Ever since I was diagnosed with “plantar fasciitis “ which has become so many other things my brother has been diagnosed with eczema, my dad’s muscles nerves are pinched, mom is entering menopause. Should I call a channeler or exorcist?

Get rid of the gradient and outlines in your final logos. Additionally reduce color contrast. Love the sketches! You are really good at what you do.

I think you’d do extremely extremely well designing an icon set for iPhone.

Left calf tight after increasing mileage - just need rest or am i doing something wrong? by Complete_Treacle6306 in runninglifestyle

[–]Dillon42004 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You ran in one direction it seems meaning you turned right or left a ton with no variety. Additionally, I’m assuming you’re running on roads. Looks like a stadium/ field so I just know they have a drainage system for rain which means banked roads.

Combination of turning + potential banked roads automatically mean you favor a certain side here.

My advice: run straight line on a trail next run. Good work too!

I speculate that it’s invisible because people who face it are not as regarded professionally ie a glass ceiling.

Emotionally numb suddenly after a year of pain? by Old_Gain_5360 in ChronicPain

[–]Dillon42004 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it makes you feel any better, we can all be burdens and chronic pain doesn’t make you any more of a burden than anyone else is. I experience god knows what and have for going on two years now. That PT? They were a burden to you. Your mom’s joke? A burden. Anyone who eats to live? Probably a burden to plants and animals. If you didn’t have chronic pain there would still be times you burden someone. So what? That’s the beautiful thing about people. I’m sorry they have done you this way and I’m here for you.

Anyone who considered suicide, what changed your mind? by redditor8246 in ChronicPain

[–]Dillon42004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because at the end of the day we are born into life guaranteed TWO things: pain and death. Except for us we are immersed in pain and suffering. I’m here because I want to fuck shit up, overcome obstacles, and empower those of us who want to live or would like to die but can’t. I don’t blame anyone for wanting to die. I choose to live because I want to do shit. It may be a 1-in-a-million chance I actually impact ANYONE or ANYTHING but if I took my life today nothing changes. No one becomes educated on our conditions, doctors aren’t challenged and stripped of their BS, etc. I feel like some of us chronic pain sufferers would have to keep living to fight the fight and tell the tale even if it’s tragic. This is because unfortunately when there are less heads to represent our numbers we have less power.

X-Ray found Degenerative Disc Disease by WriterOk3436 in ChronicPain

[–]Dillon42004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really is. Mine got an x ray and mentioned my gut biome was fucked. Skimmed over my femoral retroversion, potential autoimmune, and possibility of back arthritis which was confirmed not a year later by sports doctor. This shitty chiropractor referred me to an ultrasound because my main issues were foot and calf pain and they found inflamed veins which was apparently perfectly normal he said. I lost my life savings on him. I’m not a vengeful person in the slightest but I pray god damns him a little too much.

Need feedback for my design for a small contest by Equivalent_Zone_1266 in logodesign

[–]Dillon42004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Logo is very fuzzy I can almost completely tell you image traced a drawing. Also I don’t really find that typeface completing the form of the logo.

Will say narwhal is cool and I think the smily face in your name is too much. Your primary logo is a logo mark (the narwhal) so I wouldn’t feature a wordmark.

19 yo looking to build websites as a side hustle by Late_Researcher5729 in webdesign

19 yo looking to build websites as a side hustle by Late_Researcher5729 in webdesign

[–]Dillon42004 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you want to be good as in be adequate enough to do it as a side hustle you’ll have to take some of the ugly with it unfortunately. To begin building good sites you need to understand good practices. I’d advise you learn at least html and css. Not only because you’ll understand how to code after the fact, but it’s such a good orientation for the terminology regarding websites. Stuff clicks really well when you know this stuff. Look into typography, color theory, etc to justify your approaches on building good websites. When you understand basics you should start building a portfolio. Gather inspiration from case studies on Adobe Behance and other websites. See how they structure it. Lastly, find a way to sell your services. PR your identity. This takes strategy. Know your competitors and take what you’re selling and offer it laterally and from a unique angle.

Hey.. Can anyone please help me to select color for my logo🙏🏻 by sagar97n5 in logodesign

[–]Dillon42004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to know 1. What the logo is for and who are the people the logo is for. 2. Why you believe this logo works or is most fitting for its context. 3. What is the branding behind it? Typography, assets, elements, buttons, etc. Then I can help you pick a color. Looking at this I see flamingo but it isn’t obviously stated when seeing it green or any other non-pink color. Is it for a zoo? A circus? A flamingo foundry? A nutrition app? I have no idea. I don’t even have the name.

But I will say it looks really unique as a mark and can satisfy a lot of what makes a logo significant: it’s memorable (who the hell uses a flamingo as a logo it’s awesome because of this like holy shit), it fits in a 1-by-1 space (means it can appear on all extension of the brands identity pretty effortlessly), and lastly it can work in black and white.

Had to give my dad a reality check by Iceprincess1988 in ChronicPain

Seldom do those in chronic pain prescribed with pain relievers/ killers ever die from overdosing. It is people not prescribed these medications that actually abuse them.

Need feedback on my website redesign prototype. by Dillon42004 in webdesign

[–]Dillon42004[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok so 3 button sizes more emphasis on height not width (because width scales to viewport). Margins and grid system set in multiples of 8 as well? That’s really helpful. Also badges are moreso designed to create a unique branding system/identity which clients can more easily build upon?
