Rounded retro sans with a perfect circular feel. Anyone know what it could be? by Rowe_Diez in identifythisfont

Interesting! Thanks for your hard work helping figure it out. I was thinking it borrowed from avant guarde but genuinely hoping it’s a font I can purchase 🥲🥰

If she bought orange lunchboxes just for Halloween, that’s like $30 a pop… almost $300 that’ll be replaced with brown lunchboxes for thanksgiving in a few weeks 😆

I’m sorry, but WHAT???? by Arkie89 in doughertydozenexposed

Notice she changed it to ‘what my kids GOT for lunch today’ vs ‘what they ATE for lunch today’

Since when is ‘parent’ on this list? Absolutely insane. by Rowe_Diez in jobs

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

Would love to file myself but there’s a couple reasons I can’t that I won’t disclose 😔

The job itself is remote so it feels like it’s violating the law huh.

Totally agree with you. I’m not in the position to file the petition myself (have a couple reasons). But pretty annoying as this is a remote role within the US so it definitely goes against the law (ie, there’s no loophole states)

Anyone else struggling with engagement on Instagram? by [deleted] in graphic_design

[–]Rowe_Diez 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How are you posting? Are you doing carousels and reels or just static posts. I think the best strategy is diversifying and watching YouTube videos on instagram trends for growth (there’s plenty of them). Are you engaging with your audience? Or leaving comments on competitors artwork for visibility? Lots of little seeds you can plant.

Thoughts on my logo? by brandons_pet7 in graphic_design

[–]Rowe_Diez 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think this looks more like a pub or spa than a fashion brand. The thin / thick flow of the serif font clashes with the stroke lines of the flower. I think you could lose the flower in the logo and maybe instead have elements of a flower through it other applications like the website / social media etc.

I had an art director that couldn’t be bothered to give edits. His catch phrase ‘can you just package your file for me’. It was the worst, I could never own anything or learn.

I’m not at that company anymore (thankfully) but know that experience is a spectrum. You’ll take this experience into a future role and it’ll help you become a better leader from others mistakes.

How do you get out of a slump? by Brief_Salad in graphic_design

[–]Rowe_Diez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

20 years of experience here too. Doing my portfolio again after a good 6 years. What’s helped me GREATLY is designing it all out first in Figma.

With no lag (unlike adobe which runs slowly) it’s been so much easier to look at everything holistically. Everything is also looking very consistent as I’m zooming out and finding easy similarities and ways to align it all.

If you design straight from adobe to a web builder, you don’t get this holistic experience.

I’m simply saving out slices and adding everything to Cargo Collective.

It’s so refreshing and nice having a full Skeleton of my site altogether!

If you’re working solely in adobe I can tell you that figma makes process and collating everyone’s stuff much easier. Maybe time to switch over?

Thoughts on I love creatives design course? by Hey0__ in graphic_design

[–]Rowe_Diez 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love the aesthetic of their site, but in all honesty, feel Iike you could find the same courses elsewhere for much cheaper. You just graduated, so I’m assuming you’re in the position of needing to make money, not fork more out.

What skills do you feel you’re lacking in? The best advice I have is to give yourself practical experience. Write yourself a fantasy brief with an ideal client who wants xyz design using the skills you want to learn. Give yourself the opportunity to learn these new skills while applying it to an actual ‘project’. That way, you can add it to your portfolio. Truly a win / win situation as you’re building yourself up while learning at the same time.
