Well I listen to what I find motivating or relaxing in my current mood.

Obviously it would be hard to suggest you music...seeing as everyone has there own taste and preferences. There isn't any graphic design working music. You just listen to what you like,

Anyone to answer your question.

I'm currently half way through a university project.
I'm making a social network that focuses on outfits, principally like instagram but to show off your clothes.

I've come up with a shitty name and shitty "logo". I thought the diamond (symbol of social status and style) could be a recurring theme on my site but I'm sure I can come up with something better.

What would /gd/ do?

I have an interview for my uni application in 4 days. What should I prepare for? And there's an exchange program to the UK for 2 months. I have a fear of flying and surviving in another country. Should I mention those?

bumpp, it's in 2 days now

I'm sure the exchange program isn't compulsory, it's likely to be an option you can take in second year. You can stay on there for the second semester, or you transfer to another country as part of the erasmus scheme. If it is, be thankful. The UK has some great design courses, I'm on one. Besides, statically speaking you're more likely to die going to the corner shop than on an aircraft.

Hello /gd/ first time posting here as /g/ recommended you guys.

I'm a former graphic designer gone programmer (mostly embedded electronics) and I would like to create a personal website to log my work, share a little about myself, and put things that shouldn't clutter up my resume.

I'm decent with software development but I was wondering if any of you could lend any design inspiration for personal websites. I would probably go with darker tones, and very minimal yet functional.

Check out wordpress themes focused on personal portfolios, maybe even themes designed for agencies. There are so many bloggers nowadays that you'll likely find at least 10 'best 50 portfolio themes' rankings in a minute. Great for inspiration.

Are you planning on developing the website yourself?
>>
>>268921
yes although I'm not sure how I feel about using wordpress.

I know some jobs demand wp experience, and its probably really useful - but I was going to build my backend from scratch for this. In either case I could still take inspiration from some wp themes however.

I am building everything myself. I have been learning full stack development for more advanced projects than this but I have yet to establish my online presence in the form of a portfolio. I feel its best to stop and do that before continuing...

Well, a big advantage of wordpress is how easy it is to add content. You're limited to what the theme creator designed (although with some freedom) but for something as simple as a personal portfolio I would highly recommend it. Mobile ready, plugin friendly, dynamic, ease of use, these themes were designed precisely for people like you.

Showing your skill in developing websites yourself would be more interesting for highly specific requests. No client will pay you to code something thousands of people have...

My 2 cents:

Are the red squiggle lights coming from the character? If so, make them larger the closer they are to the character. Right now it looks like it's coming from further back in the city. The Character looks very out of place and rigid, and the blurring of it doesn't suggest movement to me.
Also I looked at the top left corner first because it has the most contrast and I doubt that that is what you wanted the focal point to be.

Does anyone have a collection of fonts that are free to use commercially.
I plan on selling beer accessories on Etsy and don't want to use any fonts that will get me in trouble.

I have over 80k fonts but I'm not sure which are free to use.

I was wondering if there is a resource/zip file that has fonts that people can use commercially.

>what should be added/removed
first there's too much triangles going on. the ears should be smaller, the perspectve s mess up. the mouth shold be smaller. don't add shadows until you have the basic shape. also the stroke makes it look generic. try researchng for a fox in that pose and use it as reference.
>>
>>268582
thank you
>>
>>268583
I'm feeling this fox thugger!

Tweak it's right ear- looks like it's fused to the back of the head instead of the top

Thin the mouth so it looks slightly opened

Move the jaw shadow towards the right a bit- rn it looks like the jaw goes through the neck, but it does shows the presence of its snout so you figure that out

And just angle the right eye better

I really like it. Simple geometry looks nice as a more distinguished+slight vague object

This is a little class project I'm working on.

I'm struggling with the placement of the text beneath the title. I prefer the overall composition of the left one, but the text doesn't fit within the light beam so I moved things around on the right side.

General criticism also welcome.

I think the font doesn't go very well with everything. Maybe you should try a different font (a bolder, simpler one that stands tall and doesn't bend to the side), and use a different shade of red (if you really want to use red) for the "ABOVE" text. The two fonts are good on their own, but they don't go well together, try to balance them out with other fonts.

Also - why is the random light beam that's coming from the city directed at the UFO? Shouldn't the UFO be doing that? And if the beam really must be coming from the city at the...

I like the yellow - blue colors not usually used in this style, they really clash with the bulma and the plants. Also, the polo logo at the sides. But it lacks glow, its dense and gray, and the statue heads are too safe and cliché, maybe good for a first plane, but simple for a background. Playstation, dreamcast, pokemon and anime? The fact that your art revolves around all of those is the only reason I think you are autistic.
In the end, it´s all about mix and matching what shoudn't be, but the overall feeling...
