recommend putting the drink in the center, and changing the size of the graphic in order of whats more important.

also try to match the lighting of the bottle with the background

[subtle saffron]

@sacred eagle Thanks for the reply, with a clarification regarding the design principles, I really appreciate it

[sacred eagle]

@subtle saffron if you can change the ratio of the actual poster to be more height than width instead of it being 1:1 then putting the graphics from top to bottom would make more sense by the way

[subtle saffron]

@sacred eagle I took the size 1080px by 1080px, what dimensions you suggest

[sacred eagle]

@subtle saffron whats the poster used for

[subtle saffron]

I am a beginner, saw the tutorial and tried it, without thinking about all this😔😔

[sacred eagle]

so its just an example

?

if so then it doesnt really matter, but in the future learning about compositions is key if you want to product advertisements

[abstract oxide]

You've got some great elements here and your colours and contrast are great. Nice work.

[abstract oxide]

For me your backgrounds overpower the products. Perhaps make the bottles larger. You could also perhaps replace part of the background with a big block of solid colour.

[tough wadi]

[abstract oxide]

No worries. Thank you.

[mighty dragon]

Gave +1 Creative Carma to @subtle saffron (current: #906 - 1)

[abstract oxide]

I think you could still use this background but personally I would make the bottle larger and surround it by something like a large glow to help it stand out from the background.

[abstract oxide]

I like it.
Personally it feels a little busy. I think removing a few elements would actually make this design stronger and more engaging.

[abstract oxide]

Looks cool. Can you provide some context?

[subtle saffron]

Ok, got ur point

[abstract oxide]

For a first project this is amazing. Congratulations.
I would explore some different crops. Perhaps one that takes out a little of the sky.

[abstract oxide]

You might want to look into the “rule of thirds” This is where lines such as horizons are placed along the thirds of an image and main elements are placed at the intersection of different thirds. Placing your character at such an intersection could help strengthen the composition.
Again, great work.

[abstract oxide]

Cool

[sacred goblet]

something like this?

[abstract oxide]

If you are wanting your character at the intersection of a vertical and horizontal third I think you are off a little.

[mystic prawn]

Just a wasted shot I got while doing some pics for farmers field to check for crop destruction just wanted to see what you guys thought about it as I also run an instagram account and only like to put best of the best on it

[slow sparrow]

Any feedback to improve next time?

[abstract oxide]

It’s a great shot.
Vignette size and darkness is an extremely personal choice. For me the upper corners are too dark and fall off too quickly.

[abstract oxide]

Is this the original crop? If not, would you be willing to post the original?

[abstract oxide]

Nice composition.
The moon is very bright in comparison to everything else. I appreciate that this is a night scene but I would raise the highlights at least in a few small areas just to help balance the scene a little more.

[abstract oxide]

An extremely rough example

Is the galaxy ok? I winged it and dont really know if it turned out good

[abstract oxide]

You are obviously going for something artistic here so it’s really personal choice.
Along with brightening a few patches of stars, I would also darken a few patches of sky to increase the overall contrast. Again, personal choice.

[toxic dome]

working on this project wanted some feedback

[hollow marsh]

PROBABLY PG-13 photo. This is for an Etsy someone selling earrings, would appreciate any kind of constructive criticism/feedback

[hollow marsh]

I think any kind of blurring the middle would improve it.

[tough wadi]

ive also told my client the same thing but he refuses that want to have thumbnail like that haha

[hollow marsh]

Variation #2

[cosmic brook]

If this is an ad to promote juice, the product needs to be the star of the show. I would reconsider it's placement in the composition (the rule of thirds is often mentioned in this channel). And even though the light source is above and behind the product, I would take some artistic license and brighten up the label. You want to viewer to have the image of that bottle etched into they mind. The swirling stream of juice is a nice idea, but think about how you might re-engineer it to avoid running across the front of the bottle. The overall effect is nice. Just needs a few tweaks.

[remote delta]

thanx @cosmic brook

[fluid patio]

[abstract oxide]

I feel your pain mate. We've all been there. Best of luck.

[abstract oxide]

If the distant city is in focus but the cards are not, shouldn’t the faces also be out of focus?

[abstract oxide]

Nice compositing. The shadow where the bottle sits on the ground is nice work.
For me the pieces of kiwi fruit in the swirl should be larger compared to the bottle.

[worldly zealot]

Thoughts on this shot/edit?

[supple turtle]

Hello everyone! Your feedback and comments on my new design are invaluable to me 🎉
** https://www.behance.net/gallery/204180577/NEOGAMES-Game-Shop-Design **

[gentle horizon]

Sorry, but that was actually my first thought.
😋

[toxic dome]

on the line?

[toxic dome]

the cards are falling

i might blur the background as a regular blur, the cards have motion blur tho

[hollow marsh]

Yeah, anything to help feather the edges of the transition in the middle

Is my amateur opinion

[toxic dome]

nah thats a good suggestion

[wooden oak]

The Joker and the Jack are different cards. Not the same. :)

[toxic dome]

ik 💀

it just felt weird to make harley queen and not make joker jack

[wooden oak]

Using that logic, the Joker should be King though.

[abstract oxide]

This is how I interpret the blurring. The cards appear to be generally blurred which suggests they are out of focus. If you want to create motion blur, perhaps only blur them vertically.

[toxic dome]

i did.💀

[toxic dome]

i might change it then

to queen and joker

[abstract oxide]

What filter did you use?

[toxic dome]

just regular motion blur

put it at 8 intensity

-85 degrees

which is vertical by slightly to the left

[abstract oxide]

One option would be to use an even stronger blur on a duplicate of the cards. You could then use blending and masking to have the blur stronger in particular areas more than others such as the trailing edges.

[warm loom]

Any possible thoughts on this? quite new to photoshop and excuse the quality getting downgrade

[terse jetty]

It's looking good for a new user , The only that I'll mention is that the shadows are too wide in my opinion

[next barn]

I agree

I love the color scheme though

The blur effects on the text in my opinion is kinda throwing me off a little but that’s just me!

Other than that i think it’s solid so far

[terse jetty]

And one other thing I would recommend is to make the player faded from below instead of this hard edge

[pastel linden]

I cut out an image of a tomato and edited it on to the cutting board but it feels out of place somehow. How can this composition be improved?

[tame shale]

made this graphic shirt design for my friend any feedback?

he wanted the full name but I dont think it fits well

[toxic dome]

it feels like it’s there

but it also feels flat in a way

[pastel linden]

yup thats what it is

ill have to figure out how to prevent that

[toxic dome]

myb for not really helping

just what i felt

[pastel linden]

no no that helped

[toxic dome]

i’ve gotta say

the lighting definitely feels off

[pastel linden]

i couldnt put my finger on what the issue was but that got it

[toxic dome]

feels like a kitchen light overtaking the entire image

then there’s a random shadow that shouldn’t really be there

seems like there’s 2 light sources

but the lighting would still be off if there was

[pastel linden]

i see what you mean

the shadow is completely different from what the cutting board's casts 😆

[barren lion]

hey chris do you think you might be able to help me with a problem I'm trying to solve. Total photoshop noob here.

[pastel linden]

yeah just a sec

u can dm me

[pastel linden]

I may have just been doomed by the cutting board image

the shadow seems too big and too small and too dark and too light no matter what i do

[turbid ember]

rate the thumbnail

the title is "TRYING FACELESS CHANNEL FOR 30 DAYS"

[raw wadi]

It’s looking a lot better. If it were me, I would add a little edge, highlight on the green stock towards the light source and extend the soft shadow more towards the bottom right hand corner of the board. Perhaps also add a slightly brighter, soft highlight on the top edge of the tomato towards the light. That being said, at this point, it all gets a bit subjective 🙂

[spiral tendon]

Rate?

[raw wadi]

I like it! If there is one thing that catches my eye, it’s that the background blur is uniform across the whole street scene. if this were a real photograph with depth of field, the foreground would be less blurred and the background further away buildings, more blurred 🙂

bro can you rate my thumbnail or can you give any suggestions abou it

[spiral tendon]

I would personally look into improving the light sources and highlights. + Thumbnails are supposed to be creative and eye catching not realistic, so do what you want and be creative. Unfortunately, I'm not qualified to give advice for a thumbnail design so take it as my personal opinion. That's all that i can give right now, but if i find more flaws then ill be happy to update my advice.

I have no skills in thumbnail design, so not really the person to rate your work.

Hey friends! 👋

I’d love your constructive feedback on my latest design. I'm still a beginner, so any tips on how to improve would be awesome. This is just a practice piece, but if it turns out great, I might use it in my portfolio. Thanks a ton! 😊

[abstract oxide]

Very nicely done. You’ve come a long way very quickly.
I like the thin elegant font you’re using. However, I think it might be a little hard to read in the lower left corner.
I appreciate that the discount offer is meant to draw the eye but for me it is too dominant compared to everything else.
Again, great work.

im having a hard time trying to read the bottom left text , it might not be same case for everyone

[odd flame]

random chain on top and bottom was that necessary?

[odd flame]

and the distance between them does not feel consistant

[odd flame]

i like this compared to the other one , cant seem to find any fault tho great work

[native urchin]

Why is there a pointless cloud in the bottom left

[spring sequoia]

thats a good question

[native urchin]

I would recommend flipping it so that the cloud is covered where the time would be on thumbnails

[spring sequoia]

actually, there was an text on center

but i wasnt able to find the right font

so i just gave up, and removed it, filled its place with another thing

[native urchin]

but it looks good. I would click it

[spring sequoia]

thanks brother

[native urchin]

yes

[tough wadi]

Rate this thumbnail design that i completed just now

[abstract oxide]

The colour, contrast and individual elements are all excellent.
Personally I would try and simplify the design a little by removing something (if you can).

[abstract oxide]

Both designs look great. Nice work.
I feel like the darker green version is slightly too "heavy". Perhaps raising the mid tones and highlights a touch could help.

[abstract oxide]

I like the black and white look. A few random thoughts…

• Update the Photoshop logo to the current version.
• Perhaps reduce the number of schematics and enlarge what remains.
• Is there any particular reason the head is cut out from the body?

[spring sequoia]

as i said before, i made this design, few years ago

ill fix it recording to your thoughts.Thanks for the feedback.

[abstract oxide]

No worries and thank you. Best of luck with the edits.

It does not have to be 100% realistic, but any ideas to make it more pop up bit yet havinf these neon glows?

[abstract oxide]

Nice design mate.
Just raising the midtones and highlights a little makes a big difference.

[wheat sigil]

Thanks.
Yes, looks way better.
I was sure I am missing something, tired eyes.

[amber jackal]

hard to understand

[amber jackal]

an idea I have would be to show a full pc and then show a pc that's 30% full and put an arrow

With 3 secret ways underneath

[amber jackal]

Or a file with 1tb to 100mb

[vale parrot]

Yes

[tough wadi]

What i need to be remove ?

[abstract oxide]

Nothing specific. Everything individually is good. Just remember that the thumbnail will often be viewed much smaller.

[tough wadi]

I already tried it on a website where we can see all types large , small and very small but still understandable

[wheat sigil]

I think it's pretty eye catching for advertisement.
Any critics?

[slim quest]

Yeah it is, depending on how their used ofc but one thing you might do is make the colouring on the last one match the others more, to me it looks like that ones more on the blue side of purple then the red side of purple/pink like the others

Unless that was intentional ofc

[wheat sigil]

Thanks.
It is good to match as close it can be, but in practice, using camera raw at end is almost impossible to match it well, there is always something that will be different between images, except if you do not use camera raw on full image and take some elements after it is done, what I do for text usually, but still, depending on the background, some products on some images will be darker, more bluish, more redish and so on.
Well, nothing is perfect.

COMMERICALIZED USE (made by me)

[slim quest]

Yeah fs, that was legit all I could really see, they look really good!

[wooden oak]

I think there is too much noise in this image. Particularly on the bottle. Usually, with marketing photos, brand managers want the product, the labeling, the logo, etc to be crystal clear.

[vale parrot]

thanks!

[mighty dragon]

Gave +1 Creative Carma to @wooden oak (current: #3 - 2192)

[vale parrot]

this way better?

[wooden oak]

I think it looks better without the noise. Don't you?

You could probably add it to the text if you really wanted but I don't think it adds anything to the composition. Just my opinion.

[vale parrot]

this is actually pretty good

[toxic dome]

not too sure if the shadow is coming out right just wanted some feedback

i i copied the image, made it all black, added a layer mask and made it in overlay

[wheat sigil]

Shadow is ok.
Color balance is wrong.
Contrast is wrong.
Highlights should not look like paint.

[remote delta]

#📝project-feedback

[toxic dome]

💀

how do i make it better

[remote delta]

add optic rays

make that layer to screeen

add gussian blur to shadows

[toxic dome]

optic rays mean light rays right?

like light beams from the sun im guessing?

[toxic dome]

ooo thanks actually

[mighty dragon]

Gave +1 Creative Carma to @remote delta (current: #911 - 1)

added the blur to the shadow and looks much better

blurry bc its a screenshot btw sorry

[remote delta]

you need show highlight in object

[wheat sigil]

I know critics sucks to chew.
At the end of the day, you will find out I am your friend.

[toxic dome]

yeah i know dw, i’ll take any criticism on my art

you could say it’s awful and i don’t see that as a bad thing

lets me know i’m doing something wrong so i grow from that

[toxic dome]

i feel like the shadow is better now, highlights don’t look like paint although i’m not sure if they’re good rn, and wym by the color balance

[wheat sigil]

Are you working with mouse or graphic tablet?

First thing is that you have bad photos.
And that is a big no in design world.

[toxic dome]

mouse

myb for late response

[wheat sigil]

Use gradient map for highlights, you can't be precise with exposure, saturation or linear light adds with mouse.

[native urchin]

Thoughts on my highlights/Shadows for my subject. Does it look good? Should I try and remove the left side highlights to make it seem like light is gleaming from the right

[remote delta]

critic my work guys

[remote delta]

also these

[terse jetty]

I like it , You should spend more time on the light and shadows , also the mirrors

But overall it's not bad

[remote delta]

thanx buddy

[toxic dome]

blurry due to screenshot but i changed some stuff

[odd flame]

if you are trying to show mirror image left and right it is wrong, i think just put a normal bottle without the label to show its a mirror image

What should I change?

[frank phoenix]

maybe put the albums list into two lines so it looks less squished

[toxic dome]

you already asked this bro 💀

[native urchin]

nobody helps me @toxic dome

[trail gyro]

Relatable

It do be like that on discord man I'm sorry

But you gotta wait

[wooden oak]

I think you've captured the "creep factor" in the image. I'm not a fan of the text, the design and layout. I also don't really understand what I'm supposed to take away from the text. OK. He's a creep. Got it. What does "Satanist" and "18 year old GF" have to do with the rest of it? There doesn't seem to be any connection between the elements.

Is the name of the documentary "Creep" or "Satanist" or "18 Year old GF" ? If one of those is the main focus, then that should be most prominent. Right now they all seem to be competing for attention.

[native urchin]

hes a satanic predator/creep

Sinfernal Gaming | The Satanic Predator

is most likely going to be the title

[wooden oak]

Design elements should be appropriately sized based on importance... If "Creep" is the title then that should be larger. Other text would be smaller.

[wooden oak]

"Creep" is a better title "The story of a Satanic predator" underneath it. Just my opinion. Good luck with it.

[native urchin]

Ok

Thanks

[toxic dome]

mate to be honest , the font disgusts me , and i am pretty sure it does to most of others and i have no idea what are you trying to convey.

[native urchin]

Its supposed to be a typewriter font. for a scary vibe

like they do for crime documentaries

What fonts would you recommend?

[frank phoenix]

establish a hierarchy!

[toxic dome]

if this is used for subtitles in video, i kind of agree with your scary vibe, but on the thumbnail? a big no

[toxic dome]

you have to look it up yourself, mate. I havent worked similar types of work before

i will say one thing tho, this thumbnail need a clean finish

[remote delta]

what element shold i add

#📝project-feedback ' please give ur valuable feedback on my designs, thanks in advance

[bitter mulch]

Made a fanmade album cover for an artist i used to work with in 2012 but he no longer makes music. It was for a collection of all his tracks. Trying to expand into more realistic/surrealist concepts, but i would like some input and critiques. Thank you in advance. Also, the pictures used are either from png sites (copyright free/free to use) or adobe stock.

Looks good. Is it worth shuffling and scaling things a little to get that logo dead center?

[abstract oxide]

Generally this is great.
The white glow bottom middle draws my eye a little too much.
Perhaps make the product a little larger?

[abstract oxide]

Looks fantastic mate.
Yep, it’s just great.

hi, i feel like something feels unpolished about my design; any feedback would be very appreciated!

[tough wadi]

Nope i already tried it

[toxic dome]

looks great bro

if it was me i would change the font in the bottom and ad some sub - heading kinda ? idk tho this design looks neat , thats all

[frank phoenix]

aahh okay that sounds good

thank you very much

[turbid ember]

what do you guys think of this design

[storm mirage]

Tha looks rlly good mashallah

I reckon u should make the footer a little bit shorter

And the Amazon logo seems abit squished not sure tho I could just b bugging idk I’m not the pro lol

Some texture on the text would look good

What do you guys think of this

It’s a logo for a charity but something looks odd idk what

I’m going to change the fonts I think

Any font recommendations?? Something with an Arabic Middle Eastern style but professional

[raw wadi]

What catches my eye is, all the shadows have a soft feather edge, apart from those cast by the right hand

[storm mirage]

Yeh I’m not sure how to fix that because the right hand is joined to the left lmao

[raw wadi]

Well if it was me I’d seperate the hands and build back the left hand fingers under the right, then add back the correct looking shadowing.
Or select the right hand, inverse the selection and then paint in the fingers and shadows.

Just for fun. :)

Aye ai

Looks convincing asf tho

Wait

No that isn't

Nvm it is

[sacred eagle]

What'd u do to the photo

For the elements to stay the same

Tree mtn extension of the road

Or is that a completely new photo

I'm so confused

It's ai I know but

[wooden oak]

Its misleading. Its actually a few different images. Composited. The car and bg are based on the original.
