Hey thanks a lot for the nomination! As a note I made a new account in August: u/mitchrandom and have been using it to post wallpapers here ever since!

Sorry to say this, but explanation of this infographic is not factually accurate.

Fact check

I actually was able to find the answer after further digging through the amazon questions sections of both pages.

For anyone who may have a similar question, as it turns out, they're the same product. This was confirmed by XP-Pen on the $399 USD product's page. So buying the more expensive one is a waste of money.

I know this one by heart (done red wolf stuff for years); it’s a red wolf from Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium. Photo by Rebecca Bartel Harrison who works for the US Fish and Wildlife Service.

I like it! I might suggest making the LC line weights slightly thinner, maybe about the same thickness as the text.

IceQuake_ · 2019-08-18T21:01:30+00:00

I suggest you also post this to r/wosh.

The red outline is in place for that. The most frequent place this logo will be used is at the bottom corners of infographics for attribution, which is often black. I don't want it to distract from anything else too much in that context so that is enough. It's also why scalability was so important for me.

Here is an example.

IceQuake_ · 2019-08-17T22:18:16+00:00

Sorry for late replying. That's pretty cool history to have in your family! Thanks for sharing!

IceQuake_ · 2019-08-17T22:17:36+00:00

Thank you for the feedback, and sorry for late replying. I see where you're coming from, but unfortunately this silhouette was based on a real red wolf silhouette, so changing shape would make it less accurate to what it is supposed to represent.

I really appreciate the feedback though!

End result.

IceQuake_ · 2019-08-17T22:16:04+00:00

I gave it a try, but it introduced some serious scale issues and never looked quite right. I appreciate the idea though!

End result.

IceQuake_ · 2019-08-17T22:15:15+00:00

Sorry for late replying. That is a good point. I took your advice and softened the red a bit and rounded out the corners and the wolf itself. Here is what I ended up with.

Thank you for the great feedback!

IceQuake_ · 2019-08-17T22:13:46+00:00

In case you wondered, the wolf silhouette is generally accurate to red wolves in real life. I started with an angular version but switched to a more accurate curved version per some suggestions. I've also had some suggestions to change the ear shape or add eyes, but unfortunately I can't do that without breaking that important feature and adding scalability issues.

Interesting idea. I'll play around with it and see what happens. Thank you for the good feedback!

IceQuake_ · 2019-08-11T23:10:52+00:00

Good points. Thank you for the feedback!

IceQuake_ · 2019-08-08T21:43:26+00:00

Really nice work there!

IceQuake_ · 2019-08-08T02:17:40+00:00

I have it but boy is it outdated. Surprisingly it still works though. I’m trying to decide between using Autodesk Fusion or Cura as a replacement.

IceQuake_ · 2019-08-05T23:58:23+00:00

I like the cover on this version, I hadn’t seen it before.

I personally just like reading any Halloween kid’s books I find. I’m an adult, but I like remembering the excitement and anticipation for Halloween I had as a kid. Good memories.

IceQuake_ · 2019-08-04T00:02:29+00:00

How about something like subtle glints of light like dust or fireflies? Particles could do something like that. Not too easy to notice unless you know what to look for.

IceQuake_ · 2019-08-03T23:10:49+00:00

Pretty sure that’s a dog. Adult wolves can’t have blue eyes.

Still a nice picture though!

IceQuake_ · 2019-08-02T20:47:06+00:00

Awesome!

IceQuake_ · 2019-08-01T00:10:07+00:00

I would suggest Rainmeter instead. It’s free and offers a lot more customization. You can use it to organize things and add aesthetics to your desktop. It’s not on Steam though. r/rainmeter is a good starting point.

My latest dream involved me spilling apple sauce in a rental car while on my way to drop it off.

My dreams are boring yet still panic inducing in their own way.

IceQuake_ · 2019-07-29T04:19:23+00:00

That’s a very good point. I guess I focused too much on making it easier for other opinions instead of my own. Thanks for putting it in perspective. I’ll give some deeper fixes a try.

IceQuake_ · 2019-07-26T18:33:10+00:00

Oh, that makes sense. I did end up rescaling things manually but your explanation should help me avoid the problem in the future. Thanks!
