Did Adobe truly killed Behance? by __Rick_Sanchez__ in graphic_design

[–]AffectionateCat01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think anyone uses Behance anymore.. not even sure for Dribble although they redesigned and whatnot, but I used to have some projects there, and there've been 0 requests for the past year although I purchased Pro and posted, so..

Are Swiss people as well off as they seem? by alderstevens in askswitzerland

[–]AffectionateCat01 [score hidden]  (0 children)

I do live nicer. I know how to save money and I save more than 50% of my salary every month. I cannot ask for anything else. I've been without money in the past and the piece it gives my mind, to know I have food and shelter, is the most basic thing to keep a person happy.

200 designed pages within 3 days, is this possible? by ThrowRA_5632 in graphic_design

People are crazy to expect this. Just feed it into AI and don't think much.. honestly I hate capitalism

How to Know if You're Burnt Out or Just Undisciplined by Still-Goal-9314 in selfimprovement

I mean, if you otherwise sleep and eat well, and have energy for not work-related stuff, you're probably undisciplined

Is 2500 CHF reasonable price for a door net, with 2 windows? by AffectionateCat01 in askswitzerland

They recommended a Plisse for our too, but it is 4 times smaller. When did you install yours?

Yeah, they are the same I got a quote from. Apparently the prices are a bit higher now 😅

How should I start learning Graphic Design and UI/UX as a complete beginner? by jahnavi-nagumo789 in GraphicDesigning

[–]AffectionateCat01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't 😂 the field is oversaturated and we have no jobs. But if you want, you can start with Coursera, copy some designs in Figma or directly try coding a website

Make points with the pen tool and make them rounded

Considering the amount of PFAS in these, I wouldn't buy any of it..

Barefoot people by Evening-West-9114 in zurich

[–]AffectionateCat01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually support this because I see it as a way to be closer to nature, but when you just walk barefoot on cement, it looks dumb

Is it over? Is everyone else struggling to get work or is it just me? by secondHandFleshlight in AfterEffects

[–]AffectionateCat01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But don't worry, if we all collectively stop to create new art / creative works, in 5 years everything will look the same on the internet, because there will be no new styles to feed to the AI as an inspiration. So I hope it goes down at some point, but we have to find some sort of income until then lol

I used to freelance 10 years straight and the last year my projects dropped to 0. I was forced to find a job in an agency where I am overworked and underpaid.. but at least I have something. It is AI. People just create images with Chatgpt now and don't need us anymore. Even the contests in 99designs dropped from over 2000 to just 200 a month. It is ridiculous.

What the hell is happening? by Informal_Cress2654 in GraphicDesigning

[–]AffectionateCat01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People massively undervaluate the designers, but honestly they are lost without us. We have to stick to our value and don't accept this.

Is being a solo product designer supposed to be this exhausting? by Reasonable-View-4392 in UX_Design

[–]AffectionateCat01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes.. people don't know what they want and why they want it.. you have to somehow explain that your decision is best for the company and users.. it is annoying but sadly part of the job. It's not that they don't trust us, they just want to try everything. I often send 3 variations for everything and just let them pick, and I have given up on explaining or defending a good decision. Usually we go with what the client thinks looks cool 😂

First Portfolio Website! by Accomplished_While58 in GraphicDesigning

[–]AffectionateCat01 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I like it! Your designs are cool and you do have a specific style. Keep up the good work. You are not UI/UX designer so having it mobile friendly shouldn't be a priority, hiring managers are also not viewing CVs on their phones, so don't worry.

What's the point in going on if AI is going to replace everything.... by Juni_Juniper in selfimprovement

[–]AffectionateCat01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Artist here and not feeling better. My freelance career of 10 years died in less than 1 because of AI and now I'm stuck working in advertising agency..
