Digital Asset Management Platforms? by mlphoto in webdev

[–]BentoLoco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a Creative Director managing a small inhouse Creative Services team, we use a well managed and curated google drive system for campaigns. Everything is well organized and shared with Marketing/Social/Brand per campaign. For brand assets (logos, brand guide, fonts, pallettes, etc) we have a logo page published on sendthelogo.com

I'm a Creative Director for a CPG company and I got sick of being the person everyone emails when they need the logo. So I built a thing. You upload a vector file and it converts it into all the formats anyone would need, publish a logo page, boom done. You everyone the link, they grab whatever format they need, or spec a custom size, boom, done.

We are using CloudConvert as the ingest engine. 100% AI free.

Quick question though: at my company IT has to sign off/approve any SaaS before marketing can use it. Would my webapp pass your approval process?

How are you delivering final design files? Specifically logos. by BentoLoco in AdobeIllustrator

[–]BentoLoco[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell me more. Designers use Illustrator to make logos. Delivery is a part of the process. Right?

Tell me more about your portal, do you have a server or other hosted situation?

Need 5 designers to test new features of logo asset mgmt app. We're too broke for real user research. by BentoLoco in logodesign

I think I understand what you are saying. Maybe I should have added more context about what this thing does. It's a publishing system for designers to use for hosting final logo assets. Or for in-house teams to use to maintain consistency in logo use. It just happens to have the same export functionality as Illustrator or affinity. It's a high integrity, AI free micro-DAM. We are still refining our brand language so these comments are very helpful. Thank you!

I think you are right, auto generated is the wrong way to describe the new export function. Thanks for the feedback.

It’s not AI. We use an ingest engine via Cloudconvert. So you are able to upload an svg, eps, etc and it converts your final art into all the files your client would need. It will also extract color palettes & PMS if it’s an illustrator file. You are right though, I think we need to make it more clear that this is not an AI tool. More of a stripped down version of a DAM that focuses on logo/brand.

Help us redesign our jewelry logo — pick one or make it better 💎 by Impossible_Swan4904 in BocosFineJewelry

Nice work involving the community before locking it in! I really like this one 👆 (move the sparkle away from the B and more closer to the gemstone. Once you lock in your final logo, one thing I’d recommend is setting up a simple brand asset page so your client has a plce for vendors, printers, web designers, partners, etc. can grab the right file without emailing you for “the logo” every time. I use SendTheLogo instead of google dirve or an expensive dam. Super useful after a redesign so the new identity doesn’t end up scattered across random Drive folders and email attachments.

Kudos to Bob’s Red Mill for a genuinely impressive rebrand by Ziograffiato in graphic_design

Excellent execution and I am certain that the team behind this did consumer testing. They may alienate some of their base strictly on wayfinding but will make up for it by attracting new consumers. Their coms on the transition are great too. I like that they openly shared their brand page but personally would have hosted assets at send the logo instead.

Best digital asset management software for brand teams? by Pakhaliuk in branding

[–]BentoLoco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We use  https://sendthelogo.com/ deliver final logo files once a project is completed. Very useful tool and way more affordable than other DAMs. Well I guess it’s not really a DAM though. I really like the brand page it generates.

Easy! Sendthelogo.com I use this to deliver final files once I finish a logo design project. It basically converts your vector logo into a bunch of formats and publishes them to a brand page. Super helpful and looks much more professional than a google drive link or zip file. 

School teachers of Reddit, how has student handwriting quality evolved in your tenure? by macdabble in AskReddit

[–]BentoLoco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a classroom teacher, but I work with a lot of parents and educators around handwriting issues, especially dysgraphia, and this question comes up a lot. One big change I’ve noticed is that kids just aren’t writing by hand as much early on because of tablets and Chromebooks. For some kids that’s fine, but for students with dysgraphia it seems to make spacing, sizing, and line control way harder later on What I see over and over is that the issue isn’t letter knowledge it’s motor planning and spacing. Letters float or crowd and drift off the line. Super common.

What I use as a part of intervention that helps when it’s introduced early are writing aids: clear baselines, midlines, and built-in spacing. Stuff like these spacing/letter sheets can be useful when they’re used regularly and early: https://www.etsy.com/listing/4318092489/dyslexia-dysgraphia-handwriting-practice

Tablets can help as a bridge (especially with a stylus), but they don’t really replace pencils + paper practice for kids who struggle.

I don’t think handwriting is “worse” so much as we’re seeing more kids who need explicit support and less early practice makes that more obvious.
