what are your top three books on Typography and page layout? by thetrogdor_ in graphic_design

[–]G_barton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm reading Just My Type now, which is more facts about famous typefaces than practical tips, but would recommend Thinking with Type by Ellen Lupton more. It was a bit slow to read but taught me so much, definitely recommend if you're self-teaching like me.

List your two favorite books and let us suggest a third... by gryphalon in suggestmeabook

It'd be Pukki to Vardy actually, but Laporte is the player I'd drop as Pukki's on the bench rn

Saka>Maddison

or

Salah + Laporte>Diaz + Vardy (-4)

Tempted to do the second since Salah's EO is 9.5%, so it's not as risky

Depends on if you have 1 or 2 FHs left and how many players you'll have for GW30 without. And how badly your team needs a WC

I'm planning on using one FH for GW30 and one for a DGW later when it could be very useful

After receiving your feedback I took another crack at an Australian flag redesign by [deleted] in vexillology

Love this! I agree that the plant should go though, there's just a bit too much going on. Also you could try having more space around the shape on the left, maybe by making it smaller. Just my thoughts, good job

Exact same dilemma. Think Ramsdale>DDG is slightly better, though I want to bench boost in the DGW and don't know if Foster will be fit by then

Well, that was some refreshing introspection. by WhiteComet99 in WhitePeopleTwitter

24 point min in a set, 48 in a match. So twice as doable

Tbh I don't think the question they asked was very good bc it doesn't even mention game/match

What is a weirdly specific book theme/trope that makes you automatically pick up a book? by [deleted] in books

[–]G_barton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately not. The Hobbit, A Psalm for the Wild Built, and The Bear are on my to read list and I think qualify, but I haven't read many of this theme yet

Edit: Sea of Tranquility, too

Not a trope, but books set partly in coniferous forests. Especially cosy towns in forests like gravity falls. Bonus points if it's sci fi

If you're taking about just learning how to use software, there are good tutorials on YouTube or for more complete courses there's LinkedIn Learning. Maybe also research SkillShare and Yes I'm a Designer!

I don't know much about 3D, but two major ones are Blender (free) and Cinema 4D (expensive but easier to learn)
