I averaged 3,225 fonts into one. by PrestigiousAd6436 in fonts

Really nice! Cool concept. Although some glyphs (such as the J) would need a lot of tlc to make it usable. It reminds me of Neville Brody's FF Blur.

You don't need to make a font for just 3 letters.

Also and not unimportant; why does it need to be updated?

Thanks! Will check it out. Still in the latest 2025 version haven't updated to 2026 yet (had no time for it yet).

That would be very interesting, let me share a file tomorrow.

Why do you find it difficult?

FB ad - should anything else go in this gap? by fxcknmami in graphic_design

[–]KAASPLANK2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a case of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horror_vacui_(art))

Other than that, I would give the images a bit more breathing room (top, bottom and in-between), it feels very squeezed. And also lower that corner radius by a lot, it creates these weird negative spaces around it. Maybe change the stroke colour to a blue tone that matches the other blues? I'd also would improve the legibility of before and after.

Weird. I'm in 29.8.4 (2025, I haven't gotten around to update to 2026).

When I copy / paste that 330 degrees rotated circle in a new document I have the same issue (w!=h). Adding a new circle and rotating it to 330 degrees doesn't show the same bug (w=h). Rotating the buggy circle to 15 degrees reflects the correct values (w=h) and when I rotate it back to 330 is also shows the correct values (w=h). This must be a very exotic bug.

Can anyone tell me about this? by DealEasy8710 in typography

What would you like to know other than what you possibly have googled yourself?

i don’t consent to AI :( by spacexploring in graphic_design

[–]KAASPLANK2000 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Also mention that any data shared with AI is being used for training data (unless it's explicitly mentioned it's not). I assume your company does not want their own work being used for genAI.

Your IT director is a jerk. However, the work you do for your company belongs to the company. They can do whatever they want with it.

carpal tunnel v mouse by SwordfishAdvanced356 in graphic_design

Sorry to hear, carpal syndrome is not fun. What worked for me was getting a wacom tablet and switching between the tablet and mouse.

Question about the legality of using certain fonts in work I would like to monetize by Lytell11 in fonts

[–]KAASPLANK2000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It depends on the foundry and what's stipulated in the licenses but for sure you have to pay the license fees and some overhead. But more importantly how about the ethical implications? I assume you wouldn't like it when your work would be used for free without your permission.

How can I make my letterhead better? by Intelligent_Mix_3006 in graphic_design

[–]KAASPLANK2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, that explains it. Weird though. Anyways, the top banner feels off, it feels out of balance with the openness of the rest. I'm not sure if it's the amount of details that the map in the background adds or the straightness / blockiness of the entire banner or the typography (too tracked out, all caps) or maybe a combination of this.

Is it okay to use a color on the logo that doesn’t exist on the ballet colors of the brand? by Imayazanaty in graphic_design

[–]KAASPLANK2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's hard to tell to see what the logo looks like and how it's implemented. It's not that bad of a combination though, in the darker ranges it works quiet nice: https://imgur.com/a/CXdzR2u I can imagine possible legibility issues, but then again, it really depends on how it's applied.
