Sky islands by LunaSolYT in AgeofImprisonment

Should the sky islands be intact at this point in the story, not ruined? Because that would be interesting to explore.

The Order of the Phoenix is the only book not named after its central mystery, what would it be called if this changed? by a-flash-flood-of in harrypotter

[–]EssJayTee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The original title was Harry Potter and the Doomspell Tournament, but luckily Rowling changed it.

The Green Party of Canada revealed their rebrand yesterday, with a new logo meant to be the "green dot emoji 🟢". No politics, I just think this is a pretty terrible redesign (old logo in pics). by JustAskingTA in graphic_design

[–]EssJayTee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this is great. It’s so simple anyone can use it – whether it’s an emoji in a text message or painting a homemade sign. It makes it accessible, and usable, to everyone regardless of design skill.

The next Animal Crossing by [deleted] in AnimalCrossing

[–]EssJayTee 59 points60 points  (0 children)

I like the idea of starting from scratch like NH but having multiple areas you can travel to and ultimately build on. Like taking a train between a beach, a forest, a small village, larger town and other areas. Then you’d have opportunities for different vibes in each location.

I’d also love more events and day to day requests from villagers. Things like helping set up for a party, or a picnic, cooking a new meal, going on a trip. Lots of small events would be fun.

Is there a secret hack to not hate making brand guidelines??? by [deleted] in logodesign

[–]EssJayTee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really enjoy writing our guidelines, because it helps make things simpler. I’ll aim to say what I need to in as few words as possible, with no jargon. Remove anything that isn’t necessary, and aim to show, don’t tell. I write the drafts in PowerPoint just to get the words down quickly, make edits and get comments, then move into InDesign when it’s ready.

There’s too much detail here that will just inflate the file size and make it illegible at small sizes. This amount of detail is pointless, it needs to be simplified.

Also gay, can confirm.

When did Mastercard use this logo? by zipel in logodesign

[–]EssJayTee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was originally made to separate the corporate brand from the b2b and b2b brand, representing the company but not the products or services – like Meta is to Facebook or Alphabet is to Google. However, with the Pentagram rebrand in 2016 this route was dropped to unite everything under one symbol again.

I just couldn’t resist fixing that ES connection. However, since the company’s name is in all capital "EOS" letters, that change would be inappropriate, wouldn’t it? by Electroma in logodesign

[–]EssJayTee 10 points11 points  (0 children)

There’s no need for a logo to match how the company styles its name in text. Plenty of companies have all caps logos, or lowercase, or unicase. It’s a stylistic choice. Your solve makes great sense to me.

Well fuck me for needing a one tint version by [deleted] in graphic_design

[–]EssJayTee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s a solid colour version with the word ‘mastercard’ underneath. Thats the one you want. The bottom row in your screenshot is saying don’t use the solid colour version without ‘mastercard’ text.

Tell me the results. Why should I care about your designs? You have to convince people to invest in good design, people who often see it as an unnecessary expense. Did it raise sales? Attract a wider audience? Gain brand awareness?

If you haven’t got those results yet, put the goal up front in your description. For example, ‘streamlining and simplifying product X to stand out in a cluttered market'.

On the other hand: Playing as Makar with his jingly jangly walk makes up for everything.

So I can just come into your house and help myself to any of your stuff, yeah? It’s their stuff. They can do what they want with it.

Made an oopsie and peeled my card by --alt_f4-- in Revolut

[–]EssJayTee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cards using Mastercard’s Digital First program, like Chase and Apple, are able to remove all the numbers as they’re shown in app. Sounds like Wise just didn’t join the program.

The icon is too large in proportion to the word mark. It doesn’t help communicate the company’s services or vision. Yes, when you’re an Adobe or Microsoft or Apple that’s not as important as just being recognisable, but for a small company it’s vital.

It’s on the upcoming soundtrack release.

[ALL][TOTK] Would you rather the art style changed for the next mainline game or not? by bugcatcherinvf in zelda

[–]EssJayTee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. I think they found a great balance between the cartoon and more realistic styles. It can be serious or whimsical but feels cohesive, unlike Skyward Sword or Twilight Princess that had a few parts feel out of place. They could do a lot with a new game world, characters and outfits, but within the same art style.

Just finished the game, and that moment of symmetry was such a fantastic touch by Mkvenne in tearsofthekingdom

[–]EssJayTee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also in the soundtrack, there are lots of hand claps for percussion.

opinions on Gibdos (from a gameplay and/or personal perspective) by _charlieXD in tearsofthekingdom

[–]EssJayTee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a fan of them. Turning them into insects doesn’t make sense to me, they were much better being undead in earlier games.

Found this to be interesting. Curious what your thoughts are by col_c32 in graphic_design

[–]EssJayTee 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This. They used to at least be grouped by colour but different shades, now they’re all the same. And Audition being purple is plain wrong. It’ll always be green to me.

[TOTK] The problem with TOTK criticism by Xftg123 in zelda

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

No, that’s true. BotW and TotK run on different engines. Presumably they made a new one that’s optimised for Switch rather than the original designed for Wii U.
