Any input on this? It's going to be used as a graphic on my friend's blog and for their blog's FaceBook webpage.

The website in question is focused on gaming, so I thought a 3-D representation of pixels would be nice. I created the logo by rendering the basic structure in Google Sketchup then tracing the lines in Gimp.

The edges of the outline are a little sharp, but that's nothing that I can't fix. The only bad part about it is that when the resolution becomes too small, it looks markedly worse.

Just, in terms of being a logo, is this decent? I am open to ideas if you guys have any. Feel free to share design tips.

Evening /art/. Can I have some constructive feedback on my paintings? Always looking for ways to improve. All my paintings are acrylic on canvas. Thanks all!
>> No. 672
If you're creating fleshtones and wet surfaces that well with acrylics, I'd like to see how you can do with oils.

In other words, I have no criticism because that's an awesome painting.

In my opinion, there's something not right with the hand. It doesn't make any realistic sense on how the person holds the fish.

We're gonna start our first group art project guys!
This is based on an exercise/punishment my art teachers used to make me do.
It's called "Until it's Dry".
Materials:
*One (1) Bic pen
*One (1) sheet of paper (Min. 8.5" x 11")

Here are the rules:
Buy yourself a new bic pen. It doesn't matter what colour, but you can only used one. Get a sheet of paper, it can be any size you want, but I suggest 8.5" x 11". Then draw. There is no subject, so it doesn't matter what you draw but the whole page must be used. The entire page has to be used. Keep drawing until the ink in the pen runs out and it no longer draws anymore.

So, if tonight is the 21st, lets say the 31st is the due date and everyone who participates will post all our work in this thread and have a critique and praise each other.

Have fun!

It's disappeared man. Everyone these days (most of the newer generation) has no creativity because technology is doing everything for them. I am lucky enough to not be so cluttered with tech and now I'm the blackest of sheep.
TL;DR> Good, creative people are a dying breed
>> No. 671
>>670
Except for, you know, all the people creating art. And all the new ways that technology is able to contribute to the creative process. And how the internet has enabled people to disseminate their creative works freely and easily. Particularly musicians, who no longer need the backing of record labels to record music (all you need for a professional quality recording these days is a mixing/mastering software program, and a laptop) or disseminate that music (bandcamp, soundcloud, last.fm, myspace,facebook, etc). You're right though, nobody is creative any more, except for the people who are. Which is like totally different from like how things have always like been...

So, does http://yooouuutuuube.com count as glitch art? It's not exactly corrupted media, but it still fucks around with the format it was intended to be delivered in. I particularly like it with the duel scene from Once Upon a Time in the West.

Why hello. Guys, I'm an amateur grapihc designer, that is to say I've had the proper education but I lack that worthless piece of paper that says I've had the proper education.

With this in mind, how can I find any work? I can't just put some adds on the newspaper since people who look for graphic designers there are looking for "professionals" and of course that translates to "people with an actual title to their credit". And there are enough of them around here to keep me unemployed.

Basically: Is there a way in which I can advertise myself as a freelance graphic designer who doesn't play by the rules and is loved by the ladies? Maybe something by word of mouth? How could I go about making this happen?

Anyway sorry if it's a stupid question. I really want to work and I think I'm talented and educated enough. My only problem is that I didn't bother to graduate so I don't have an actual title.

Pic related, some stuff I did on my first year.
>> No. 319
I finished my course in Graphic Design, Web Design, Videography, Photography and Typography yet I still find it hard to come across work.

Best chance is to take the course again and actually get the 'worthless piece of paper'. It's not so worthless if you turn up to your job interview with one. If you turn up and your soon-to-be employer asks to see your 'worthless piece of paper' what are you going to do? All you can say is 'Oh.. I didn't actually get one of those'. He/she is just going to be thinking 'This guy is shit, there's loads of people out there who have a certificate.

I'm going to be graduating with an MFA next month and everything graduates and my teachers have told me agrees with this.
People who are going to give you money are going to expect results and they want to see evidence that you can produce them. A solid portfolio and happy previous customers does this more than a piece of paper.

Based on your image I would suggest a lot more practice before approaching customers, but if you're eager I would start hitting up any friends or contacts you have who may know local business owners or entrepreneurs who might want some work done. Find a restaurant with a shitty self-done menu or ads and offer to redo them.
I would suggest doing a few for free before approaching anyone asking for money.
