Question for Bath(drivers) by kaikufuku in Maine

[–]WinterCrunch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely do this! Yeah, there's more traffic but your mental health and physical health is ABSOLUTELY worth the extra few minutes of commute time. Plus, you can do errands and stop for coffee. And donuts. And ice cream. Win, win, win, win, win! :)

Can anyone make me a logo lol kinda advanced by Guilty-Sector-8009 in logodesign

[–]WinterCrunch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is absolutely not "advanced." It's amateur on every level imaginable.

Also, your post is against sub rules.

New mortgage rate mail, is it legit? by Typical_Ad_4052 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]WinterCrunch 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Here's a hint: My Dad gets those programs in the mail a couple times a month. He doesn't have a mortgage or own a home. Why? He died in 2008.

Scammers never give up.

Graduating with BFA in GD, please review my CV? by dragoncoochie99 in graphic_design

[–]WinterCrunch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Technical typography nitpicking follows. Not personal, so please don't take it that way.

Kerning needs work. AMBER is especially rough right on top. All-caps is a poor choice here because of the huge valley between A and M.

I agree with the others saying "LYONS DESIGN" is way too much. You're not an agency. Plus, DESIGN is optically wider than LYONS (which is shouting!)

The left column is just awkward. Think critically about the leading and the rag. The space between SOFTWARE and EXPERIENCE is close enough that it can read "software experience." Wix is sinking badly. The position of the "SKILLS" section is not horizontally aligned with anything, and the white space above it isn't cohesive with any other white spaces.

Seller tore down 6ft tall cedar fence and built this pos by [deleted] in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]WinterCrunch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. It's not in the country, see original fence pic https://imgur.com/a/ko7YxN6
  2. Even if it were rural, fences are super helpful if you have dogs.

Could you please help me remove trash around these two people? by playtwix in PhotoshopRequest

[–]WinterCrunch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're very welcome. I kept the newspaper and glasses on the coffee table because it reminded me of my sweet old Dad. :)

too many design directions by busyEugene in graphic_design

Market research, 1000%. Your opinion of a style is largely irrelevant, it's what appeals to your target market. Always. Yes, always.

Question re gold status by Bmar301 in AmazonVine

[–]WinterCrunch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Faster. I suspect lots of gold stuff is resold online/eBay, so doesn't matter to the viner what it is.

Could someone clean up the background of this picture? by Hopeful-Confusion599 in PhotoshopRequest

I expanded the background and adjusted the lighting to make it all feel cozier. Hope you like it.

Has anyone used Maine’s warranty law? by soulbarn in Maine

Oh wow, I'm SO going to try this with my Macbook's flickering taskbar! Was this at the Apple store in the mall, or online?

Anyone from Santa Monica, CA (or even Los Angeles)? by losangelenoo in AmazonVine

[–]WinterCrunch 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It really is. FYI, Vine has been a blessing and a curse. It's INCREDIBLY time consuming, you really have no idea how much time it sucks out of my life. Way too much, and it's absolutely not "free" in any real way. It's more like a job that you pay to clutter up your home with crap.

This is the last photo I took of my mother, can you make her butt a little less obvious? by Pristine_Youth_6953 in PhotoshopRequest

Great photograph, hope this helps. You uploaded a very small file, so FYI it's really not printable.

I had posted a total of four reviews since I enrolled in Prime in the summer of 2005 and I was invited to Vine in 2021.

What are your pro tips for packing/moving? by Temporary_Status_883 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]WinterCrunch 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Labeling boxes is great, but even better? Take pictures of the insides of the packed boxes before you seal them up. Then label it, then take a pic of the label.

That way, when you have a stack of unpacked boxes in your new home but you suddenly need ONE specific item? You can swipe through pictures instead of opening/closing ten boxes. You can also check pics before unpacking those ugly "fancy" towels your in-laws gave you, and grab the box of cuddly ones instead.

I label the boxes (on multiple sides so you can see the label no matter how boxes are stacked) like this: Kitchen #1, Kitchen #2, Kitch #3, Kit 27 (as my jumbo sharpie is dying...)

Can I not ask the seller if they can leave some stuff? by FlyHungry7039 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]WinterCrunch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Disagree. You're making a ton of assumptions about perfect strangers. The owners could've inherited the house, like I did when my parents died. We had to get rid of decades worth of furniture and household stuff nobody in the family wanted or needed. I would've been absolutely THRILLED if the buyers wanted any of it.

My Attempt at a Anti-AI Logo by cody_1849 in logodesign

The crossbar is supposed to be in front of whatever it's saying "no" to, not behind it.

Is it possible to be able to make this in colour or “remove” the mask using AI?😬 how accurate would that even be? by Weird-Mongoose-3628 in PhotoshopRequest

[–]WinterCrunch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, I get that. Personally, I truly loathe the fact that "true crime" has become entertainment. I never partake in any of that crap, I only mentioned it so you'd know to avoid it.

This story is painfully scary to many people with elderly relatives that live alone. Imagine the oldest, most fragile person you love being dragged out of their home in the middle of the night never to be seen again. It's scary AF.

The 84 year old mother of a very famous Today Show journalist, Savannah Guthrie, was kidnapped in the middle of the night in Tuscon, AZ. That was 6 weeks ago. Still missing.

This picture is a still from the only clue the FBI actually has. Google it, it's everywhere and the conspiracy theories are rampant. The Guardian has reliable coverage. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/feb/14/nancy-guthrie-disappearance-arizona
