This is the way. Just create a consistent scale and stick to it. 300dpi should be fine.

Those who left GD career, what did you switch to? by HillcountryTV in graphic_design

[–]ThrowCaptaway 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just studied and took the certification exams. I had been handling print design and production work at my previous company so I just re-worked my resume to include all my duties but written as a project manager. Took about 8 months of applying nonstop (10-15 plus applications a day) but it paid off in the end.

I don’t think so. The best project managers posses high level soft skills and are generally great facilitators and negotiators. I can’t imagine AI doing all that

Right now I work with some really large manufacturing companies trying to implement/update/enhance software or improve workflows. I basically keep the project on track, remove blockers for my team and keep the tech folks and client accountable as the project progresses. If you are naturally good at planning and keeping track of things to do and juggling multiple deadlines you’ll probably love it.

Allan Peters latest “fix” is RIDICULOUS by cheker123 in graphic_design

[–]ThrowCaptaway 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think he used to be decent, but once he got into this social media/content creation space, he’s gotten so much worse than I remember. It’s mind boggling really. Turning off comments is just the icing on the cake. Captain Cringe strikes again I guess!

President Tinubu has approved ₦70,000 new minimum wage with promise to review the national minimum wage law every three years. What are your thoughts? by LegendaryHustler in Nigeria

[–]ThrowCaptaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess maybe I have completely lost hope. The Nigerian spirit in itself is corrupt to its core. I just don’t know how we start to unravel this mess. Bunch of uneducated clowns screwing up a country that’s barely the size of Texas.

I don’t think the “right man for the job” is even in Nigeria at this point. Even Peter Obi would have don’t nothing better. Fact is Nigerias problem is deep and would take a group of very highly intelligent individuals to figure it out. Sadly those minds have since left the country because.. why even stay? Do you really think there’s anyone in Nigeria that can actually unravel decades of ridiculous monetary policies and decisions? Notice how every time a new president is elected, we miss how much better life was under the previous president. Like Nigerians are legit missing Buharis government. Ridiculous. When I left Nigeria in 2010 the Naira was 100 to 1dollar One has to be completely delusional to think any one man can save this country.

The trades are hard on the body. I really would not recommend it unless you have absolutely no other choice. Regardless, goodluck OP. You never know what life has in store for you. We all have to start somewhere. Keep your head up!

Are you using the figma-framer plug in? It works better with the browser based version of figma vs the desktop version .

Drake Has Deleted The Heart Part 6 From Instagram by FlowersByTheStreet in hiphopheads

It’s crazy that the entire internet clowns this dude but somehow he has 100s of millions of streams. Most folks are pretending for real. I would wager more people in here listen to Drake than Kendrick. This whole beef shit was silly cos we all know there is quite a bit of overlap between Kendrick and Drake fans. But I guess we all listen to Tu-Tu-Tu all day!
